Day 215 [video]
Let's play baseball tomorrow!

You know, instead of practice, let's just have a game even if the teams are a little short. And people should join so they're tall again! Tall wasn't really the right word.

Is tomorrow too soon? [Kind of to himself.]

Hikaru, is tomorrow too soon? [Less to himself and more to Hikaru.] We really need a manager again. Does anyone want to manage? Or play?

Oh, is this okay with the cheerleaders too I guess?

(OOC: Backdated to late afternoon.)

	Oh yeah. We had to practice every day and when we got to new towns we would have to help with set-up or take-down, There was always something to do and I couldn't slack on my homework one bit. I found out I was a couple grades ahead when I started going to a regular school. [Meaning the private and exclusive Gotham Academy.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He listens, interested despite all the talk of homework and schooling. He probably thought elephants were just a breath away from being mentioned, but then something catches his attention.] How did you go to regular school and work in a circus? Did it stay in one city?

	Ah...[Dick laughs, but it's the teeniest bit tense.] My folks had an accident and I got fostered to this guy, so I had to leave the circus and start going to regular school. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Oh, that just...takes away all the smiling. At least all of Yuuri's. You're getting full force empathy now, Dick. It's like getting hit with the Care Bear Stare. Okay, it's nothing like that, but Yuuri's heart definitely goes out to the guy.]

I'm really sorry about your parents. [He can't even imagine something happening to his. He's a few years older than Dick, but he still really needs them. It makes him think of Greta too.]

Is he a nice guy? Your foster parent. [No compelling you to assassinate kings, right? It's a thing!]

	[Oh, don't do that, he doesn't like being pitied, Yuuri and no matter how sincere that sympathy, all he's going to see is pity.] He's a great guy. Too friendly with all his lady-friends, but not like they mind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] demon_king 2013-05-04 02:58 am UTC (link)
	[You're like four seconds away from a really awkward adoption, okay? Pity is the least of your worries!] He sounds like someone I know. Well, the too friendly part. They might mind if they noticed. [Batman = Murata. Yep.] So he keeps you safe and there's always food and he says things in a wise way? [Important fathering duties.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] lethimeatrats 2013-05-04 03:03 am UTC (link)
	[He's already been adopted by one weird guy, no need to add another. Dick would laugh right now if it wouldn't be really inappropriate. So instead he just keeps grinning.] Sure, sure. [When Bruce isn't locking him into the BatCave and telling him to survive on his own. Rats are food, right?] Except the wise-thing. But at least he cares, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] demon_king 2013-05-04 03:06 am UTC (link)
	Mm, [He wanted the wise! But he nods solemnly, accepting a world without it.] Caring is the most important part. Do you like your new school and everything? [Silver lining type stuff. Sorry your parents are dead, but at least math is fractiontastic!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] lethimeatrats 2013-05-04 03:13 am UTC (link)
	It's okay. I preferred the homeschooling, really. [But he can't do that now because people are already wondering what the hell Bruce is doing with him. Better to keep him out and about in public at least some of the time.] What about you? What are your folks like? [Change of subject go.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Oh, well, Dad is a normal Dad. [So descriptive.] He goes to work in a suit. [He works in a building while wearing a suit. He doesn't work in a giant suit. No mecha!] Mom is...[a sheepish laugh as he loosens up again.] a little different. She makes curry and does weird stuff with Murata and she used to be here.

Well, not here-here, but the old here. The first Marina.

	...You got brought to prison with your mom? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] demon_king 2013-05-04 03:22 am UTC (link)
	No, no, I got brought here first and she got brought in later. [Which is SO different. Worlds different. Universes different! Okay, it's mostly the same.] ...It was kind of weird. [And he was worried about her even though she can handle herself even if she was adopting strange people ~~like mother like son~~.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] lethimeatrats 2013-05-04 03:27 am UTC (link)
	So you went to prison and your mom came to keep you company. [Sorry, Yuuri, he's going to have to laugh a bit behind his hand right here.] Man, that gives a new meaning to "overprotective mom." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] demon_king 2013-05-04 03:28 am UTC (link)
	...It's not like she did it on purpose! [It's also not like you're wrong.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] lethimeatrats 2013-05-04 03:31 am UTC (link)
	Who knows maybe she did because she knew she needed her to keep an eye on you. Moms know that kind of stuff. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] demon_king 2013-05-04 03:39 am UTC (link)
	If that was true there would be lots of people's moms here. [He kind of shuts up quickly after he says it. Is that...hard to hear?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] lethimeatrats 2013-05-07 04:59 pm UTC (link)
	[Dick freezes for just a moment and then shrugs, deliberately dismissive.] Maybe they just haven't gotten through their trials yet. Like this place makes any sense. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] demon_king 2013-05-12 02:24 am UTC (link)
	Mmm...maybe. I wonder if there really are trials. I mean, once Senti showed us discs from the trails, so I guess so... [Unsure.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
