A Not-So-Happy Announcement
A.N.: I have nothing to say for myself. And you probably saw this one coming a mile away. Enjoy the chapter.
"What's up?" Dick's voice was cautious as he approached.
Bruce turned back to the article on the screen. "I was making sure we covered our tracks when I found this. Take a look."
'WOLF PREGNANT BY UNKNOWN FATHER AT GRAND MILL ZOO,' the headline read. The rest of the article went on to say that Aurora had been part of a breeding program, and that none of the male wolves seemed to be displaying particularly fatherly behaviors, but Dick didn't read much further down before burying his head in hands.
"So you do remember."
Dick groaned. "Kind of? It's blurry and just…I don't know what to call it."
"But you did…mate with her."
"Please, don't call it that." Dick swore under his breath, muffled by the respirator. "I need to go see her."
"We don't even know if it's actually yours. Like it says, she was in a breeding program and had already been paired with another wolf. Maybe the real father is just rejecting the litter."
"No," Dick replied absentmindedly, shaking his head. "No, we don't do that."
"'We'?" But Dick just buried his head further in his hands.
"Shiiiiit, what am I gonna do…"
Dick felt a hand running along his back, the same way someone would pet a dog.
"We're going to work this out. For now, we'll monitor the situation and see if anything new comes up."
Dick squirmed away from the hand, and didn't say anything.
"Go to bed. Get some sleep."
He nodded and left.
A.N.: Not a lot happened here, but I'm kind of desperate to get this out so here you go.
