WHO: Dick (Robin) and OPEN to people at the Tower.
WHERE: Titans Tower.
WHEN: Backdated to last week? GO WITH THE FLOW! There is no timeline.
WARNINGS: None.
SUMMARY: Dick was poisoned. He only spends time at the Tower for sad reasons.
FORMAT: Quicklog.

[He hadn't really been able to complain when Tim had dragged him to the Tower because he wasn't entirely there, yet.

His mind is back, now, and he feels both completely stupid and useless, and just plain annoyed that he told Tim he'd be staying there until there were no traces of toxin in his blood anymore.

He hadn't planned on really listening, but he'd tried standing up and fleeing subtly not that long ago, and he'd nearly fallen because of the wave of dizziness that had attacked him. He hadn't told Tim -- although this is the infirmary and there are probably cameras -- and he'd silently agreed to really stay in bed for at least a day. And then they'd see.

He really hates staying still and having someone else take care of him.]

(OOC: You can have your char know Dick is there because Tim told them, or have it be a surprise for them, either way work :>)

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

At least I'm a lovable, fun one, [he replies, wiggling his eyebrows before moving off the bed.]

Alright. [He'll be gone for a moment and then come back with a plate of Italian sandwiches and two glasses of milk. Since they're being healthy and all.]

[Dick doesn't have the time to find a way to answer Wally's first comment before Wally's gone and back a few seconds later. He wouldn't have known how to answer, anyway, so it's better that way.

He moves a bit and pushes the covers away so he can sit more comfortably, crossing his legs and putting the plate in front of him.

He's the sick one, he gets to have the sandwiches closer to him. Wally can stretch.]

Somehow, I hadn't thought you were gonna get yourself a sandwich, too. Guess I don't know you well enough, yet.

[Wally puts the glasses down on the bedside table and settles back down on the bed where he can.

He's not going to complain about Dick keeping the plate closer to him. They're more meant for him anyway.]

A meal always tastes better shared, [he shrugs. That and he's not one to pass up food when it's right there in front him but that's something he's mentioned before.] Unless you want to eat all of that by yourself. [Four sandwiches seem a bit much for Dick alone but he could be wrong.]

[Dick chuckles.] I suddenly want to bend over the food and hide it away from you going 'mine, mine' in a creepy voice.

[He takes one of the sandwiches.] But I won't for obvious reasons.

Grab some. I'm not that hungry, no. [He smiles.] Thanks. [And that's all he'll say before he starts munching on the sandwich.]

[Wally raises an eyebrow.] That would be disturbing.

[And trying to imagine Dick being creepy makes him think of a Dick that was creepy. It's not a good thought and he'll stop thinking about it and distract himself with food.]

You're welcome. [He smiles back and grabs himself a sandwich.]

But you'd love me anyway. [Dick answers, simply. Without knowing what Wally is thinking, the idea doesn't disgust him, he just visualises himself and thinks it's stupid and silly, and yes, maybe disturbing, but linking it to his future doesn't happen.]

Makes me think of some sort of zombie. You know 'braaaain braaaaaain' but sandwiches instead.

Or Gollum in The Lord of the Rings, but that's creepy.

[Wally makes a 'mmhm' sound as he takes a bite out of his sandwich.

Now zombies he can get behind and the mental image makes him snort. The next reference he doesn't get, however.]

Lord of the Rings?

[It takes a few seconds for Dick to remember that Wally's from way in the past.

Way in the past when there were no DVDs, he's not sure there were VHS, and Lord of the Rings had no movie. It's really old so the books probably existed, but they're bricks and who reads these, really.

(Okay, Tim very probably read them but it doesn't count.)]

Geez, I keep forgetting you're not from now. It's -- well, I've only watched the first movie. It's some fantasy epic; magic and swords and monsters. People say it's a classic. The movies are really long. [And it shows by his tone of voice that they're really long and not captivating enough to keep Dick seated for that period of time. But that's Dick. Maybe Wally would like them, who knows.]

Anyway, there's a creepy character in there who's all obsessed by a ring.

Huh, sounds interesting. [He's not sure how long 'long' is though and if he'd even have the patience to stay put and watch it.]

Then again all movies here are kind of a novelty to me. [He may be used to it all by now but the technology will probably never stop impressing him.]

So, why is he obsessed with a ring?

[He's not sure if Wally's serious or not about it sounding interesting. He's leaning more toward 'yes' than 'no'.

He takes a few bites of his sandwich and lets crumbs fall on the bed by accident, that he simply swipes off so they fall on the ground when he sees them.]

Everyone is obsessed by the ring in the movie -- it's sort of the whole idea. It's magical and super powerful and everyone wants it while the group of good guys is trying to get rid of it.
