Five ways Dick Grayson was a hero outside of the cape, for the wondrously wonderful rubynye.
Five ways Dick Grayson was a hero outside of the cape.
1. He talked Tommy out of hunting down and shooting the mugger who'd tried to steal Sophia's necklace, trying desperately to think of reasons why Crutches would care and why Tommy should listen to him.
2. Robbie Malone gave homeless kids some of his lunch sometimes.
3. When Roy was an addict, after Dick managed to track him down, and it didn't matter that at the really bad times Roy wasn't even a little happy to see him. Dick still stayed. And helped.
4. Even if it weren't for Nightwing, he'd have come back to Gotham for No Man's Land.
5. He has yet to seriously try beat Bruce's head in for not telling him about Jason's life. And death. And resurrection.
Five things Steph hoped to do before she died, for cosmicastaway.
1. She really wishes she'd managed to get in Tim's pants.
2. She wishes she'd known who Batman was.
3. She'd have liked to tell Cass -- even though Cass already knew -- "You're my best friend, and I'm glad I met you."
4. Kick Joker in the nuts. Really hard.
5. Tell her dad she still didn't like him. And she wasn't sorry she was Spoiler. But that she'd been just a little proud to be his daughter when she heard the real story of how he'd died.
Five items of clothing Steph has always secretly wanted to own, for fickle_goddess.
1. There was the Superman suit when she was eight. She really, *really* wanted that suit.
Her mom told her it was too expensive, and Steph knew she was right, but that suit looked just like Superman's and she wanted it so bad.
Hadn't really cared about the Robin suit next to it, but she'd have killed to be Superman.
2. That shiny, frilly, sequiny pink thing that would've looked bad on her. She'd been twelve, and would have ripped out her tongue before she ever told anybody she wanted something that ridiculous.
3. Sometimes when she's Spoiler and she looks at Cass next to her, Steph wonders what it might've been like to really wear the bat.
4. Steel-toed boots. She's always loved boots like that, even if she didn't plan on kicking anybody with them. She just wants them.
5. Tim's ring. Eventually. In ten years or so. If he ever gets his ass around to doing anything but kissing her.
