Bruce could almost say that he loved it more than the arsenal of weapons the kid had in his room. It was just surprising how quickly he had gotten attached. A pretty thing that Damian had gotten attached to. It had some odd qualities to be sure but if Duke wasn’t worried about it the ‘egg’ was probably just that. From Tim’s initial findings, there wasn’t anything odd about the stone. So, Bruce, had low-key questioned his children for information that they hadn’t leaked during the dinner conversation. Magical artifacts could appear harmless at first only to grow in power and maliciousness later. Still, it was such an abrupt change that Bruce had looked into it that night of the dinner. It was rather cute how protective of it his youngest was. Damian had become very protective of his right side as of late, and now Bruce knew that was where he carried his ‘egg’. Partly because he loved to fight and also so that he could quickly gain control of a chaotic situation. Before, the eleven-year-old would be the first to go on the offensive. Since then, Damian began to fight differently while out on patrol. The change in his son seemed to happen about four months ago when he was finally let loose after his punishment. The bruised ego from the faceplant had done more damage than the actual blade. One that only required a few stitches and Jason was right as rain. A stab to the shoulder (which is rather concerning with how many important arteries and tendons were in that spot but, sadly, Damian knew what he was doing. Yet, even then, the attack had been controlled to just a single stab. So he was rather surprised when the opposite happened.ĭamian still threatened his other children or anyone who pushed his boundaries too far but he had only truly harmed someone once. Whatever violence was needed to end the threat before it could come back. Even if the crime had been minor and if not killing then maiming in some way. He took a lot of Jason’s tendencies of ending the threat for good instead of not killing. It was his method of execution that was the issue. So most times Damian was right when it came to detective work. The child was trained by the best of the best. It was a position that he hated to be in but also knew that it was required. He knew this and it hurt that Bruce felt the need to be so hard on his son in the first place. It would take a lot longer than that to curb the ideologies that the League had ingrained in the boy since birth.

His youngest had only been living at the manor for about a year and a half. The kid was going to cave and Bruce expected it. It didn’t matter if it had been in his civilian life or vigilante one.

With Damian’s violent track record, it was only a matter of time until the kid snapped and took something too far. However, these past few months had thrown Bruce for a loop. Sure, he had been slightly disappointed when Damian had stabbed the trafficker in the shoulder but he would also admit that he wished he could do the same. Everything seemed to work against him and the result was Damian had been primarily left to his own devices. Not to mention these new players who seemed to want to make themselves known to the Justice League. Wayne Enterprises and case files took up the majority of his time. Though it had taken him a lot longer to realize that there was a possible issue in the first place.īruce would admit… he hadn’t been there for his youngest over the past four months. The impromptu dinner that was held after Riddler’s capture pretty much confirmed his suspicions. Bruce sipped his coffee slowly as he watched the cameras in his house from his office. Something was going on with his children.
