( it's the pause that gives damian all the information he needs. he almost tells dick no, that he doesn't need to be babied, but he understands that dick is - reaching out, he's trying.
so instead, he just - looks up to dick. scrunches up his nose. )
It'll reflect badly on me if someone manages to take you out too easily. The Batcave will do. ( and - ) I have. . . a friend, of whom I intend to train, too. She heals quickly but I suspect she relies on that too heavily.
Her name is Laura. I believe she's a couple years younger than me. And I wouldn't say she's like us. She's like me.
( you were taught how to hurt people, too had been a statement laura had thrown at him not long into their first interaction. she'd called herself a bad thing after accidentally hurting him. )
Someone raised her to be a weapon. But she is trying to be better.

[ If she's like Damian... and Damian a few years ago... well, he has a fair amount of experience with semi-feral children raised to be weapons. ]
Bring her along, we'll all train together.
