She's only interested in being a (little) shit.]

at this point i've gotten that speech so many times he'd have to break out the thesaurus to avoid repeating himself
eggplanting: (strip away fear)

[personal profile] eggplanting 2023-03-03 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
he keeps trying new things in the foolish hope that eventually something will stick
it wont!
but its cute that he tries

and he probably knows if he DID try to repeat his speech id start quoting along like its shadowcast night at a rocky horror screening
eggplanting: (and I wanted it)

rude

[But fair.

Steph knows she's good, and she's gotten even better at the detective stuff in the past couple of years, but Jason's been in this game far longer than she has and is capable of keeping Batman off his trail. If he didn't want her to find him, she likely wouldn't be able to.

But he wants her to find him, so after giving him a little while to get settled, she dons her Batgirl suit to take off into the night.

The good thing about having been operating in the city for several months now is that she's built up some decent connections, people who'll tell her if they spot anything strange, including a man that roughly fits Jason's description, wearing a domino mask.

Once she suspects she's getting closer, she swings by a diner to fill her thermos (Bat themed, of course) with coffee, so that when she does spot Jason while she's up on a higher rooftop, she can drop the thermos on him.]


Heads up.

[She's assuming he's been aware of her presence for at least a few minutes and will therefore have plenty of reaction time to catch said thermos.

Hopefully.]

[Oh good, minor crisis averted. Tim would've been so annoyed if she managed to piss off a version of Jason. It's a miracle they've managed to play nice with one version for so long, she just hopes that this doesn't throw too much of a wrench in the works, as it were.]

I'm a woman of my word.

[When she wants to be.

Steph drops down silently next to Jason, her boots absorbing most of the impact to save her from having to do a silly little roll. It's cooler when she gets to do a proper superhero landing.

Not that she needs to impress Jason, but it doesn't hurt to look as cool and competent as possible when dealing with unknown variables, like ex-Robins who may or may not hold a grudge against other ex-Robins.]


You doing recon, or should I be ready to bust some heads?

[From a quick assessment of the situation, it certainly looks like the sort of spot that shady deals go down, and she's hardly opposed to beating up some dealers, even if it's likely serving Jason's goals rather than being for the greater good. Or whatever.]
eggplanting: (took a shiner from the fist)

[After another few seconds of scoping out the alley — which might be cover for weighing up exactly how close she wants to get to Jason — Steph settles back beside him. She's not officially on patrol, as much as they have any sort of 'official' system, so she's not too worried about hanging out for a little bit.]

That's not the worst welcome committee you could've gotten, all things considered.

[It's a fairly neutral statement. Steph doesn't even know exactly what universe this Jason is from or how things went down there; there's clearly some antagonism there, she just won't make a judgement until she knows more.]

Did mini-you tell you that most of us work at his bar? It's pretty fun, we have weekly karaoke nights.

[Does she mean the bar itself? The Batfolk specifically? She'll let Jason decide.]
eggplanting: (????)

[That question actually earns a genuine pause, Steph looking somewhat like a confused puppy as she does some mental math.]

Not to make you feel special, but congrats on being the first person to make me realize I'm technically twenty one now. If we're counting months from when I left home, not when my birthday month is.

[It makes more sense to her that it should be counted as a progression of months, rather than sticking to an arbitrary date when those dates didn't line up with how it was back home. So enough of them have passed that were she at home, her birthday would have rolled around.

It should maybe be weird that she missed it, but birthdays have never been much of a thing, in her life. Her parents would forget more often than not, when she was little, and while Crystal is making more of an effort now, it's hard to undo years of neglect.

(She doesn't think about the false memories from last month. She's gotten very good at not thinking about that.)]


Anyway, I think Robin would tell you that serving alcohol and drinking it are different. Still probably illegal? I never checked, it's not as if we signed employment contracts.

[The bar is basically for money laundering and a cover to eavesdrop on criminals; they aren't doing things by the book.]
eggplanting: (glory and gore go hand in hand)

There's a recipe for disaster.

[This is a joke. Mostly. She's fond enough of their pre-existing Jason that she's willing to extend some of that to this new Jason, even if he hasn't earned any fondness yet. So she'll make jokes and be friendly, as long as he doesn't seem like he's going to be a dick.

The whole situation is a weird one and only serves to remind her how... on the outskirts she can be, sometimes, with the rest of the Bats. None of this drama has anything to do with her, except for the fact that people she cares about have gotten hurt.]


We were poor. [said with a bit of a rueful look, even if there's still amusement there.

She shrugs, too, after a second.]
It seems like he was kinda the last Robin, where he's from. His issues are with B, not us, and as far as I'm concerned the whole 'no killing' rule is kinda bullshit so...

[So while she may not agree with all Jason's methods, she doesn't have the same moral opposition that Bruce or Tim or Cass might. She understands why Bruce doesn't kill and why he's extended that to the rest of them, but she also thinks Jason should be allowed to kill the Joker.

As a treat.]
