And Lew's privately resolving that if she doesn't call back by Friday, he's going to march over to Waverly and give her a piece of his mind after school.
YES YES YES. Eeeeee, you just know that Lew is at that stage where he is so ridiculously happy and perky all the time that he wants everybody else to be like that. And besides--it's honestly been good seeing Dick this happy, and being able to be happy for Dick. And Lew just doesn't want to see all that screwed up.
And Dick's just raising his eyebrow at her, like he doesn't actually think that's true, and weirdly enough that just pisses Dani off, like after all these months he really doesn't get how screwed up in the head she is? "Look," she says more fiercely, "you don't get it--"
But Dick's looking at her, and he's saying frankly, "No, I don't think you get it. Do you honestly think I'd let you around the kids if I thought you were going to be bad for them? You think I'm that reckless with their well-being?" And Dani's staring at him, and Dick says, more gently, "The kids have been asking after you. They miss you." And then he takes a breath and admits, more quietly, "I've missed you."
