October 21st, after the dreams

[bodyreads]

[No.

She's tried to keep herself awake these past few nights. She's done everything imaginable, including caffeine and being on patrols non-stop the moment it starts to get dark. But even the waking hours and the few naps she's taken have given her these nightmares. Jason. Tim. Clark. And she could swear that one... No. She's just imagining it, that's all.

That's...all it is. He's not here.

She goes down to the small training area and takes out the video Bruce has of his death, of his fight with Sylar seen through his eyes. She watches it again and again, relentless in her hopes to topple her father's killer, and then begins to train. She turns the volume off so no one will hear the tape while she fights, while she makes sure she's perfect in her execution. She has to be able to take him down. She has to.]

[The dreams were horrible. Terrifying. Tim wasn't sure when the last time he'd had dreams that bad were. But there were others things to do. With Bruce gone, people needed to step up, and that's just what he was doing.

So he wasn't surprised when he saw someone else was already in the Batcave when he got there. He waited for a moment, just watching Cass fight, before going over to the computer and checking it. She was watching the fight with Sylar, something he expected. If anyone could try to take him out, she could.]

[She stops when she sees Tim approach, her hand outstretched in a slice towards her 'opponent's' throat. She straightens and looks over at him, then over to the computer. The last thing she wanted any of them to see was their father being killed.

She frowns.]

Hi.

[theshortestbird]

Hey. You don't have to stop because of me, I know my way around here.

[He flashed her a smile, taking a seat in front of the computer screens.]

November 6/7, night

{ After the news broke about Red Hood, Stephanie Brown spent the day restless and worried. That Jason was still alive she was almost certain. The whole thing had been so theatrical, and there hadn't been a positive ID. What bothered her was that she didn't know what it meant, for Jason or for any of the rest of the Bat Family. Maybe she wasn't as connected as she wanted to be with the others.

In the hours after sunset Batgirl decided she had earned herself a short break. By midnight that night she was in the cave, armed with a plate of waffles that towered to unhealthy heights. A few hours and then she would go back on patrol. Anyone could use the sugar rush at this time of night. }
