Ivy's been taken down to Zero, the hostages were mostly unharmed, but Hoffman's in the infirmary for some injuries sustained during the rescue. Graham and Stildyne were both killed and are recovering in the infirmary.
[And that's all he wants to say about it, because people getting killed because he asked them to help = terrible.]
[Private to Rorschach]
So, I've got your file. Would you like to meet in person, or talk over the network?
[Spam for Jim]
[A while after brooding some and generally being a Bat and remembering oh right, this is why I said fuck it, I don't want to be a team leader anymore, screw the Titans and then the Outsiders and yeah what's wrong with me, Dick is going to wander over to floor four to check on his stupid, easily seduced bff who he'd recently punched in the stomach. Sorry about that, bro. :c]

Either way, Dick can have another point in the "pros" column.]
Surprising; most see it as entertainment. A hobby. Not a calling.
[...Well. That's how he sees them, anyway; his interpretations of others aren't always right.]
[spam!]
[Someone could make the "you've been doing this since you were eight and are therefore probably so indoctrinated you can't tell the difference" argument, but really, he loves being a vigilante and isn't quitting unless he gets killed or crippled. >>]
[spam!]
[Translation: I'm glad you understand. He still doesn't trust him, but at least he's decided they're on the same side, more or less.
He pauses, considering.]
Talked to another costumed hero earlier. Goes by Edward Nygma. Assume you've heard of him.
[spam!]
[spam!]
[Prooobably not, no. :/
Your inmate's going to try to interrogate you, Dick. Hope you don't mind. How else is he going to be able to determine if Nygma's a worthwhile ally?]
[spam!]
[Watch him tapdance around the issues, see Eddie, Dick doesn't hate you. :V]
[spam!]
Not the same; can be familiar with the motions and still be a failure.
[spam!]
I don't work with him a lot, honestly. He's from farther ahead in our timeline. But from what I do know, he's competent. He works more as a consulting detective than actual vigilante, but he does more or less the same thing.
[spam!]
...Assume you have questions.
[spam!]
[spam!]
[Carefully; this feels like a trap of some kind, or at least a game he's yet to figure out the rules for.]
[spam!]
[Namely lol Slade is on board have you chatted with him at all. :V]
[spam!]
[Question and answer time. Okay, he's familiar with this game; he leans back in his chair slightly, enough to give more distance between him and Dick without sacrificing perfect posture.]
[spam!]
[That's really all he wanted to know about. He's got his file, he's more or less got all the information he needs for now.]
[spam!]
Not much for existentialism.
There are more costumed heroes than two already made aware of?
[spam!]
[spam!]
[...Because he's clearly in a position to be demanding things.]
[spam!]
[spam!]
[So he knows who he can trust around here, but he's not going to say that. Instead Dick can have an inscrutable look, one that pretty much screams "it's none of your business".]
