Are any of you capable of flying or jumping at least four stories high?

Yes.

Why?

[bestrobin]

I might need to catch something if it falls from on top of a building.

[advanced]

You're thinking of enlisting help if it falls?

How likely is it to fall?

[This sounds HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS.]

[bestrobin]

​Yes. I'm capable of climbing that high, but catching something that weighs more than I do while it's falling requires a bit more.

I'd say about a 98% chance.

( Why so paranoid, Bucky? )

[advanced]

[This just sounds more and more dodgy, like he's going to be throwing or pushing something rather than it falling.]

Is it breakable if it hits the ground?

[bestrobin]

Why else would I bother to catch it?

[advanced]

Why would you drop it, then?

[Because there's no way this is going to be an accidental 'fall'.]

[bestrobin]

Testing a theory.

( Nope. Not even as little bit of an accident. )

[advanced]

I might be willing to catch it if you tell me what it is and what the theory is.

[You are a very suspicious young man, Damian Wayne.]

I have a friend who can fly and has had a recent issue with his powers.

Scaring him might get his powers back in order.

[advanced]

Sounds dumb and dangerous.

There's got to be a reason there's issues with his powers, ones more complex than pushing him off a roof will solve.

[bestrobin]

​That's why I'm taking steps to mitigate danger.

Of course there is. I've already considered that. This isn't all I'm doing to help them.

( Don't underestimate him, Bucky. )

[advanced]

This sounds like a stupid idea, but if you insist on going through with it then I'll catch them. I'm not letting someone fall to their death when I can prevent it.

[bestrobin]

​( How dare you call his idea stupid, Bucky. He will break your real arm. B( )

No one said anything about dying.

[advanced]

Whatever.

Call me when it's happening.

[He doesn't believe that it wouldn't end in death, but he's not arguing it. He'll end it on that order, just hanging up the call.]
