Summary
“Um,” asks the little voice at the other end of the phone, “are you Selina?”
Selina pulls the phone away from her face to check the screen again, making sure that she’s not going crazy. No, the phone calling her is definitely Batman’s.
“What,” she says, “the hell?”

Summary
Damian is the last one standing on patrol tonight. This should be something he's prepared for, but...nobody taught him how to drive the car, and he's miles from home with an unconscious Batman on his back.
(Because what he really needed, tonight, was another test of his right to be here.)

Summary

Enter Stephanie, whose new name isn't the only secret she's keeping.

Summary
It’s been two months since Bruce has allowed Tim to go out as Robin, and every night Bruce patrols the city alone. Gotham’s shadowy knight is stalking the streets for a vigilante that seems to forethink his every move, and at the same time, dead ends; false trails; and strange, macabre clues haunt both the Batman and Bruce Wayne.
Meanwhile, Tim drinks stupid protein shakes made with milk from Wisconsin cows and fails online Precalculus. They are, Tim thinks bitterly, right back where they started.
(But there is a difference between waiting and biding your time.)
Title taken from “To an Athlete Dying Young” by A.E. Housman.

Summary
Tim is almost-finally training to be Robin, kind of. (Emphasis on the “almost”). (Emphasis on the “kind of”).
He’s been sparring with the Hood, Gotham’s newest vigilante, but Hood doesn’t know Tim as Tim, he knows Tim as Jason, but Tim knows that Hood is actually Jason, and honestly, Tim’s just writing the rules up as he goes.
And the stakes are only getting higher. After tragedy strikes the Drakes, Tim ends up in Bruce’s care just as a new series of gruesome crimes plagues Gotham. More than ever, Bruce is determined to keep Tim out of it.
Tim does not keep out of it. (And there are consequences to starting fights you don’t know how to win).
Title taken from “To an Athlete Dying Young” by A.E. Housman.
