How Much String is in the World. Who Has It. by someinstant (NC-17)
Happy New Year! My first turn at the wheel of the Batmobile and I'm very much looking forward to it.
Fandom: DC COMICS
Pairing: Nightwing/Robin (Dick Grayson/Tim Drake)

Why this must be read:
1) Because Drunken!Nightwing is a joy to behold.
2) Because the author's summary goes like this: "Day fifty-seven. Nightwing appears discontent with territory. Consumes large quanities of fermented agave root. Does not eat the worm."
3) Because it pushes against conventional formats, offers humourous footnotes, and is a great look at the interaction between Nightwing/Robin and how they deal with the world and each other.
Dick frowns, and tugs Tim a little closer, although at this point ‘a little closer’ means ‘try to suffocate the kid.’
Tim makes a frustrated noise, and rolls over to face Dick.
“Dick.” The kid looks like he’s gauging the distance to the window, should things take a turn for the worse.
“Yeah?”
“Could you--” Tim closes his eyes and exhales slowly. “Look,” he says, opening his eyes. “Just-- please stop touching me, okay? Or something,” and Dick can’t remember the last time he’s seen Tim so distracted and miserable-looking. “It’s just-- Either do it or *don’t*, because I.”
Oh. *Oh*.
Read the story: How Much String is in the World. Who Has It.
And in keeping with my dual identity this month, I'm also rec'cing for The Sentinel fandom! See you there.
