[ Sometimes, he still expects Dick not to take him too seriously. He's got that habit of being a bit mouthy and a lot of times it works for him. When people think of Batman, they think of that stoic, intimidating shadow with eyes. Not a guy like him. He's not built like Bruce and there's no cape and Joker told him the ears were too long (they're not). And he talks. A lot of times it's irritating, throws them off so he can swoop in and deliver the metaphorical kill shot.
Other times, it doesn't and that's alright. Sometimes he takes a bomb to the back. He still won that fight. This time? He gets a kiss out of it. So not a total loss.
As Dick lingers, Terry takes the opportunity to smooth his hands through Dick's hair, even though the actual feel of it is lost while he's still wearing the suit's gauntlets. It's just the motion of it, the tenderness of it. The smile is nice. It certainly doesn't diminish how handsome Dick is. He doesn't want him to go, but understands why he does. Things are new. They should go slow. Figure out how to navigate so it doesn't backfire. It makes sense and Terry won't argue it. ]
Alright, Boy Wonder. [ he finally pulls his arms away so he can start getting the suit off. ] Try not to miss me too much while I'm in here.
