    Summary

    Reverse Robins: Damian finds Dick after Tarantula takes him to a motel for a few weeks post-Blockbuster. They get through the aftermath together.

    _____________________________

    Dick isn't sure how long he's been staring at this grey wall.

    He isn't even sure how long it has been since he'd been brought here, or since She had taken his clothes…somewhere.

    Or where exactly “here” even is.

    Or where She had gone and for how long.

    All he knows is that the wall is his friend.

    It's safe.

    Summary

    Things I don't see in DC yet - Dick Grayson time travelling, deciding to join Talon just so he can fuck them up from the inside and then forcibly joins Bruce at 12. Bruce has no idea what to do with a murderous assassin kid who has more of his shit put together than he does. Also, not Dick vicariously adopting all of the Robins and Bruce faced with three smaller children sitting at his table every night looking at him accusingly.

    Summary

    “My word, master Richard, whatever happened to you?”
    “I fell into the harbor,” Dick said and grinned at the butler with chattering teeth.
    “The harbor, master Richard?” Alfred said and gently pulled Dick’s drenched wings open from around him. “You look like you’ve been through the sewers!”

    Robin falls into an oil spill, and Alfred and Bruce help him get it off his feathers.

    Summary

    “Your butchery of the English language astounds me.” Damian says, sliding into the seat.

    “Second language.” Dick replies. “Can’t be blamed for my mistakes.”

    Damian sniffs pretentiously as Dick starts up the car and gets them on the road, the reprimand already on his tongue. “Don’t be foolish, Richard, you have mastered a number of languages and are perfectly capable of speaking them as they were intended to be spoken, as I do. Making excuses as such is undignified.”

    Dick hums, amused. “I think there was actually a compliment in there. You’re getting soft, baby bat.”

    Damian’s scandalized face is exactly as Dick pictured it. “I am not!”
    …

    Bruce died. Bruce came back to life. The months between those moments don’t stop meaning something even if it would be easier if they did.

    It’s up to Dick to reassemble his life and find a way to be a brother to the boy he considers his kid. It shouldn’t be a problem (except that it is) and where the hell is his sweater??

    Summary

    "Jeez, you're morbid." When the kid just bared his teeth in what could be generously described as a grin, if one were to squint and generally have the vision quality of a mole, Jason turned back to the rapidly paling Tim. "You want to sweep the place for signs of Nightwing while I wrap things up with junior over here?"

    "Junior," the kid scoffed, which was real fucking rich for someone who was an inch or two from being strictly categorized as fun-sized. "Fuck off."

    "Hey, watch your mouth. Kids who don't know times tables aren't allowed to swear."

    "I can multiply just fine, jackass."

    "Hood," Tim cut in, voice squeaky like it'd been squeezed-compressed-squashed ten times over. "I don't need to keep looking for Dick. He's right there."

    or, who would've thought that a de-aged Dick would be really angry, really annoying, and really attached to Jason?

    (Bruce. Bruce would've thought. This might be his worst nightmare, actually.)
