    Summary

    This guide outlines standard operating procedures for all field operatives: Robin(s), temporary Justice League liaisons, and other related vigilantes. The exceptions to this guide are limited: only Batman and Oracle (henceforth referred to a ‘B’ and ‘Oracle’ for the purposes of this guide) may operate independently of the outlined rules, and only for independent missions. Disregarding or diverting from these rules may result in serious bodily harm, mental distress, or, in the most serious of incidents, death.

    Follow these instructions to the letter, as written, exactly as written. Memorize this guide and review it often in your mind. A forgotten or added word can mean the difference between life or death. The entity of Gotham does not believe in luck. Neither should you. Nonetheless, continue with the assumption that you have it. You will need it.

    Summary

    “Why are you still in your suit?”

    Tim pried one weary eyelid open to stare at Kon looming over him. His curls were damp. A playtendo console Bart had gotten bored of was clutched in one hand. He wore flannel pajama pants and a sweatshirt that had belonged to Wally once before being lent to Dick then stolen by Tim then reappropriated by Kon.

    A ragged sigh rushed out of Tim and even that hurt. Breathing hurt. Blinking hurt. “I can’t get it off,” he admitted, defeated.

    Summary

    Tim Drake is a solitary creature, whether by necessity or by natural predisposition. But he’s good at being alone. He’s learned to enjoy his own company, to take solace in his own cognizance. Aided by the brisk air of Gotham’s night air and a thrilling sense of independence, Tim learns that some things feel more special when you get to keep them for yourself. Unaccompanied walks down the school halls and singular movie tickets and dinners-for-one aren’t so bad when he can entertain himself with his own thoughts.

    Tim has become so good at being alone, he can almost pretend he isn’t desperate for the unconditional love and companionship that a soulmate would guarantee.

    It would be nice, Tim thinks, to have someone in his life who actually wants him. Someone who won’t leave every chance they get. Someone who enjoys his presence instead of merely tolerating it. Someone for whom he isn’t an obligation.

    Still his wrist remains blank.

    Until it doesn't.

    Summary

    He waited until Wayne had downed half the glass, satisfied with the end result. It took a moment for his brain to realize that the clear spring water had come away from Wayne’s mouth with red spiderwebbing through it, blood sinking to the bottom of the glass and expanding in the remaining water.

    Or, the one where Bruce Wayne, CEO of Wayne Enterprises, hides out in Lucius Fox's office, and Lucius lets him.

    Summary

    Clark grimaced. “I’m not sure it’s that straightforward in Gotham. There’s -- things are different here."

    “Hnn.” That was a dangerous sound, especially when it was coming from Ollie. “So when Batman forced Robin through Joker Gas as training, that was just dandy? And when the kid showed up on the Watchtower a month later with six broken bones because Batman abandoned him in Gotham for a night -- that wasn’t straightforward to you?”
