Title: Those Who Favor Fire
Fandom: DC Comics
Characters/Pairing: Nightwing/Robin III
Rating: PG
Written For: An anonymous commenter, whom I hope sees this.
Disclaimer: DC uber alles.
A/N: I think this title is a line from Robert Frost's "Fire and Ice", a poem I'm very fond of. Thank you, Anonymouse!
Robin's supposed to be bright in the darkness. Robin's intended to shine. Tim thinks of Robin, burning green-red-gold in the Gotham shadows, branded onto his memory.
Tim's not that kind of Robin. He's never been. When he thinks of brightness, he pictures Kon and Jason, Bart and Steph, and above all Dick, smiling bright under the big top, glowing in flight over Gotham.
That was before he saw Dick stripped of his smile and his shine, shadows in his eyes, frozen flightlessly to the ground. Tim's never been the bright kind of Robin, but to thaw Dick, he'll do more than try.
