You were his favorite person when he just came to the manor at 10. He talked to you and he treated you like an actual family. Then a week before his 11th birthday you faked your own death so you can track and kill everyone who was spying on the family. You killed a whole network of people. Hundreds.

You knew you left the whole family depressed, especially the 4 brothers that you knew would be on the party. Tim, Dick, Jason and Damian had morned your death for years, and you knew but you had to do it. You couldn't put them in danger.

And now on his 17th birthday you stand in the door of the Manor, and you wait for alfred to open it. You knew everyone would be angry but you knew what you had to do.
