[Behold! Tim is capable of returning from a canon update without landing with a loud and resounding kerthunk on his floor. In fact, he is very comfortable sitting right here on his bed, device in hand.]
Hey. I'm back. [LIKE HE PROMISED. c: See guys, no reason to hate him forever.] What'd I miss?
[Private to Sylar]
Still mad at me?

Yes.

Great. I'll be there in a minute.

Hey you.

Come in. [She steps back.] How long were you back home?
Reply
A while. Months. Apparently it was only a couple days here?
Reply
Yeah, you were barely gone. If it'd been longer I might've missed you.
[Teeny bit of a teasing tone there.]
So. How was Gotham?

Might've, ouch. It was good. It was...eventful. [He had a lot of catching up to do.] I got to see Bruce come back, and it was - it was really great. [He wasn't insane, he wasn't crazy, and his plans worked. This is all very, very important to him. c:]
I got the change to work with my friends again, too - have you met Kon yet? [He really wants them to get along, but. He has his doubts.]

Not really met as such. Might've, I dunno, bumped into him in the lunch queue or something. Big guy, wears a black shirt, right? I think he showed up in a month where I wasn't paying attention.
[This is really most months.]
Does this mean you're ahead of all your buddies now? That must get confusing.

I think so, yeah. It's getting weird, but. Whatever. [And that's a solid shrug because now he's holding out the box he brought her, smiling. It's nod wrapped or anything because he'd do a horrible job of it, but inside is a pendant.] Here. Hope it's a good surprise.

That is a really good surprise. [She offers the box back to him and half-turns, holding her hair up out of the way.] Put it on for me?

I was hoping you'd like it.

[She lets her hair drop - whole lotta weight there - and turns back around to face him, looking at him closely. It's weird. He doesn't look older as such, but...definitely different somehow. She'd have known something had changed, even if she hadn't seen it.]
You left me hanging a little bit on 'eventful'. I mean, I don't need months' worth of play-by-play, but at least sketch it out for me.

[He smiled a little crookedly, though, then put on a faux thoughtful look, ticking off each bullet on his fingers.] Well, I got kicked out a window, my [ahaha not brother. :|] replacement tried to kill me again, I bought a rundown, abandoned movie theater to live in - I mean, it's still being renovated, but you know, after - I took my Neon Knights foundation international and went to Russia, spent some time in the Unternet, and got the chance to work with the Teen Titans again.
[And the crooked smile is back.] So should we address the names and lack of animal references first, or should I explain something else?

'Neon Knights'. Did you call it that? Because it sounds like a disco troupe.
Reply
Yeah. Probably could have found something better, but Gotham kind of has a theme. Their football team is the Knights...And a lot of people call Batman the Dark Knight, so I wanted to make a counterpoint.
