Re: Dick/Tim
That's right, if anyone else did it I would have spoken up. Anyone other than Stephanie, or Jason, or even Bruce really. If Stephane was being an ass to you, I would treat it the exact same way I've treated this situation. And if you were being a tit to Stephanie, I'd do the same.
But if I thought for a minute that your life was in danger, I'd do everything to stop it.
What I'm saying is you aren't expected to take anything. Regardless of who is dishing it out. If you want to fight him back, then by all means. He's a little shit, Tim, tell him off if you want to. I don't care. He's a man. You're a man. You can fight your own battles. But he's my brother as much as you are and I don't want to fight either one of you. He threatened to stab me three times before breakfast was over and I retaliated by slapping him with a ham steak. You aren't being knocked down for standing up for yourself. I just said he isn't a clone - that's all I was arguing. He's being a twit, tell him so. Fight it out. Get some normalcy back, that's what siblings do. You're both a part of this family, as much as anyone else is. If anything this conversation we're all having right now should prove that more than my word ever would.
I'm not trying to punish you. At all.
You are my brother. You will always be my brother. Stand up for yourself, knock us back down when we need it. You don't have to be alone. I don't want you to be alone, and I don't want to be alone. Sometimes we need to make this family fit us. And sometimes it's a tight squeeze, but it's all we have.
