	What am I supposed to do?! Just name drop and make her think she's talking to Grayson? You're at the door now? My brain is going to implode and it is all your fault. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah. Why not? Desperate times, Davis. Are you an agent, or aren't you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[There's a pause as she goes through the door, crackle and silence, and then an accented voice, young, and smugly knowing.] Do you believe you can trick me into believing you are someone you are not? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's kind of in the job description. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It will not work, but I will humor you. You may tell Richard Grayson I did this as a favor to him, humoring you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't need to be humored, but I can promise you one thing. If it's Dick you want to talk to then you're talking to the right person regardless of what side of the door I'm on. He's a little more involved with me than you are with our mutual friend. So what's the story? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ra's has returned. He will cleanse Gotham. Your Bat is weak. He allowed himself to become infected by a weak man. What man trained by the League falls prey to one like Jonathan Crane? Does he not learn? And Jason Todd, the one called Red Hood, he is dead. I have spilled his blood with my own sword and watched the life leave his eyes. The Bat's child could not stop me. He too is weak. He could not control the problem that the Bat created with his own weakness. You may tell Richard these things. I allowed the Bat to live once, for him. But that reprieve, it is over.

	First of all, he's not Dick's Bat so he can't answer to what could have possibly happened there, he's not in the cool kids club anymore with this crowd. Killing Jason was a little unnecessary in his mind, but he doesn't suppose that will surprise you at all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

What has happened is that your Bat is weak. Your Gotham is corrupt. The Bat's birds turn traitors because he does not trust them, and who wishes to be loyal to someone who treats them like the dirt under his feet? You may tell Richard that whether he thinks this is his Gotham or not, it is where he is now, and it is going to fall.

As for the one called Hood, I allowed the Bat's son to try to fix matters first. He did not. I am not afraid of the hard choices. It is good that someone should be willing to do what must be done in such circumstances. I would not have thought of it, had it not been tasked to the woman I inhabit in the desert. You may blame her for setting me down this course, should you require blame.

Now, I leave you. Tell Richard he is no longer a child. I expect better from the acrobat now.

[And pause, crackle, and the sound of breathing after Max crosses back through and waits for him to tell her what the hell happened.]

[He's quiet for a minute while he both ignores and listens to what Dick is going on about in his head. He feels insane. But he's mostly all business when he speaks - which isn't his usual]

Max I'm going need you to get me - or at least help me put together a list of everyone you can identify from that side of the door. I know people are finicky about it, but we need to know who is over there and who is over here. Because she might not be talking to you, or letting you listen to her - but she sure as hell is listening to you. And she knows who the both of us are, she knows who you know and she knows what we do.

She said she killed someone over there - Anyone you know of that didn't come back?

	[The suggestion about the list registers, about them being compromised registers, but she jumps right to that bit at the fucking end.] Who? Over there, who? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
