Summary
Dick Grayson has a secret.
For years, Deathstroke has been trying to recruit him as his apprentice. For years, Dick has said no. But after one mission too many, one life-or-death decision too many, one weight-of-the-world moment too many...
Dick finally says yes.
-----
Zatanna Zatara understands.
She's been carrying her own weight since her father became Doctor Fate's host. When Dick leaves the Team to train with Deathstroke, she makes her own choice...
To grow powerful enough that she'll never feel helpless again.
-----
The cost?
Exile from the Team, judgment from the League, and two years of operating in the gray areas that heroes pretend don't exist.
The reward?
Freedom, power, and fighting alongside each other every step of the way.
-----
Featuring: Slade as a surprisingly decent mentor, Constantine as his usual terrible influence self, Giovanni getting monthly weekends off from being Doctor Fate, Bruce trying to be less emotionally constipated, and the Bat Family and the Team slowly realizing that maybe Dick and Zee don't need saving after all.
-----
(The fic where Dick and Zee go rogue that no-one asked for!)

Summary
“Dick, did you really think we wouldn't celebrate your birthday?”
“You have no obligation to do so. Things haven't been great between us lately,” he added in the calmest voice he could muster.
“You're my son, Dick. Nothing..." Bruce began, but stopped, looking at Dick with uncertainty.
“What?” he asked with a mocking smile. “Nothing is going to change that?” he asked with feigned amusement. “Oh, but it already has, hasn't it, Batman?” He drew out the name.

Summary
“Jason?” Dick asked in awe.
“Jason you’re alive? How are you here?”
He stepped closer. Jason said nothing.
“Little Wing-“ he went in for a hug, but both arms passed right through him. Then he disappeared.
Then Jason was siting on his counter, this time in his bloody Robin uniform.
“Why didn’t you save me, Dick?”
"My panic's at the ceiling, but I'm face down on the carpet."

Three years ago, Nightwing was accused of a brutal murder he swears he didn’t commit. Institutionalized in Arkham Asylum after a highly public breakdown, Dick vanished from public life, his name reduced to whispers in shadowed corners. The Wayne's mourned the loss quietly, each member too fractured, too afraid, or too angry to face what had become of him.
But Dick didn’t die in Arkham. Not exactly.

The Space battleship Requiem needs a captain. There must *always* be a captain - whether they are willing or not for the forces beyond space do not rest. it is a neverending battle and Requiem has gone through a thousand captains (Avatars), each soul laying their own imprint upon the ship forged from a cold star, each soul breathing power into it and information rolling over to the next Avatar. Only those the Requiem deems fit to be their Avatar and the Requiem has found their newest Avatar on Earth....

Bruce Wayne and the JL have tried the League of Assassins and Shadows but *nothing*. The Batfamily haven't been the same since Dick's kidnapping and there were a lot of regrets from them all. During a Justice League meeting an unknown contact breaches their security and a video recording is broadcasted in the meeting room, an unfamiliar figure with spiked up white hair and a mask gives a little wave.
*"H-hey...long time no see...so this is a recording....-"*

Summary
“You look different than usual,”
“What?”
“Normally, you’re in your torn Robin uniform or some casual clothes,” Dick informed him. “Never seen you all grown up. Didn’t realize my brain could be this creative when it wanted.”
The idea that had started to form in Jason’s head wasn’t a pretty one and some part of him was glad.

What I did by Babs_Gray

Summary
"I offer you two choices, kid. You can stay here and keep sinking, until this city finishes devouring you and wasting your potential out of fear. Or you can come with me. I will train you as you should have been trained. I will make you stronger, faster, more lethal. Exploit what your father feared so much. But that I was always drawn to." Slade slowly wiped the water from Dick's face with his free hand.
Dick didn't remember when Slade put away his mask.
Dick felt a shiver run down his spine. He knew this was not a selfless act of charity. Slade Wilson never did anything without getting something in return. It was literally the description of being a mercenary.
"But there's 'But', isn't there?" He asked humorlessly. But trying to smile.
Well, here I bring the continuation of this series.
This time it's how Dick agreed to go with Slade.
If anyone wants to read this chronologically, they should start with this one, then with "Who they are and what they did," and finally, "Who I will never be and what you will never do."
I recommend reading the whole thing to make sense of it 😅

Summary
“Bruce, please, please, please.” Dick screamed, his voice hoarse from the misuse of his throat. His desperation was evident in his face, his body, and the way the chains that kept him bound jangled.
Bruce looked at him with an apology in his eyes and Dick knew his fate was sealed. Bruce looked away from Dick and looked at Slade.
"Alright. He for the hostages." Bruce said with a firm and serious voice.
