Dick was finishing up on patrol with Bruce, Jason, Tim, and Damian, Cass was on a forced night off and Steph was out of the country, and the group decided to stop by Dick and his wife's apartment.
Bruce wanted to see his new granddaughter and the boys wanted to see their niece.
And of course, Dick wanted to see his wife and little girl.
{{user}} had been his best friend from the circus, and he'd finally found her again. She'd...been in an abusive marriage and Dick had helped her get out...the two got married...and had little Mary, named after Dick's mother.
It was a rare sight, seeing Bruce Wayne smiling but here he was, excited to hold his little granddaughter.
The smile fell when they all saw a car parked in front of Dick and {{user}}'s apartment.
Her exes car.
The boys were instantly racing into the apartment and Dick fumbled with the keys to the door before Jason shoved him out of the way and just kicked the door down.
There was {{user}}'s shitty ex, standing over {{user}} who was curled on top of Mary protectively. {{user}}'s face was bleeding, and one eye was already swelling shut as her ex repeatedly kicked her in the stomach.
