Summary
On a rare night when all of the Batclan were in town and working together, they receive an unexpected visitor.
The visitor was Talia al Ghul, and she has some words for Bruce.
What's this about the Red Hood being her son? And what does she mean that Bruce killed him?
OR: After the batarang sliced Jason's neck, he decided to fake his death with the help of Talia. The best person to pin the blame on? The very same person that threw the batarang. It was about time someone brought down Bruce's kingdom, after all.
(Can be read as a standalone, but probably better to read the entire series to get an idea.)

Summary
If someone had told Jason a week ago that patching up the vigilante that roamed Hell's Kitchen would come back to bite him in the ass, he would have probably agreed with them. But he had been hoping that his ability to intimidate people would have eventually scared him off.
He didn't expect Daredevil to be like an annoying pest that kept coming back. And it probably didn't help that he fed the guy...
Regardless, the vigilante kept chipping at his walls with every visit. And for some reason, Jason let him.

Summary
It's not uncommon for Matt's old injuries to flare up during storms. He had heard that changes in barometric pressure from the shift in weather caused them, and had become intimately familiar with the aches in his back that never fully left after Midland Circle.
And usually, he was smart enough to go back inside before the rain started. But this time, he had lost track of time and was caught in the downpour. Crashing at Jason's until the rain let up seemed like a smart plan.
Matt should have realized he wasn't the only one suffering from old injuries.

Summary
The civilian persona Jason crafted was designed to be aloof and intimidating. Better to not form too many connections in case he needed to pack his bag and leave on short notice.
Too bad Karen, Matt, and Foggy didn't seem to get that memo. And too bad for Jason, they're stubborn enough to chip away at the brick wall he had carefully erected.
Damn those persistent bastards.
