001. un: damian wayne. audio. ourpowers.

I'll keep this short and simple.

My name is Damian Wayne. If this has any meaning to you, I suggest you contact me before I feel the need contact you.

As for the rest of you, how many of you know how to fight? I don't mean a tussle in the school yard, I mean a fight for your life. If you don't, I suggest you learn. Fast.

( ever since his computer picked up the keyword wayne from that audio file, he'd been searching up the name through every means possible. damian wayne. there's dick grayson, jason todd, tim drake. and now, damian wayne.

it's that last name there that has him feeling... some way.

the searches through his laptop bring up hardly anything but he's not about to reply to the audio file. he's busy — pensive — and figures this is the one who he's been gently warned about. he's only just started to become accustomed to the whiplash he gets from the jasons whenever they interact with each other. he doesn't know if he can take a third on for that.

but.

he's out during the night. cape and cowl. because he is the night and all. plus, he's still looking for joker — for anything that can lead him to him. it's why he's on the rooftop of a relatively tall building near the park jason had given him about a kidnapping happening some months ago that had possibly been joker's doing. a trail that had gone cold, it seems, but. he's still there. watching. looking for anything that might give him something to go on. tucked into the shadows as he does. )

( he's become used to the others coming up on him like this. when he'd first found himself here in this place — in not gotham — they'd come for him the moment it had been discovered batman was here. again. curiosity, of course.

yet there's been one he hasn't yet come across despite being told there's another — that he'd need to be a little more careful with him if only because of how complicated it all is between them. it still being a mystery to him.

granted, when a different version of your father who also happens to be younger and is from a point in time before even taking on his first ward comes around, that alone is bound to make things complicated.

when he's not yet become hope or justice for the people of gotham, but still very much vengeance.

for a moment, it seems as if he doesn't see damian, staring down to the park instead. then, he finally speaks and his voice is low yet soft when he does. )


Finally decided to come around? ( a beat, a slow glance to him. ) Damian.

( he doesn't move from where he stands but he's very aware of where damian is. )

That what this is?

( because he knows the two ways this could go: the jason way or the tim and dick way. )

( no, he doesn't. the jasons already tire him out with that and make him even more of a recluse than he usually is.

another glance down to the park, he looks back over to damian. staring. seeing things there in his face that are... familiar. yet different. )


Not particularly.

( at that, he steps down off the ledge, boots heavy as he moves away from it, cape gently following after him. )

( blood son? a last name of wayne, a possible connection through blood... none of the others ever mentioned any sort of possibility as the one he's currently not trying to think about.

he's young — bruce is, that is. only been at this for two years now where he's become more batman than bruce wayne and still has yet to find his real footing in being gotham's so-called protector. there's still a lot of anger he keeps there inside him and working alongside those who aren't alfred or gordon is not anything he has much experience with. maybe that shows in the way he keeps his distance — in the way he eyes damian with suspicion and uncertainty. as if always assuming the worst of people. )


If you've come to preen over how much better you are, you can save it.

I'm not your old man.

( it's not said with any malice nor frustration that one might have over... everything, really. rather, it's more tired than anything else. )

Whatever you want to say, say it.
