001 [video] introduction

[batmanschmatman]

So, I guess I should probably get around to introducing myself or something. I'm Dick, and I'm a new warden around here. Seems like an... interesting place so far.

... Sooooo, does anyone know when I'm actually supposed to get assigned an inmate to keep an eye on?

Comments

action; fine with me!

[batmanschmatman]

So basically, keep all the embarrassing Timmy stories to myself.

action; \o/

[peektuttut]

Yeah, basically. -- Wait, what embarrassing stories?

...And, uh. Be wary of anything he might say.

action;

[batmanschmatman]

I've got a few.

You know, this whole 'giving me advice about what to do' would work a lot better if you were less cryptic.

action;

[peektuttut]

It's just complicated with him, Dick. He's a killer, he's messed up, and I trust him, but at the same time, I don't trust him at all. [He thinks Sylar'll take everything he's said and try to turn Dick against him. :c] Just - be careful of him. He's already gotten to Cissie and Steph.

[Mister paranoia is here.]

action;

[batmanschmatman]

Tim, don't worry about it. Eternal optimism aside, I've kind of learned my lesson about blindly trusting people. Seriously this time. [AKA Tarantula, wth was that.]

And besides, I've got a bit of Bat paranoia going on too. Just apparently not as bad as you.

action;

[peektuttut]

[They will just never talk about that ever, right. Tim nods. Shhh it's not his fault he's turning into Bruce. (Well maybe it is.)] All right, okay. Good.

[Aaaand he's rubbingthe back of his neck because this is the worst part.] There's, uh. One other, kind of important part about the Barge. Might not have come up.

action;

[batmanschmatman]

Andddd that would be...?

action;

[peektuttut]

That in some other universe our entire lives are fictionalized and recorded in comic books and...really, really awful movies. That's, uh. That's how Hayley and Martha figured it out.

action;

[batmanschmatman]

That's... interesting.

[Which really means wtf since when.]

action;

[peektuttut]

[Dick you are getting a LOOK.] Way to downplay it.

action;

[batmanschmatman]

It's downplay it or watch my brain explode. Take your pick.

action;

[peektuttut]

...Yeah, okay. [He freaked out mightily. :c] It hasn't come up much since I found out, at least. [And he's just. Going to snort.] There are these terrible movies, though - I mean, you'll want to laugh and be offended all at once.

action;

[batmanschmatman]

... Okay, now I'm getting a little weirded out. How bad are we talking?

action;

[peektuttut]

[Tim is just going to shake his head and cover his face to hide another snort.] Bad. It's campy and terrible and mostly wrong. I think you might have to watch this. [Because he needs to share the pain.]

action;

[batmanschmatman]

If I suffer some kind of mental breakdown because of this, I'm blaming you. Just so we're clear.

action;

[peektuttut]

I'll probably join you if I have to watch it a third time. [Because Batman & Robin causes all kinds of mental stress. For everyone.]

action;

[batmanschmatman]

How'd you get your hands on them?

action;

[peektuttut]

The library.

action;

[batmanschmatman]

They're just sitting around for anyone to watch?

action;

[peektuttut]

They've been sitting in my room since I found them.

action;

[batmanschmatman]

I knew there was a reason we kept you around.

action;

[peektuttut]

Apparently, I've got my uses.

action;

[batmanschmatman]

Apparently.

So... How's this place been treating you? [Concerned Older Brother Mode is go for launch.]

action;

[peektuttut]

[He missed old!Dick. :c]It's been worse. Some of the floods and ports can get really...awful. It all depends.

...I have a girlfriend?

action;

[batmanschmatman]

[Join the club, Tim. ;; ]

Really? Who's the lucky lady?
