AU!Batwoman!Dana Tan, homeless indefinitely

[timeshare_batwoman]

What was the point of making this account when you have no intention of playing me anywhere? Why bother getting friends for that pathetic twip I used to be; she already has enough. I need to go back to Gotham, before Max gets overworked.

...oh, and don't even think of using any icons of her for me. I'm not that girl anymore.

[arches an eyebrow as she looks her over] Sometimes they like to bide their time.

[timeshare_batwoman]

I'm afraid she is. If she's just waiting, though, I'd rather she sent me somewhere now and stopped wasting her time with the twit in Nautilus.

[Getting a closer look at the woman, and double-take.]

Commissioner Gordon! What happened to you?!

[bodilesswarrior]

You don't think much of your younger self, huh?

[...okay, no hiding the shock there] Commissioner, huh? [wry, wistful smile] I was considering that. Nice to know I made it that far, somewhere.

What happened...happened quite a while ago.

[timeshare_batwoman]

I was a clueless idiot, too blind and self-centered to see the obvious.

Oh. That's not a temporary injury, then. I was reacting more to- how young you are. Commissioner Gordon from where I am is starting to get speculation on when she plans to retire. Not any time soon, I hope. [Despite the history between them, Dana respects Barbara as a police officer and doesn't want to see her replaced.]

[bodilesswarrior]

Everything's more obvious in retrospect.

[a slow nod] Thought that tech looked advanced. I'm glad Gotham still has a Bat to look after it.

You have anyone to work with, besides Max?

[timeshare_batwoman]

That's not an excuse. I was blind and weak.

On the streets? Just Max. We've got the grudging approval and oversight of the Commish and the old man, but with the history, it's not much more than that. We've been talking about recruiting another Batwoman, but haven't found any candidates yet.
