1st Leap | This would be funny if it wasn't actually happening

[A → Action; 340 Brady Lane: Early Morning]

[There's a lot of things wrong with this morning. A lot of things wrong. For one, this isn't his bed. He knows this because he's had his bed for how long? Anyways, this isn't his bed. Second, last time he checked, he had some dashing and lovely scars to go with his whole vigilante image. Now how in the

C is for Caped Crusaders. Placeholder for later :)

[Bruce is just walking down the street, hands in his pockets. He'd taken a late lunch break--he had so much on his mind and just wanted to be alone. But brooding in the daytime seemed . . . well, weird.

He starts looking at the "scenery" and . . . that's when he sees Dick and freezes.]

Dick?!

[He takes a few tentative steps towards the porch. Color him shocked--he wasn't expecting you to end up here, Dick.]

HOHOHO I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE.

[notasidedick]

[Oh my god Bruce. Can't you leave the brooding to at night? Sheesh, cheer up a little. It's the daytime and many drone children are out playing...drone children games. Not sure if want actually.

Dick perks up at his name, and a very familiar voice.]

Bruce???

[Colored him more shocked? He gets up from his seated position. Screw tentatives steps Bruce. He's just going to walk straight towards you.]

Only for you, my dear :P

[beyondthecowl]

[For Bruce, brooding is a twenty-four hour a day activity.

Bruce just . . . rushes forward and wraps Dick up in a hug. Yes, Dick, he's happy to see you . . . but he's also not happy that you're in this hell called Mayfield.]

Did you just arrive? How long have you been here?

HURRHURR I AM EASILY AMUSED OK

[notasidedick]

[That's why Dick is there to harass you. Then it's brooding and being annoyed by Dick's antics.

Oh....kay. That might have taken him by quite a bit of surprise. DOES HE HUG BACK? SHOULD HE BE WORRIED? Maybe he'll do both. Awkward hug back.]

Woah. Obviously something screwed with your head a little. Usually I'm the one to initiate hugs. You sick? [Joking aside.] Just arrived really. I woke up here and suddenly I have a family.

[Zipping through the air past Dick is an idiot from Metropolis who just regained his Flight ring, that being said he doesn't know Dick as Dick, but Booster Gold does not do subtle even without his uniform.]

OH LORDY.

[notasidedick]

[This face. All of it.

He's watching you. Considering it's not very hard to miss a man flying around like a derp anyways, so he'll call out to you. BECAUSE HEY. You seem familiar and familiar is good.] Hey. You...up there? [Wow. That sounded really stupid just now.]

Hey, not everyone is from Gotham!

[boostedfailure]

"Yeah?"

[He stops there floating over Dick's lawn]

"Hey... Do I know you?"

He knows people from Metropolis. >:T

[notasidedick]

[Oh hey. You can stand on it you know. His lawn won't eat you or anything dude. Sheesh.]

I'm trying to figure that out right now actually. [STARING :|]

[notsogreatwall]

[ Sleeping next to the drone wasn't nearly as bad as sleeping by Reaver. Then again, it seems the two rarely spent a minute in the same house at the same time (and sometimes she would just crash outside on the porch or on the couch in the living room anyhow).

Meiling rolls over onto the newly-vacated spot, murmuring something about how warm it was and how it was too early and that she wasn't going to let him destroy the mansion.

--this is perfectly normal sleep talk. Hush. ]

[notasidedick]

[Well sleeping with Dick means probably cuddling. A lot of it from him. But he rather give the bed to you then make you sleep on the porch or couch. And his sleeping hours are pretty questionable as is.]

...Destroy the what?

[He's still on the floor, eyebrow raised.] Hey...[Does he really want to wake her up?]

[notsogreatwall]

[ The haze is lifting from her mind as she stirs, finally turning over onto her back to stretch. ] --sound funny. Sore throat? [ It's mostly mumbled, but she is wondering why the drone sounds different this morning. ]

[notasidedick]

My throat is fin-did you say I sound funny? [He probably should assume that she just doesn't recognize his voice at all. Still, he raises an eyebrow at his suddenly appointed wife.]

[crazyclownwoman]

[Hmm...Dick Grayson why does that sound fam-

..ahahah! Laughter.]

Hiyah ! Welcome to Mayfield!

[Do you remember her Dick? Come on Robin. Say hello to the crazy clown.]

[notasidedick]

[He recognizes that laughter. Oh. God. What is his life suddenly.]

I feel...thoroughly welcomed. It's impossible when you sound so happy and welcoming.

[Is he being sarcastic or not? One can only wonder.]

[crazyclownwoman]

Aw, aren't you the sweetest. I knew there was a reason I liked you better then then the Bat.

[notasidedick]

Well, I was always the charmer type. [He rolled his eyes, but this is not useful information because this is a phone call.]

Should I take that as a compliment?

B

[poisonivyforyou]

...Grayson... [It just doesn't click in yet.]

[notasidedick]

Is my last name. [I HOPE YOU WEREN'T THINKING OF GETTING A GOOD ANSWER FROM THAT.]

[poisonivyforyou]

[She really wasn't, it wasn't even a question to be honest.]

I know I've read that name somewhere. [Like in the Batman comics the town has oops]

[notasidedick]

You probably have.

[If you've read the comics here, probably. But even then, if you kept up with the news in Gotham, you had to have heard his name pop up somewhere.]
