Juno popped. She's okay. Recovering. It's a boy.

I need to go for a little while.

Kimber
I need a rain check for the rain check. Sorry.

Dinah
Juno needs a friend and somebody who can give her advice on the mom thing. You'd really help her out if you could just reach out or something.

So I was trying to think of something that would keep my doppleganger both out of the mansion and off of welfare/the streets. So. The best I could come up with is that you... get an apartment in the city and pay for baby expenses for a while until she can get a job and start earning a living. It's a really shitty idea, but the alternative is that she works five jobs while her kid sits in daycare all day. And that's crap. No kid should grow up like that and no sixteen year old kid should work her life away.

So.

I'm really sorry to ask you for something so huge. I wouldn't if there were any other options but there aren't any that I see. I promise, I'll pay you back for everything. It'll take a long time, but I will work it off.

	I thought..I would offer my assistance. If you need any help, Carrie. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I don't think I need anything right now. But thanks. It's cool of you to offer. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I can work something out. If she would meet with me, I could also help her find a job, maybe something more palatable. No need to consider yourself in debt, Carrie. It's about time for me to find a new philanthropy project. And Carrie? I'm proud of you. (Reply to this) (Thread)

Actually, I found her a place with Selina. I know Selina's not our best friend or anything, but I'm sure she'll look after Juno. It's probably better that Juno and her kid aren't alone, anyway. But I'm pretty sure that she could still use help with getting a job in a few weeks. So I'll talk to her about that and set her up to meet you something.

I'm always in your debt.

Don't be proud of me. I'm not doing anything special.

	Selina? Carrie, just because Selina isn't currently a wanted criminal doesn't mean she's a good role model for a child. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Juno needs a guardian. Selina's not into crime at the minute. I'm going to talk to Juno about it to make sure she doesn't follow in her footsteps.

For all her faults, Bruce, Selina would never put Juno in danger. I don't think she'd be anything but supportive. And I've talked to her about what she does. She'll keep Juno out of it, if/when she does start stealing again.

	You asked me for help, didn't you? Trust me to handle it instead of turning to semi-reformed villains. I can make sure she isn't left completely to her own. I wouldn't just dump her in an apartment and buy her some diapers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm not going to make you take care of yet another orphan. Especially a dumb teenager. Who knows, she might get it into her head that she wants to be Robin... what are we up to? Five? Six? I trust Selina. And I need to do this my way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Carrie darkcrusader 2008-01-13 06:52 pm UTC (link)
	I wouldn't keep her in the mansion. And it wouldn't be me checking in on her. Fine. Do it your way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nice how quickly you went from being proud of me to storming off, Boss. Thanks. This week hasn't been shitty enough. I needed some wrath of Batman to enrich the experience. (Reply to this) (Parent)
