Whilst on a press tour that takes them across the United States, the Avengers find themselves attendants of a sumptous celebration in Gotham City as the guests of honour. It's at this event, as they mingle with the city's most elite, that they're introduced to Gotham's personal royals: the Waynes. Dickie, the charismatic eldest child and a born showman through-and-through; Cassie, the first daughter whose elegant ballet puts all others to shame; Jay, the second addition to the family whose return from "the dead" is regarded as a miracle by Gothamites; Timothy, the business genius who has a monopoly on the majority of the city's utilities, exports and properties; Annie, the surprisingly sage second daughter who prospers despite her ultra-rare eye condition; Damian, the reclusive rumoured prince with an affection for animals; and the monarch, Brucie Wayne himself, the kindhearted bumbling baffoon who has used his wealth to change the city of the better. Of course, it's not all sunshine and rainbows, especially in the world of the super-rich. Their history of multiple controversies and scandals, combined with some ill-timed impute on Tony's part, unresolved biases and misplaced concern drives Steve to try and dig deeper for information regarding the reality of the Waynes beyond the glamorous lives they flaunt in front of the cameras. With the help of both Nat and Sam, he manages to find various instances of the Wayne children being recorded having injuries that appear with no explanation. So many instances and injuries, in fact, that he becomes uncertain of the children's safety inside their manor's locked doors. So when an assassination attempt by a rogue organisation against Dickie Grayson's life calls for the Avengers to aid in protecting the family, tensions are high and stares are suspicious.

Dick Grayson's life has never been easy, but he'd like to think it's been going better lately. He's been operating mainly out of Gotham again for almost a year, and has been in a steady relationship for just over. He knows where he stands with crime-fighting, and the family is all on pretty good terms, considering. Things are really going pretty well. Unfortunately, the balance doesn't last long, and old horrors from Dick's past end up dredged up alongside new ones. This is a story about love and family, but equally so about trauma and healing from it. Please heed the warnings in the preface. ______________________________________________ •Written May 2019 ̶ October 2020• [Complete, 97k words] Thank you to @violenttulips for the endless support and feedback! ______________________________________________ ______________________________________________ (Art featured on cover by FightClubFIEND via DeviantArt; 'Night Wing Emblem'.
