Zatanna:-Zatanna goes to pick up some of the flowers, not hearing any sort of response from her boyfriend - Robin?! -She sees something else among the flowers, a little note paper with writing on it. There are quite a few of them around...-

Robin: [He smiles as he sees her wander around, face alight with surprise an joy. Ha! Success. He's hidden in the shadows so even if she looks up, she won't see him. Which is exactly what he wants. Wether he's hiding from embarrassment or just because he wants to be somewhat of a troll still is unknown to him. He sends her another message after hearing her yell.] "I said what I said and I said what I meant. A Robin is truthful one hundred percent. Look around."

Zatanna: - Zatanna picks up her phone as it vibrates in her pocket, an she rolls her eyes with a smile.- I know you're in here, Robin...! - She waits a few seconds, huffs when she gets no response, and goes to pick up one of the notes, reading it -

Robin: [Reason 25: I like your smile and the way your eyes light up when you laugh.]

Zatanna: - Zatanna smiles, blushing a bit, giggles and looks around, pocketing the note...not so she could preserve it forever, nope. She picks up a flower and twirls it around in her hand, a stupid grin on her face. She puts the flower in her hair above her ear, making sure it's secure before spying another note and picking it up -

Robin: [Reason 14: I like how you're not afraid to be bold.]

[Robin keeps watching her go around, a fond smile on his face. He texts her again,] "Yellow's a good color on you." [He's referencing the flower she's put in her hair, of course. It's a bright yellow chrysanthemum.]

Zatanna: - Zatanna raises an eyebrow, a devious smile lighting up her face, before jumping a bit when her phone vibrates with a new text. She raises both her eyebrows and immediately looks up, her expression contemplative, trying to see where he might be. - So...you like how bold I am, huh? You're pretty bold yourself, you know...how about you come over here and prove it? - She smirks and spreads out her harms, tipping over into the pile of flowers as a cushion, laughing. -

Robin: [He lets out a laugh with her when he sees Zee fall over and immediately covers his mouth with one hand to stifle it. Whoops. Oh well. He calls down from his perch, making sure to throw his voice so she can't pinpoint where he is.] Those are expensive, you know!

Zatanna: [Zatanna laughs, hidden in the pile of flowers.] Well, I couldn't resist! And they smell so nice! [Gets an idea, covers her mouth and whispers] Srewolf, laever s'nibor noitacol. [A gust of wind enters the room, and flowers fly up and around the room, falling on Robin and making a path that points to him.]

Robin: Oh, now you're just cheating. [He pokes at several of the flowers floating in front of him before jumping down, his cable wire wrapped around his arm and leg to keep him from going splat on the flower covered ground. He stops a few feet from Zee, hanging upside down with a grin and another laugh.] Spiderman kiss, c'mon. Let's be cliché. I won't stand for anything less.

Zatanna: [Zatanna laughs with, sitting up and angling her head to best kiss him, despite the awkward position. She smiles and looks down at his mask, chuckling.] I like you too, you big dork.

Robin: My dorkiness knows no bounds. How dare you limit it to a simple word such as "big" [Robin scoffs and hops down from his position, letting his wire zip back into his grapple gun. He smiles and draws Zee into a hug, releasing her after a second.] Figured I'd make it up to you for being a jerk the other day.

Zatanna: What do you mean, being a jerk? You weren't a jerk. -Puts her hands on her hips - Did you think I thought you were being a jerk?

Robin: Uhh… No? [He puts his hands up in defense, backing away a bit and laughing.]

Zatanna: -rolls her eyes - Not that this isn't amazing, Robin, it really is. But you weren't being a jerk, okay? You were...distraught.

Robin: [He snorts, nodding along.] I'd much rather be traught, but yeah. I got it.

Zatanna: Well. You're traught now, I can assume? -Turns around, looking at all the flowers - And exactly how much money did you spend on all these flowers?

Robin: [He nods again to her first question and then crosses his arms around his back, rocking on the balls of his feet.] Hm. Let's just say I can't say the exact number without you hitting me, and pretend I lost the receipt.

Zatanna: - Picks up another flowers and sniffs it, twirling it in her hand - Well...I'm just going to assume that you're filthy rich or something and you can totally afford this, and even if you're not, it's still incredibly sweet. -Turns to him and hugs him from the side, pecking him on the cheek with a grin -

Robin: Heh. [He watches her for a few seconds and then grins again, a silly grin.] How do you know I didn't pick all of them, huh? I could have. [Maybe. If he knew where to find flowers that weren't part of someone's garden..]

Zatanna: -Chuckles - Well, if that's so, take me to the field of flowers you got them from so we can frolic.

Robin: Oh, ha ha. Very funny. [Robin sticks his tongue out at her before grabbing her and pulling her close for a kiss. It's short, sweet, kind of like her.] So I bought them. It's nothing I can't afford. I have allowance. Batallowance.

Zatanna: -Kisses him back, basking in all the attention despite herself. Hey, she couldn't help it, she had an awesome boyfriend who did crazy things. - Is Batman going to wonder why you bought a whole room full of flowers? Speaking of which, what am I going to do with them... -Spies another note and bends down to pick it up, curious. -

Robin: [Reason 12: I like the way you laugh.] Nope. It was my money, not his. [He watches as she picks up another note. He'd written fifty of them, because that was how many bunches of flowers he'd bought as well. It was kind of cheesy, but he didn't mind.] You can always give them away, or set them up around the cave.

Zatanna: -Pockets the note, and determines that she's going to read as many notes as she could find...at some point. - Actually...I think M'gann might like to have some. And it'd always be fun to mess with Conner. - Looks at the flower in her hand, examining it - ....I wonder if Ret would like any of them? There's an idea...

Robin: [Robin's nose scrunches up and he tries to think of who Ret would be. That…isn't someone he ever remembers meeting. Maybe someone she knows from school.. It's not he tip of his tongue. He knows he knows who that is but…] Ret? Who's that?

Zatanna: -Picks up a bunch of flowers, raises her eyebrows at him. - ...my rabbit? His name's Retep Elatnottoc, but I call him Ret. Aren't some flowers edible? Maybe he might like some.

Robin: Ooh, right. I feel stupid. That's a good name for a rabbit. [Thankfully not some other guy..Haha..ha…ha.]

Zatanna: -Laughs - What, are you jealous of a rabbit? - Elbows him in the arm - Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Robin: [He plays along with her words, clutching his side where she'd elbowed him.] Oh the pain. The agony-y-y-y..! [Rob falls over, in a completely melodramic way because that's just the way he does things.] You've killed me.

Zatanna: - Rolls her eyes, laughing- Oh no, how can I bear the guilt of this heinous act? Oooh~! -Falls over next to him, flopping into the pile of flowers. There's another note right in front of her face, and she snatches it to read it -

Robin: [Reason 36: I like the way you kiss me.] A real Juliet would join me in death. [Rob laughed, picking up a flower and dropping it on Zee, doing the same with a few more.]

Zatanna: -Raises her eyebrows at the note - So...you like the way I kiss you? - Letting the flowers slide off of her, she gently grabs Robin's collar and pulls him in for a deeper kiss -

Robin: I like lots of things about you, Zee. [He presses back, tangling a hand in her hair. Out of the corner of his eye he sees movement in the doorway. Something red..something..tall…] "Human customs still elude me," Must have been RT then..]

Zatanna: - She hears the robot's confused deceleration, laughs into Robin's lips.- Well, we're not exactly...average, now are we? -Presses her body closer to his, rustling the flowers around them -

 Robin: I've never been average. I don't doubt you've ever been either. [He shrugs, looping his arms around her shoulders.]

Zatanna: -The flowers make this time quite a bit more pleasant than previous ones, without the smell of sweat, instead just the wonderful fresh smell of flowers - Nope. You don't exactly get to be normal with magic powers. - Wraps her arms around his waist, nuzzling her face into his neck, flowers getting tangled in her hair

Robin: Thought not. [He smiles, kissing her nose and pressing their foreheads together.]

Zatanna: -Smiles deviously, letting her fingers on her left hand crawl lower to tickle his hip bones in that place that always seems to fluster him -

Robin: Oh. [A blush immediately comes to his face because apparently he's got a weak spot right there and Zee's figured it out.] Hey, that's cheating!

Zatanna: -Grins, fluttering her eyelids innocently. - Cheating? Are we playing a game, then?

Robin: Sure we are. Game of life. [He sticks his tongue out at her again before pecking her on the lips once more.]

Zatanna: -Kisses him, tickling his hip again as she does so, and taking the opportunity to try out an experimental nibble of his bottom lip. - You're no fun. Let's play a different game. One that I'll win.

Robin: You're very--ah--competitive. [He moans a bit when she bites his lip, liking the feeling.] We could always play cards.

Zatanna: -Raises her eyebrows a bit at his moan. Interesting discovery.... - We could play cards... - Lets her hand wander underneath his shirt, tickling and spidering her fingers, while her other hand slowly creeps under the waistband of his jeans, wondering when he'll catch it - ...or we could do this. This is more fun. And I'm already winning... -Kisses him again -

Robin: Didn't say I didn't like it. I just, [Bites his lip, squeezing his eyes shut because the feelings are overwhelming.] was voicing our options.

Zatanna: -Rolls on top of him and straddles his waist to stabilize herself, pausing for a moment to blush at her own boldness. Okay, maybe she didn't exactly know what she was doing. Maybe she was going about this wrong. But to be quite honest she couldn't bring herself to care much. The flowers in stuck in her hair were scratching her face, but she ignored them. - How about now? Still enjoying yourself? -She was half flirting, half serious, wondering if he wanted her to stop or not -

Robin: [Robin catches her straying hands, intertwining their fingers and pinning his own to the floor so she would be forced bend over him, close enough for him to reach up and kiss her again. Just one more time.] I always enjoy myself, thank you.

Zatanna: - Leans down and frees her hands from his grip, letting them roam up his arms, past his shoulders, and rest on his chest, letting her fingers drum on his collarbone as she beams at him - Well, glad that I'm so entertaining. I did grow up on stage, after all. - Before she can really stop herself, her hand travels downwards to slip under his shirt, repeating her habit of trailing her fingers over his scars -

Robin: Mmm, I know the feeling all too well. [He squirms a bit when she runs her hand over a small ticklish spot, tossing his head back and spotting a camera when he opens his eyes.] Er. Zee?

 Zatanna: -raises an eyebrow at him, feeling him stiffen a bit under her - ...yeah?

Robin: [Still staring at the camera, but smiles just a bit because potentially getting into trouble and then avoiding it is all sorts of fun. Lots of adrenaline involved..] I hate the ruin the fun, but there's a camera. Right there.

Zatanna: -Looks up at the camera, face dropping, pursing her lips into a line - Well, camera, way to be a party pooper. Ugh.

Robin: [Rob laughs, sitting up and wrapping his arms around Zee's waist as she sits on his lap.] We should probably move.

Zatanna: - wraps her arms around his chest, resting her head on his shoulder - Yeah. We should... -she sighs, giving him a peck on his neck before moving to sit back and stand up, holding out an arm to him -

Robin: [Takes the pro-offered arm and jumps up, pulling her in for a hug as long as he's at it.] Ever figure out what you're going to do with all the flowers or were you too occupied? [smirks]

Zatanna: Actually... -smirks back - Something did occur to me...tahpot -a snap of her fingers and her father's tophat appears in a quick whisp of smoke - This is more than just a hat, you know. - Reaches into it and rummages around a bit, pulling out her wand - The wand's not entirely necessary...but it adds more flare.

Robin: [Crosses his arms, watching with a smile.] Never one to miss out on the melodramatics. Don't let me keep you. I'll just be here admiring the view.

Zatanna: -rolls her eyes - You do that. Ahem. -Holds out her hat, brim up, and taps the brim with her wand - ladep ot eht ladem, tah egarost - the flowers (and papers) all swirl into the air and fly into the hat, disappearing inside it until they've all disappeared-

Robin: [applauds] Very nice, very nice. Now if only I could do that with the security footage. Eheheh.

Zatanna: - put her hand on her hip, putting her hat on her head - Are you trying to tell me, Robin who can hack into the league database easily, you can't erase a little bit of security footage?

Robin: [scoffs] Not with words, I can't. Besides, anyone with eyes would notice a deletion of footage. I'd need to loop some of it to edit out the…naughty bits. Ahaha!

 Zatanna: -wacks him lightly in the arm - Are you calling me naughty? -laughs -

Robin: Even if I were, there's nothing wrong with that! [grins]

Zatanna: -scoffs - Well, if you think I'm so naughty I'm guessing you can do without kisses for a while, now can't you?

Robin: Now I wouldn't say that…

Zatanna: - rolls her eyes with a smile - I'm kidding, hon. -starts walking towards her room - Well, come on, wonder boy, Ret's probably getting lonely. And I want to see how many of those flowers are edible for rabbits.

Robin: [Follows after her, catching up and walking beside her, a skip in his step] The tulips aren't, but I think the rest of them are. I'm not sure about the chrysanthemums though. Oh! [starts laughing] You know, I bought you some asters!

Zatanna: -laughs heartily - Really? -reaches a hand up to touch a flower in her hair that is irritating her face - Well, maybe there are some in my hair...ugh, why are they even still there? This'll be such a pain to get out...

Robin: [Giggles, poking at one.] I'll help, don't worry. Wouldn't want to mess up your luscious locks, now would we?

Zatanna: I'll tell you one thing, magic does wonders for keeping myself looking nice. Besides being handy. - Reaches her room and slides the door open, waving him in with her -

Robin: [Follows her in, plopping on her bed.] It's when you say things like that which make me sad that Batman doesn't have magic. You should see him in the mornings!

Zatanna: - sits down on the bed next to him - Oh, I actually dont think I should. Seeing him regularly is terrifying enough, thank you.

Robin: [moves so he's slightly behind her and starts to untangle flowers from her hair.] Heh. He's not all that bad, if he remembers his coffee.

Zatanna: - reaches into her hat and pulls out some flowers, inspecting them to see if she could feed any to Ret, enjoying the feel of him fiddling with her hair - You must be so courageous, braving that every morning.

Robin: [piles the flowers beside him] Mmm, I wouldn't say every morning.

Zatanna: - reaches deep into her hat, nearly to her elbow, feeling around, before letting out an embarrassed yelp and blushing, yanking out her hand -

Robin: [Blinks, mouth agape with his hand frozen in the air.] What? [breaks into laughs] Something snap back at you?

Zatanna: -blushing furiously - N-no...! It was...it was...nothing. Absolutely nothing. Nothing.

Robin: [Raises an eyebrow at her, but drops the subject anyway.] Right, right. Magicians never revealing their secrets and whatnot. I got it.

Zatanna: -Trying to look stern to hide her embarrassment - Yeah. Yeah that. Exactly. You should know better than to inquire on a magician's secrets.

Robin: I know when not to pry, trust me. [laughs a bit, plucking out more flowers.] How in the world do you have this many flowers in your hair…?

Zatanna: - She sighs, gingerly setting her hat down on her bedside table, as if were she to do it too fast something would jump out at her - That's what I get for rolling around in a room full of flowers, I guess. I bet it's like a forest of its own in there.

Robin: [snorts and picks out the last of the flowers,] Or a nice field. Never know. Hey, can you actually go into the hat..?

Zatanna: - snorts - Good luck fitting yourself in there. And I wouldn't trust myself to cast a spell to get you in there. I might accidentally crush you or something. -...eyes her hat warily - But, uh...I wouldn't...want to go in there...

Robin: Riiiiight. [scoots up to sit beside her again] Understandable. It was just a thought, though.

Zatanna: -smiles - And an interesting thought it is. Although, I'm not exactly sure how it would look inside there...are you almost done?

Robin: Mhmm. [nods] You should probably comb it now, though.

Zatanna: Mmm, yeah... - glances around her room, seeing her hairbrush, but not her comb - ...I think I might have actually put a comb in here at some point. For hair emergencies, you know. - Picks her hat up again and rummages through it a bit - Comb, comb...

Robin: [smirks] Be careful you don't hurt yourself combing through that hat, dear.

Zatanna: - looks over her shoulder and sticks her tongue out at him - Shut up.-freezes, raising an eyebrow in a perplexed expression, turning to the hat and turning her full attention to it - ...what... - slowly pulls out a small piece of paper from the hat, flipping it over in her hand to look at the other side, and freezes, staring-

Robin: [He tilts his head to the side when he notices Zatanna's mood has changed, standing when she doesn't move for a little bit.] What is it? [When he gets up, he sees that she's holding a picture, a very old one by the looks of it (yellowing edges and everything). It's of her family, her mom and dad, with little baby Zatanna in the middle. It must have been just after she was born. With an old photo like that buried in the hat, there could be more, he thinks, wondering if Zee's going to go feeling for them. Or summon them.] Heh. You're kinda cute.

Zatanna: -doesn't move much, continuing to stare - ....yeah. I guess.

Robin: Hey, [He looks at her, poking her nose and hoping to snap her out of it. Too much sadness lately..] You were looking for a comb.

Zatanna: - startles, looking up from the picture with wide eyes - Oh. Oh right. Yeah. Comb. Probably should just summon it...bmoc -reaches into the hat again and immediately pulls out her comb, but sets the photograph down on her bedside table carefullly -

Robin: There you go, then. Everything's alright, 'cept your hair. That's a mess.

Zatanna: -chuckles half-heartedly - Yes, well, hazard of having long hair - getting it messed up. - sighs and glances at the photo again, but catches herself and looks away -

Robin: I'll do this, [snatches the comb away and sits on the bed again, dragging Zee to sit as well] You look distracted. ……It's okay to miss them, you know. Even if you didn't know your mom that well.

Zatanna: -staring off into space, fidgeting a bit when he addresses the elephant in the room - O-oh. Uh...yeah. Yeah, I guess...

Robin: [starts combing out her hair] Now don't be going all sad and mopey on me, okay? One brooding bat is all I can take. I'll be crushed under all the pessimism.

Zatanna: - chuckles - Oh, shut it, you. - Rolls her eyes - And comb my hair like a good servant. - sits upright, back straight, looking smug -

Robin: [laughs, rolling his eyes, though she can't see.] Yes m'lady. Whatever you wish, m'lady.

Zatanna: - turns her head a bit to try and look at him through her hair, somewhat sheepishly - uhm....Y'know, Robin, uh...I was...sort of wondering...the other day... - pauses and looks away, hesitating - ....nevermind, actually. It's dumb.

Robin: [smirks, setting the comb down and scooting up to sit beside her] If it's on your mind, it can't be dumb. C'mon. There's no room for indecision here, and there's no better time like the present.

Zatanna: - shakes her head - No, no, it's just me being...paranoid. I shouldn't have said anything.

Robin: [nods] Alright then. [leans over to kiss her on the cheek, standing up to leave] You need anything else before I take off?

Zatanna: -ponders - Hmmm... - leans back on her bed - You got any plans for another date sometime soon, lover boy?

Robin: Why Zatanna, are you asking me out? [grins]

Zatanna: - rests her arms behind her head - Maybe. Possibly. Most likely, yes.

Robin: Well, [chuckles, crossing his arms over his chest] It just so happens that I know a guy who knows a guy who has tickets to this silly little magic show in Metropolis. I could probably swindle them if you'd be up to it.

Zatanna: - sits up on her hands, a gin on her face - Seriously? Of course I would. That sounds hilarious.

Robin: It's settled then. Friday at seven. Don't fall into your hat, okay? You'll make us late.

Zatanna: - giggles and waves goodbye - I'll be very careful. Have fun, boy wonder.
