Dick doesn’t pay much attention to her as she approaches, balancing one of his escrima sticks in his palm as he tests its weight. Barbara shifts from her chair to the couch, elbows digging into her knees as she props her chin up on her fists and her gaze wanders.

Her fingers slowly crawl up his back, taking their time and tracing along the scars dotting it. She can feel and hear his breathing hitch as they reach his shoulder blades and then come to rest where they meet his neck, the smooth slope of the muscle that dips into his collarbone.

“Babs,” he starts, turning his head enough that she can spot the flicker of his eyelashes, a length she’s always envied. She moves forward and presses against him, nosing at the top of his spine; his heart beats against her chest as she presses a kiss against his shoulder and hums. Her hand glides against it, freshly healed and out of the sling.

Dick allows himself a moment to zone out, then, just a moment, so then he starts when he feels a hand grace the skin of his wrist. He tenses before coaxing himself to relax, because it’s Barbara, just Barbara, and where some of her words have hurt (and some of his own have, too) her touch never has. Briefly, he entertains the notion of holding her hand the way he used to. It used to be grounding; it reminded them both they always had someone in their corner, always had a shoulder to lean on, but their relationship isn’t like that anymore. He pushes away from the bowl of soggy cereal.

They’re friends before anything else. He cannot help but wish the distance between them didn’t feel so wide, though.

He turns his hand over to take hers, and it’s then she pulls away.

“Brought you something,” he says, passing her the plate of hors d'oeuvres and her eyes light up.

“Oh, this is perfect for tomorrow night.” From the foyer he watches her make her way to the kitchen to slide it into the fridge. He comes back with a yes after she asks if he’s still up to go to the afternoon Knights baseball game tomorrow, but when he doesn’t move she glances back at him with a raised eyebrow. “Are you going to come in?”

Dick tugs at his already loose tie and clears his throat. If anything, he’s a man of his word, and Barbara sits back in her chair with a quizzical look on her face.

“I did say I had a plan,” he says, voice a little thicker.

It shifts from quizzical to contemplative to a realization.

He’d asked her once how it felt to kiss a dead man, and she’d only regarded him quietly for a moment in thought before telling him, cold. He’d laughed because that wasn’t a lie and he couldn’t remember the last time he was warm, he was always so cold, and then she’d led him away from her workstation where the air was always cool for her machinery.

He told her stories of the circus, what he could remember. In turn she told him that she, too, used to fly, but with a distant air to her voice. She asked him, then, in that quiet voice of hers, if he could remember how he died, and he thought of a smile he trusted and a my boy and a blade buried in his chest, and Dick said no.

He rubs the heel of his palm over his suit, just at the line above his heart. Barbara’s head tilts, her brow pulling together. “Is it bothering you?”

“No,” he says before stepping back out of her grasp with one last stretch. Dick slips the eye mask back on, blinking as his eyes adjust to the lenses. “Now, I believe we were aiding and abetting in extortion?”

“I wish you were here,” she murmurs. It’s said like they’re sharing a secret, like even he isn’t supposed to know and she’s going out on a limb by telling him anyway. The sound of his gentle, even breathing greets her, and for a moment she wonders if he’s fallen asleep.

“And what would you do if I were?” he finally asks. The question throws her for a moment, because the response she would have expected was more along the lines of me, too or be there as soon as this case wraps up.

Barbara opts to test the waters.

“I sleep better when you’re here,” she confesses. Dick chuckles a little but murmurs in kind.

“I—” he starts, stopping to clear his throat. There’s a note of hesitation that fades as he continues. “I wish I was there because I really want to kiss you. It’s been three days and all I want to do is kiss you and it’s driving me mad.”

“Your curiosity suits you,” she says, tilting her head to face him. His gaze darts to her lips and the tiny collection of freckles circling them and the rest of her features like tiny constellations. Her eyes gleam in the firelight, green in a brilliant, dazzling way that tells of a thousand different lives she’s seen, and Barbara leans into his side. Her presence is warm, welcome, and familiar.

She hesitates and looks about to say something else, and then a hand darts out to grasp his arm. His other winds around her back to brace her when she stills. A soft sound emits from the back of her throat, and he’ll admit watching a vision overtake her is a rather terrifying sight.

“What do you see?” he whispers in the space between them, minuscule as it is. Barbara tilts her head and something in her eyes hardens rather than clouds.

“I—I’m not sure,” she says, and he leans.
