    Summary

    To save the world from utter destruction, a person's memory was required. Not their memories, but everyone else's memories of them. They would be fundamentally erased from existence. Like they were never even there at all.

    The moment Superman told them that, his face sunken and his eyes hollow, Damian knew it had to be him.

    Or:

    Damian Wayne is forgotten by the entire world. "Staring over" is more painful then he imagined.

    [A guide with a... questionable success rate]

    Summary

    Damian looks past his reflection, and he presses his thumb against the glass. It thrums as it recognizes the print, the glass lowering to reveal its contents. As if viewing someone else, he watches as his hands reach out, grabbing the cowl off the mannequin, and he watches as he holds it up, his eyes starting to burn as he looks over the rough leather and the neat stitches and the places where stains have come out, and…

    And the cowl shouldn’t fit him.

    But it will.

    Summary

    Damian Al Ghul was born for greatness. But he doesn’t want to be great; he wants to grow old. That might be his most shameful secret, one that he would fall on his own blade before saying aloud, before breathing it to life.

    The son of Talia Al Ghul, of Batman, the grandson of Ra’s Al Ghul, and heir to two empires- wishes to stop fighting.

    -

    Two and half months before he dies - young and bloody - Damian Wayne wants to live. He wants to stop fighting. (To be born great is to be born into a tragedy.)

    Summary

    Jason doesn't think anything of it. It starts as innocently as it usually does.

    "What is that?"

    "Glow in the dark stars," he says, off-handedly. "You never seen them, kid?"

    "No." He frowns. "What is their purpose?"

    "They're for kids that're scared of the dark sometimes. I dunno. Or just for decoration. They're cool, y'know? They light up in the dark, kids find shit like that entertaining." He shrugs. "I always wanted some, but Mom could never afford to buy them."

    Or: how a conversation about glow in the dark stars leads to Damian showing affection for the first time, and Jason's love of the stars. Based off a Pinterest post.

    Summary

    He wasn’t even there, and Damian wasn’t sure why he was surprised. Even when he’d hesitantly extended the invitation, he’d known better than to count it as a sure thing. It wasn’t like the nature of his father’s job didn’t result in it’s fair share of unpredictable emergencies. It was just that if one had come up, he would likely have been called in to assist as Robin. So when Bruce didn’t show, he’d waited eagerly for the alert, already planning his excuses.

    The makeshift gallery was nearly empty of families now, and Damian was fiercely avoiding coming to terms with the fact that his father had just decided not to come.
