thinking about dick grayson.

dick who has dedicated his life to another man's cause. who lost almost all connections to his history, his heritage at such a young age. who spent his youth trying to live up to another man's ideals, to be shape shift and change into what he thought was wanted out of him. dick grayson who realized he cannot always be what others want, dick grayson who decided to become his own man. dick grayson who had the last name his mother called him torn away from him, who never had a say in letting it go. dick who refuses to allow his closest friends to support him but would have unwavering support for them. dick who wasn't even on the planet when his younger brother died, wearing the vestiges of his childhood.

dick grayson who hallucinates this boy, and apologizes over and over and over again for not being more. dick who cannot understand the same boy when he comes back, who can barely be civil with him half the time. dick grayson who learned what it means to truly draw blood when he was threatened with history repeating itself.

dick grayson who refused to step back into the role that was torn away from him. dick grayson who still came home to help, who will always come home to help. dick who takes the punches, takes the heart-stopping medication, no sorry the pill, no sorry i meant. dick grayson who died in order to serve the mission, (always for Him) always for the mission.

dick who watched his city burn. the city he swore was his to protect. dick who gave his body and soul to protect. his body (rain, cold cold rain). and soul (guns are so much louder when you're not trying to stop them).

dick grayson who had to mourn Him alone. dick grayson who raised His son, dick who watched who he thought was his strongest supporter, walk out of his life. the kid he thought understood him best and was always going to be there for him, walk out of his life to save the mission, (always comes back to Him). dick grayson who learned how to bear the weight of a cape he never wanted.

dick grayson who is naturally a performer. who knows how to pretend better than he knows how to be honest. dick who hides the worst of it inside.

Jason: Manipulate, mansplain, or manslaughter?

Roy, without a breath to spare: Manwhoreforyou.

Jason, brows raised: Say that again.

Roy: I said Manletsgetmarried.

Jason: Okay.

Roy: Really? Okay??

Jason, a smile appearing on his face: I think we already are, Roy.

Roy, grins: I just wanted to hear it from you.

Dick, through the comms: ROY HARPER????? JASON TODD????

Roy, grins even wider: Present, Dick Grayson!

Jason rolls his eyes.

Jason: You're not my mom, Dickface. Bye!

DICK: LITTLE WING-

Jason, shuts off his comms: Anyways, where were we?

Roy, does the same and tightens his hold on his bow: About to fuck shit up.

How small must the world be for both Bruce and Tim to witness John and Mary Grayson's deaths

Or for 10-year-old Duke to crack the Riddler's puzzle before Batman swoops in and saves the day, long before his powers came into play

Or for Sheila Haywood to leave her son only to end up assisting his killer a decade and a half later

Not to mention the popular fanon concept of Jason knowing baby Damian in the League of Assassins

Now imagine how many other invisible strings could've tied them together

Like what if Tim and Jason went to the same school when Jason was Robin but all they shared was the occasional bump and "excuse me" in the busy halls

Or what if Babs was a tutor and helped an elementary-aged Steph finally understand her homework only for the Browns to cancel after a couple sessions because they couldn't afford it

What if the first person to buy Cass a hot meal was Kate on one of her travels

What if Alfred witnessed young Selina shoplifting groceries but chose to turn a blind eye

What if Jason lived on the same streets as the Row siblings and gave little Harper tips on how to use tools and defend her brother

What if Steph and Duke shared the same school bus, only he sat in the front while she was toward the back

What if the first person to teach Tim how to tie his shoes was Bruce at a gala because Jack and Janet were busy talking to someone important

What if Bette did a DNA test for fun and found a connection in Nanda Parbat but just assumed the results was faulty because she knew her whole family, right?

What if 8-year-old Dick, the day before his parents died, stayed at a cheap hotel near Crime Alley and found 4-year-old Jason wandering alone and said, "I'll be your big brother for tonight"

What if the universe knew they were made for each other and wouldn't rest until they realized it too
