We've got the superhero costumes

WHO: the blonde Batgirl and you guys!
WHERE: In the City, somewhere
WHEN: Not during the trauma tentacles. Doesn't really matter, specify a date if you need it!
WARNINGS: Violence
SUMMARY: Rampant vigilantism
FORMAT: Choose one, I started with both

There was nothing quite like a night on the town. The bright lights on the streets so far below, the wind through her hair as she swung between buildings, the sounds of late-night-early-morning traffic , and the ocassional girly screams of would-be muggers having their arms twisted by a chick in a black and purple cape.

Yes, this was the life. One of them, anyway.
red_robin: (Oh shit moment)

WELP I sure am the latest, forgive me D:

He's impressed, more or less, but he pushes that thought of his head. He's trying to play this completely detached, because WOW did it get messy the last time he didn't. Also, he...doesn't know how he feels. Not anymore. He did, once upon a time, but...it's so different now. Complicated. Not to mention this is a different world, and who knows what the hell she's been up to here.

Did she remember him being here before? Were they....what? Anything?

Probably not.

He couldn't figure out if he hoped they were or they weren't.

Wait, wasn't he pushing that out of his mind? Jesus.

He finds her again, perched in a way he's sure Spoiler never could have managed. But she isn't Spoiler, he reminds himself, and he isn't Robin, and they may not be grown ups but they're not kids, either.

He doesn't join her, but he calls up to her. "Hide and seek, huh? I'd say you have an unfair advantage, considering the terrain."

OH YAY THANK YOU TT_____TT

His mouth twitches, but he doesn't smile. It's not really something he does a lot of anymore, and when he does, he's faking it anyway.

But she'd know. Even with the cowl covering most of his head, she would know, so he doesn't try.

"Enjoy it while you can," he says, but it's a throwaway line.

They met for waffles, didn't they? Boy, and that was...a thing. This was a whole different thing, and he found himself uncertain. It was times like this he was really glad he wore a mask.

"Been a bit, yeah. You miss it?"
red_robin: (Psht whatever)

do you have plurk btw?

He tries to keep his face neutral at that comment and isn't entirely successful. It ruffles his feathers.

"Someone named Stephanie Brown, yeah," he says. He's sorry as soon as the words are out of his mouth, but he still half means it.

"Or maybe I was just curious."
red_robin: (Blah blah blah shove it)

"Yeah," he says, "you're</> sure."

He isn't. He never quite has been, although how much of that feeling NOW is related to his own sense of guilt about things with her, and how much is genuine concern, is anyone's guess. Even he wouldn't be able to say.

Wow, he sure hasn't turned this around at all, has he?

He shrugs. "Just about you. I don't know you. At least, I don't know that I know you."

There's a lot of implication there. He means he doesn't know if they're even from the same place, or how long she's been here, or...if he can trust her. But he can't figure out how to just ASK either. He's never been good at that kind of thing.
red_robin: ([Steph] What is this even)

I need more icons of both of them.

"No. It's not."

He agrees, and if her words cut him, he doesn't show it. It's his own fault they came to this, in a lot of ways. Although it's hers, too, and...Bruce's. Batman's. He doesn't blame Batman for everything - hell, not for half the things he should - but some of what went wrong with him and Stephanie is either directly or indirectly Bruce's fault. Tim has a good memory for things like that.

"I am proud of you," he says, almost automatically.

He has a good memory for things like that, too.
red_robin: (Sigh.)

L-LOL

He sighed. Jesus, wasn't that good enough?

"I remember," he said, anyway, though he didn't feel like it. He was afraid it wasn't going to make things any less awkward.
