You always get a say.

[ Runt, don't look at him like that. He frowns, pushes Dick's bangs back out of habit, mussing his hair further. It's grounding; the only way he really knows how to reassure. Confirmation that he's here, he's listening, he's paying attention, that he cares, even when he goes silent or looks away because talking is hard.

He wants Dick to know that his opinion always, always matters. Children are so often ignored. He remembers that. ]


But I don't want you to use a gun. I don't want you to always be living in violence.

[ It's hard enough doing what they do, rough on a kid growing up. He can't imagine introducing Dick to his side of things -- not for a long while, if ever. ]

I want you to do better than me. Even if I must bully you into cooperation.

[ He doesn't sound so regretful about the bullying part. Damian actually enjoys pushing his siblings around. ]

I may not be here every day, but I haven't abandoned you. You remain my highest priority.
