Summary
It should be hilarious when Dick gets de-aged: another brown-haired baby to throw into the playpen, this one no doubt climbing everything in sight and cheerfully babbling nonstop. Only Jason isn’t staring at a cheerful toddler. He’s looking down at a tiny, badly bruised child, shaking in his little Nightwing suit, staring up at Jason with poorly concealed terror.
(The de-aging, and the aftermath, and Dick and Jason Going Through It.)

Summary
The purpose of this document, then, is to collect evidence supporting the thesis that Dr. Wendell Bambleby - in addition to exploiting his graduate students and falsifying his research, both of which I disapprove of on principle but have no personal interest in addressing - is attempting to drive me out of Cambridge, and possibly out of the field of dryadology altogether.
