    Summary

    As far as Slade remembers, Nightwing is some overconfident, naive brat who's strangely flexible.
    But Dick Grayson? Is someone important.

    After wiping the world's memory of his identity being revealed, Dick's life is a mess that he's trying to put together. Every waking moment is about being Nightwing again, he has no time to be Dick Grayson.
    Which is fine, because it seems like no one remembers Dick Grayson anyway.

    Summary

    “You’d like that, wouldn’t you?” Slade murmurs back absentmindedly, still focused on the knots at Grayson’s wrist.

    Grayson makes another one of those sounds, somewhere between a gasp and a cough, like he’s trying to simultaneously swallow and eject something stuck in the back of his throat. “Jesus, kid, what the fuck is it this time?” Slade says.

    Yes,” Grayson chokes out. “What the fuck it is is yes, I’d like that, and stop asking me questions.”

    -
    Dick gets truth serum’d. Slade does not, in fact, stop asking him questions.

    Summary

    It's weird, Dick thinks, to be on what amounts to being the opposite side of this invisible line they've all drawn in the sand. Weirder still, that he's actively watching Deathstroke desperately cling to the other side of it.

    Summary

    “What day is it?” Derek demanded.

    “What?”

    “The day! What day is today?!” Derek let Stiles go, but only so he could reach into his pocket and pull out his phone. He tapped at the home screen, and then went so perfectly still that Stiles was pretty sure this guy wasn’t human. No human could stand that still.

    When it was clear Derek wasn’t going to move again without some prompting, Stiles said, “It’s Wednesday.”

    “That’s impossible,” Derek whispered.

    “Not really, it comes around every seven days.”

    “This is impossible,” Derek said again, looking around himself, as if he was searching for something.
