It was funny, half of the time he didn’t ever want to think about it again, like he couldn’t bear to remember how it felt. The other half of the time he felt almost like if he didn’t think about it all the time it would be like forgetting his parents, letting them go completely.

*pets Dick gently*

He was pretty sure Bruce had noticed it.

*pets Dick again*

“Every twenty years, they build it so it’s completely new. And yet it’s still the exact same building, the same one that’s been here for thousands of years. It never lets go of the past, but it’s always starting new. It can do both. And inside it, in its heart…” He tapped Dick’s chest, “Is a secret treasure that no one can see: the wisdom to bring back the sunlight.”

Oh, oh! *flails* Oh, that's so lovely and beautiful! *happy sighs*

Dick was pretty sure the rest of the sight-seers would probably be scandalized by the sight of two foreign men hugging in front of a sacred shrine.

But I guess they’ll just have to deal with it.

Awww! *hearts them both*

This was a sweet little story, thank you for sharing it! :)

It was really interesting to write them in an AU where Dick doesn't know how much he and Bruce have in common! Although I have a feeling he suspects from here...

Dick and Bruce hugging in public made me really happy to write! I'm glad you enjoyed it too!

That was a lovely touch! ;)

P.S. Apologies for constant editing. Apparently LJ has a new glitch that makes the default pic show in the comment even though I distinctly remember choosing a different icon in the drop-down menu. *sighs* At least it fixes it with an edit.
