A/N: A chapter will be posted a day until I run out of pre-done chapters. This is sort of modeled after

the five and one stories but each section will vary in length. The first one is a two-shot and actually

starts in chapter two, this is just the set up.

Summary: First his teammates need to learn that he is human (and therefore limited) then they need

to learn to forget that fact (because he is a human who could kick their collective cans).

Disclaimer: If I owned this Roy would be Dick and Wally's age (like he SHOULD be). He's not, ergo….

Prologue

Robin did not tell the truth when he said Batman's first lesson was to always have your utility belt.

The real first lesson was one that seems almost unspoken, and yet Batman enforced it each day. The real

first lesson was that a Bat must know everything about everyone. It was the only way to stay ten steps

ahead (any less than that and you were falling behind).

It was because of this lesson that Robin knew that Kaldur's favorite color was teal, despite the older

boy never showing any predilection towards the hue. It was why he knew that both Wally and M'gann shared

the crippling fear of being alone, Wally through his powers and M'gann through the loss of her people. And it

was how he knew that Superboy knew nothing of human physiology. The clone did not understand that he

could absorb a blow that would kill Robin twenty times over and as such did not know how to compensate

for that fact in a fight.

Sometimes Robin hated how observant Batman's training made him. He hated looking a person in the eye and

instantly knowing their life's story or accidentally glancing in a woman's purse and knowing exactly what worried her.

But most of the time he loved the ability. He loved surprising people with his knowledge, he loved the little smile

Superboy got when he realized someone cared after Robin used his knowledge about the clone in some way,

and he loved the puzzle of it all.

It is Batman's first lesson (though not his first rule) and the teenagers of Young Justice are about to learn it the hard way.

The second chapter will be up as soon as I spell check it.
