Any job recommendations for an out-of-work vigilante-slash-crime-lord? The grocery budget can only last so long without fresh infusions of cash, especially when you're feeding an eighty-pound dog.

If you have muscle, it's been my experience that physical labor can be found almost anywhere. Or, if you have fighting skill, there is a gym where you can teach others how to fight. That is where I've found a job here.

Any mechanic work around here?

I can fight. Not sure if it's the kind of fighting I want to pass on to someone else, though.

On the mechanized vehicles? Yes, I think so.

What sort of fighting would be bad for someone to learn?

Cars and motorcycles, mostly. I can work on other things, too.

The kind that kills people.

They have both of those here, I believe. And shops for them.

Are you trained only to kill from a distance? No combat involved beforehand?

Might have to look and see if any of them are hiring. Thanks. I take it you're new to automobiles.

I can kill just about any way that you can come up with. Doesn't mean I use all of them, but I'm not as restrained as the rest of the family.

My world is a bit behind this one in terms of mechanics and technology. But we do have quite a bit more magic.

As a soldier, that is a skill I can appreciate. I mainly meant that perhaps you could teach the fighting part without the killing part, but if you've settled on a mechanic job, it's probably a moot point.

Guess that might even things out.

It's a nice thought, but there's a whole lot more wrapped up in how I fight than the fighting itself. Training I'm not even sure I'd want to pass on to another Robin. Besides, Dick's the teacher in the family.

If everyone had access to it, perhaps. Most don't. The Grisha - magic folk - usually live much more comfortably than the rest of us.

I understand. Seems best to stick to the mechanics, then.

Let me guess. They don't do much to help everyone else.

Probably, at least for now. If there's a call for my other set of skills ... I've never been shy about using them.

It depends on which Grisha you're talking about. Many of them, not really. Some of them use their abilities for reasons I really disagree with.

I've had much less need for my own violent skills here; hopefully you'll have a reprieve from yours as well.

Such as?

Inspiring fear to have power over others, hurting and killing to maintain that power, gaining immortality, and so on.

I wish you luck with that one. I'm not sorry for the break, but I'm not immune to restlessness.

Nice to know that game stays the same across dimensions.

Been fighting so long I'm never sure what to do without it.

You're a mechanic too?

B decided to put my tire-jacking skills to better use repairing the Batmobile.

That's awesome. My brother would kill for that job

Man, you and my brother would get along so well.

Either that or you'd want to kill each other, I can't decide which.

I've mostly moved beyond the murder thing.

And he only kills monsters, so you'll probably be okay. You might have to convince him you're not a shifter who stole his face, though.

I came by this magnificent piece of work honestly, thanks very much.

Which is exactly what a shifter wearing his face would say.

So what's your recommendation? Because Bruce taught us the way to assuage paranoia is to do a DNA test and check for signs of cloning.

Just let him give you something silver to touch, and if you don't blister from it, you'll be good. Shifters can't handle silver.

Hell of a lot easier than Bruce's methods.

That's step one of what is no doubt an eighty-step plan outlined somewhere on the Batcomputer.

At least that's step one for him. I think that's down at step 6-13 depending on the mood and how much 'punch, yell, punch, yell' cycle happens.

There's a provision for moving punching and yelling to the head of the line.
