	I thought I could do without the riddles, but it's all gone. I'm going to be fine. Just need to walk it off. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Everything? [...] Where are you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Everything. The hotel. I can handle it. Go play with Helena. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm not going to go play with Helena, not now. Now, I'm going to meet Damian because he's freaking out and he's suddenly got a nine-year-old. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You could be a professional babysitter at this point, Stephanie. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think that's called being a parent, which, nope. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Go help your bat brood. I'm going to go retrieve the money Sadie set aside for me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Fine. Why don't you just go on and meet Ivy while you're at it? Make sure she doesn't go crazy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You didn't lose anything Stephanie. You didn't lose a damn thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: stephanie b./edward n. blondebat 2013-02-18 08:20 am UTC (link)
	So talk to me. Tell me what's happening. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: stephanie b./edward n. riddlethem 2013-02-18 08:28 am UTC (link)
	I'm normal. I don't care about riddles, I don't even remember most of them. All the facts, trivia and expertise I had floating around in my head is gone. I don't want to cause any trouble, I don't even want to steal. I can't code. I can't do complicated equations in my head. My brain moves so slow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: stephanie b./edward n. blondebat 2013-02-18 08:31 am UTC (link)
	And you're scared? Mad? Upset? All three? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: stephanie b./edward n. riddlethem 2013-02-18 08:36 am UTC (link)
	Mostly scared. I can't do anything to fix this. I just have to wait and hope it gives me back me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's okay, honey. I promise it'll be okay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If I'm not a super genius, what am I? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You aren't defined by just that, Eddie. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: stephanie b./edward n. riddlethem 2013-02-18 08:58 am UTC (link)
	It's at least 95% of it. When it kicked me out, I wasn't even wearing my green suit anymore. It put me in this blue thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: stephanie b./edward n. blondebat 2013-02-18 09:22 am UTC (link)
	Nope. I disagree. I bet you're still as handsome. [...] This probably isn't permanent. None of these things from the hotel are ever permanent. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: stephanie b./edward n. riddlethem 2013-02-18 09:33 am UTC (link)
	I see how it is. All I am to you is handsome charm. You know I think Breeze probably took at least half of the charm with her. And, I don't know how to get that kind of substance back. [...] And, did you seriously almost pick a fight with Ivy. Over me? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: stephanie b./edward n. blondebat 2013-02-18 09:38 am UTC (link)
	Is this your way of trying to get rid of me, baby? It's not going to work. You know that isn't true. [...] It just kinda happened. I went stupid. You make me stupid. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

If the cheeto sandwiches and sports analogies didn't scare you off, I don't know what will.

Listen. Right now I only two things for certain about myself. I can still do long division in my head and I love you. I know I haven't said it in a long time, but I do god damn it. Ivy's going to go off and smash into a brick wall a couple of times trying to find a cure while you and I try to enjoy this miserable shining city.

Yeah, you're pretty much stuck with me at this point.

~~I love you too~~ [Quickly backspaced.] She just rubs me the wrong way, Eddie. And I know she's supposed to, but she does. [...] You know you're the most important thing to me in Gotham or in this city? I'm always yours and here for you no matter what happens or who you are. Like I said, you're stuck, baby.

	Yeah well, I almost got in a yelling match with one of your lady bats up there, so we're even. I know. I'm overwhelmed. And, there's a really good chance Breeze is going to snap while she's in Gotham. Everything we worked towards for nothing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
