Summary
Two weeks ago, Duke was a Robin, leading a gang of others like him against the rising tide of petty criminals looking to exploit Batman’s absence. That’s recently changed, when the Robins trained by Batman came back to Gotham to get a handle on the situation, with mixed results. The Robins as a gang were scattered, most of them dropping back into civilian life. Duke Thomas isn’t among them.
Nightwing tricked him during their last meeting, using his nervousness around heights against him. He takes to the rooftops to rectify that and, during one of his rooftop runs, comes across a strange girl surrounded in the street.

Summary
There is no backup for the Signal.
Duke reminds himself of this regularly, like a prayer through gritted teeth: there's no one to catch him if he slips, to replace him if he stops. So the Signal can't give up. Just can't, like an immutable law, an undeniable truth. He has to win every fight. There isn't any other option.
Duke Thomas makes himself invincible. Untouchable.
Then he loses.

Summary
What: Duke Thomas is on summer vacation. For reasons unfathomable, he finds himself in sunny Los Angeles in the company of an almost-relative, Bette, and her infamously green roommate. As for the flying kid in blue—he must be as in on the joke as the rest of them.
Where: The Signal is Gotham’s daylight protector and an Outsider and a dutiful son and everything is alright all the time. Flamebird has her costume on a hanger in the back of her closet, which she turns her head from when she readies for class. Beast Boy capes in a city that doesn’t quite care whether he lives, dies, or stars in his nineteenth commercial. Captain Marvel Jr. visits nearly too much, even though no other place makes Fawcett City more of a faraway dreamland.
When: It’s only for the summer.

This fic expands on elements of the still-developing Deadlock setting, as well as the respective characters' personal histories in order to facilitate character exploration.
Platonic fluff focus.

Summary
Living his life a lie to himself and the world, Duke Thomas himself doesn't understand how he ended up with the Batfamily.
Now he's trying to survive there, avoid becoming a villain, and avoid involving them in his affairs....
That's exactly how he got them involved in his affairs.
