Y'know what would be a good storyline coming out of Bruce taking on the mantle of Nightwing (briefly)?

If he enjoys it a little too much.

Nightwing is freedom. Nightwing is light. Nightwing is fighting bad guys while smiling laughing throwing out a funny quip.

Things he never gets to do as Batman.

So what if, after things have settled in Bludhaven and Absolute Power has come and gone, Bruce decides to make a short visit and help out again.

As Nightwing.

"People are used to seeing Nightwing in Bludhaven. It makes more sense for there to be 2 Nightwings than for Batman to be here," Bruce argues. "Besides, this will only help you. Make it seem like Nightwing can be there at any moment."

And Dick relents. For now.

Barbara finds it strange (as does Dick) but he waves off her concerns with, "it's just an appearance here and there. Besides, I've never seen him so happy."

Except the odd appearance "here and there" starts to become a consistent thing. And it reaches an apex when Bruce diverts an emergency call from the Titans and makes an appearance in Nightwing's stead and hangs out with them afterwards (they are a little put off by the total 180 in Batman's personality but don't tell him to leave).

I think Dick stages intervention one telling Bruce he has to go back to Gotham and stop being Nightwing because Dick is Nightwing and Bruce is Batman.

"Maybe I don't want to be Batman?"

And the issue ends with Batman renouncing Batman. Saying that if Dick thinks there needs to be a Batman, he should take up the mantle. It wouldn't be the first time. Which leaves Dick speechless.

The next issue picks up in Gotham with Damian fighting crime, getting ganged up on, when Batman descends and helps him out. Except this Batman is Dick.

They debrief and we also get an update on what's been going on with Gotham in the weeks, perhaps months, of Bruce being in Bludhaven and how the rest of the Batfamily are picking up the slack in his absence. We also see Dick picking the Batfamily's brains about what to do about Bruce, if anything should be done about Bruce.

It takes a conversation with licensed medical professional Harley Quinn to give Dick insight into what's going on with Bruce ("trying to feel young again") and how to shock him out of it ("Bats is a stubborn guy. Even if all of you kids gathered around and said how this was affecting you, he'd say that you weren't seeing the bigger picture or whatever other excuse he can think of. What you need to do is goad him into giving up Nightwing and going back to being Batman.")

So Dick corners Bruce one day in Bludhaven and presents a challenge. Rooftop race across the city. First one to finish is Nightwing. The loser is Batman. Bruce, drunk off playing Nightwing, cocky, agrees.

Cue the night of the race Dick and Bruce, both dressed as Nightwing, stand on the rooftop with Barbara between them. She drops the flag and they're off.

It starts with Bruce in the lead, it's been a while since Dick has run these rooftops, but as the race progresses Dick slowly takes the lead as Bruce's stamina wanes.

It also doesn't help that Dick has been chatting the entire time. First nonsensically which Bruce tries to keep up with as well, but as it goes on it's deliberate strikes at the reasons why Bruce is clinging to Nightwing and, in his exhaustion, in his still existing in the 'Nightwing' persona, Bruce actually engages in the dialogue Dick creates between them and the rapport is strong.

Dick gets Bruce to admit how Dick is the kind of person he wants to be and that he thought it was Batman holding him back, and if he dropped Batman he could be the kind of person worthy of having the family he does now.

Dick tells him that it's because of who Bruce was that Dick is the man he is now, and that Bruce has the potential to be like Dick in those regards even while being Batman.

Then Dick brings up Alfred, at the exact moment they reach the statue of Alfred in Bludhaven. A statue Bruce has been avoiding since he arrived. A statue which Dick had been leading Bruce to in the guise of their 'race'. Dick has Bruce confront Alfred and what Alfred wanted for Bruce and how it's a) things he already has and b) he's never too late to change who Batman is and can be.

Bruce takes off the mask and thanks Dick for helping him out, and they hug as the race is over. Dick has won. He is Nightwing. Bruce will go back to being Batman.

However, the night before Bruce is set to return to Gotham, he and Dick are getting ready to patrol Bludhaven together one last time, as Batman and Nightwing, when suddenly another Nightwing appears. And another. And another.

The entire Batfamily drops in wearing their own Nightwing costumes. "What?" Damian says, "we heard that all we need to do to become Nightwing is win a race. Who wouldn't jump at the chance for something that easy." And the story ends with Nightwing looking to Bruce, saying "Fine. One more time." Cut to a full page panel of Dick Grayson leading a throng of Nightwings across the Bludhaven skies.

The Midlife Crisis event is over.

Forever agonizing over how Tom would covet Harry once he learned he was his horcrux. Harry wouldn’t be loyal like nagini so he’d place him in a gilded cage, Harry would never want for anything, never go hungry, never be in pain.

And Harry would hate it. For a time. But ultimately Harry was always searching for a home, somewhere to be safe and fed and welcome. And I think he’d fight, and he’d rage, and he’d despise Tom. But eventually he would settle. Eventually he’d grow accustomed to a full belly and a warm bed, and eventually he’d even grow accustomed to Tom himself.

After all, they are soulmates, of a kind.

Imagine:

After yours and Tom’s divorce, he and his brother Lee became estranged. Lee moved out of town and Tom was dealing with his heartbreak so they rarely spoke. When Tom started to feel like himself again, he looked for Lee but ended up learning the horrible truth; you and Lee actually got married just a few months after you divorced his brother and lived together for quite some time. Tom and Lee get into a horrible physical fight over you because it’s clear to Tom that this is why his brother left town, to be with you and be able to keep it a secret. When things settle down, Lee confesses that it didn’t really worked out between the two of you neither and got divorced as well and now the two men share the pain of having lost you.

Bad boys are nice, but have you tried damaged dudes?

So, hypothetically speaking, what do you look for in a partner?

Well, it's not like I have a type, but I guess if I had to a list, I do like a guy with:

Pretty eyes

Nice smile

Strong hands

Sweet tush

Good sense of humor

Mild to moderate (ok, to severe) emotional damage that is caused or exacerbated by generational trauma

Huh.

Yeah. I guess I do have a "type".

And a therapist?

Yes, I have a therapist.

Good.

Imagine:

Around others, you and Lee seem to have some sort of connection. You know specific details about one another as if you already knew each other and his brother Tom, your boyfriend, has noticed. When you and Lee finally tell him that you two dated many years ago Tom is very upset. He’s suddenly paranoid and jealous of his brother and becomes quite territorial over you. This inevitably leads to a few arguments and during an ugly one Tom calls Lee an idiot for letting you go but warns him to stay away because he had his chance and blew it.
