[There's some shuffling around, and finally a voice speaks. Jason isn't using his usual Red Hood growl- He isn't an idiot, he's figured long ago a secret identity isn't going to pay up in this place. Still, a bat wouldn't be a bat without the bat paranoia to go with it ( Read more... )

[Hi Jason, look who it is! Except you can't see her because she's doing audio too. Because she looks like crap. And sounds like it. Oh well]

So let's just get this out of the way now. This is Barbara. You were here once before, Dick is here too, I'm younger than you're probably used to, oh and I can walk. Hello Jason.

Then I guess you're out of luck, I like older women.

How do I know you're Babs?

You'd be the one out of luck there, kid. I'm not a fan of little boys.

I should have told Bruce all about that time I caught you smoking on the pier. I'm sure he would have loved to hear about it. [That answer your question, Jay?]

[Video/99.9% lock] batmansphoenix November 27 2011, 21:39:42 UTC

I'm not that little though. Want me to show you?

[And he switches to video. Because yes- that did indeed answer his question. He gives her a shit eating grin.]

Heh. Looking good.

[Video/99.9% lock] gingerbatgirl November 27 2011, 21:56:09 UTC

I know. You're all grown up now.

[Fine. She'll switch to video too. And yeah, she looks younger than Jason's used to. She's also pale, has a bandage wrapped around her neck and looks like crap in general] I've been better. It's good to see you again.

[Video/99.9% lock] batmansphoenix November 27 2011, 21:58:39 UTC

So you can walk again and the first thing you do is get beaten up? Nice.

[Video/99.9% lock] gingerbatgirl November 27 2011, 22:04:51 UTC

Yeah, it wasn't my finest moment. Though to be more specific, I've always been able to walk. The whole "shot by a psychotic clown" thing hasn't happened to me yet. But as far as this goes, someone went on a murderous rampage, some sort of mind manipulation was involved, you know how it goes.

[Video/99.9% lock] batmansphoenix November 27 2011, 22:09:53 UTC

You know our family is fucked up when I do know how it goes.

How much do you know from the future?

[Video/99.9% lock] gingerbatgirl November 27 2011, 22:20:16 UTC

Story of life in Gotham City.

Let's see. Stephanie told me most of it. The Joker shoots me, I'm paralyzed from the waist down, Dick has a shiny new name, something about a kid named Tim, then there's a brat named Damian, a couple of girls and....the last time you were here you told me what happened to you.

[Video/99.9% lock] batmansphoenix November 28 2011, 11:50:28 UTC

My trip underground? Yeaaah that wasn't funny. You're pretty much aware of everything then, uh?

Do you still want to come back now that you know what happens to you? To all of us?

[Video/99.9% lock] gingerbatgirl November 28 2011, 18:03:08 UTC

Most everything, yeah. I'm sure there's still some things that Dick is hiding from me because he thinks he needs to protect me but.

[She pauses like she's considering his question and then shrugs a bit] I'll admit that the things I've heard don't really make me happy. But neither does being trapped in this hellhole. It's sort of a double edged sword. The choices are stay here and be a plaything or go home and have to face all the crap that happens there.

[Video/99.9% lock] batmansphoenix November 29 2011, 15:13:32 UTC

What a pity I don't really think you need protection, uh? I'm plenty of things I'm 100% sure Dick hasn't told you about.

[He doubts he's telling Babs about his marriage... and plenty of other flings on the way.]

Let's talk about this once after I've been here for a while- and remember it, of course... and we'll see what I think about those choices then.

[Video/99.9% lock] gingerbatgirl November 29 2011, 20:30:02 UTC

Not really. But Dick still thinks he needs to hide things from me, like I'll break if I find out. You know how he is. And you'd be surprised what I already know.

[They tend not to talk about other relationships either of them has had]

We'll see. In any case, Dick will probably be running to see you soon.

[Video/99.9% lock] batmansphoenix November 30 2011, 16:19:27 UTC

Oh, he already is. I never knew he cared.

[All the sarcasm, he has it.]

[Video/99.9% lock] gingerbatgirl November 30 2011, 21:40:35 UTC

Cut him some slack. He took it pretty hard when the last you was taken. Try to be at least a little bit civil?

[Video/99.9% lock] batmansphoenix December 1 2011, 19:44:50 UTC

He also took it badly when I died at home. Doesn't mean he welcomed me with open arms when I was back.

[And whose fault is that, one wonders.]

So I'm not going to feel bad just because some manry tears were shed.
