[Hey Barge, it's Tim! Except he's... broadcasting from Dick's journal. In Dick's room. And he's younger than the Tim who's usually on the Barge, looking maybe a little slimmer and shorter than usual, with shorter hair and generally looking less... mature teenager who's been through some shit and more lol I am a shy little nerd.

He's done some network stalking, fully explored Dick's apartment ~~and stashed the Robin costume somewhere safe and changed into normal clothes that look just a little too big for him~~, and (mostly) satisfied that this isn't some elaborate scheme by some villain has decided to say hi to the Barge at large.]

Hey, I'm Tim. I'm filling in for Dick for now, but I guess we're both here normally anyway? [He knows, he's checked and man it's weird to see and hear yourself in threeish years on old video feed.]

How does that work, exactly? Running into yourself never seems to work out whenever it happens in fiction.

Anyway. Does anyone have any information about the ship? I'd love to get a look at some of the schematics. This is way different from anything we have back home. [Especially since he's just a boring teenager from New Jersey right guys. :V]

[Private to Rorschach]

Hey. I guess you probably know by now, but Dick's not around, so, if you need anything, let me know and I'll see what I can do.

[ooc: Replies will be coming from

ikeptstaringatyou. Tim is about fifteen and is from before his life became TERRIBLE so say hello to slightly happier less crushed by the world Robin Tim.]

[So, Dean is decidedly, obviously more wary than he normally makes a habit of when his video feed clicks on.]

It floats and it's a pain in the ass. What more d'you need to know? And how the sh- How's that even work? [Are you Dick or are you Tim or are you Dick as Tim or what even what.]

[Tim, being the little creep he usually is, notices the wariness, but doesn't directly comment on it, instead choosing to approach this without making it worse.]

You mean, why am I here now for Dick, but an older me is here the rest of the time?

[Probably for the better; Dean's been kind of jumpy since he realized what is going on with this flood. Jumpy hunters are never a good thing.]

Why any of it. You're both already here, what's the point in swapping?

[To be fair, he doesn't really expect Tim to have an answer, but his mouth is just going without checking in with his brain right now. As per usual.]

This is obviously just my theory, so don't quote me on it or anything, but I'd guess the flood is supposed to be bringing in siblings or people that are basically family to us back home. Dick and I don't have any other siblings - [Which at this point is technically accurate, since they don't know Jason's alive, Cass hasn't been adopted yet and no one has any idea Damian's been around this whole time.] So we're each other. I'm not really sure when Dick is from timeline wise, but I'd guess he's closer to me than the me who's usually here, just like how Tim's an older version of Dick than the one who's here normally.

... Basically, the important thing is, we're the only ones we've got. [Also they're pretty crazy codependent and tight even when they do have other siblings, plus because of how things have happened on the Barge, so there's that too.]

[Dean tries to follow the ins and outs of that, really he does, but Tim finishes up with something that is all too familiar to the hunter, and he huffs out a breath to keep from doing or saying something more unfortunate, attention span gone.]

That's all a little too twisty for my blood. Anyone giving you any trouble so far?

Nope. [Psh, trouble, he can handle trouble.] You're Dean Winchester?

[Look, he pretty much has to ask, it's coded into his DNA. He's as willing, however, to take the reply at face value. Then his eyes narrow slightly at his full name.]

Yeah, guess I am. That make a difference?

[It's just that his name gets him into a lot of trouble back home.]

[Tim's just a network stalker. :V]

No. I just like knowing who I'm talking to.

And do you now?
