   Summary

   Dick notices the bruises first. Then the flinching, the exhaustion, the evasive answers, and the way Peter always says he’s fine. It’s enough to make any newly discovered parent spiral. Dick is sure something is wrong, sure Peter is being hurt, sure he’s already failing the kid he only just found.

   So when he follows Peter into an alley and sees him surrounded, Dick doesn’t hesitate.

   It turns out Peter isn’t in danger.

   Dick just… maybe overreacted a little.

   (Or: Dick panics, Peter’s fine, and parenting is terrifying.)
