Robin!!

CATMAN!!! I've missed you!

[ Robin hesitated, one hand still gripping onto Tim's costume like she thought he was going to disappear if she let go, but she let go, slowly. This wasn't Catman. The voice was wrong, the rhythm all off. Catman was grating and odd, but in a way that reminded her of the clowns back at the circus, familiar, theatrical, and strangely kind. He'd teased Lady Bat, mocked her, but even in retreat, he always checked she was okay. This person? Different. She studied Tim, and for a moment, her composure cracked, and for a second, she looked like she was about to cry before roughly wiping her face against her gloves and stepping back. ]

Tim noticed that she looked like she was gonna cry. Shit. “No, no it’s okay. I’m not upset with you. You said Lady Bat? Like Batman. Okay uhm,” Tim pauses to take in a deep breath.

I don't know who Batman is, but everyone else knows who that is and acts as if I should know, but I don't, and there have been other people on the safe houses that Lady Bat told me to go to if I ever didn't know what to do, and I don't know who they are either. And I don't know what's happening!

It’s okay kiddo. You’ll be safe with me. We’ll figure out what’s going on, okay? Until then stay with me. I’m Stray, a vigilante. I gather up evidence for the GCPD and other vigilantes to use. Also fight crime the traditional vigilante way too.

[ She nodded and held onto Tim's Costume again. ]

“You were expecting someone else in a different costume. It would be weird to see something you weren’t expecting.” Tim says as he leads her to the closest Batburger. “You can help if you want.”

YESS!! I promise I'll be helpful! Pinky promise!

“I’m sure you’ll be very helpful Robin.” Tim smiles at her before turning serious. He remembered what happened to Robin II/Jason. “Good. Stay away from The Joker if you can. If you see a boy version of him run and come find me or a man dressed as a bat.”

[ She rolled her eyes and groaned. ]

“The Joker, the boy one, tortured and killed a 15 year kid as a ‘joke’. That’s why I want you to run from him,” Tim explains.

He did what

“I’ll explain this whole mess once we get food. Probably best to pair it with a snack.”

[ Robin ordered a bat-mite meal and a small strawberry shake for herself. She didn't want to be too selfish on someone else's dime.. She was just excited to not have to have the gross safe house Boyardee ravioli anymore. Normally she didn't mind then but that was all she had been eating for a week now because her emergency card doesn't work here and the just in case 50 Lady Bat gave her was apparently "obviously fake". ]

Tim also orders himself a bat-mite meal too. He also ordered a coffee. “Anytime. I won’t let you go hungry and I have plenty of money to spare.”

[ Dixie sat across from Tim taking her meal quickly. She never thought she'd be so happy to have batburger of all things. ]

And your Joker's meaner.

“Way meaner. I do not like him at all,” Tim takes a sip of his coffee and eats some of his burger.

So Lady Bat and A are probably going crazy trying to find me..

“Well you can still do cool things like Lady Bat. You can fight crime with me until we find a way back to your universe or Lady Bat and A come get you.” Tim had a temporary Robin. Now to make sure Batman doesn’t see her and freak out. And to definitely keep her away from Joker at all costs.

[ Dixie shoved a few fries in her mouth as he decided whether or not she wanted to answer that. Stray already had access to the Batcave so she guess he already knew who they were. He's one of the good guys. Besides he'd probably be able to tell who her the equivalent here was once she took off her domino... She swallowed and nodded. ]

“It’s good to meet you, Dixie. I’m Tim Drake,” he gives her his secret identity in turn. Assuming there was a counterpart of him in her universe, she’d figure it out the moment he brought her home. He continued to eat his food.

It's nice to meet you too, Tim

“My version of you, Richard “Dick” Greyson, is in his 20s. I guess it makes sense that I would be little in your universe.”

Oh. That makes sense.

“Well my parents do have a certain way of doing things. I can understand Timothia wanting her name spelt correctly.”

Alice doesn't like them. She won't let Thea ho Hine unless she sees someone at the house or someone comes and gets her.

Tim noticed that she looked like she was gonna cry. Shit. “No, no it’s okay. I’m not upset with you. You said Lady Bat? Like Batman. Okay uhm,” Tim pauses to take in a deep breath.

I don't know who Batman is, but everyone else knows who that is and acts as if I should know, but I don't, and there have been other people on the safe houses that Lady Bat told me to go to if I ever didn't know what to do, and I don't know who they are either. And I don't know what's happening!

It’s okay kiddo. You’ll be safe with me. We’ll figure out what’s going on, okay? Until then stay with me. I’m Stray, a vigilante. I gather up evidence for the GCPD and other vigilantes to use. Also fight crime the traditional vigilante way too.

[ She nodded and held onto Tim's Costume again. ]

“You were expecting someone else in a different costume. It would be weird to see something you weren’t expecting.” Tim says as he leads her to the closest Batburger. “You can help if you want.”

YESS!! I promise I'll be helpful! Pinky promise!

“I’m sure you’ll be very helpful Robin.” Tim smiles at her before turning serious. He remembered what happened to Robin II/Jason. “Good. Stay away from The Joker if you can. If you see a boy version of him run and come find me or a man dressed as a bat.”

[ She rolled her eyes and groaned. ]

CATMAN!!! I've missed you!

[ Robin hesitated, one hand still gripping onto Tim's costume like she thought he was going to disappear if she let go, but she let go, slowly. This wasn't Catman. The voice was wrong, the rhythm all off. Catman was grating and odd, but in a way that reminded her of the clowns back at the circus, familiar, theatrical, and strangely kind. He'd teased Lady Bat, mocked her, but even in retreat, he always checked she was okay. This person? Different. She studied Tim, and for a moment, her composure cracked, and for a second, she looked like she was about to cry before roughly wiping her face against her gloves and stepping back. ]
