When:Today~
Where:the complex

Dick had just returned from his little vacation with Clark that had been meant to clear his head. It really had done wonders. Had he stayed in Kansas any longer with the Bruce and Jason issues going on he might have exploded from drama. Something had to give and if it wasn't going to be one of them, it was going to be him. The mountain air had done good in helping him clear the negative energy. He felt more like himself then he had in weeks since arrival. It'd been nearly a non stop drama drowning with the Joker and Harley, and then with Bruce and Jason. There was only so much one guy could take. Now however he seemed at peace. He was comfortably dressed in the kitchen complex, wearing a pair of sweats and a wife beater and preparing tea that he'd brought back from the mountain pass.

He couldn't help but wonder where Damian was. It'd been a while since he heard from his kid brother. He actually found himself wanting to spend time with him which was rare in itself. When Damian had first arrived back home he'd been less then thrilled to have another sibling wearing the Robin title. Now Damian had grown into it, come so far from the snotty little ten year old boy he knew and didn't love so much. He cared about others and carried the title well on his own right. Dick was proud to have him wear it, even if it was a little odd that Robin was a name given to him and passed through the Bat Family. Robin had been given to him by his mother and Bruce kind of adopted it. He wasn't sure whether or not to be honored or conflicted, so he just stuck with neutral.

His eyes were tired as he watched the tea pot warm up on the stove. "Watched Pots never boil Master Grayson." He could practically hear Alfred's voice in the back of his mind, but still that didn't stop him from waiting. He was impatient.

The Marvel DC thing was an ongoing snarkfest between her and the 'other company' ever since she'd found a online thing of Deadpool being mean to some guy with a weird inkblot looking facemask. Of course it being Wade it might well have been something he already knew about. He was weird like that, or given her predicament now it could be said that he had been right all along. Maybe he had actually got some power to see worlds like this and that's why he always came off so messed up. Or maybe he was the sane one. No, no it couldn't be that. The very thought gave her a headache.

"Tea is faster but coffee is better." Morning Felicia was not the most together at the best of times and she'd just had a thought process that made Deadpool seem momentarily sane. It was shaping up to be one of those mornings and she didn't like it. She should go steal something pretty really. Or listen to Mr DC. Scaling Everest was very much a them thing. She was sure it was all kinds of thrilling but it was a bigass mountain and they were aliens. They were allowed do things like that. "I'm glad you had fun all the same." she told him, "Sometimes getting away is really the best thing you can do. Take a break, recharge, the whole thing. I've never done much legit but I did good holidays, all over the place. My family used to vacation in Aspen."

Rich girl cat burglar. She knew it seemed ridiculous. But the DC boys never really tried to stop her, or she was just too good for them. Probably totally that latter one.

As for what he'd missed. "Do you want the story of the batshit Russian or the batshit Irishman, or any of the other myriad of crazy we deal with? Honestly I've mostly just been working, actual legit working too. I'm doing PR for Tony Stark. It's been...interesting to say the least. It's why I stayed here last night actually, I still keep my rooms here and its closer than home or To...or anywhere else" she added, hoping he'd let the slip go, as the coffee machine finally went off and Feicia almost lunged for it to pour out her strong black coffee. The first sip was all she needed.

"That's better." she said with a sigh.

He smirked at her comment. "Fair enough. If only there had been real coffee houses up there maybe I'd move this stuff faster. But noo I had to go and buy tea." Offering a shrug as he leaned back in his chair and drank from his mug. It still tasted like the mountain. Still refreshing. "Then again..it isn't so bad." Relaxing was a rare thing for him. His paranoia and issues made it difficult to do so on a regular basis. Even his vacations usually turned into cases. He remembered how mad it used to make Barry.

"I think we needed it. Clark too. He's Superman, but even he can't do everything all the time. This choice was his. The next one vacation-assuming we ever get one again is mine." If he had it his way he would take a real vacation, no cases, no mysteries to be solved, just total rest. Maybe even a cute girl who gives messages.

As for why he hadn't tried to stop her, frankly it just wasn't his style. He was more major crime. Batman tended to take care of the cat burglars.

"Batshit.." He snickered. "You have no idea how many times I used that phrase around Bruce just to annoy him as a kid." He stated as he ran a hand through his dark hair and raised an eyebrow."Hmmm..."He'd caught her little slip up, but really wasn't a fan of Tony Stark. Save for upgrading his suit like he said he would, the guy was a total douche bag.

"How about the batshit Irishman for starters? My curiosity is peaked."
