Summary
“Dick,” Bruce starts. His hair is messier than what Dick has seen in a long time, he doesn’t look like he’s changed out of his morning clothes, and the look in his eyes is almost frantic. “This… this is Damian.”
Dick blinks at the baby, an actual infant, in Bruce’s arms. He can’t be over a year old, and yet his gaze seems to pierce Dick with its intensity.
OR
Damian is barely a year old when Talia drops him off on Bruce's doorstep. The way he squirms his way to the hearts of his family surprises everyone.

Summary
“Think of it this way,” father said, when he saw Damian’s confusion again. “Punishments and discipline are to make lessons stick, right?”
“I suppose,” Damian agreed tentatively. His grandfather wouldn’t say that. His grandfather would say what he always said: Pain is a god. Its rule is absolute. It shows us the way, it separates right from wrong, weak from strong.
It is grandfather's voice that wins out, later, when his skin splits under his own blade. Pain is a god. And he has been well-educated in all ways of worship.

Summary
Damian is alone and afraid in his father's house. He's become a hidden person within the manor. But he's able to find some small relief in hidden places.
A character study on Damian Wayne. How he sees the world and his tenuous connection to a family he can't understand. Set very early into Damian's stay with the bat family. This one's painful.

Summary
He’s—as careful as he knows how to be. Not killing someone is, comparatively, easy to track. How can Damian know he’s not manipulating someone unless his actions are as cold, as flatly featureless as they possibly can be? How many times did Talia trick him into staying his hand by feigning pain? How many times did she redirect him away from his wandering wants by showing hurt at his potential rejection? Displays are a bid for control whether he means them to be or not. (Emotions are a weapon, and he leaves his weapons sheathed until they’re absolutely necessary these days.)
