[Dick's keeping his voice as level and normal as possible, which really probably just gives it an edge to anyone familiar enough with him of there's something not quite right going on, but. Oh well.] I'm going to be in the gym for the next hour or so, if anyone's interested in sparring.

[And that said, he's now switching over to filters to properly express his akkldngdskktjadds;kl by being clipped and borderline Batvoiceish because clearly this is the best way to cope with things, right? Right.]

[Filtered to Tim, Steph, and Cassie]

She's not from our world. Her parents intervened when the Waynes were being attacked and died instead of them. If she knows why she's here, she's being evasive about it, which means she's an inmate. I don't know specifically why, yet- [Although he maybe has some ideas. :|] but I guess we'll find out eventually.

Obviously it's up to you about how much you want to tell her about back home, but keep that in mind. She's not the same person.

[Private to Kon]

What do you know about Barbara Gordon? [Maybe she's from your universe. :|]

[Private to Jim]

She's not the Barbara Gordon from my world. [She barely knows who I am and she's totally an inmate what do Jim. :c]

[Private to Shego]

Are you sure you're not up for violent paintball?

[Oh well it's okay when it's dubious therapy for somebody else. B|]

I've.....actually calmed down a whole bunch since that conversation but yeah, I could be.

Private

[batmanschmatman]

Or just something. We don't need to talk or anything, I just don't think I can sit around in my room twiddling my thumbs right now.

Private

[gotgreenmagic]

...

Violent paintball it is. I'm already up here, come meet me.

[voice]

[deadliestviper]

[She is not familiar enough with him to notice something's wrong, luckily. The only clue she has is his brusqueness.] Right now? I'll be there in five minutes, let me grab a t-shirt.

[voice]

[batmanschmatman]

Sounds good. [He's already on his way there.]

[voice]

[deadliestviper]

[She's there in four, looking him up and down, making careful note of his expression and body language. Concluding he's not in the best mood, she greets him with a nod.] Need to go a little harder this time? Because you sure look like it.

Private

[psychic_hotline]

[Yeah, so, this is a change from yesterday.]

What's going on, Dick?

[She's not going to specifically say 'I notice Kirk implied you know Barbara in a positive sense, but she's obviously an Inmate and putting up a front' because she figures you credit her with the intelligence to know all those things :|]

Private

[batmanschmatman]

[He does, don't worry. :c]

It's... complicated. [Hn not even sure where to begin explaining the level of whyyyy right now.] She's from an alternate, possibly parallel universe to mine. I know a woman a lot like her back home.

Private

[psychic_hotline]

...

The Barbara Gordon you know wouldn't be an Inmate.

[ichoosefight]

I'll see you in the gym. [ She doesn't really want to talk about it. :/ ]

[batmanschmatman]

[Well he's already hanging out down there so. :c]

spaaam;

[ichoosefight]

[ She's up in a matter of minutes. When she spots him she waves. ]

You completely worn out yet?

[Private]

[wemaketheworld]

[Yeah, that's...not right. Even Rorschach can tell when people he regularly interacts with are off somehow.

Granted, normally he doesn't really bother with a follow-up, but if he's going to lose his People, he should probably keep better tabs on the ones he's got left.]

Could be.

[Yeah. It's not like he hasn't been spending more time than usual in there lately anyway.]

[Private]

[batmanschmatman]

[Rorschach, you're the best inmate. :C Dick tries to pull it together a little more for his benefit, because he's always conscious of making sure Rorschach's not going to get the impression that Dick's too wrapped up in his own stuff to be a resource if he needs it.]

We could head up to the CES, if you'd rather. [Fresh air is good sometimes, right? Right.]

[Private]

[wemaketheworld]

[Richard pokes and prods exactly as much as he needs to; he knows he's around, there's really no need for the concern.]

Wouldn't mind change of scenery.

[It could help? Maybe?]

[Private]

[peektuttut]

Is she...Batwoman? [By which he means the Batman of her Gotham and Dick. Dick. That is horrifying. D:]

[Private]

[batmanschmatman]

Batgirl. She only met me once, the night my parents were killed. [THIS WHOLE THING IS HORRIFYING OKAY.]

[Private]

[peektuttut]

[The fuck is happening right now. :C] Superboy's world? [But that doesn't sound right, he just wants to navigate all the options.]

Private

[captain_jtkirk]

There's something I wasn't expecting.

Private

[batmanschmatman]

Tell me about it. [Are you up for another escape attempt because this is just getting ridic. :c]

She's from a world where her parents were killed instead of Bruce's. She only met me once, the night my parents were killed, so needless to say, no Robin, no Batman, and she's an inmate.

Re: Private

[captain_jtkirk]

How's that affecting you?

[voice]

[demigoddess]

At least she seems nice. [ You go Cassie. ]

[Private - voice]

[batmanschmatman]

What did you find out?

Private.

[an_abomination]

[Assumes that's why he's asking.] She's not from my world but she doesn't seem so bad. On the surface it doesn't seem like she belongs as an Inmate. [The same could be said for him.]

Private.

[batmanschmatman]

Thanks. [Sorry Kon, someone's in a really lousy mood. :c]
