[cassassin]

What--?

[well, the fact she doesn't seem to have existed in his timeline is a pretty good indicator of that if you ask her. anyway she's just gonna assume this is more weird alt future shit and move on]

Yeah. Sorry, should've said before.

[aboveand]

[Look, he knows that, but it's different when people he knows are out there leading completely different lives!]

I mean I guess you all assumed I knew who that was...

[cassassin]

She might be... different. Than you're used to. [and y'know, younger, but that goes without saying. imagining the barbara gordon she knows in her father's shoes is....weird.]

Can trust her though. She's family.

[aboveand]

I mean, I kind of guessed.

[Given that she's "Oracle" after all.]

If she's anything like the Barbara Gordon that I know, I know I can trust her. She's a pain in the butt sometimes, but she's fair.

[cassassin]

[cass chuckles at that.]

Try living with her.

[aboveand]

No thank you. I like when I can do the Batman disappearing act thing on her.

[Sometimes.]

[cassassin]

Won't put up with that.

[yeah she thought so. her tone gets a little reproachful and teasing.]

She's... my mother, basically. Play nice.

[aboveand]

Look if I didn't hold a grudge for my Barbara for thinking I'm actually capable of murder, I really don't think there's anything this one's going to do to get under my skin.

[...Also, mother? Why is everyone from this other universe got such complicated interconnected backstories?]

[cassassin]

[terry i've got this super cool kettle i'd like to introduce you to]

Give her time. [what's your tolerance level for being aggressively big sistered at, terrold. barbara can totally blow past it.]

[aboveand]

[IN HIS DEFENSE he knows none of this.]

You're an only child, aren't you? [He's kind of got the lock on being an annoying brother. How different can an annoying sister be?]

[cassassin]

Dick, Jason, Tim...

[aboveand]

[Must be nice, to have a team like that.]

Then you should be used to it.

[cassassin]

From... Dick and Tim? Sure. [pointedly not from jason.]

[aboveand]

That's still my point. It come with the sibling package.

I bug my twip brother all the time.

[Terry's face darkens for a moment as he thinks about Matt and how much he misses him. How he wished he could have spent more time with that older, alternate that had been here briefly.]
