ά’ TRIVIA──


considered to be the world's deadliest spy (allegedly) but has an entire history of ruining undercover operations by exposing other agents and himself, often due to his arrogance and lack of discretion.

his escrima sticks remain his weapon of choice even after leaving the vigilante life behind. his mother insists it would be better to work with a gun but he refuses.

grayson's wardrobe is stocked with black turtlenecks, woven only from the finest azerbaijani cashmere wool. he'll wear them to every mission, always pairing them with his signature domino mask. his mother has judged him for it, insisting it makes him look childish.

his blood type is a mystery to him and to everyone else. he doesn't know it despite his mother, partner and multiple friends begging him to get tested. he goes to regular appointments but always forgets to ask for the results.

had a mild case of alcoholism. he has blacked out from drinking more times than he can count. he's once woken up with an entire ear of piercings he has zero memory of getting. all infected.

his upbringing was rather difficult due to his mother amali's busy espionage career. had a tumultuous relationship with her growing up and was sent to boarding school at the age of five where his primary caregiver was the family butler.

he was offered an athletic scholarship to play football at johns hopkins but the offer fell through after he was shot in the abdomen by an unknown and was pronounced dead. his death was faked by amali archer who orchestrated the shooting to prevent him from attending a university she disapproved of. he was later offered a spot in georgetown university instead and to this day, he's completely unaware that she was behind any of it.

his real name is richard, named after his late adoptive father but he goes by grayson which was his mother's dog's name.

has mommy issues.

his stepfather began training him at the age of thirteen. acrobatics, martial arts and detective work were a few of the skills honed to prepare him.

took on the identity of nightwing after years of serving as the caped crusader's sidekick, establishing his own career until age 26 when he retired it indefinitely to work as an agent for his mother's agency in korea.

he shares a deeply dysfunctional, codependent and often volatile love hate relationship with amali, defined by her role as both his mother and boss at the agency. while she's frequently cold, manipulative and rather neglectful, she shows genuine, albeit narcissistic, love and protective concern for him.
