    Summary

    The sun peeks through the gaps in the weaving of the half-closed curtains, illuminating Damian from behind: enough to darken his features, but not enough to obscure them, and it highlights the cowlick springing from Damian’s head as the wax he probably spread through his hair this morning loses its hold. His delicate face is scrunched up in concentration, sharp, dark eyebrows furrowed and mouth pouted; his posture is hunched, shoulders slightly pulled up, almost as if he wishes to hide his newest project from the world.
    Bruce takes the tiny notebook out of the inner pocket of his jacket before he realizes what he’s doing. He flips over to an empty page, clicks the pen twice, and starts sketching.

    Or,
    Bruce secretly draws Damian drawing, and Damian finds something that connects him to his father some more.

    Summary

    Damian knows about consequences. He knows about discipline. He knows punishment. Father is a fool for being so naïve when it comes to the real world.

    Summary

    “I know what you’re going to say. Poor little rich boy. But he -- really was, okay? At least I lost my dad when I was older. I had training to deal with everything. I had people helping me. He had nobody.”

    Summary

    Bruce needed looking after. He was smarter than most people gave him credit for (a low bar), but he got into more scrapes than any of Ollie’s other friends (a very high bar).
    Case in point, the man was currently slumped against the governor of somewhere or other, laughing uproariously, spilling champagne onto his own suit. Ollie frowned, lowering his glass. He knew Bruce’s real laugh, and this wasn’t it. It rarely was, in public. But this wasn’t even Bruce’s society laugh. It was too tense. Strained.

    Summary

    This was a cycle that he and Oliver had been going through since they’d graduated. They would both get caught up with work and go months without talking, but then they’d meet up at a charity event or gala and Oliver wouldn’t leave Bruce alone again for at least two months.

    Or,

    5 times Oliver vented to Bruce, and 1 time he confided in Batman
