( this is very much from bruce's device, especially what with his and jason's trackers being reactivated again. )

Jason made it back. He's in one piece.

( and that's all. )

[torchbearer]

Is that it?

[batsymbol]

Seemed imperative to let everyone know.

[torchbearer]

A little light on detail though.

[batsymbol]

I'm still not entirely sure where we were. But time seemed to move differently than it does here.

[torchbearer]

Maybe take it easy with the shadow powers from now on.

[batsymbol]

( no. )

Anything to report on this side?

[torchbearer]

[ frysquint. ]

Just some minor monster hunting.

[batsymbol]

We had a bit of that where we were.

( this part becomes encrypted to private. )

Saw you made sure Jason was well-equipped.

[torchbearer]

Well. I figured it'd be useful. In blackest night and all that.

[batsymbol]

Came in handy a few times.

( after a bit of back and forth with himself. )

How’s Diana?

[torchbearer]

Nothing beats a Lantern ring.

She's fine. We ran the mission together, in fact.

[batsymbol]

( good to know. because. yeah. )

It went well?

[torchbearer]

It went well.

It's Diana.

[reneger]

miss me?

[torchbearer]

I'm not answering that over text message.

[reneger]

if you're planning on kicking my ass can you do it before babs comes over?

[torchbearer]

She can watch if she wants.

[reneger]

( so kyle is really pissed.

on a private filter. because he's not sure what he did and also because he should probably - )

sorry

[torchbearer]

[ . . . okay. he does deflate a little. sorries aren't often passed around. ]

I merit more than a text.

Also Babs contacted me.

[reneger]

( fuck. )

i came straight home
before i even stopped to charge my phone

[torchbearer]

I'll come back.

Do you need anything?

[reneger]

just you

[torchbearer]

I won't be long.

[reneger]

i'm not going anywhere any time soon

[torchbearer]

[ he doesn't need to respond to that. he feels any response would feel tepid compared to his rush back to the apartment, to check, to see and calm the wild rush of his heart. he's always afraid of coming back and seeing — seeing the worst.

he slips through the window, looking around. ]
