Summary
“Great. Now that you two are awake, we can begin.”
They open their eyes to look at him, but he isn’t very concerned with the acidity pointed towards him. After all, he’s gotten used to Batman’s and the kid’s- well Robin’s- just doesn’t hit as hard when he’s used to the more personal anger of the previous one.
He should check on Nightwing as he’s calling himself these days.
Opening the letter that showed up on his pillowcase this morning, seriously what the fuck? How did someone break into his phone AND his place?
Maybe he’s getting old. Or complacent.
He starts reading off the letter, “Good evening. You don’t know me, but I know you.” Creepy. Nice. He ignores the confused looks from the two in front of him. “This isn’t from me, obviously,” he clarifies, which clears up the confusion even if not the anger.
Slade just shrugs. “I’ve hired Deathstroke, AKA Slade Wilson, to kidnap you without harm and take you to Warehouse 14 by the East Docks. He is being paid to read this letter to you, and then after he will leave, again, without any intentions of harm.” The kid looks at him dubiously, but Slade doesn’t have much of a response.
That is what he’s being paid for after all.

Summary
Letting his body go tense with cold anger for the first time in his life, Tim takes the stairs to the top to speak with Barbara.
“Hey Tim! What’d ya need?” She greets him while she’s staring at her screens, presumably guiding the Birds of Prey on something or something else equally important in her very busy, too-filled schedule.
Ignoring her, he grabs the comfiest chair in the room and starts loudly moving it to be next to her station, while gathering the comfiest blankets he can find.
Sitting down in his newly acquired chair, he finally looks up to meet her confused eyes with determined fury in his own.
“I’m going to make this very clear. This is a call for attention. I need an hour or two of your undivided attention. I need you to listen to me, and not talk until the end. I need you to do this or I’m going to do something drastic like run away or burn down a building. Can you do this for me?”
Her widened eyes do not make any change to his composed demeanor and stern eyes.
The thing about never asking for something is that when you finally do, the smart people will listen.

Summary
“What are you going to do, Drake? Kill me? Like they’d ever accept you, then, why they’d think you’re even crazier than they did befo-'' he sneers before his eyes widen to the size of saucers as he was interrupted by the older boy in front of him.
“I declare this a Battle of Standings.”
Interrupted by the older boy in front of him in Royal League Dialect which is only known by the Head, his descendents, and direct council.
Tim stares at him with unblinking eyes before continuing.
“A Battle of Standings begins by one grasping and throwing their chosen opponent’s desired weapon to their desired opposition. By catching and moving into a defensive position, you chose to accept.”
Damian swallows and tries to calm his speeding heart.

Summary
In Tim’s haze of fire, he ends up with a thought that turns everything into ice.
It’s been a year since he came back with Bruce and he never got an apology.
So Tim walks up to his older brother who’s now taken a step backward with slightly widened eyes at the smile- the cold and very wide grin that’s taken place on Tim’s face very quickly, very suddenly -and he walks straight up to the man in front of him, puts his hands on his shoulders, and knees him straight in the dick.
Casually stepping over his older brother practically crying on the edge of the platform, and ignoring the gobsmacked look shared among Tam, the security guards, and most of the press who caught it all on camera, he walks over to wooden stand with the microphone and begins nonchalantly talking about the unfortunate mistake made by someone he doesn't care about in a division that’s so unimportant he was literally thinking about shutting it down a few weeks ago.
The questions asked by the press weren’t on topic at all.

Summary
"Rule number 1?"
"Presentation. You should never go somewhere without the foreknowledge and expertise of the appropriate appearance. Make-up, hair, clothes, and posture can make or break any situation."
Cupping his face and moving it around in a circular motion - he knows it's just to make him laugh instead of checking to find any imperfections like she's pretending it is - she smirks at him before nodding encouragingly and asking, "Rule number 2?"
"Strategy. Pick out your goal, and figure out exactly who and what you need to get there. Do so sparingly and efficiently."
Giving him a kiss on the nose and a warm smile, he allows his eyes to sparkle in a way that he knows only she could ever tell as he keeps the rest of his face emotionless and blank.
"And Rule number 3?"
Finally breaking the facade, he gives her a lopsided smirk as he leans into her hand sweetly, "Manipulation. Do whatever it takes, and be whoever you need to be to get the job done. After all," he pauses to share a smile and so they can say it together,
"Anyone outside me and mine are just obstacles to destroy and pawns to control."
