"He took it better than expected."

Took what, Leslie?

[lesliethompkins]

She scrutinizes the man before her. His facial features are familiar but older than she would normally expect. "Timothy? My, how you've grown."

[demons_heir]

I'm probably older than the Timothy you know, Leslie. Welcome to the Hub.

[lesliethompkins]

She puts a hand to his cheek briefly. Perhaps it's an all too personal gesture but it's been months since she's seen Timothy. Her Timothy at least. "I didn't realize I'd gone anywhere," she answers honestly.

[demons_heir]

[Tim will slightly stiffen, it's been years since he's interacted regularly with Leslie, and she's not happy with him at home. But he doesn't move away]

The Hub tends to pull people in randomly. [Insert Hubsplanation here]

[lesliethompkins]

She pulls her hand away. The last thing she wants to do is make him feel uncomfortable.

"I certainly didn't choose to come. Although," she responds, first looking around her office and then out the window, "I'm not sure I could have told the difference."

[demons_heir]

It can be difficult at first to tell the difference. Although the skyline is much different from my universe's Gotham. Wayne Tower is missing, here.

[lesliethompkins]

Wayne Tower missing?

"How in the world-"

[demons_heir]

A rather nasty supervillain got into the Hub. He destroyed it.

[lesliethompkins]

So familiar. Yet so different. She steps back from the window and takes a deep breath. Patience has never really been her stop point and it seems like she's going to need it in abundance. "It sounds like I have quite a bit of catching up to do."

[demons_heir]

[Tim nods, then concentrates, and the Bulletin Board appears] This is usually a good place to start. The Crow's Bar is another good place for meeting various people.

[lesliethompkins]

The Bulletin Board appearing momentarily surprises her. Then she has an opportunity to examine it. She's almost afraid to ask-

"Is there-" She steps closer and starts again. "Is Alfred here? Bruce? Selina?"

[demons_heir]

[nods, maybe a little sadly thinking of the Alfred who died in front of him months ago] There's at least one Alfred, several Bruces, and a few Selinas.

One of the Bruces is from my universe, though he doesn't stay here often.

[lesliethompkins]

It's pretty rare for Leslie to feel overwhelmed. "He can go back and forth as he pleases," she says, echoing what Tim explained earlier. "How do I know if I can do that?"

Mun's bedtime

[demons_heir]

Some people can, some can't. I couldn't until after someone took me home, but Bruce and ...Dick seemed to be able to from the start. I guess it's just trial and error.

[His voice went a little hard as he said Dick's name.]

Sleep well!

[lesliethompkins]

"You and Dick don't get along." It's a statement, not a question.
