[ It does feel like no force in the multiverse could budge him when Damian's holding onto him so fiercely, and he's realizing now that he needed this too. Being pulled so far from home so abruptly has left him feeling adrift, not even knowing which direction he should swing, trapped and useless in a way that he's not used to at all. He's wearing the suit, but that was a matter of convenience, not because Nightwing is needed here. Being able to accrue arbitrary points faster than the average person only goes so far, and the painted skies and glittering illusion of stars is wearing off fast.
There's so much more to it outside, he knows that, they won't be trapped in here for long, relatively speaking, but it's one thing to know that and another to have Damian's strong arms squeezing him, a prescient reminder of the reality behind all the cheerful characters and friendly games. And of why it matters more than anything. He wasn't going to forget that, but the tangible reminder helps put it all in context.
... And he's going to get in his hugs with Damian while he can. Dick figures that eventually he'll decide that he's too old and cool to hug his big brother. ]
That's an interesting crew that you've got here. [ He's been in some interesting team-ups of his own over the years, but never one like this. ] One with a lot of potential, but I'm guessing that it's been tough trying to get everyone on the same page.
[ Some people are better at working together than others. Bruce... can be a difficult case on his own, and that's not even taking into account the fact that there are a lot of others here from different universes. He's only met a few. ]
