On the Town

[_the_oracle_]

Despite my head pounding and my skin on my right arm starting to vanish to reveal the advanced circuitry beneath, I managed to get myself into something decent for tonight.

{Perhaps something green, Oracle...}I'm not sure what provoked me to listen to the voice, but I ended up in a green velvet dress. At least it... kind of blends with the "

*The communicator beeps*

*looks over, picking it up, switching it on, not entirely sure whom it is*

Oracle here. Go ahead.

[alter_grayson]

"Babs? It's Dick" He's not used to hearing her called Oracle.

[_the_oracle_]

Barbara blinked. So it wasn't a "work" call.

"Dick-- oh-- hello." A smile was already growing on her face. "You ready for transport?"

[alter_grayson]

"Sure am. Can't wait to see you"

[_the_oracle_]

She smiled and went to punching int he coordinates on her computer. "Neither can I. Hang tight. This shouldn't hurt a bit."

With the same technology that the JLA was using, Dick's entire form materialized in a mass of silver swirls before her. This... was definitly intereting. Hims tanding int he clocktower. She silnetly wondered how he would act to the surroundings.

She waited a moment, before turning to him, fully. Her eye briskly traveled over him, her smile still on her face. "It's... definitly nice to see you."

[alter_grayson]

Dick is dressed in a black suit with a light blue shirt and a navy blue, silk tie. He pulls the bouquet of roses from behind his back and holds them out to her.

"Nice to see you too"

[_the_oracle_]

He smiled, gently taking the bouqet from him. "Ever the charmer, you are, Grayson."

The scent of the roses was strong, and warming. "Thank you." She motioned downward. "I.. better put this in water. Have a seat anywhere you can find room. This shouldn't take long."

She manuvered around and made her way to the kitchen, pulling out a vase. "You look stunned... You alright?"

[alter_grayson]

Dick takes a seat and waits for her.

"Stunned? Uh.. no, I'm fine. Why?"

[_the_oracle_]

After getting enough water in the vase, Barbara dropped the roses inside and fixed them on the countertop. "Your eyes seemed to do that..." She placed her hands in front of her and had them 'burst' open. "Open, shock type thing. THen again... it could be your eyes trying to adjust to the glow of the computers."

She smirked and wheeled over to him. "Ready?"

[alter_grayson]

"Actually I think it had something to do with you looking absolutely incredible, but I have a feeling that's nothing new."

He nods.

"Ready."

[_the_oracle_]

Her cheeksturned a shade of pink. "Heh... You're too much, Grayson."

She smirked. "SO... is there any place special you were hoping to go? Italian food or... anything?

[alter_grayson]

"You don't have to call me by my last name you know" He grins.

"I figured you know this place better than I do, thought I'd let you pick"

[_the_oracle_]

She smiled weakly, tucking a bit of her hair behind her ear. "I'm sorry. Force of habbit." she winked.

"Well... was there anyplace that you could remember that you... enjoyed? I'm sure the similarities between our worlds aren't that different. I bet at least one of your old favorite resturants is still hanging around today."

[alter_grayson]

"To be honest, it's been so long I don't even remember. I'd much rather try something that you like"

[_the_oracle_]

Barbara thought about it for a moment and nodded, heading toward the elevator. "Well... in that case, we'll go to the nice little place that Dinah and I have been frequenting. They've got such a wonderful selection of food. They specialize in Italian food, but their menu isn't limited to just so."

She placed her hand on the button and waited for the doors opened. As soon as they opened, she manuvered herself in. "And the nice thing is? It's just down the block. Do you mind walking?"
