He was built to be a weapon-strapped to a table, measured in heartbeats, and trained to survive whatever the scientists decided to do next.
Gavin doesn't remember his childhood so much as he replays it: every voice, every smell of antiseptic, every flash of pain, filed away in perfect detail. When Black Canary tears him out of that world and gives him a home, he tries to do the impossible-be a normal teenager with a locker combination, football practice, and friends who don't know his real name.
Then Batman offers him a place with the Team... with rules. Observe only. Don't interfere. Don't get attached.
But in a world of secrets, mind-readers, and missions that go sideways fast, a kid who sees patterns others miss is exactly the kind of asset everyone wants-and the kind of person everyone will try to use. Gavin just wants to belong. The League wants to keep him safe. Cadmus wants their property back.
And the fault lines are already starting to crack.
