Who: Robin and Nightwing
Where: Bludhaven
When: 2/17/15
What: Dick needs some help in Bludhaven. Besides, Damian hasn’t seen much of his turf yet. Good opportunity, right?
Rating: PG-13 for Damian’s likely death threats.
Dick, like nearly all of Batman’s proteges at this point, was highly independent (well, except for things like laundry). Usually when faced with a problem he would simply work around it till he could accomplish what he needed. Sometimes he bothered Babs for information, sometimes he had to go to Tony or the Cave, especially when his equipment was in questionable shape. But on this problematic job, he needed another person's help.
The job being placing a camera with audio in one of the vents of a mobster’s club.
Oh, sure he could get a robot to go down there. Tony would probably make him one, even. But there was also the other matter of not letting a certain someone get restless.
Heaven's forbid that Damian be bored. Whereas Tim and others were happy to leave Damian to his own quiet devices, Dick took an opposite approach, in this case seeking him out and requesting a favor. It was simple enough. (“Hey, want to go to Bludhaven and help me set up cameras? Why? Well, unfortunately my skills aren’t quite adequate for the job.”) So here they were...
Standing on some rafters in a garage near a vent that was going to be even a tight squeeze for Damian. Apparently, the skill Dick was lacking was that he had eaten a great deal while an adolescent so had grown up.
“It turns quite a few times. Your shoulders need to be diagonal," he said cheerfully while removing the last screw from the grate.
