    Summary

    Flying back to Cherry Street, weaving reckless in the dark, it comes down to this: Dick is the only one of his siblings that Jason has any real claim on. Dick is the only one of that whole mess of victims to Batman's cult of self-immolation who belongs to Jason. Even more than that - Dick is the only person in the world who he shares a parent with, who knows what it meant to be the Robin to Batman of nearly ten years ago.

    It's just not the same anymore.

    So if Dick fucking kicks it, Jason's the only one left. Jason becomes an only child. Jason becomes the last of his kind. Jason becomes the sole keeper of that memory, of a brotherhood shared under a man who no longer exists. There is no way to replace Dick, because the world that they lived in together is gone, and can never give Jason a surrogate.

    The Red Hood pulls the thread on a mystery big enough to bridge the distance between two cities, two brothers: The plot they unravel is far deeper and darker than a garden-variety drug trafficking scheme. A story about siblingship, hauntings, and rivers.

    1. Ostium, osti(i): Latin noun, II Declension: Door, opening; (river) mouth; entrance (to the underworld).

    Summary

    “Are we going to climb back up?” Damian asks, testing his bounds.

    “No, Damian,” she says, and starts off walking, forcing him to come after her as the rope tugs taut. 

    “Are we doing another survivalist exercise?”

    “No,” she says. The air clouds with the word, just for a moment. “There shouldn’t be any crevasses, but if I start to fall, cut your rope immediately. Understood?”

    “Then I can’t stop your fall,” he argues. She gives him a look, just the briefest glance over her shoulder. “Understood.” They crunch on for a minute. “Navigation, then?”

    “No.”

    “Exercise or test?” he asks.

    “Neither.” They crunch on for a moment. “You should think of saving your breath, it’s a long way down.”

    That’s not an order, however, so he’s free to push. “So we’re leaving Kohe Hevad.” She doesn’t reply. Damian squirms for a moment, but there’s no way to turn his question into a guess, cut off its open end. “Where are we going?”

    “Gotham.”

    -

    Talia, Damian, and leaving the devil you know, the hell you've built, the life you've made your own.
