"You know the inter-dimensional readings they’ve been monitoring here? They flared into a warp hole thirty minutes ago and tossed out a kid.”

Now that was an interesting development. “Alien?”

“Human. A boy who claims he's the son of Dick Grayson.”

Dick blinked, waiting for Donna to crack and smile before telling him what really happened. But his friend looked far from amused.

Updating Weekly

“Dammit, you’re positive I’m needed?”

This was not how his evening was supposed to start. There were things to take care of and set up before staking out a new and dangerous smuggling ring all night. Bad enough Nightwing was playing catch up after nearly a year of being absent from Blüdhaven’s streets at the same time Dick Grayson was trying to re-establish himself. Getting shot in the head tended to cause problems like that.

Which is precisely why Justice League problems were not his concern. “Can't you make do with Bats?” complained Dick, “Or Robin? Literally anyone other than me?”

“Oh, you’re right!” Donna snapped her fingers in his comm, no doubt rolling her eyes, “I meant to call Plastic Man, silly me.”

Tires squealed as Dick cut a sharp U-turn and earned a few annoyed honks. Two alleys back was a hidden garage for his bike. “Anyone dying?”

“Not yet.”

“That’s reassuring. And kinda boring.” He hopped off the Wing-cycle and rolled it into a narrow metal slot that opened in the brick wall. A button on his gauntlet made the false wall slide shut. “What’s my jump code?”

“Check your secure messages.”

A quick tap on the side of his domino mask brought up the HUD. “Whoa, this is a Hall of Justice code. I thought Watchtower–”

“Stop thinking and hurry!”

Donna was waiting in the lobby where he teleported in, tapping her foot impatiently as he took a settling breath. It’d been a while since he traveled via zeta tube. “Come on.” She said, turning on her heel.

Dick jogged to catch up with her quick pace. “What’s happened? Because something’s happened. Is someone actually dying?”

Reluctantly, Donna ground to a halt. “Batman didn’t want to tell you before you arrived and at first I agreed–”

“Tell the FAA to watch out for flying pigs–ow!”

She punched his shoulder again. “Get your jokes out now because I changed my mind and you need to be prepared. You know the inter-dimensional readings they’ve been monitoring here? They flared into a warp hole thirty minutes ago and tossed out a kid.”

Now that was an interesting development. “Alien?”

“Human. A boy who claims he's the son of Dick Grayson.”

Dick blinked, waiting for Donna to crack and smile before telling him what really happened. But his friend looked far from amused. “Sorry, what? Me? Dick Grayson, me?”

“Batman is obviously running a panel of tests and no one is expecting you to claim him–”

“They must be since I’m being summoned!” Was he freaking out? Dick didn’t think he was freaking out. Stuff like this didn't trip him up. Plus he liked kids, got along with them. But his own inter-dimensional kid was something else entirely.

“Honey, he’s scared,” She grabbed his hand imploringly, “He’s not your kid and you’re not his dad but you might be the only person he recognizes.”

most unbelievable thing about nightwing the new order so far is that anyone involved would miss that badly on a dart board

i will forever have beef with dc over nightwing: new order.

like, someone looked at dick grayson - a trustworthy and good person in literally every universe; a multiversal constant - and decided it would be a good idea to turn him into a fascist

[hood-ex]

Do you ever think about how Bruce had an Apokolips war weapon that could take away superpowers, and Dick talked him out of using it, but then when Clark killed Bruce, Dick lost it and decided to use the device himself?

Say what you want about what Dick did and what he became, but I, for one, am fascinated by how Bruce's death was the catalyst that turned him into a traitor in that specific universe.

I'm about halfway through volume 12 of new Teen Titans and honestly that does make me a little bit sad because once I finish off 14, that is the end of any canon DickKory...

[pablohunie1993]

tom taylor is trying to trick me (personally) into reading his nightwing run with all of these gorgeous ntt panels and covers

[robxstar]

What do you think robstar would be up to now as trouble in Tokyo came out in 2006 and was the last we saw them in that iteration version of them ignoring teen titans go vs teen titans movie I don’t know if you get my question hopefully u do 💜

I think I get it. If they were aging normally behind the scenes, you're asking how old they'd be now and what they'd be doing?

Well, what they'd be up to now, given that they'd be in their early thirties...

I would say married, moved out of the Tower and operating as a duo hero pair. I tend to headcanon that they had Mar'i early; she'd be about 14, Jake is about two/two-and-a-half years younger than Mar'i in my head so he'd be about 12.

“Your memories. You’ve made jokes but are you ever scared they’ll disappear again?”

Dick had forgotten what it was like to be twelve. Young and playful but becoming rapidly aware that the world was not as easy as it seemed, especially for him. Other Dick was missing that about his son. The man was only delaying the inevitable. Whatever he was hiding, Jake would figure it out. Hell, he might have already.

“Yes,” he admitted, “All the time.”

For a long minute he and Jake merely looked at each other. Safe in the company of a stranger who should be known as deeply as a piece of their own heart.

“I’m sorry,” said Jake.

‘Me too.’ Dick almost replied.

a clearly restrained and measured response from Dick Grayson circa 2040 AD

[atomicowboy]

ouuuug i’m having a good time getting into dc comics so far but oh my god the timeline is so hard to follow. how am i supposed to know what 2 read 😭 reading order lists have been very helpful so far but man i just wanna know what’s going on there’s So Much

New Order Thoughts??

I can’t tell if I love or hate new order, and if my dick Grayson bias is the reason I hate it (cuz he’s kind of a corrupt leader in new order) I’ve been trying to consume a lot of canon content to get a good idea of the characters rather than basing everything off fanon, but that can be difficult when there are so many different writers, and some of them fuck up the characterization. Idk if Dick would actually do this or not, like he has so many friends that are metas?? Why would he just?? And if he would I might just not want to see it because I’m biased as fuck.

HOWEVER, I am nowhere close to finishing New Order, and am probably missing a lot of key information. Pls lmk if I'm interpreting this wrong.

One thing I know they fucked up when writing new order is giving my man a lord farquaad ass haircut

I see no difference.
