Summary
It was supposed to be an easy night. Bruce was gone for a few days, working on some League thing with Superman, and he asked Dick to hold down the fort for a couple days. “Just like old times,” he’d promised Damian as they’d suited up for patrol, just like when they were Batman and Robin together. Nightwing and Robin, now.
There were no big cases to work. No arms or drug deals, no trafficking rings, no gang wars, no Arkham escapees blowing up the city. It was supposed to be easy. But the problem with expecting things to be easy is complacency. And complacency sometimes means walking into a trap. A couple prepared goons later, and Nightwing and Robin are trussed up in a frigid, dimly lit warehouse.

Summary
But his vision is blurred as he slides down onto concrete, he can’t hear the heavy boots land next to him because all he can feel is the panic in his blood. He wants to run again. Trembling against the wall as his right leg gives out–the one sporting a bullet wound-even if it wasn’t technically an actual metal bullet rather a rubber one. But it had been too close and Hood aimed it just right.
Or
It was supposed to be an easy patrol, it should have been easy. But Tim's world come's crashing down as mind-controlled brothers break his heart and body. And he doesn't know how much more he can take.

Summary
Jason’s stomach churns, clenching painfully. He closes his eyes and hugs his pillow, trying not to whimper. It can’t be something he ate. Alfred would never be so careless, so the only other sensible explanation is that he’s sick.
Fuck.

Summary
Damian makes one mistake on a mission and decides the only acceptable response is to train harder, patrol longer, and sleep less.
The Batfamily disagrees.
Unfortunately, Damian is very stubborn, very determined, and very good at lying.
Or: a slow-burn Damian Wayne burnout fic featuring concerned siblings, worried parents, exhausted teenagers, and a Batfamily intervention that is probably long overdue.

Summary
Damian al Ghul was four years old when the League taught him that obedience meant survival.
They strapped him to a chair, flooded his nervous system with sonic conditioning, and rewired his mind until pain became instinct and fear became permanent.
By the time Batman finds him, Damian is no longer just traumatized — he is conditioned. Broken apart by sound, by compliance, by years of engineered terror.
Recovery is slow. Painful. Nonlinear.
The Batfamily learns how to care for a child who flinches at every noise, who believes punishment follows mistakes, who doesn't understand kindness because he's never been allowed to have it before.
And just when Damian finally starts believing he's safe—
The League activates the conditioning again.
