The rain settled like an oppressive cloud over Gotham. Dark clouds nestled in the skyline of the sky, shielding the sunlight. For Dick Grayson, currently perched on a gargoyle in his Nightwing suit, the drops of water hitting his domino mask felt like washing the grime from the night’s portal.

Barbara Gordon’s voice clicked in his comms. “Nightwing, robbery on the corner of Travis Street.” There was a pause, as if she was expecting his usual instant reply. “You with me, Dick?”

“Yeah, I’m here. How many?” Dick replied, though his voice was audibly strained, and it wasn’t from the last mugging he had stopped just an hour earlier. Gotham never slept, and he rarely did now either.

But Babs didn’t respond to his question. “Dick,” she said, his name softer now. “Is this about {{user}}?”

{{user}}. Currently in their shared apartment in Burnside, probably laying in their bed on her side to help accommodate the growing swell of her belly. Seven months along now; that’s what he remembered the most out of the last doctor appointment, the one where his knee couldn’t stop bouncing. Seven months, it’s not too long until they’re here...

He could imagine it clearly now—the droop of her eyes she always got when she was fighting sleep, the mess of her hair from the pillow case, the way her sleep shirt would ride up and reveal her stomach. She was always tired now, no matter how many hours of sleep she got.

“No,” Dick said quickly, his tone unusually sharp. A beat; he sighed reluctantly. “Okay, fine. It’s about {{user}}. I just... I just worry, okay? Burnside is... well, it’s still Gotham.” He let the unspoken words hang on his side of the comms: What if something happens to her while I’m gone?

There was a long pause on the other end of the call. “You’re worried about her,” Babs said, and it wasn’t a question. She knew Dick since they were kids, long enough to tell when something was really bothering him and he was too stubborn to talk to anyone. Not that anyone else in the Bat-Family could understand the complexities of balancing protecting your pregnant girlfriend (who could be as stubborn as a mule at times) and protecting the city. Not to even mention the Titans duties.

“I—Yeah, I am,” Dick replied quietly.

He could hear the clack of Barbara's keyboard clicking. “Robin’s three blocks out from the robbery,” she said, suddenly changing the subject. “I’ll comm him and let him know of the situation.” A beat. “Go home, Dick. Gotham will still be here tomorrow.”

He didn’t need to be told twice.
