    Summary

    Damian is sixteen, nearly seventeen, when Talia sends the Heretic to kill him. This shouldn't change anything but it does (it just doesn't change enough).

    --

    Two weeks and three days before Damian is brutally murdered, he sits on the edge of a rooftop in Crime Alley with his brothers, sharing a bottle of champagne between the four of them. Richard has just told them that Barbara is expecting, that Richard is going to be a dad, so they’re celebrating. He feels content here, on the edge of a rooftop in the darkest part of Gotham, with his brothers' bickering voices around him. Damian is sixteen, nearly seventeen, and he thinks he has his whole life ahead of him.
