[Dick has been very much keeping to himself since Gotham port, both on the network and in person. He looks kind of resigned when he clicks on the video feed, but tries to force a believable smile anyway.]

This is Dick. [He's gotten smart about introducing himself with his full name and home town on public filters. :V] If there's anyone out there from back home, [Bruce. :C] I'd appreciate hearing from you.

[Added Later: Private to Tim]

Are you around?

How about old friends?

[batmanschmatman]

Man, it is good to see you. How've you been?

[toldastory]

I'm well. How are you doing? And don't tell me you're fine. It's the one lie I'm good at.

[batmanschmatman]

Honestly, it's been a really rough couple weeks. We maybe took a field trip to Gotham.

Oh. Dick [Martha looks worried, and if she were there, there would be all the hugging.[

We got out okay, and Bruce came back so we left things in good hands. It was just, you know. Hard. To see it like that after this long.

But seriously, I'll be okay. How's things on your end?

[toldastory]

Well, that's one good thing. Did you get to see him at least?

And we're fine. I mean, things are mental, but we're fine. We're in Scotland, if you ever want to come visit.

Just for a minute. I'm talking to him now, though, so that's something. [And he will totally take what he can get at this point. :c]

I'd love to. What's going on?

[toldastory]

I'm glad you're getting a chance to talk to him now at least, even if you didn't before.

It's about seven months later for us, Severus is doing his shop, and I'm doing a lot of learning.

[batmanschmatman]

Yeah. It's good to hear from him.

Magic?

[toldastory]

Yep! It's fun. And challenging but fun.
