    Summary

    “Well?” Dick says, after a moment. “What is it that’s so important? What did you have to say to me that the first thing you did after getting out of Hell was—”

    “I went to Hell,” Catalina says. “I died, and I went to Hell, and I showed Neron my get-out-of-Hell-free card, and he let me go. But before I left, I asked him to tell me… what it was, that I did, that sent me there. All the things I did.”
    _____

    Catalina Flores dies, goes to Hell, comes back, and makes a plan.

    Summary

    Even without context, as always Dick is enthralling in his storytelling. “What’s happening?” Tim asks, fascinated to know what’s got Dick so animated this time.

    It’s the smallest of expressions.

    Dick blinks at him, like for a moment, he forgot Tim was there.

    Then he’s twisting in his chair to face him, eyes bright with the promise of a new audience. “Okay, so - remember how I told you about my new manager at the studio? Well get this - he made this new rule that audience members aren’t allowed to wear hats when they come to see the kids’ recitals. It’s part of the ‘audience dress code’, a thing which one hundred percent he just made up himself - ”

    Tim watches Dick attentively. He laughs at all the right points. He even lets out a small gasp when he knows it’s expected.

    And it’s good. It’s a good story, and Dick is so happy to tell it.

     

    ***

    The frustrating thing when he gets like this is that it’s never triggered by anything real.

    Summary

    Look, the Batman may be an eldritch inhuman cryptid, but he still needs an emotional support sidekick, and Tim Drake still doesn't have any consistent adult supervision in his life. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Summary

    In which Dick Grayson and Tim Drake tag team to make both Bruce and some very unfortunate kidnappers regret all their life decisions. Jason Todd is definitely not the only theatre kid in the family...

    Dick really doesn't like putting on the Batsuit, thank you very much. So when he has to, he is at least owed some fun in it...
