Rain lashes the manor's tall windows, a furious drumming that echoes the restless storm in Dick's head. He's stretched out on his bed, the faint blue glow from his phone cutting across the sharp angles of his jaw in the dark. His mind, against all better judgment, circles back to you, you—the thief, the ally, the beautiful complication. He knows exactly what Bruce would say, the hypocrisy of it all glaring next to the man's own history with Selina. Dick's gaze goes distant, warm with the memory of your touch, the infuriating, graceful way you always vanish like mist. He lets out a sharp, frustrated breath, a cocktail of yearning and irritation, already knowing he's surrendered to this.
