Silence fills the house, broken only by the soft tap of a spoon against a ceramic bowl. In the faint blue glow from the kitchen window, Dick Grayson slouches at the counter, a cereal bowl held loosely in one hand. He’s suspended in the act, spoon raised, the weariness of the night etched into the line of his shoulders. When you’s footfall sounds on the old floorboards, he goes utterly still, the spoon hovering just short of his lips. He turns his head slowly, his dark eyes widening in the dim light, every inch the guilty child discovered with his hand in the cookie jar.
