Summary
“Dick!”
Dick wasn't sure when exactly the world seemed to shift, his eyes staring steadily up at the sunset painted sky of Gotham. As a matter of fact, he wasn't too sure when he'd ended up on his back, his hair getting caught in all sorts of broken pavement pieces and miscellaneous bits of trash. He would have spent more time worrying about catching something if his shoulder didn't hurt so much.
“Oh, God, Dick, hang on, let me get the bag!”
Whoever was talking sounded as if they were underwater, or perhaps speaking through a busted radio. Dick blinked, his right hand rising towards his opposite shoulder. He didn't get far before something that felt vaguely like a hand wrapped in a nitrate glove wrapped around his wrist before he could make contact.
“Jesus, don't touch it! Goddamn it! Dispatch, this is Medic 437, we have a medic down, we need ALS and PD backup now!”

Summary
There were a lot of maybes and Dick just didn’t have the energy to try to sort through them all. He was tired, though it wasn’t an exhaustion that was the product of not enough sleep. It ran deeper than that, right through his skin and organs and veins and nestled deep within his bones; a weariness that had been growing ever so slowly over the years and had finally overtaken so much of his body, had dug its roots so far down that it would be impossible to separate one from the other.

Dick tries to go back to work, tries to make sure everything goes back to the way it was, but he can't help but feel as if the past isn't done with him quite yet.Series

Summary
“Do you know what I think?” he asked, not even bothering to wipe the small amount of spit Dick had managed to land off of his face. “I think you like it. I think you like it when I treat you this way. I think deep down you know just as well as I do that you deserve it.”
“I think you’re a fucking creep,” Dick replied. “I think you’re a monster.”
“Maybe, maybe not,” Slade stood, making his way back towards the doorway. He lingered for a moment, looking at Dick as a predator might at a prey they had just caught. “But if I’m such a monster like you claim, why did it take so long to realize?”
Dick blinked, forcing himself to breathe.
“I thought you were supposed to be good at your job.”
