bored and restless muse is bored and restless and MEAN

This number's for you, mun-gal! Don't thank me; Consider it your reward for keeping me out of trouble.

By. Y'know. Keeping me away from everything ever.

Soooooooo yeah. This is totally a reward. Don't make it weird by questioning it.

[Wait. What--]

Doo da da doo da da doo--
And I need you~

[Seriously?]

Doo da da DOO DA DA DOO!
And I miss you~

Doo da doo doo da do--
And now I won-der~

If I should FALL! Into the sky...
Do you think TIME! Would pass me by, ohhhhh~

'Cause you know I'D WALK A THOUSAND MILES
If I could just... see... yoooou...

TONIGHT~

~~[Stop punishing me, Spidey. :(]~~

It was that bad. What happened, your arch enemy designed it?

I wish.

It was awesome at first! Bulletproof, made its own webs, all the coolest stuff. But then it tried to eat people without my permission. Aaaaand then it tried to eat me.

And then I guess somehow it like. Got obsessed with me.

[... and this is one of the reasons Robin is okay with not having superpowers.] That's like something out of an alien horror movie. And it's bad enough just watching those. At least you're okay now, right?

[You are lucky, Robin. You are so lucky.]

That's my life. Sci-fi fantasies of the worst kind are no longer as strange as they're really supposed to be.

Anyway. Yeah, I'm good now, so long as the good mun behaves.

[Except for the dead parents bit.] Oh, I know how that feels at least. I'm friends with a Martian. Which in all honesty is very cool, but aliens are a regular part of the hero gig now. [Man, what happened to just dealing with whack jobs like Joker, Penguin, and Killer Croc.]

I think after your little... performance [TRYING NOT TO LAUGH.] no one would bother putting you through that.

[Well. Dead parents and superpowers that land you into freaky sci-fi level insanity... Robin is relatively lucky, then.

Also WAIT. BRAKES, PUT THEM ON.] Whoa whoa whoa whoa-- Martian?? Outer space, honest to goodness, non-Spielberg produced, true to life, living breathing Martian???

[... he's also the adopted son of a billionaire. So Dick Grayson is very lucky.

AWWWW YEAH THIS IS HIS FAVORITE THING EVER.] Yup, straight from Mars, same as her uncle. Miss M's pretty cool, cute too, but taken. Martian Man Hunter's nice, too.

[YEP. TOTALLY CHILL ABOUT THIS. KNOWING MARTIANS? NO BIGGIE.]

[... Peter would like some of that luck, please and thank you.

He just. He can't even. Aliens. OhGod, he can't nerd out hard enough.]

...Details. Details. Do they talk about what life on Mars is like? Is it-- Did they have to alter anything in their physical makeup to be able to survive on Earth or is the atmosphere on Mars really similar enough that they didn't need a huge biological overhaul in order to be here- Or that could be something that you wouldn't even think about because normal guys don't think about stuff like that and there's no way you could even really ask a Martian weird questions like that because it's like whoa, personal boundaries.

Have they been to Vulcan?

[Sure, hop over to the DC universe and he'll hook you up.

Robin is totally saving this information for later. "Spidey loves aliens." Man, if only Miss M were here.] Uh, Miss M talked about home a few times, seems like an okay place. And they're shape-shifters, so they can alter pretty much anything about their physical bodies. I'm talking down to the blood cells. [... oh, he's so going to mess with you now.] So really, I could be a Martian. And you wouldn't even know it.

But some of us-- them might have been to Vulcan. I haven't. [SO GONNA TROLL.]

[Yeah sure, let me just. Y'know. Get my universe hopping gear.

Shhhh, he's just such a nerd.]

Shape shifters. Duh. That makes so much sense. I mean they ha--

[Wait. Waaaaaait. He's right. Robin could be an alien and who would even be able to tell.]

... Oh, my God. OhmyGod. Batman's an alien too, isn't he? I mean, you guys are just too cool to be anything from Earth. Now I feel like that's just been staring me in the face and I had no clue until now. It's so obvious.

[No problem, Robin can wait.

You're a bigger nerd than he is on electronics.] Sorry, but that information is classified. The government would get a little mad if I told you.

[He didn't even say which government.] But Batman and I are totally whelming, aren't we?

[Okay. Okay. Here we go-- Get ready- It's happening- It's- ..... Okay wait.

Don't even get him started on tech.]

Am I not an exception to the rule? I mean- If the government's gonna decide to clone me ten billion times, they could at least let me know about the aliens that walk among us. I mean, c'mon. Gimme the one break.

You are. You totally are, it's just plain unfair. I call shenanigans.

[Spidey, you should totally come hang out with Robin and KF. You'd get along famously. Give Robin a moment, he has to think on this.] Okay. But remember, it's a matter of huge importance, so make sure you keep your spidey mouth quiet.

Batman and I are human, I was totally messing with you. [And there you have it :D] I'm more than open for shenanigans. Drop by Gotham City sometime, we'll show you around. Always happy to help a fan. By the way, I'm supposed to show you this for some reason.

[Yes please Spidey would like that. Beautiful friendships. Those are the best things.]

... I totally knew that. [No, I don't think he did.] But I will keep my lips sealed. I'm actually pretty good with secrets. Got a big one of my own, after all.

I-- Seriously?? W-Wow, I- Well, I'd need directions. Or a ride. A ride would be probably be better.

... I think that's. ...Yeah. I think that's the greatest thing I've ever seen.

[Robin and Kid Flash could always use more pranksters around.] Of course you did, Spidey-man. Let me take a shot in the dark here and say... your identity?

[Now Robin just gets to brag.] I'll see if we can pick you up in the Batmobile. Where're you from, anyway?

[Meanwhile Robin feels awkward about this.] I've got mixed feelings on it. Mostly because that's my mentor when he's eight.

I was actually thinking more along the lines of "What kind of underwear I've got that works under my tights," but that's one, too.

[He's somewhere between jealous and super excited.] New York. Pick me up anywhere in New York, I'm good.

[He pauses to consider the picture a moment longer........... And his head tilts.] Well. It's less weird for me when I consider the possibility that they're mimicking the other me, and not actually me. ..I guess.

... that's pretty high up on the list of things I didn't need to know. I'm telling you, man, get something a little looser.

[Be jealous, Spidey, they've got their own secret hideout.] All right. Just let me check with Batman. He usually doesn't take it out for pleasure trips. We can race across Gotham to see which is better, your webs or my grappling hook! [Best superhero hang out ever.]

Oh, so you're one of those people who's got like a million of you, too?

[He's smiling under the mask. This whole thing is pretty amusing.] Dude, the things I do during fights and when running around the city? I can't really go much looser.

[Oh, my God, take me to your lair I demand all of the shenanigans within.] Don't call it a pleasure trip when you ask him. Say it's- a favor. Or a, y'know, road trip. Or-- a mission. You guys do that, right? Missions?

Hooboy, you better believe it. Way too many. Most of 'em are older, though. It's a whole thing.

[Why is he talking to Spider-Man about underwear and superhero costumes.] Have you tried boxers?

[He'll have to clear that with Batman first. Gotta clear everything with Batman.] We do missions all the time. Usually just in Gotham, unless the League calls the Team out for a covert one. I'll see what I can do.

[So much line face over here.] The other versions of me either wear green tights, or a speedo.

[Because it's Spider-Man. Conversations with him always go goofy.] Yeah, but like. It bunches. So there's that.

Can I fake a League call to just you??

......... Speedo. Like. Speedo and then just bare legs?

Go commando? [SHRUG. His suit is made of like the best stretchy fabric money can buy, so he has no issues like this.]

Probably not. I mean, unless you can somehow hack into the system. [...] Which I strongly advise against since I got busted for doing that once.

[SHUDDERS.] Yes. Like that.

One word for ya: Chafing. [Well, see. If Spidey could get a suit made out of whatever you've got, then...]

How about I just wave my arms in the air and yell "HELP ME, ROBIN!! HELP MEEEEEEE!!!"?

.... Wow. Yikes. Uh- Good thing you're not that guy.

Well, then I don't know what to tell you. It's not like there's superhero 101 on this. [Talk to Batman, he buys it all.]

Then the League is either going to think you're nuts, or a damsel in distress. And I'd really rather not deal with the teasing from KF on that.

You have no idea how lucky I feel sometimes.

Y'know, a lot of the time, I really wish there was.

I can wear a dress. With frills. Will that help?

I think I can imagine, at least. It's probably how lucky I wish I felt.

You could ask Flash for tips. He's got a costume like yours.

[Spidey, are you serious.] No. I really don't want to have to answer the questions I'll get for that. Especially from Batman.

What, is the superhero thing not going so well?
