FILL: One Year Later

[airawyn]

[So this “Reunion Sex” is not porn, for which I apologize. If anyone’s inclined to post an alternate fill to this prompt, I very much encourage it.

Same day as the hug in Red Robin #9. Kon was dating Tim instead of Cassie before his death.]

Gotham

Kon was appalled to see the apartment where Tim was living. It wasn’t the mess, because he knew Tim could get too focused on work to bother with the little details. It’s the coldness. Like, literal coldness. Tim’s got some fancy heating/AC unit that probably cost as much as the whole Kent farm and he hadn’t even bothered to program it

Caught Tim by surprise? Coming from the front? Kon supposed it could happen... but a suspicion grew within him. He tugged on Tim’s hip, urging him to turn around. Reluctantly, Tim obliged. He had a matching red gash on his lower back. Kon touched Tim lightly on the hip, just below the fading stitch marks. “Someone stuck a sword through you! You thought you’d just not mention that?”

“I’m fine!” Tim protested. Kon gave him a look, then flicked a finger at the raw edge where the skin was just beginning to knit. Tim hissed in pain and grabbed Kon’s hand. “I’m fine when my friends aren’t poking me in my sore spots.”

“What have you been doing?” Kon demanded.

“You know,” Tim said. “Looking for proof that Bruce is alive.”

“Without someone to watch your back,” Kon said.

Tim jerked away from Kon and pulled his t-shirt over his head. “No one was left,” he snapped. He snatched up a pair of sneakers from the floor and left the bedroom.

“Tim- dammit, Tim!” Kon blurred ahead of Tim and blocked the door of the apartment before the other boy

*sniff* oh, boys. Kon, you know Tim can't take care of himself.

Nicely done.

Man, this is perfect, just perfect! So tender and sweet, and your Kon-voice was so amazingly right. The way he's exasperated by Tim's Tim-ness but still kind of loves it, and his worry was so beautifully realised. Loved this to itty-bitty pieces!

Re: FILL: One Year Later

Thanks! I love these guys.

Aw man, I looooooved this. It was so sad, but I'm a sucker for angst, and Kon was so sweet. I loved that line about looking like a man who doesn't care whether he lives or dies, because that's the part that's scary, since that's the root of the problem. You had some wonderful details in here - Tim picking up his sneakers to leave, the thermostat stuff, the wound itself, <3

Having just pulled my own stitches out today, I can say though that serious wounds are FAR from healed at the time the stitches have to be taken out, so maybe Kon still has to go pretty easy on Tim XD

Thank you!

Yeah, well, Tim's a Bat. You pretty much have to tie them down to keep them from being active, no matter how injured they are.

... which Kon should totally consider doing. :D

awww! The part where Kon makes Tim look in the mirror really got me. That's exactly how I felt reading the Red Robin comics. Just so very 'Tim, what are you doing to yourself?' Amazing fill!

Re: FILL: One Year Later

[airawyn]

Yeah, he's on such a path of self-destruction and he knows it.

Thanks!

It was really nice and sweet and with just the right amount of angst! I loved all the subtext in your story. Because you can feel that now Kon will take care of Tim, for him to heal physically and psychologically, because Tim didn't really live while Kon was gone he was only surviving. Well it was beautifull! thank you <3

Thank you! Tim needs Kon. :)
