Reading Nightwing and watching Dick’s world coming down around him

dickybirdgrayson:

But no seriously. You thought JASON had it tough? (well, he did, but STILL), in the span of a few weeks, Dick:

  1. Gets dumped by Babs
  2. Accidentally beats the Joker to death with his own hands
  3. Watches Haly’s Circus burn to the ground
  4. Watches his home burn to the ground, with all his civilian friends in it
  5. Loses his job
  6. Let’s Blockbuster die
  7. Gets molested by Tarantula on a rooftop
  8. Gets shot in the leg in the Gotham riots and almost bleeds out
  9. Turns himself and Tarantula in to the police for the murder of Blockbuster but gets released and therefore couldn’t pay his ‘penance’
  10. Decides to end his life as a vigilante and join a mafia mob under the name Crutches
  11. Joins Slade in training his daughter to prove he’s not a good guy anymore
  12. Fights with Tim
  13. and generally spirals downwards into a pool of self loathing and hatred. 

There was other stuff but i forgot it. Also this. Because it broke my heart.
