    Summary

    "Hello Dick!"

    "I…I didn’t know where else to go," he muttered as his eyes threatened to water once again.

    Immediately, the smile dropped from Clark’s face as he hurriedly closed the distance between them and rested a hand on his shoulder before asking with a worried voice, "kid, what happened? Bruce-"

    "He kicked me out."

     

    Or: my take on Dick being fired from being Robin and having to navigate a new life, sixteen and alone – or so he thought.

    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

    “Jay? You alright?”

    Finally, Jason lifted his head. He made eye-contact with Dick, and Dick froze. Something was wrong - really wrong. It was hard to explain, but his older brother’s eyes seemed - empty. Gaping and empty and wrong, and Dick didn’t think this was about the glitter anymore.

    Jason lunged.
