"For the record, I think we've both done something to piss the universe off." That was the only logical explanation at this point. That or they were cursed. He's willing to believe in a lot of weird stuff at this point.
"We're adults. Don't make this weird." It's already such a struggle.
Don’t make this weird? What was it about this entire situation that didn’t fall into the weird category? A simple recon mission that had them both hiding out in the local hotel room after the messy and loud escape due to Red X’s sudden appearance at his side.
The sudden appearance that felt like there were tabs being kept on his person. Dick was no stranger to a paranoid lack of privacy, but the source coming from... Red X, himself? Interesting.
“If you would have just left good enough alone, X. I was fine, I was prepared - there was no reason for you to worry about me and interrupt teen titans business.”
A short pause. He stared at the one hotel bed, knowing that if he used Bruce’s money for another place... Then it would become the bats’ business. Absolutely not. No way. And his own budget? Much smaller. Another hotel room was just not an option, and they needed to lie low. Dick could genuinely say that this was his nightmare scenario,
“... The glue on my domino mask is going to give me a rash if I wear it overnight.” He bemoaned quietly, tossing his duffle bag near the foot of the bed as he stalked towards the bathroom.
I ship Robin and Red X really hard, and am saddened by the lack of content for it, but as if to add salt to the wound, half the fics you can find are horrible! Rather than tell an actual story, they’re mostly just highlighting how hot their kisses are!
