   Summary

   And then, for the first time since the accident, Dick spoke.

   "It shouldn't have broken". The trapeze, Bruce guessed. The one that somehow snapped from the weight of just two people in a three people act, the one that Bruce was certain was tampered with.

   "We practiced with it all the time. It was fine this morning. It shouldn't have broken".

   "No", Bruce agreed, "It shouldn't".

   A story that explores the aftermath of the death of Dick's parents, and shows how Dick Grayson became Robin.
