Looks like my free ride is over. I'm still not sure about these guilds, though.

Has anyone here decided to join the Alliance? What made you choose them?

I want to keep being a hero, but I have a bad history with fucking adults telling me I can only do it if I officially register with their way of doing things.

I just don't know if I can trust they're really good.

[The video opens on a handsome young man, with slightly olive skin, messy black hair and blue eyes. Not that there aren't plenty of those around right now. He's outside with the sounds of children playing off to the side and birds in the trees. The Diadem Hotel can be seen in the distance, but it looks like he's in some kind of park.]

Man, what is it with these things and not liking certain nicknames? Nobody ever calls me Richard, but no. Can't use Dick. Somebody might think I take myself seriously.

[The grin has just the right amount of self-depreciation, but the eyes never lose their amusement in the least.]

Anyway, yeah. I'm Dick Grayson. I'm from Gotham back home, not that that's likely to mean much to most folks here, but I've been living in Blüdhaven for the past couple of years. Again, not that that's going to mean much to anybody. But, I came in with the last confluence and have been trying to take all of this in. [He huffs out a laugh and shakes his head.] This whole 'hero' thing is really pretty weird. I'm not a hero. I'm just a guy who showed up here with his dog!

[There's the sound of a bark at his side and Dick's grin widens, glancing down beside him.] Speaking of dogs. You want to meet everybody, Haley?

[The camera shakes a bit as he repositions the phone to show off a small, grey puppy with white socks and belly, though missing one leg.] Everybody, this is Haley. Haley, this is everybody.

[Haley may or may not be impressed, but she leans forward, sniffing at the phone. And the camera. So everybody gets a good look at puppy nose and hears the puppy snuffles.]
