Awkward Batfam love triangles 2012

[hackingyoursensors]

What are you talking about? There is no love triangle. I don't have a "schoolboy crush" on Steph. Sure, she's nice and a good fighter and, yeah, pretty. But it's just esteem, not a crush. There's a very clear difference.

By the way, don't you have work to do? Maybe you should focus on that instead of making up so-called "crushes" I have.

Lucky you. Supposedly, I'm serving a life sentence, so you'll never hear from me again.

[He's kidding. Probably.]

[Yeah but you embarrass yourself all the time?]

[redheadedspeedster]

...Life sentence? Does that mean you're in a prison? [Rob, what did you do? And do I have to bust you out?]

[Yes, but why was that time any different than all the others? Couldn't you guys have waited until after my birthday party?]

[hackingyoursensors]

An underwater prison with two AI wardens. It's never boring. [You probably couldn't bro. :( Also apparently being Robin is illegal.]

[It was the birthday gift of being brought back to reality, man. You'll thank him later.]

[redheadedspeedster]

...A prison underwater? And Zatanna's there as well? How did you guys manage that? [Maybe he could alert Kaldur? And it's only illegal because he's too awesome, right?]

[Well, things worked out pretty good, so I guess I can thank you.]

[hackingyoursensors]

By breaking a few minor laws in the pursuit of justice. As for how we ended up down there, I'm still working on that. [Oh, he's seriously considered it. ;; Yes. So awesome it's illegal.]

[redheadedspeedster]

And you got a life sentence for a few minor laws? That seems a little harsh, doesn't it?

Just you and Zatanna from our world?

[hackingyoursensors]

Everyone gets a life sentence, whether you're a mass murderer or a jaywalker. It doesn't make any sense. Though I'm starting to have my doubts. Maybe it isn't a prison. Maybe it's a laboratory.

Yep. Just us. [And they share an apartment and have a dog called Robin Jr. In a totally platonic way.]

[redheadedspeedster]

Dude, that's messed up. You think there might be evil scientists there conducting evil experiments?

[Robin Jr.? Couldn't come up with a more creative name than that? And platonic my butt. It's impossible to share an apartment with a girl and it to be platonic. Unless there's something you want to tell me...?]

[hackingyoursensors]

I don't know. I'm thinking more like social experiments than, you know, trying to make us mutants or something.

[It was a joke and then it just stuck. A-and it's totally platonic except when it's not.]

[redheadedspeedster]

So you think that these AI's are just throwing one big underwater party and observing how everyone interacts with each other, or something like that? That's...normal.

[Do I need to give you "The Talk"?]

[hackingyoursensors]

That's one of my running theories, yeah. And sometimes throwing in dinosaurs and kissing bots just to mix things up.

[Nah. He got The Talk from Bruce. He really doesn't need to relive that awkwardness with anyone else.]

[redheadedspeedster]

Dinosaurs and kissing bots? You're joking, right?

[Wally demands to see video/audio of that conversation.]

[hackingyoursensors]

Nope. To be fair, I wasn't there for either of those. Though our resident mad scientist did accidentally infect the dome with weird gas that made everyone, uh, less inhibited than usual.

[redheadedspeedster]

Do I want to know what went on during that time? [Yes, yes he does.]

[hackingyoursensors]

Let's just say I saw sides-- figuratively and literally-- of my fellow inmates that I never wanted to see.

And Zatanna and I were totally unaffected. Sorry to burst your bubble.

[redheadedspeedster]

Dude, why would that burst my bubble? I was just being a good friend and checking to make sure that you and Zatanna made it through unscathed.

I mean, it's not like I was fishing for any embarrassing stories or anything.

[hackingyoursensors]

The embarrassing stories would've been just a bonus, right?

[redheadedspeedster]

Sure, but there aren't any, right?

[hackingyoursensors]

Nope. My stay in prison has been relatively boring compared to what I'm used to.

[redheadedspeedster]

I bet that you must miss me terribly then. [Because nothing is boring when Wally's around.]

[hackingyoursensors]

I wouldn't say "terribly." [But he does. 8(]

[redheadedspeedster]

Dude, you can't fool me. I bet your heart aches a little more with each passing day that I'm not around.

[hackingyoursensors]

Think what you want. I will say that there's no one there who's quite like you.

[redheadedspeedster]

Well duh. The Wall-man is one of a kind.

[hackingyoursensors]

Definitely.

[That sounds mostly like a compliment. Mostly.]
