Summary
Dick Grayson knows what it’s like to be used as leverage. To be a bargaining chip rather than a competent player. He was one of the first sidekicks, after all. “Boy Hostage” was his least favorite nickname, but it wasn’t always inaccurate.
But Dick moved on from that. He became Nightwing. He’s more than just the kid that followed Batman around. But try telling that to the Crime Syndicate. Because Dick is feeling a lot less “Nightwing” and a lot more “Boy Hostage” right now.

Summary
Tim is mad at Dick. No, scratch that. He's furious. The guy faked his own death, after all. And then he lied. For nearly a year, he didn’t say a damn thing. Not a peep, not a syllable, not the slightest utterance, his family as dead to him as he was to them.
Tim decided he wouldn't forgive Dick after that, but… well…
It's hard to be mad at the guy who's crying on the floor.
