    Summary

    He woke up cold.

    Naked.

    Violated.

    Again.

    Again and again and again.

    At what point does abuse become the victim's fault?

    What a dangerous path for his mind to tread. The danger was over. The act was done. He just had to pick up the pieces. Again.

    He was so tired of being him, because being him meant pain.

    And why would anyone believe him?

    Summary

    Dick is dancing happily with Donna but after a spin, he stumbles to a stop. He laughs and points a thumb at the bar. Wally is brought back to the beginning of their night. But now Dick is stumbling, his hair messy and a little wet from his sweat, his eyes are bleary and his smile looks more lost than content.

    Wally intercepts Dick and catches him when someone's dancing bumps him hard. He holds Dick by the shoulders.

    "Thanks," Dick slurs, followed by a giggle. "I'm getting a drink. Want one?" Dick tilts his head at Wally.

    But all Wally can smell is the alcohol and the sweetness from whatever his drinks had. He scrunches his nose.

    "I think you've had enough." Wally says, leaning towards Dick so he can hear him.

    OR

    Dick is trying his best to give Donna a good birthday celebration. Things aren't exactly going as planned. Dick is having a hard time and Wally is going through the inherent heartbreak of seeing your best friend (and crush) go through a hard time despite trying their best.

    Summary

    Dick is ill--

    Allergies.

    "Allergies," Garth repeated flatly, as though the word offended him. "In December?"

    Or:

    Dick has been sick for a couple of weeks, insisting that it's just allergies.

    His friends are not convinced in the least and Dick is just in denial at this point.

    Summary

    The Justice League thought the Titans were impressive.

    They were wrong.

    They are not prepared for the truth: the Titans are not a junior team.
    They are a fully operational, highly coordinated, terrifyingly efficient strike unit held together by trust, trauma, and Dick Grayson’s refusal to let anyone fall apart on his watch.

    The League learns the hard way.

    So does everyone else.

    Especially the internet.
