Author's Note: Here it is, the last chapter! This collection has been a blast to write and I can't believe some many of you enjoyed it. So, enjoy the final chapter of this collection!

It was a sad fact that many in the crime fighting business lived past 30. It was even sadder that most of these people died before they hit 21, but it was even rarer that an entire team would survive to retirement age. Richard, formerly Nightwing and still going by Robin more than anything, was looking around the room. Vic was on the patio, arms around Lisa, his girlfriend for four years. The two had met at a fundraiser and hit it off. Within that same week the two had begun to date and were still going strong as a couple.

They had to be taking some pretty big steps soon; Vic had announced a few days ago that Lisa would be moving in. A bunch of laughter had him looking out past the patio and onto the yard. Gar was running around with his kids, little Evie who was a sure spitfire, and Huru, who was trying to keep up with his tiny legs. Raven was watching from her lounge chair. The pair had adopted just over a year ago; that process had been hell, and the others had waited with bated breath to know if the adoption had gone through.

He had done pretty well for himself as well. Three years ago he had finally asked Star to marry him, and a year after that their little girl came along. Robin wasn't a person who bent for people, but the little girl, who looked so much like her mother, had him wrapped around her fingers before she could talk. Now he could understand when Raven would tell him how Gar always gave into the whims of the kids; those big eyes just pulled you in. It was a good thing that the kids all got along, but dangerous when they wanted something.

Shockingly enough, when they all retired, the press seemed to leave them alone. Occasionally, one of them would be called out for some mission or for a consultation, but other than that the original group of titans was left alone. That was fine with them. They all seemed to find their own little area of entertainment. Cyborg ran a small garage and Gar helped out with an art program. Robin had gotten involved in some charity work in Gotham, but that was about it. Funny, how the things that once defined your past were the simplest to let go.

A few times a year they would be separated. Lisa had family in Seattle, so Vic would go with her to visit, and Raven and Gar would be gone a few weeks while they went to Africa. Star talked about going to visit Tamarin, when their daughter was a bit older, and Robin was all for that. They saw some older honorary titans once or twice a year; Garth was still in contact with them, and Jinx and Wally popped in from time to time. Each of them was moving out of the crime fighting aspect and into the normal world.

There were some harder spots to get through. Vic had been contacted by his father for the first time in over a decade. Steve had reached out in an effort to fix his relationship with Gar. Even Bruce, who had taken a backseat to many things in Robin's life since he became a titan, was slowly trying to reconnect. The three of them were all on different pages with those situations, and many nights they would stay up talking about it. Vic seemed to be making the most progress, but whether it was due to Vic's own wishes or Lisa's wasn't clear.

Shaking his head, Robin got off his butt and joined his friends outside. Vic and Lisa said hello, and Robin sat down on the deck next to him. Gar hadn't noticed him yet, too focused on what Evie was saying, but he eventually came over when the kids went off to play on the little jungle gym Vic put together. The backyard had everything they could need; a decent pool, playscape for the kids, and lots of yard to run in. Starfire had a flower garden growing in the back, and Raven was winning the battle to include a gazebo this summer.

"They finally tire you out?" Lisa joked as Gar sat down. The green man laughed.

"Nah, they just wanted to play another game of spies and said that they needed to make a secret code. Parents aren't allowed to know, apparently." The screen door opened and Robin turned to see his wife and daughter come out. Star's hair was up in a ponytail; his daughter was wearing a shirt that said 'My daddy knows Batman!' a gag gift from Roy last Christmas. He reached out for his girl and Star obliged him.

"Someone finally woke up." Robin pressed a kiss to her head and she squeal in delight. She hadn't started talking yet, but Robin knew that if he let her down, she'd take off running the second her feet touched the grass.

"She missed you, and it's nice to be together outside."

Robin only had to glance around, looking at the kids in the yard, the happy smiles on his family's faces, and the relaxed atmosphere. The wind chimes on the porch rang from the breeze, and the hanging plants on the rail swayed lightly.

They'd all got damn lucky to end up with this.
