oh dick. i don’t think you can “sure this would be traumatic for anyone, but i’m not like that. it’s different, i’m different. i could handle it, i chose it/liked it/loved it” your way out of this

it’s not confirmed but EYE think it’s fun if dick was born in florida. new jersey raised florida man

[daring-detective]

verry meaningful to me how often dick broaches the topic of growing old with/to bruce, how he acts like he’s accepted the fact that he might never get to see him as an old man for one reason or another, up until he actually loses him. suddenly the reality of being made an orphan again settles in and he becomes a child who wasn’t ever ready to let go

character ask: what would dick's comfort movies be. or any comfort thing from his childhood he's nostalgic for 🎤

i’d  say  dick’s  comfort  movie  is  probably  the  adventures  of  robin  hood    (    1938    ).    in  general,    i’d  say  dick  quite  enjoys  swashbuckler  films  as  a  genre(?),    especially  when  he  was  a  kid;    what  child  doesn’t  like  seeing  themselves  reflected  in  these  larger—than—life  heroes  who  fight  for  the  right  reasons,    believe  in  truth and  justice,    and  defend  the  defenseless, after all.    truly a  soft  spot  for  him.    as  an  adult,    while  i  won’t  say  he  watches  films  regularly,    he  probably  likes  the  escapism  and simplicity.    if  only  his  actual  life  could  play  out  like  that.    for  the  second  part  of  the  question    …    hm.    does  robin count as a comfort thing from his childhood?    he  is  quite  content  where  he  is,    but  he  still  misses  the  days  of  being  bruce’s  partner from time to time;    their  adventures, their games,   and  the  feeling  that  it  was  the  two  of  them  against  the  world.

dick  can’t  remember  the  last  time  he  felt  just  tired.    oftentimes,    it  feels  like  he’s  long  since  passed  that  point,    crossing  the  threshold  into  something  else  entirely  in  its  stead;    simultaneously  too  wired  to  sleep    &&    too  hollow  to  be  useful,    as  if  vessel  itself  has  forgotten  how  to  properly  shut  off.    he leans  ‘gainst  the  balcony  railing,    overlooking  the  scatter  of  dim  lights  that  make  up  his  home.    much  like  her  guardian,    bludhaven  hums  low    &&    restless  in  the  dark.    a  throwing  weapon is  held loosely  in one hand,    pint of  mint  chocolate  chip  ice  cream  occupying the other.    metal  catches  moonlight  in  quick  flashes  as  he  rotates it  between long  fingers,    muscle  memory  keeping  piece  balanced  despite  his  glaring inattention,    spinning,    flipping    —    finding  ways  to  occupy  his  hands  whilst  brain  refuses  to  quiet  down.    he  almost  manages  to  drift  into  a  strange,    quiet  headspace  where  thoughts  blur  into  nothing,   when  the  sound  of  shuffling from  kitchen  snaps  him  back  to  reality.    right.    he  had  almost  forgotten  about  alison.    the  vigilante  still  isn’t  entirely  sure  himself  how  that  even happened.    the  pop  star  had  turned  up  at his door seemingly  out  of  thin  air    —    glowing  in  the  low  hallway  lighting,    hair  a  halo  of  spun  gold    &&    eyes  just  a  little  too  bright  for  the  hour    —    && dick  had found  it  impossible  not  to  let  her  inside.    he  hadn’t  even  asked  why,    the  information  feeling  considerably  less  important  when  held  ‘gainst  arranging  the  mess  of  his  living  room  to  allow  her  a  place  to  rest.    he scoops  a  bite  of  ice  cream  into  his  mouth    &&    wonders,    not  for  the  first  time,    if  part  of  her  mutation  includes  enchanting  the  pants  off  everyone  she  meets.   

dick  makes  a  mental  note  to  ask  about  it  later  before  he is startled  out  of  his  reverie.    head  perks  up,    turning to glance  over  shoulder.    gaze  settles  on  the  blonde  in  soft  blue  pajamas &&,    despite  the  exhaustion  sitting  heavy  behind  eyes,    a  smile  touches  his  lips.     it’s  softer  than  his  usual  grin,    a  little  slower    —    like  it  has  to  push  through  a  haze  to  get  there    —    but  real    &&    warm  nonetheless.    “    hey  yourself.    i  hope  you  found  everything  okay, even with  the dire  snack  situation.    as  you  can  probably  tell,    i’m  not  very  use  to  hosting.    ”    &&    certainly  not  peculiar, runaway pop  stars.    broad  shoulders  droop  in  a  relaxed  manner  beneath  sleep  shirt, though he  eyes  the  cereal  in  her  hands  dubiously,    unable to recall when exactly he’d purchased it.    he blinks when  she  points  out  the  disc in hand,    brow creasing && nose  wrinkling  lightly  in  amusement.    he  laughs,    low    &&    quiet;    sound  easing  something  stuck  stubbornly  between  ribs.    he  shakes  his  head  a  little,    straightening  spine  to  face  alison  properly.    “    well,    no    —    but  that’s  why  you  have  me.    besides,    you’re  pretty  close.    ”    voice  is  warm,    corner  of  eyes  crinkling  a  touch  of  fondness.    he  twirls  the  piece  between  fingers  before  offering  it  to  her.    “    they’re  more  like  throwing  stars  you  see  in  ninja  movies    …   with  the  added  bonus  of  making  pretty  convenient  utensils  when  you  don’t  want  to  do  dishes.    i  call  it  a  wing—ding.    &&    no,    i  am  not  open  to  criticism.    ”
