Summary
“Hit him harder this time, boss,”
Coughing up blood on his lap, tied to a chair, wasn’t exactly how Damian had planned to spend his patrol. But it was nonetheless not exactly unexpected. After all, when someone was as mouthy as himself, they didn’t tend to attract very many admirers. It was unpleasant, but he trusted someone was coming for him.
Anyway, how was he to blame for others’ acts of violence?
Whumptober Day 18, "I tend to deflect when I'm feeling threatened."

Summary
His heart is beating a million miles a minute as he turns the corner, nearly tripping in his haste.
He’s never felt like this before, fear coursing through his veins, threatening to overtake him. Pain bites at his face, the cuts dripping blood down his cheek in rivers he doesn’t bother to wipe away. His muscles scream at him, begging him to rest. But he can’t and he won’t.
He doesn't know why.
Damian is running and can't remember why.
The bizarre terror isn't helping.

Summary
At first, he is only irritated by the audacity of the man who’s thrown the substance. Did he truly expect that to be enough to cause Damian to lose? Had his reputation somehow taken a hit of some sort? A civilian might have uploaded a video of him stumbling and Tim had decided to repost it again. His annoyance is palpable.
That feeling is quickly replaced by hot pain.
His eye burns. Scorching flames ember inside of him, nestling in his eye socket and licking at his face. He curls backward, holding his face in agony.
Acid.
Damian is injured in the most dangerous of manners. If only his family would let him voice his predicament.
