[17 | video] - Dick's comm

[batmantled]

[When the comm turns on, it’s a little shaky at first but then Babs moves it to somewhat settle on her lap. The camera focuses on her and Dick, both laying on the same cot in the emergency clinic set up by Topher. Between the two of them they might have enough energy for an average person, but it’s plain to see that they’re severely lacking in that

The biggest? Probably the Lovecraftian monster heading towards the City.

But you are going to tell me what happened while you were gone.

...Bruce got ported out, too.

[Have a Tim face that is a mix of relieved and concerned, guys.]

Welcome back - you sure you're okay?

[video, encrypted]

[batmantled]

...Yeah. Just, uh-

Babs had it worse than me. [ oh hey deflection ]

[video, encrypted]

[123youreit]

Which means you could both have had it pretty bad, considering all the blood. [Deflection denied.]

You're at the emergency clinic they set up?

She needed a transfusion.

[ she is grinning so much and her eyes totally are doing any lame shining with tears stuff. nope. no way. ]

Welcome back, you two. I've been looking after Damian while you were [ dead ] away, Dick. He's fine, relatively speaking, and in one piece. Though I may have forever turned him off to martial arts movies.

[batmantled]

Wouldn't have expected any less. [ and a long, long pause. ]

...Everything been okay?

video

[supertorso]

They've been... okay. [ it sucked. she needs to give him a hug soon. ]

We're currently bracing for impending doom.

[batmantled]

Good to know I didn't miss much.

[Charlie is doing everything she can not to let herself get excited. She just can't. Not after the last time when Babs had arrived and then been sent away in the span of a week, and Dick had died. She's curled up in the chair in Babs's computer room, unwilling to evacuate and yet not sure how to help. She just sort of...frowns.]

...What happened? Are you guys okay?

Re: [video]

[abirdcodename]

[Babs'll take the lead on this one. She regards Charlie with a definite concern, the tired smile turning into a slight frown herself.]

It's a long story but we're okay. [Pause.] Charlie, are you alright?

[video]

[foreverbouncing]

[She just shrugs.]

Fine. I didn't think you were coming back.

[Another little pause.]

The world is gonna end tomorrow or somethin', your timing kinda sucks.

Re: [video]

[abirdcodename]

I don't know if I'm that surprised to hear the world's ending tomorrow. [That actually earns half a smirk from her.]
