Brood, really? Doesn't suit you, Dickiebird.

[beknighted]

Preaching to the choir, Father Todd.

[ex_agoodsoldier468]

Then again, it wouldn't surprise me. Bruce's usual 'tude is infectious if you're around it long enough.

[beknighted]

You're underestimating my own, unique ability to fuck up, Jason. I'm hurt.

[ex_agoodsoldier468]

Oh no, I know how amazingly you can fuck up. I just thought I'd be nice and not mention it right off the bat.

[catwoman]

I didn't take you for being the over dramatic type.

[beknighted]

Never by choice. But if it gets me where I want to go...

[catwoman]

And where exactly is that, handsome? I hope it's some place tropical and has a beach.

[beknighted]

It's certainly those two. But you know us, Selina. No time for vacation.

[Apart from a CANONICAL ONE YEAR CRUISE HA HA HA ... HA ...]

[catwoman]

Come on bird-boy, I'm sure you take a break once in a while.

If not, I can always drag you out to do something fun.

[Shhh we don't need to think of these things.]

[robinred]

'We hoped it would solve itself'. [ Like. Really? ]

[beknighted]

There was no box for "you basically gagged me, put me in a sack, and dumped me in the river." Which — I know, I know, I should be able to get out of that. What's all the training for, otherwise? But I'm here now! Providing encouragement and motivation. Preparing to inconvenience your life in one more minor yet significant way.

[robinred]

[ Minor, he says, because that's what all of this is to him. Apparently.

Hell, Tim knows he's off course with that. Let him convince himself of what he wants, in this space at least. ] Like I said before, you'll be useful on the island if you ever make it that far.

[beknighted]

[In comparison to the actual environs, Dick definitely considers himself a minor complication. But in this space, there's no point in getting into everything they'll need to get into.]

As discussed and agreed. [As if any of this is up to them.]

[robinred]

[ Yeah, he's. Looking forward to all of that. And because of that, Tim's going to tread into the cautiously casual. ]

So, uh. You won't be washing up in civvies, will you? [ It's not really a question. Don't say no. ]

[acro_bat_ic]

Funny. I'd think you'd want to be ignored over going there.

[beknighted]

[Just ignore Dick's strained silence. It only lasts about 3 seconds while Dick internally goes "aaaaaaa" and "AAAAAA" and "IS THAT," but his face doesn't reflect the degree of distress he's feeling. He looks, at most, at a loss for words. But he recovers. That's the point of him, after all.]

It's not my dream vacation spot, no. But T— my brother is in trouble and I need to be there for him.

[acro_bat_ic]

Wow. Some brotherly love, huh?

[beknighted]

Don't you have any siblings?

[Just... checking......]

[acro_bat_ic]

Should I? [She's heard about Robin - but she predates him, in her canon.]

[ichoosefight]

Please promise me you'll come when you can and make Tim stop brooding? He's seriously starting to freak me out here.

lol super embarrassed I didn't check the canon quota

[beknighted]

My presence would not improve that situation, unfortunately. However, it seems I won't be showing up after all. You're on your own, Steph. I'm sorry.

I am the saddest :'c I would have said if I'd seen this yesterday

[ichoosefight]

Lucky you. You're both lucky you have me to tell you when you're going off the deep end.

in my defense I had intended to app like 3 months ago, not now, but /INDICATES ORIGINAL MISSIVE

[beknighted]

Yeah, that is really helpful. [That's gentle sarcasm.]

/LAMENTS REGARDLESS

[ichoosefight]

Batboys, I swear. And you're supposed to be the cheery one.
