[the video feeds turns on to a pair of big eyes staring into the screen from behind a pair of gold-colored goggles, before they blink and the Guide is pulled back enough to reveal Bart's smiling face]Neat! This is like an omnicom, only not. I mean, I guess that's kinda expected when you're on a big huge spaceship and there's all sorts of aliens and

Dude. Can you like, be quiet? I thought KF can talk my ears off, but you just take the cake for not being able to stop talking.

[notwhelmed]

Yeah. Whelmed. Not underwhelmed or overwhelmed. Just. Whelmed.

No. I mean I help build the batarangs on my free time, but I do have an agenda outside of the kevlar uniform. Haha, his can get pretty bad. I guess that's better then the Bats...who doesn't joke.

[accelerated]

Whelmed. I like it!

Oooh, they must be really hard to put together. I tried to take one apart one time but Robin took it away and yelled at me. --Does Batman even know how to smile? I mean, it might actually be scarier if he did, but still!

[notwhelmed]

[Another joining his English butchering team.]

Naw. After the first time, it gets pretty easy. [But Dick is a genius so...] He..does? I think based on what everyone keeps saying, Bats back where I'm from is...nicer? [WOW.]

[accelerated]

Is that even possible?! I thought Batman's whole thing was to be as terrifying as possible. I mean, when he gets mad, he gets really mad! I had to help him once and I thought he was just gonna keep yelling at me in that Batman way he has but I guess it wasn't so bad when all was said and done! A world where Batman is scarier than himself would be scary all by itself!

[notwhelmed]

Well yeah. But he's also, you know, a person too. [He plays basketball with him out of costume. How cool is that right?] He's scary, but he knows when to praise and when to talk to use in his not batvoice. Or something like that. [Shrugs.]

[accelerated]

Right! I guess anyone'd get tired of being really scary all the time. Must be something about him, cause Robin really likes hanging out with him a lot too. I can never hang out with the Flash for too long, myself!

[notwhelmed]

I don't know. I guess we got it lucky. [Roy doesn't like hanging out with Green Arrow.] I'd think you'd like hanging out with your mentor though. Aqualad and Kid Flash seemed fine with theirs.

I do like-- liked-- my mentor is amazing! It's just not the Flash cause we argue too much and they say we're so alike but I don't see it at all cause we're totally different--

[accelerated]

Grife! I bet if you're just the first Robin and there's a Kid Flash then your Flash is different and that must be why they get along! It makes sense now!

[notwhelmed]

[Robin totally gets the feeling that 'they' are right and Bart just doesn't realize it. Why is he not surprised.]

I thought we were trying to not tell first Robin so we don't screw up the whole time thing. Now I can assume that someone will be replacing our mentors in the future or something.

[accelerated]

Aw, no! I mean, Batman is always Batman and nothing really changes so just forget I said anything! I still don't wanna mess up a future that's not even in the same universe so if I just don't tell you anything else you won't turn into apes. Phew, that was close, though.

[notwhelmed]

[He should facepalm at this. But he just giggles.] No worries. I'm still Robin, so ape crisis totally adverted. Huh, would the opposite of adverted be verted?

[accelerated]

Okay, but if you start craving bananas, you might be in trouble. Hmmm, maybe! Verted... Misverted? Unverted? This is hard!

[notwhelmed]

I'll keep that in mind. Naw. It has to be verted. Because when you take the prefix. It means the opposite. [RUINING ENGLISH. What do.]

[accelerated]

Oh, I get it! That makes a lot more sense, then! Does everybody talk like that in your universe?
