    Summary

    Damian Wayne was raised to lead, not to blend in.

    At seventeen, high school feels like a punishment he never trained for. He doesn’t fit in with his classmates, doesn’t care about popularity, and definitely doesn’t know how to handle teachers who think he’s just another difficult teenager. Every day feels exhausting. Every room feels wrong.

    Then he hears a garage band practicing in the music lab.

    Loud guitar. Crashing drums. Messy, early-2000s punk rock.

    The band is made up of four teens who don’t quite fit either, a passionate lead guitarist, a fierce drummer, a scruffy bassist, and a keyboardist who refuses to apologize for being different. They all have their own problems, their own baggage, their own reasons for wanting something more.

    For the first time since starting school, Damian doesn’t feel completely alone.

    And when staying starts to feel impossible, the idea of leaving together doesn’t seem so reckless.

    It feels like freedom.

    -or-

    Damian joins a garage band that ends up being the closest thing to belonging he's ever had.

    Summary

    You didn’t expect me to be someone you cared about. Damian finishes the thought for him, teeth gritting behind his closed lips. His skin is prickling with the pressure of being seen, recognized. It’s not what he wanted. It’s not what he asked for. And yet—when Grayson’s hand brushes his elbow again, steadying him gently as they walk down the fire escape, Damian doesn’t pull away. His instincts are screaming at him to shake the touch off. That’s just sympathy. Just pity.

    It doesn’t mean anything.

    He is just a civilian, Damian reminds himself harshly, over and over like a mantra. He does not matter. His affection does not matter. But the words lose their sharpness the longer Grayson looks at him like that—like Damian is someone, not something broken or dangerous. Not just another shadow in the night.

    Or,

    Damian al Ghul is sent to Gotham with a mission: earn the right to stand beside the Batman. He will not grovel for a place at his father's side like some desperate orphan—he will prove he belongs there. But, Officer Grayson refuses to let the wounded boy he keeps running into disappear into the dark.
