Summary
Dick Grayson has a secret.
For years, Deathstroke has been trying to recruit him as his apprentice. For years, Dick has said no. But after one mission too many, one life-or-death decision too many, one weight-of-the-world moment too many...
Dick finally says yes.
-----
Zatanna Zatara understands.
She's been carrying her own weight since her father became Doctor Fate's host. When Dick leaves the Team to train with Deathstroke, she makes her own choice...
To grow powerful enough that she'll never feel helpless again.
-----
The cost?
Exile from the Team, judgment from the League, and two years of operating in the gray areas that heroes pretend don't exist.
The reward?
Freedom, power, and fighting alongside each other every step of the way.
-----
Featuring: Slade as a surprisingly decent mentor, Constantine as his usual terrible influence self, Giovanni getting monthly weekends off from being Doctor Fate, Bruce trying to be less emotionally constipated, and the Bat Family and the Team slowly realizing that maybe Dick and Zee don't need saving after all.
-----
(The fic where Dick and Zee go rogue that no-one asked for!)
