[ It's gotta be the hottest night of the year so far, even with the windows open and the fans on full blast. Too hot to patrol (what self-respecting criminal would be out right now anyway?), and too hot for Dick to sleep. So he pads silently down the hall in his Angry Birds pajamas (yes, he thinks he's hilarious) and into Wally's bedroom.

Oh, good. Fast asleep.

Quiet and stealthy, Dick perches next to him on the bed, sitting with his legs tucked under him and uncapping a Sharpie. Hopefully Wally's not too ticklish, because Dick's just gonna play connect-the-dots with his freckles by the light of the moon filtering in through the window until either he wakes up or Dick finishes a full-on mural. Or he gets bored. ]

So that was weird.
Are you busy right now?

any luck?

[ sent while Wally's at work: ]

I need you to run some errands for me.

Beach date with Artemis! Don't wait up for me.

If you can tear yourself away from cannibals and rotten produce for a moment, what house do I need to be dropping off a box of cupcakes to?

FYI: NOT kidnapped or in trouble. I got ported out temporarily. Please get back to me and tell me you have NOT pissed off the Shade.

whats a spud

So if I run away and re-join the circus, you wanna come? You'd make a great sideshow attraction.

[ It would sound like one of his bad jokes, if it was the kind of thing he joked about. ]

Hey can you eat as many freezies as you can pancakes?

if decide to come slinking back anytime soon i moved the spare key under the door mat in the back

[Someone's practicing their texting. Sorry, Wally.]

have u ever tried to eat a clock??? its very time consuming

[ Dick arrives home from work later than usual this evening, and makes his way somewhat precariously up the stairs to Wally's room. He's carrying a plastic box of sixteen cupcakes (clearly store bought, thank god), a small pack of candles, and a giftwrapped package — yellow wrapping paper and a red bow, of course. ]

Surpriiiise! Guess what day I think it might chronologically be!

KF? You're late. What's going on?

[Maybe Wally needs something to take his mind off of the last few days, or maybe his friend is passed out somewhere or pigging out on a buffet somewhere. He doesn't know but not being able to talk to Wally because he'd disappeared inside some mountain that had a crazier defense system then Mount Justice had been worrying. Wally is supposed to be there, to text him in the middle of the night or something. It had been weird when it wasn't.]

why is talking to family so awkward especially family you never knew you had or are from alternate universes

[What is that greeting even...?!]

...Mr. West, my name is Yuri Petrov. I have been given a message from Ms. Mathilda Lando to give to you.

[He is not repeating it word-for-word for reasons, so here is his best attempt at translating it:]

Ms. Lando is under the impression that you are indebted to her for services rendered and not yet paid for, as well as for damages incurred to her personal property. Please rectify this immediately.

[With colorful language like theirs, it's no wonder these two found each other during the Summer Games kidnappings. Birds of a feather...]

[...and with nothing more to say, Yuri mutters an exasperated Goodbye and disconnects.]

[ sends a short text his way after talking to tony stark for the sake of the follow-up she'd said shed have one day

just these days it's after every really shitty day ]

Wasn't sure if you were actually interested, but I put in a word with Tony Stark, if you did want to pick up part time work with something related to whatever he gets running around here. He wants to talk with you (if you're interested) - means either way you have an excuse to talk with him when you want.

An excuse that isn't about politics, that is.

[ Around noon, Dick pokes his head into Wally's room. It's dark in there, and it's kind of a mess, Dick's blankets and pillows still in a heap on the floor. He's not sure if Wally's still sleeping, or just...

Well.

Dick grabs half of the pile, making a nest beside Wally on his bed and climbing in next to him. ]

What do physically active teenagers do for dates or relaxation days in your country?

We need to talk about Annie.

[ He's not sure if text message is the proper venue for this sort of news (it breaks an awful lot of unspoken social rules), but he figures Wally might appreciate being spared having to deal with uncomfortable emotions face to face. ]

Wally?

I think Artemis went home.

[This message comes from the Blue Beetle's ID, not Jaime's - only because he's sending this as he's flying back to Heropa.]

Think I have a lead on the kidnappers. When I get the intel back you want in?

HEY WALLY GUESS WHAT

Two antennas met on a roof, fell in love, and got married. The ceremony wasn't much, but the reception was great.

You're right. I'm a jerk.

But I'm not wrong.

hey if i break the law and a bcome a wanted fugitive cn i crash at ur place
