Plei, I like your Babs theory. The Fear is definitely making her push people away in a very Bruce-like fashion. Not to mention her own theory about "why Dick sleeps with people." 'Cause... yeah. Heh.
And re: the rooftop reversal -- yes!
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Shrift, where does he first not want to be called Dick? 91? 92? It comes up a couple times with Amy.
Gotta take notes. Lots of 'em.

Plei - does he not want to be called Dick because he's being Nightwing? Is this more than a safekeeping the not-so-secret identity?

Sumi, I'm still torn as to the meaning. We haven't seen him out of costume since the graveyard, have we?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Plei, are you thinking of the scene in the BPD parking garage in 91? Because I didn't see that so much a matter of objecting to the name she was using as of resentment at her coming to him at all.

Amych: I'll have to doublecheck, because my memory has it happening more than once, and thus worth looking at, which could be the four hours of sleep making me see things.

Pretty sure not. And it's definitely more than all his stuff getting blown to smithereens. I may have to go back and revise my previous whitefont -- he's definitely got as sharp a split between costume and noncostume life as Bruce does, right about now .

I'd almost go so far as to say even more of one. Bruce usually at least *has* a non-costumed life, and right now it feels like Dick buried himself with the residents of 1013 Parkthorne.

Good point. Poor woobie !

No, I don't think we have. It's as though he thought he only knows how to be Nightwing and after this -- will he know what that means either?
