Well, that was fun. You know, it's the little things like normal clothes and non-irradiated living conditions that you really miss when you get dumped into wastelands.

If anyone needs me, I'm going to be drinking water and then catching up on some sleep.

[Private to Costigan]

How're things?

[Private to Wally]

How was life on the good ship Barge?

[Private to Donny]

Better or worse then zombie port?

[Private to Hayley]

Hey.

Barring an identity crisis or extenuating psychological circumstances, we have a deal.

Excellent.

[He stands up and packs away the supplies.] I'm going to go take a nap. You take it easy, okay?

[ She flops back onto the bed. ] Go, sleep! I promise I won't bleed to death while you're gone.

[batmanschmatman]

Good. I'd be really upset if you did.

How sweet.

Would you rather I threw a party?

Mostly I just hope you'll make sure I'm actually dead before telling people. I learned my lesson last time.

[batmanschmatman]

[... Awkwardddd.] I'll see what I can do.

[ Oh right, rather fresh for you, isn't it. Joking fail. ]

Oooor don't, your choice.

[Mr. sentimental loser is going to just stand there for a minute.]

This is probably the dehydration and sleep dep making me all mushy, and I know I've said it before, but I'm glad everything worked out okay.

[ That actually earns him a little smile. ]

Me too. And I'm glad you took the deal. [ Yeah, that's sentimental bat-talk for 'I'm glad we became friends'. ]

[batmanschmatman]

Me too. [On so many levels he's glad he took the deal, but. Being friends with Steph is pretty cool.]

[ She's quiet for a moment, just looking up at him all sentimental and gooey. ]

...

Is this a hug moment? This sort of feels like a hug moment.

[He puts down the first aid kit and holds out his arms.] C'mere you.

[ She hops up to give him a tiny, 5' 4" bear hug. ]

spam; I also need a hug icon :|a

[batmanschmatman]

[And she's getting hugged right back. Dick likes hugs. c:]

spam; Everyone needs a hug icon.

[ichoosefight.livejournal.com]

[ She gives him a little squeeze, wincing at the pain in her arm but otherwise ignoring her injuries. ]

Glad we had this talk.

spam; I should just make a list of all the icons I need.

[batmanschmatman]

Me too.

[He has adopted you, Steph. You officially have an older brother to lineface at you when you don't let someone look at your injuries.]

spam; Do it.

[ichoosefight.livejournal.com]

You go sleep. I'll drink a lake.

[ You'll be linefacing a lot, Dick. Enjoy your little sister making you worry all over the place. And possibly bringing you ice cream when you're down. And doing your nails. ]

spam; /gets on this

[batmanschmatman]

[Ice cream makes up for worrying all the time. Dick hugs her a little tighter before letting go, grinning.]

Sounds like a good plan. I'll see you later. You take it easy, okay?

spam; You may also consider copious amounts of fanart.

[ichoosefight.livejournal.com]

[ The free manicures are just a bonus. ]

You too.
