Oooh! I liked this one!

This is a really... touchy subject for Babs, I imagine and she handles it with grace and... well. Tim's always been a good student, hasn't he?

Nicely done, love.

Thank you :)

In my mind Tim asked Barbara first before going on with his plan. He's a smart guy and he knows how hard is for Barbara.

And yes, Tim is a very good student :)

I always really appreciate fics that deal with Babs' disability and its effect on her character realistically.

And for the first time Tim has no problem understanding who’s talking to him.

Love it!

This was great. Such a touchy subject, especially for Babs, but she's pragmatic enough to use her experience to teach Tim, presumably so that he can do good - and Tim is such a good student, such a dedicated learner, and such a good actor.

Tim is very good at everything he does, but he knows that some people know more than he does. ANd he's not afraid to ask for help.

And Barbara is rational enough to know that Tim didn't mean to hurt her.

Babs is a woman of few words...except when it comes to Dick or Dinah ;)

Thanks for reading! :D
