[Dick - 21; Wally - 23]
A blinding light greeted Wally when he opened his eyes. Blinking, the speedster propped himself up to see that he was in the Infirmary, the top of his suit absent and bandages and bruises littering his body.
The redhead froze, not remembering where he got that from when a voice came from his side.
"Look who's finally awake," Dick said. He stood up from the chair that was on the other side of the room and moved to towards Wally. The speedster's brain short-circuited when the ebony talked, before realizing that he also didn't look any better than Wally, maybe even worse since Dick didn't have super healing.
Dick stopped at the redhead's bedside and looked him over. "How are you feeling?" Wally grimaced when he finally noticed that his body hurt. "Like someone threw me through a wall."
Dick chuckled. "Well, that's not entirely ." Wally felt better when he saw Dick smirk, which he hasn't seen in a long time. They haven't been on the best terms for the last two years, so hearing Dick let his guard down, even just slightly, made him think that maybe, , things can return to what they used to be.
"What happened?" Wally looked confused at his surroundings. Dick shrugged and pulled a chair closer for him to sit on. "Just a mission going wrong, the details aren't important right now. What is important is that everyone is okay."
Wally squinted to see if the other was hiding something, but Dick just blankly stared back. "Di-" "I bet that you don't want to be here any longer than need be. Do you want me to help you back to your room?" The speedster frowned at the bird. " are the one that hates hospitals and-" "Yes? Okay, if you ask me to," Dick stood up and picked Wally bridal-style up.

"WOW! WAIT-", Wally's arms clung to Dick's neck as he got carried out of the Infirmary. He could feel Dick's skin, the warmth seeping into him, and fought to suppress the blush, it would only make the situation worse.
"W-why are you carrying me?!", squeaked Wally, very embarrassed to be in his ex's arms. "Because your right ankle is sprained and we don't need it to get worse, now do we," Dick smirked a dark and teasing undertone and look in his eyes.
"Dick, put me down! It's just a sprained ankle, I'll be fine," the redhead really doesn't want to be in the arms of the man he can't have anymore.
Dick stopped walking and looked calculating at Wally. "Fine," Dick said as he rolled his eyes and let Wally carefully out of his arms.
"Thanks...," Wally quietly thanked. He took a step towards the direction of his room when he felt a sudden spark of pain in his foot and lost his balance in surprise, falling backwards on the floor.
For a good moment, neither said a word: Wally feeling embarrassed and Dick staring down at him. The ebony sighed and pulled his phone out and took a photo of Wally's humiliation. "You deserve this." Wally opened an eye to look at Dick. "Yeah..."
Wally groaned as he propped himself up again. "I'm stupid." Dick was silent before a snort came from him. "Don't be hard on yourself," Dick bend down to once again pick Wally bridal-style up, this time the redhead didn't complain and simply let himself be picked up. "You're smart, you just don't always use it."
Wally looked up at his face and saw a soft comforting expression on Dick's face. Huh, Wally hadn't seen him like that after...
The speedster smiled up at the acrobat, as he carried him towards his room, secretly relishing the close contact he felt after so long being without.
[It's funny how a series of one-shot that I intended to be fluffy turned slightly angsty.]

Re: Dragonize
After an unexpected turn of events, Drew must now survive in a world full of challenges with life-or-death stakes. Gone are the days when the biggest problems to face were awkward small-talk at physics department luncheons or mountains of lab work; this former physicist is now adrift in an unfamiliar land without any equipment. Now, Drew's only tool (if it can be called that) is a System, which provides constant reminders of all of the things that are still out of reach for a low-level being who's just arrived in a new world. Luckily, Drew has one powerful asset when taking on the challenges of this new world: surviving violent conflict is a lot easier when you have the power of a dragon at your disposal. Still, Drew has always considered violence a last resort. Why turn to fists (or claws) when a bit of quiet consideration might expose a better path forward? Maybe a life of quiet contemplation is still within reach for this former academic researcher. ...Or maybe not. It probably won't be a life of bloodless pacifism. Additional information for those who wish to calibrate their expectations (I'm adding this based on a few comments I received from readers who feel that the story is not what they expected from a dragon-themed story): Re: Dragonize is not a power fantasy -- or at least, it's not intended to be one. Re: Dragonize is a progression fantasy starting with a protagonist who must start at the bottom (or close to it), and work gradually upwards, making incremental progress with plenty of setbacks along the way. The protagonist, as someone coming from the world of academia, tends to be cautious, methodical, and contemplative. As such, expect this story to contain more than a few digressions as the main character takes the time to pontificate on a variety of topics ranging from Newtonian physics and horology to the nature of existence and the ethical dilemmas associated with being an obligate carnivore.
