Dick snorted, sniffing back more tears. “Tim would love that but...I don’t know that he’s ready for company just yet. I haven’t really talked to him about it but...” he sniffed again. “He’s still really...fragile.” Dick let the words hang.
“I can understand that.” Tony pulled Dick into another tight hug. “Drive me back to the jet and I’ll head home and start working in things. You talk to Tim and the others, and tell me when you’re ready for me to come over and start installing things.” He gave Dick a bright half smile. “That’s guaranteeing your friend the spymaster doesn’t have me killed first.”
Dick snorted. “I’ll let Oracle know what’s going on. Just...don’t pull a stunt like that again or the others may jump O’s orders.” He got up slowly, tidying their cups into the bin. “Tony, it...it might be awhile before we can...”
“I know.” Tony assured. “I won’t push. I just want to help.”
As Dick dropped Tony off at his plane and headed back to the house, he wondered how he was going to bring this up with the others.
