Dick narrating: It was one of my first outings as Robin, The Boy Wonder. Batman and I had just defeated a robot dinosaur, and there was only one thought on my mind…
Dick: “Can we keep it?”
Bruce: “No.”
Dick: “C’mon, it’d be great. We could keep it in the cave and…”
Bruce: “I said no. Transporting something that large would risk undue attention. To the Batmobile. Now.”
Dick: “But—”
Bruce: “We’ll talk about it at home.”
Dick narrating: We never did speak of the robot dinosaur again. We didn’t have to. It was just there the next morning. Like magic. Like finding a present under the tree on Christmas morning.
Dick: “Holy…”
Bruce: “You’re late. Let’s get started. We’ll begin with defensive postures. Attack me.”
