on losing his best friend at witchesreign

[bratbeyond]

What, were you expecting something hideous? Honestly, apa, you should know me better by now. I haven't had time to dwell on it.

...

Really. You know that phrase Instructor Evans always uses - especially when she's in that ridiculous mood? "The show must go on?" 'Course I'm pissed. Compression's been nothing but a slagging nuisance from Day One: I never know who's gonna go home and who's gonna be there tomorrow. And if Aang's gone? Big deal. He's got a whole world to save---and who'm I to stop him from getting that Katara girl he liked?

Some slagging twip, that's what. So come on, let's get those plans up for Garden. If you're going to keep me on that ridiculous excuse for a school, I might as well rule it better than that twip Seifer ever could.

[she grins] Always a good distraction. Nice way to practice eye-hand coordination, too.

Hub's same as always, more or less. Over here I got dumped in a city full of horror and mayhem. [flash of a smirk] So basically Gotham on a bad day.

But that place's nothing you can't handle, I bet. You're not alone, right? There's gotta be other people from worlds like ours. [He's not worried about her, of course he isn't. That'd just be preposterous.]

[a confident smile, that's certainly not meant to be reassuring] Of course not.

[and her smile warms] Stephanie's there. And Tim and Kon. A Huntress from a different world, but I don't know that yet.

And Bruce, but he doesn't look like ours and he's going incognito.

[It takes him a moment to translate the names in his terms: "Noah's mom & dad, Chris's dad... someone he's never heard of... and the old man.]

Good. I'm not sure how helpful they'd be [because Damian has Bruce Issues] but even the illusion of support's better than nothing.
