Dick: “Look, I’m gonna have to report this…”
Random douch: “What are you, Grayson? His boyfriend?”
Dick: “So what if I am?”
-Nightwing issue #78
Words cannot express the amount of love I had for this man at this moment. Because Dick is straight. Hell, he has a sort of an on and off girlfriend for the last couple of years. He has dated some of the hottest girls on this planet (and off planet, Kori is fucking hot).
And yet, he has no problem implying he is gay for the sake of protecting his partner, someone he barely knows. Must straight, “macho” guys would balk at the mere suggestion, and yet here he is, daring the other guy to insult him.
Dick Grayson, you are the epitome of a perfect human being.
This doesn’t even have anything to do with heroism. You just need to be a decent human being to stand up for others...
So, yes, this is fantastic. But i was thinking about this scene, and it occurred to me: what if Bruce said something...
GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
