character: Nightwing<br/>location: his dorm ->Zatanna's dorm<br/>time: Sunday evening 8:30 PM<br/>tag: Raven, Tim, addressing Zatanna<br/><hr/>"Lets..go inside.." He insisted as he didn't ant to potentially make a scene in the hallway where anyone could come into at any time. once inside he took a seat, his tearful eyes looking up to Zatanna, "I'm fucked up Zee...I'm scared..I'm becoming more like Bruce..that's what happened to Rachel..I called my best friend cheap after asking her to run off with me in some stupid fucked up fantasy. I couldn't run away..so i clammed up..and became him...for several moments..enough to hurt her..badly."<br/><br/>He was trying to keep his composure as he talked to her, though his voice was shaky, "I either beat thigns to a puld, or go have sex with someone..trying to escape..and now..more than ever...The one person that legitimately loves me..I've never opened up to..'till now." He is silent a long moment before speaking "I love you Zee...I just..thought you deserved better than me...I'm sorry for hurting you..I just...I'm fucked up...and...If you can still love me...I'd like to pcik up where we left off.."<br/><br/>Part of what was paining Dick so was that he had no problem with sleeping with most any woman, but the one person who actually loved him, and he her, he never did so. perhaps he was waiting for such an act to be truly special between them. The more overarching situation between Richard and Zee, was that he never truly opened up to her, not until now. It may be something that she had already observed and was looking past, but Richard needed to know what Zee loved about Dick Grayson. He sat there silently now, looking up into her eyes in the dark room, tearful, with the longest off glint of hope. Hope that she could forgive him and have him back after everything that happened.
