Summary
The kid seizes in pain, back bowing off the table, and lets out a choked sound, scrabbling at Vin’s wrist. He doesn't know what the hell the kid expected to happen, blowing a building up like that, but he wouldn't be talked out of it. Now he's got a hole in his belly and shrapnel lodged in his guts.
“Hell of a lot of blood in one body. Batman?”
“The explosion,” Vin grunts, wrapping the wound up tight. “Helped him rig the bomb myself.”

“What’s in there, anyway?” Charles asked, rolling down the window. “Looks heavy.”
“A few million dollars' worth of electroshock weapons,” the kid said, dead-serious. After a moment, a grin stretched across his face. “Nah, I’m just fucking with you. It’s old clothes, mostly.”

Summary
“So,” Jason says, quiet, eyes trained on Bruce yet clearly directing the remark to him. Dick feels strangely honoured to be included in his little aside, until he hears the ending. “He’s sharpened his stick at both ends.”
Dick has an incredulous, “What the fuck does that even-?!” bursting out of his mouth before he is quite rudely interrupted by a batarang rushing towards his rightfully confused face.

Or,There's something wrong with Bruce. Dick lies between his crosshairs.

Summary
The League’s base is not built to welcome strangers.
Bruce is not a stranger.
He whips around another hidden corner, not bothering to try and silence the snap of his cape. There are no assassins waiting for him.
On the far side of the compound, another explosion echoes dully, Jason fulfilling his role with enthusiasm.
There will be bodies left behind when they leave this place. There is no time to dwell on it - Bruce compartmentalizes. It is easier than it might have been, some other time, some other mission.
He already found the room where Tim was being kept.
