[OPEN/CLOSED] A Robin came a-knockin’
Who: Jason Todd robintohood and you
What: Jason’s been deaged back to his early Robin years. Antics ensue. Also contains one special closed prompt
When: January 3rd-4thish, during the age swap event
Where: Central City
Content Warnings: None for now. Will edit if needed.
[Somewhere in Central City is a small boy in a red, yellow, and green costume. It’s hard to forget someone in a colorful suit like that.
That is, assuming you can catch a good enough look at him. He’s effortlessly using his grappling gun and parkour skills to swing around and jump rooftops. You might see him as he tries to get a lay of the land.
Alternatively, you might see him fearlessly (or recklessly, depending on how you look at it) pounce right on top of a would-be armed mugger. He might not know where he is but that doesn’t mean he’s going to stop fighting crime. It’s what any good sidekick would do.]
Attic Safehouse above the Descendant Bar (Closed to people who use the safehouse)
[Later that night, Robin is exhausted but isn’t ready to trust just any place to rest for the night. For now, he’s just perched on top of the Descendant, near the attic window]

They make fun of you for the tail?

[ But this is starting to bum her out, so instead of talking about school, she jumps to a happier subject! ]
What about you? Do you go to school? What's your partner like?
no subject
[To Jason, it's so odd for someone to see him in his Robin suit and not associate him with Batman but he's always happy to show off who he works with]
My partner's a big guy dressed in black and kinda looks like a bat. Not a real one but you can tell from his suit what he's going for. He's amazing and kicks butt all the time!
no subject
Is he a vampire??
no subject
No but bad guys should be afraid of him anyway. You never know when he's gonna pop up.
no subject
[ Tell her that is not the coolest concept ever! ]

[ the only thing cooler than a crimefighting vampire: a crimefighting vampire who does cool flips! ]

no subject
[ She's trying to think of colourful multicoloured animals, and coming up with 'poisonous tree frogs', but it seems rude to make assumptions about superhero names! ]
no subject
Call me Robin! Together, Batman and I are the dynamic duo!
no subject
[ there are stars in her eyes! This kid is the best! ]
Do you have powers, too? Can you jump real high or real far?
no subject
[Jason takes out his grappling gun, fires the hook near the rooftop of a taller building nearby, and swings. He manages to do a couple of impressive acrobatic flips before nailing the landing]
See!
[Jason fires his hook and does more acrobatics as he lands near Doreen again]
no subject
[ This is not a birthday wish that will come true! ]
Do you want to race? Or just go for a run or something? I... sorry, I've never met anyone my age who does stuff like this, we don't have to if you don't want to, or if you have somewhere to be!
no subject
What about your parents? Would they be okay with that?
no subject
[ Doreen's expression goes a bit wooden, because she was also terrible at lying when she was a little kid! How do you say "my parents aren't here to worry about me because I got teleported to another dimension" without getting sent to a police station or something? ]
Maybe? Probably... I have adult supervision! She can come with me, her name's Tippy.
[ A grey squirrel with a pink bow (that Jason may recognize when he's back to normal) skitters up Doreen's shoulder and gives him an unmistakable 'points at eyes, points at you' gesture. ]
no subject
Are you sure? I don't want them to worry.
no subject
[ The answer is a little too quick. ]
They're... away. On a business trip? [ That sounds credible, right? It's easier to explain than the whole 'kidnapped to another dimension but that Loki kid says its only temporary, so don't worry about it'. ] But they know I'm super tough, and can handle anything.
no subject
Who's watching you then?
no subject
[ Oh boy, he might not take this well. ]
... Tippy is? And a bunch of her friends. [ She nods towards her open window... which is now crowded with about two dozen squirrels, all clambering to see over each other. ] It's complicated.
no subject
Whoa. They're all your friends?
no subject
[ might want to cut her off, the introductions could take a while! ]
no subject
Okay, I get it. And well, they can come along too while we run along!
[Doreen will be with him at least and he's completely responsible. And so far these squirrels seem nice?]
