    Summary

    If Dick had known that was the last moment, he would’ve pulled Wally back into bed and given him something to remember. Made it a goodbye for the ages. He wouldn’t have let him leave at all.
    Because he hadn’t said goodbye.
    A chaste kiss wasn’t goodbye. It was see you later.
    I should’ve said goodbye.
    ----
    Grief doesn’t arrive all at once.
    Sometimes it waits. Sometimes it lingers. Sometimes it rewrites the rules of your body before you’re ready to face them.
    After losing Wally West, Dick Grayson struggles to hold himself together under Bruce’s watchful eye; until a routine investigation, a delayed truth, and a choice that can’t be made cleanly force everything into the open.

    Summary

    “I am the ghost of the man I was yesterday. He is dead, and I have killed him. It is not the first time, nor will it be the last. I am, as every man, a parliament of spirits.”
    Disaster strikes when Batman and Robin go missing while investigating a mysterious ailment sucking the life out of Gotham’s masks. To save them, Nightwing and the Red Hood venture into the shadow world of the Neverwhere, where the spirits of friends and foes are locked in a battle for the soul of Gotham City. But the ghosts of their pasts refuse to let them go, and it will take everything they have to make it out alive.

    Or: The one where Robin cage-fights an Owl, Jason has an identity crisis, and Dick wonders whether this whole vigilante thing was ever a good idea. Oh, and the Batmobile might be sentient. Deathstroke is just along for the ride.

    Summary

    "He deserves that. He deserves someone to be crazy about him. Every child does."

    Two months after Clark Kent became Dick Grayson's foster father, they go to a fair. Dick smiles. It's enough. Tomorrow they'll make sarmale — his Mami's recipe. Next week they'll face Bruce Wayne in court.

    Sometimes healing looks like funnel cakes and cotton candy and stuffed cabbage rolls. Sometimes it looks like learning to be a family.

    Summary

    Dick gets fired from being Robin. And he quits, sort of. Regardless, Gotham can’t be his home anymore. Bruce and Dick have never been father and son without being Batman and Robin, not really. Dick doesn’t feel like they know how. Dick spends a summer leaning on his friends and trying to figure out what to do while trying to reconcile the fact that the place he was promised isn’t there anymore. Also, he’s pretty sure he’s in love with his best friend, which is entirely unhelpful.

    It’s messy, it’s complicated, it’s them figuring it out.

    (If you read my fic: “oh where have you been, oh blue eyed son?” This is like chapter four stretched into its own fic)
