   Summary

   Wally has spent a long time coming to terms with the fact that he and Dick would only ever be best friends. It's been hard to grow up and accept many friendships have grown more strained and tense, but he knew he'd always have Dick. It was the one friendship he never had any reason to doubt. It was enough, more than enough. It was fine.

   Dick has been going through a lot. He's been trying to make sense of Jason's strange new family with Roy and Lian Harper, but his brother just kept pushing him away. He's been so isolated recently, but his best friend Wally has never been good at leaving him alone. His steady friendship with Wally was more than Dick had ever deserved.
