[ When all is said and done, the place really does clean up pretty nicely. No visible cluttery mess aside from that half-assembled Christmas tree in the corner of the living room, and there’s appropriate mood music on in the background. Make yourself at home and grab some food before it’s gone. ]

[ There's definitely a heavier chill outside when the doors open up than he'd really been planning on subjecting Babs to, but already the change in atmosphere has him feeling a little calmer. Damian gets the tower, the bathroom, and most of the garage, but this is his spot. Fortified, Grayson-approved, and sporting a pretty unarguably spectacular view of Manhattan.

He heads over to the chest to find her a blanket, stealing a not-quite-subtle glance in her direction to look for a reaction. ]

...Don't keep me waiting, Babs. What do you think?

[The chill is actually pretty nice. Being cooped up with a fever for the better part of the past few days has made her want some fresh air, no matter how warm or cold. Taking that first breath is relieving, liberating, and for a second she just closes her eyes to enjoy it.

When she opens her eyes again, there's a thousand blinking lights staring out at them on the roof. It really is quite amazing, way better than her view of Gotham back home. The Kord Needle's pretty awesome but this? A calming, bright smile lights up her face.]

This is... amazing.

That was kind of the gist of the idea. [ Aw, yis. She gets the blanket draped not-so-subtley around her and then he takes a seat down on the roof beside her. ]

And you said I couldn't put down roots.
