action/video 001; un: d.wayne Communal housing Floor 2.

[sonofab]

[Damian stares down his ...social worker... as she speaks. The woman explains the room, his bi-weekly stipend, the works. Still, Damian stares her down with a burning intensity that just screams 'I am displeased. Go. away. No mask, no Robin gear, just a pissed off teenager in a hoodie.

Clearing her throat nervously, she does leave and that's why Damian takes in his room. It didn't matter what the room looked like really, Damian wasn't having this communal living nonsense. He sees the extra beds in the room and ...that is just too many roommates. This is was 24-hour surveillance and he was not having that.

He frowns down at the device and switches it on. Have an annoyed looking ... 10-year-old? (No, he's 13 dammit, don't just assume things from his small stature!) glaring down at the camera.]

This communal living thing is not happening. What's the price range for houses or private apartments around here?

Lame, but fine. Hint 1: black hair. Hint two: From Gotham. Hint Three: Batsteak.

[sonofab]

[Well black hair doesn't narrow it down at all. From Gotham? Okay, that's a good one. Batste--

Goddammit.

He fights the kneejerk reaction to start typing in all caps. If this was who he thinks it is, then that is exactly what they wanted and Damian didn't like being predictable.]

Unoriginal as ever TODD.
Could've at least made it a challenge.
And your old heart can't take steak anymore, try looking into oatmeal.

[hititwithacrowbar]

[ It was a shame he couldn't see the kid's face when he realized it. But, it made him laugh, even if he was still in bed and feeling like death had warmed over. ]

First off, its still a better name. Second off, If I said your mom, you would have lost your little mind. Lastly, bite me, I'm not that old, pipsqueak.

[ #worthit ]

[sonofab]

It is NOT because Batcow is no one's steak dinner, Todd.
Your vile infatuation with my mother would have also been a dead give away!
Old enough to be balding.
How has your hairline been doing over your time here?

[hititwithacrowbar]

Your not wrong, he would be many dinners, and a few breakfast's as well.
Anyway...
BITE ME, YOU PINT SIZED PITBULL!

[ Damian wins. ]

[sonofab]

[You monster!]

Over my dead body, Todd!
The only good thing about being trapped here is that you are trapped away from her too!
I'll take that as BAD. Are you full-on bald yet?

[Get used to that feeling Todd.]

[hititwithacrowbar]

[ Suddenly he wants to get a burger to text a photo. ]

That can be arranged.
Can we not talk about her? I want to make jokes, but well, you know.
Bite me, my hairs fine. Though I may rip yours out.

[ He didn't know yet that Talia was alive... or that Bruce is engaged. ... Or Tim being alive. ]

[sonofab]

[He meant the cow is a she but...]

You're the one that brought her up.
Stop picturing eating her!
I'm going to need some pictures as proof. I say your bald and just embarrassed.

[hititwithacrowbar]

[ WOAH, WHAT DID SHE TELL HIM! ]

Little D. Do you really want to talk about this? I mean, I had some ideas but it seems a bit fucked up to talk to her kid about that kind of shit.

[ He has a fever, his comprehension is down... ]

Um no, I'm not sending you pictures of me. That's creepy.

[sonofab]

[What the hell? He just thought you wanted to eat his cow, what is all this?!]

What are you talking about?

[Is that "Kid" thing a typo?]

What sick plans did you have for her? She never even did anything to you!

Since when are "Selfies" weird? I thought they were common practice.
Or are you admitting you are too old to "Selfie"?

[He might be getting his terms wrong? These modern fads were always so confusing to him, but he was almost 80% positive that's what Beast Boy called them.]

[hititwithacrowbar]

Your mom? Isn't that what were talking about because this is getting bad fast.

Uh, right, yeah.

I am not to old. Since I don't like sending pictures of myself to people? I mean come on, Lil D, that leaves a paper trail.

[sonofab]

WHAT?!
I was talking about BATCOW! SHE because COWS are female, you IDIOT!
What were you planning with my mother, you trader!

Of what? That you take bad pictures? Wait, how long have you been here?

[Did that mean Todd was hiding his identity here too? Sure back home Jason Todd was supposed to be dead, but here? Had he been here long enough to make enem-- Wait, it's Todd. He can make enemies in a day, so yes, he likely has.]

[hititwithacrowbar]

I was saying your mom's hot, that's all, little D.
[ hea letting the traitor remark go since he's to sick and well, after that mix up...]

I'm not going to eat your cow. It's a joke.

I don't take bad pictures, well not often I just don't want to, for many reasons. I've been here since early July.

[sonofab]

Vile Todd. You are vile.
It's not a funny one.

[Not that Damian much of a sense of humor.]

You said I was "Back"? Was I here before?

[hititwithacrowbar]

What else is new?

Yeah, you were here.

[sonofab]

Being on a moon? That's pretty new.

[I mean if you're asking.]

I don't remember any of it.

[Frowns. He hated when people knew something more about him than he did.]

[hititwithacrowbar]

For you, maybe.

[ Going into space with Kori didn't mean he'd ever really been on a moon, he just hated losing. ]

I can't give you many details, I didn't really see you much aside from... you know what. Let's get this shit out of the way. You steal anything else of mine and I will bring the pain. I don't care how old you are, or what Dick says.

[sonofab]

What are you talking about?
Only thing I stole from you was your stupid helmet three years ago.
But if you want a round two, Todd, then so be it.
More than happy to kick your sorry ass AGAIN.

[hititwithacrowbar]

No, you did that shit here again not long after I arrived.

[ Before Tim left... he had to remind himself, which sucked. Tim knew... and yet he choose to go back.]

Bring it half-pint.

[sonofab]

Obviously I did it again to make a point and judging from your reaction, that point was made.
Tell me where you are, coward and I will.

[hititwithacrowbar]

If the point is that your a kleptomaniac its been more than made.

[ He had no right, yet he didn't care.]

Didn't I tell you to impress me. Good luck, brat.

[sonofab]

[Damian slowly smirks at his phone. Truly you brought this ruin upon yourself, Todd, but a challenge has been presented and Damian was never one to turn down a challenge.]

[hititwithacrowbar]

[ And Jason being the idiot he could be tossed his phone to the end of the bed and curled back under his covers to sleep more.]
