some of iracus easter eggs
before you read this, make sure you've read this fic on ao3 first.
summary: dick Grayson has fallen Or a look at how people reacted after dick's death.
dick grayson week 2022 - Day 1
- dick was gonna die at christmas or thanksgiving which would have amplified the angst tons but i decided to go with superhero day instead. felt more fitting. didn't want to ruin other holidays for his people forever yk.
- superhero day is an actual thing. u.s. marvel employees created national superhero day on april 28, 1995 to celebrate everyone's favorite superhero
- alfred sees dick as his son, the same way he sees bruce. most of his quotes compare both men and notice the difference in their actions.
- my personal headcanon is that dick has some kind of eating disorder and when stressed, he goes mute
- there’s a a decade-long argument between the titans on who's dick's best friend. they didn't reach any conclusion. moreover, the number of people arguing increases every year
- if you liked the quote “ the noise of the family is a reflection of the calmness of the heart “ you should read stolen - it expands on this idea
- the feeling of not being enough to save the boys always hunts alfred. he always has to sit in the cave and wait for their bodies. this time he was hoping to reach the hospital before it was too late. he didn’t
- clark's part focuses on the idea of rebirth. most of his paragraphs started with "the first time...". it's referencing nightwing's legacy of change. dick has always had the courage to start anew when he needed to. he was never stuck in the past, always living in the present.
- dick dies holding damian and leaning on donna. i'm sorry, i don't know why i do that.
- dick dying peacefully while surrounded by his loved ones is his ideal death. dying while flying or well falling is a close second.
- coincidentally the color code pain scale follows their original colors. green, yellow, and red. blue is when the pain is off the charts.
- only dick grayson can lean on the man of steel without feeling fear or being brushed off
- the heroes couldn't return the favor and save him like he saved them multiple times before
- it's canon that the titans distract each other from pain by talks and jokes
- i know roy wasn't in titans annual #1 but roy’s quote still stands
- dick went with Roy on a trip to Ireland to Ireland to help him take care of Lian when he first started out as a father
- should i write the conversation between lian and roy? because it’s totally in my wips and all you have to do is tell me to continue it.
- check my work "d-word" where destiny and death had an interesting conversation when dick died before going to spyral.
- we have a bond, remember? you’ve been inside my mind, let me inside yours. - not comics' quote - taken from teen titans show
- have a wip around the idea of dick using swords. let me know if you want to read it.
- a reminder that ras calls bruce, dick, jason, and tim “detective”. you can guess which one is he talking to here.
- there was a part with haly but never got the chance to write it
- i also have a wip with ace, that i am not sure if i should finish. let me know if you enjoyed the dog's part.
- dogs can only see blue and yellow
- the pets call him dami because that's what dick always calls him and it stuck.
- after alfred's, dick's scent in the manor is the most prominent.
- ace knew from the moment he stepped into the room, that's why he insisted haley goes with him. he knew dick from the very beginning, he caught the change in his scent.
- was bruce in the cave destroying it? guess we will never know
- alfred was getting drunk. yes the proper british man lost it after losing his boy. it's actually canon that alfred got drunk last time dick died before joining spyral
- the longest i've ever written, wow. started this fic last july and finally pushed myself to finish it to celebrate dick's 82 years
