It happens to everyone - sometimes, you have nights where you just can't fall asleep, no matter what you do. It could be for a number of reasons, or no reason at all. And this is what's happened now: you've been laying in bed for what feels like hours, just tossing and turning, and nothing seems to help. So what's left to do

[Normally, when Robin is awake in the middle of the night it's because he's already awake. And has been awake, either one of his all night video game marathons or patroling with Batman. When he falls asleep, he usually has no problem staying asleep, seeing as sleep is hard to come by in his line of work.]

[Yet here he was, awake after a few hours of sleep, hungry. More than just hungry, starving. So starving that falling back asleep was impossible.]

[Therefore he decided to remedy the problem - get up and make something. He was careful, his special ninja-skills quite helpful in getting out of his room and to the kitchen without a sound, but of course as soon as he opened the cabinet all hell broke loose. And by hell, he means multiple pans - too many for him to catch all at once.]

[Once the ringing in his ears stopped, he waited. He didn't even breathe. Surely that wasn't as loud as he thought it was...]

fancy seeing you here ^_~

[It was a wonder nobody else had woken up; even Artemis was still passed out across the room. Was this a regular occurance? Had they all just gotten so used to each other making noise as...what was it... 3:12 in the morning?]

[Oh, that's it. Whoever this was was feeling the full wrath of Zatanna.]

[She threw on her lavender robe over the black spaghetti strap and dark purple pajama shorts, not bothering to tie it off, and headed out for where she knew the kitchen to be.]

[When she appeared in the doorway, however, mouth already open to deliver a verbal beat-down...she froze.]

...Robin?

[She had been expecting Wally. Or M'gann. Or even Captain Marval. He was always hanging around, wasn't he?]

Don't tell me the kitchenware's finally decided to retaliate. I knew it was only a matter of time.

maybe i'm just stalking you~

[hackintheaster]

[Crap. Of course someone was going to wake up, what with his kitchenware-rock-show he had going on.]

[Okay, you can do this Robin. Play it cool.]

[He stood back up, grinning up at her real big and shrugging. Whoops?]

I'm no match when the spaghetti strainer and the frying pan decide to team-up against me. I know my limitations.

I can live with that

[be_chalant]

[It takes her a moment to decide her next course of action, and when she does, she deliberate side-steps a few of the casualties splayed all over the floor as she enters the room.]

The frying pan, huh? I'll bet. I heard those things were...y'now...non-stick and everything. From the Martha Stewart collection.

Girl knows her cookware.

okay good.

[hackintheaster]

You have no idea the extent of Martha Stewart's cookware collection's nefarious plotting. It had to be stopped.

[Yeah...he was going to have to do some major cleaning before the rest of the team woke up.]

[be_chalant]

My hero. I suppose this means we should all be thanking you for saving us.

[At the cost of her beauty sleep.]

What exactly were you doing in here, anyway?

[hackintheaster]

[He shrugs.]

All in a day's work.

And I dunno. I couldn't really sleep so I decided to see what we had sitting around to eat.

[be_chalant]

Given what I've seen come out of this kitchen in the past...you might be be better off just cooking something yourself.

After all, you've already taken the pots out. Might as well use 'em.

[hackintheaster]

You say that like the kitchenware hasn't already tried to kill me once tonight.

[be_chalant]

And you're just going to take that? Without showing the frying pan who's boss?

[hackintheaster]

I am clearly outmatched. Unless you want to assist me?

[be_chalant]

I think I can manage that.

What's on the menu?
