#he's fantasized so long he needed a sec to reboot

What do you think the last time Ziggy and Nick saw each other before 1994 was like?

I think it was when she was carted away in the ambulance from Nightwing, which is implied in canon. Because such glorious star crossed lovers, unexpressed emotion and such, and adds to Nick's hesitation to contact her. I think he probably tried to contact her, probably took her flowers to the hospital and she refused to see him. (Nick could have pressed but did not bc he didn't want to do that to her). That being said, I'm sure they *glimpsed* each other, as Ziggy sees him on TV and probably saw his squad car around town (and Nick's a creeper who probably over patrolled her neighborhood to "keep her safe") but like actual face to face contact? Not until 94. Which also explains why Nick's brain went blank at finally seeing her looking at him and him alone, apparently biding him to come to her.
