Return to the Fold

Dick bit his lip as he hesitated outside of the living room where his brothers gathered. Should he go in? Damian had invited him for a night of video games and food, intending for them to take a break from their vigilante jobs. It had sounded good, when Damian had told him about it. A chance for Dick to be with his brothers while they did something fun. A chance for Dick to surround himself with the people he had missed while he was gone.And there was the crux of the problem. He’d been gone. “Dead.” For all he’d really been dead for a little while at the beginning, when Lex had shoved a pill in his mouth and suffocated him, he had not been dead when he’d gone undercover. He’d lied to his brothers. He’d lied to his brothers, and now he had to pay the price.
