You've been quiet. Or quieter than usual.

Hey, Tim.

I'm at a slight disadvantage here, because we haven't met yet. But it's not like Bruce makes a habit of anno

Well, to be fair, I'm at a disadvantage too because from what Jason said, you're not the Dick from my reality, so I haven't met you yet either.

I'm Tim Wayne-Drake, nice to meet you.

Yeah, it's weird. From my perspective, everyone is not quite who they are in my world, but also [...] more of who they are. It's very interesting.

Yeah, no need to be formal. If you're a Wayne, you're family.

I can imagine. What do you mean 'who they are'?

Well, that's a familiar attitude, at least. Man, I need more coffee. Drake-Wayne. Bruce adopted me a couple of years ago.

[...] Don't tell Jason. He'll try and claim parental rights and swoop in through the window just to pour my cup down the drain.

Kori's different. My Jason's only twenty years old. I think Gar and Rach are supposed to be older, or my age at least? Bruce is at least ten years older than the one here. Keep in mind, I'm not complaining, but I am trying to wrap my head around all the differences.

Coffee? Can't sleep well either?

So Jason hasn't died? Sounds like there's a lot of differences. I'm from the same world as Jason but in the past. He was expecting me to be 18. I'm definitely not.

I get about two hours a night if I'm lucky?

Jason crashed into my life about five months ago. The last time I saw him was at Donna's funeral, and that was right before I ended up here. I didn't take it well. I think you're in my future too, man. Sorry.

Do you have your suit here?

That's kind of how Jason meets new people. Donna dies in your world too? I'm sorry.

How do you know I'm in your future? You guys might not have to deal with me escape the same fate.

No, I was in a board meeting when I arrived. I miss it. It's probably more dangerous to jump off buildings without a grappling line.

It wasn't anyone's fault, not even Conner's. It was just a horrible accident.

Why not? I already like you.

Just a bit. Guess we have no choice but to play video games.

[...] Conner?

I mean, I'm not Damian, so that's something. Better for everyone that he doesn't turn up and take everything away again

Do you not have your Nightwing suit? You are Nightwing, right?

Conner's my best friend. Is he- I mean, is he a clone in your world? CADMUS?

Damian's Bruce's biological offspring. He's literally satan.

But back at home? Or are you still Robin?

I really didn't get a chance to ask too many questions. I was dealing with some other stuff, but as far as I'm concerned, he's a Titan.

What the hell? I'm going to have to get over being replaced I leave Gotham for two years

No, not Robin. Nightwing. I'm brand new.

Yeah, he's a Titan in my world too. He- Yeah. He's my best friend.

I try not to think about Bruce and Talia al Ghul creating Damian. Not in the least because she tried to kill me, like. A lot. I've been dodging her assassins for almost a year.

[...] How old are you? If you don't mind me asking?

Yours or mine? I don't know. Another member of my team my old team is here. Is it a sort of critical mass thing, too many Bat-family members in one place creates some kind of interdimensional vortex?

That's one way of putting it.

Trying to keep a catalogue of the differences. Thirteen years instead of ten. Interesting. It's possibly I might not turn up in your world at all with that age difference.

Yours would be much more likely at this point. I'm the only one from my world here.

Age difference probably doesn't mean much when everything in my world's already weird. Jason's twenty.

I'm sorry, Dick. That sucks.

I'm not getting my hopes up. I couldn't handle the disappointment

The age gap between you and Jason is only a little bigger than it is normally.

I wonder what other differences there are between your world and mine.

It's okay. I'm used to it.

I gave up Robin two years ago, give or take. Moved to Detroit.

How old's Rachel supposed to be?

Still sucks.

Oh man. So in my world, I was twelve when I took over after Jason because when I asked you - well, Dick - to go back he refused. But Bruce needed someone.

Rachel’s older than I am. It’s impolite to ask a lady her age. But she’s in her twenties. Graduated out of the Teen Titans.

Are you still a cop?

The Titans have walked out on me before, and I didn't take it well. But I'm doing better this time around, I promise.

You're right, he does. I just don't think I'm the right person for that job anymore.

Teen Titans? Teen?

I am here. But I was training Gar, Rose, Rachel and Jason. Conner now too, I guess.

They walked out on you? I- I pushed the team away after everything, I’m not really on it anymore. They have another Robin and a better leader. Though she’s here, so.

You were my only option after Jason was murdered.

Uh, yeah? Teen Titans? Is that a weird thing?

Oh. Well. I mean, if you wanted to spar some time...

I messed up. It's a long story.

Right, Jason.

Donna and I started the Titans, but we weren't teenagers. None of us were.

Always. You don't even have to ask.

I don’t mind listening. I’ve got my own share of screw-ups too.

Jason? Why the tone?

Oh. Yeah, it wasn’t too different except you guys were teenagers. Like...a younger version of the Justice League? I took over when you went to the Titans and did your own thing.

Yeah? That would be good. I miss-

He's going to turn all my hair gray, isn't he? That's why the tone. First, he almost falls. Secondly, he almost jumps. Thirdly, he left.

Jesus Christ, I don't think I could've done that as a teenager.

Yeah, there's a gym in the building.

Slade’s son? Rose - his sister - is on Cassie’s team. What about him?

Oh, yeah. He’ll give you stress ulcers alright. He’s not so bad once you get to know him, like a feral cat you befriend through patience and feeding.

You were Robin as a teenager though, right?

You taught me how to fight on the top of a moving train. A gym seems tame. But since I haven’t seen a train yet...

Am I just Cassie in my world? Because Rose is on my team.

I'll keep that in mind for when he ever comes back.

Yeah. Bruce took me in after my parents died and realized I needed to be doing something else than obsess and grieve. Couldn't stop running away, either.

Alright, alright. We'll find something more challenging.

Haha no. Unless you can fly. You're really important older, a little, in my world. Besides, you're Batman at the moment.

Yeah- that's no different to my world. Bruce has a habit of taking in kids that probably need therapy rather than learning how to punch things.

Gym is fine, we'll just have to go no holds barred. It'll be nice to see a familiar fighting style have a friendly sparring session rather than dodging poisoned shurikens.

Oh, why Detroit and not Bludhaven?

Detroit was hiring.

You weren't then, either. But the last guy that took over when Bruce wasn't being Batman messed up and none of us wanted that to happen again. And, y'know, I'm not tall enough to fill out the Batsuit.

No argument from me. Having something to do kept me sane after everyone in my life just died on me.

Fair enough.

I opted for a quiet mental break down instead. Because apparently after Jason I still think taking on children is even a remotely good idea.

Jason seems to have it covered.

Just as long as you don't get yourself arrested. It doesn't come recommended. And solitary less so.

I could involve Diana. She and Donna are really good at putting us in our place.

Alright. Beer?

That was the point. To let Wilson know I'd gotten the message.

I think there's ice in the freezer, Bruce.
