Thanks for this awesome fill!

Sick was a good word to describe what he was feeling, though frustratingly vague. He’d wanted Bruce to get knocked off his high horse, yes, but he’d never wanted anyone actually hurt. He’d wanted Bruce to be wrong for once, he’d wanted to be the moral paragon counterpoint to the Dark Knight that everyone thought he was, and while Superman was not stupid enough to believe that just wanting those things had caused them to become warped, and then, suddenly, real-well, coincidences that are not coincidences are never good news.
It wasn’t like Robin had never been stabbed before-that much was true. But he was usually Robin at the time, on the streets, ( ... )

“Whatever. I have this thing that takes up a lot of my time, y’know?”
“A life?” Bruce deadpanned, cutting him off. “No points for repeat jokes. You’re losing your touch.”
He was kneeling next to Dick now, holding the pillowcase to the wound while Alfred continued his duties elsewhere in the house. And also, presumably, kept an eye on the child sleeping in Dick’s room.
“No, I’m losing blood,” Dick retorted, pushing the last few pieces of soggy cereal around the bowl. “Haven’t you been paying attention ( ... )

I really like your take on Superman--exactly what I was looking for. I also like the repetition of "coincidences that aren't coincidences." And Alfred with the cereal! I LOVE it. I also love how Robin is the one coming to Dami's defense, even though he was the one that got stabbed. Can't help but wonder, where is the little hellion in all of this?
Great work! I look forward to the next part!

I will say, though, that Rob's not coming to Damian's defense so much as he's rationalizing his behavior. I think Dick ultimately has it in his heart to forgive this, because Damian's pretty much been raised on brainwashing with a side of propaganda, but his main motive so far is keeping Bruce from being consumed with guilt. Because this situation is seriously the best thing ever from Bruce's POV-- the son he adopted to give a safe haven to is nearly killed by the biological son he's trying to rescue from that kind of darkness. Pretty much any logical action (like, you know, saving his life) is going to be interpreted by Damian as favoritism towards Dick ( ... )

And I totally see what you're saying about Dick. And I like how you say that "Pretty much any logical action (like, you know, saving his life) is going to be interpreted by Damian as favoritism towards Dick." It's funny, because it's true. (Also tragic, because it's true.)
I find it odd that he's sleeping and that he's sleeping in Dick's room. I will put my faith in you, Writer!Anon and see how you proceed :D!
Will now go read the next bit and comment accordingly! Cheerio!
