    Summary

    Once a while
    When your sorrows have a name
    And day is dark as night
    (No remorse and no redemption)
    Close the door
    Can you hear the crowd is waiting
    For the last encore
    Screaming out for my attention
    (Chanting my name)

    Summary

    “I might have asked you to take me to see them, but I realised that lemmings don’t commit mass suicide. They don’t even throw themselves off cliffs.” Dick’s dark circles are tinged with the grey of meat gone bad. “Bummer, huh.”

    Or: Dick tried to kill himself. Bruce has a hard time dealing.

    Summary

    "The problem with the Batfam is that everyone is a narrative parallel to everyone else. They're all too busy talking to their own reflections or to the ghosts that haunt them to have a real conversation with each other."

    Summary

    As Batman signed for him to add his backup smoke pellets to his belt after forgetting to in a recent patrol, Dick was suddenly hit with the memory of the man scolding him for it. He remembered how Bruce had walked towards him, brushing the dirt off of Dick's face and pinched his cheeks. He recalled sticking his own tongue out at the man and the low — but free, so free — chuckle Bruce let out in response. And Dick reminisced on how warm he felt in its wake.

    Large age gaps between friends existed.

    It made perfect sense.

    Except...it didn't.

    Or, how Dick transitioned from seeing Bruce as his mentor to seeing him as his dad.
