This isn't an immediate request or a binding one, because God knows we all have our own problems right now and they're not going to just vanish into thin air. It's a strictly information grabbing inquest.
I have a team member, the younger Batman, who's going to be in need of sparring and/or practice once he's off punishment. Those of you who can read this are the best in the city that I'm fairly sure I can
trust. I'm sure I don't have to explain that when it comes to fighting styles, variety is the spice of life. It's all good and well if he can spar against me or one of my team mates and come out victorious, but where that might have been fine where we're from, it's not here.
There are a variety of reasons why, but the point comes down to, I'm asking for potential help. I want him to see what a fight against someone not born and bread in Gotham is like, and I want him to get better. It seems like most of you can fight hand to hand, and it seems like most of you can take a sparring session. Like I said, this isn't binding or immediate (as he's grounded right now and, yes, we all have many more immediate problems), but I'd like to know if there's
interest.
I'd owe you one in return, obviously. And whether that amounts to any sparring or training you'd like yourselves, information later down the road, or something else, that's fine.
The moral of all this? Don't ever rely solely on technology. Yes, even
I can say that.
[Bruce and Cassandra]Cass, I know you offered, and I'm still going to take you up on that once Terry's better, but like I said, he needs variety. I'm worried that he'd been relying on that suit too much, and I
know that he needs to work on that wonderful teenaged-boy hot headed quality he's got so much of.
He reminds me of Jason. A lot. And not just because the Joker keeps saying it. I'll keep the promise I made him of handing over one of Nightwing's old suits, but not until he's passed anything and everything I can think of to pit him against. The skill's there and so is the talent. There's no denying he's good, but I almost think that all the gizmos in that suit made it
too easy. This will be good for him, if I can get the help.
[Terry]How are you doing?
