Did Bruce want to be bothered? No. He didn’t. But Tim was going to bother him with this. It was an exception. Probably one of the few things he’d barge in for— “The body isn’t Joker.”

He just.. went still. In the chair for a minute. Blinked again. Stared. Nope. It wasn’t changing. “I need.. to call Bruce.”

[ Tim snorted, watching Asha get all angry at him. And then vanish— Probably back to Damian’s room? ] Yeah— yeah. Take my bike. It’s not like anyone’s been using it

[ Tim just watched with his eyebrows raised.. trying to bite back amusement. Listening to her very obviously hinting at Yeray. ] Right.. right. Of course he does. That’s good.. I didn’t want to call Constantine.

Tim’s rubbing a hand over his eyes, blinking them clear. Looking up at the bright screens to see how the DNA was processing..

// I DIDNT SEE THISJHFFK there has to be balance🥺 sillies or serious writing🙂‍↕️ sometimes both together…… the mpreg turned serious.. it WAS a joke….. i lovee youuuuuuuuu!

[ Tim listened, some fondness bleeding onto his face. Hearing how far Bart and Thad had come… they really were brothers now. And who could’ve guessed that? After what happened? ] I.. wasn’t sure. How you’d feel about it. Especially that first kiss, when he tried to kill me with anaphylaxis. I —

That’s what.. Jason was thinking. I’m waiting for the DNA analysis

I’m running the DNA already. Hood recovered the bodies with the Flash and.. an agent

………….. Just.. More cheese.

“I wouldn’t.” A thin, sort of sympathetic smile. If it really was Ronnie.. Well, that wasn’t going to be easy. At all. He could try to get some sort of proper funeral arrangements for him…. “Have fun with that— Barry?”

That was.. dealt with. “Alright. You’re pretty okay. Maybe avoid.. breathing any smoke.” Tim needed to check on Barry..

“You can put your life on the line for me.. in there….” Just.. setting him in a containment cell. With cheese.

Well, Tim was going through standard procedure. Checking all of that himself. Also, an oxygen mask by the cot if Rose needed it. Either from the smoke or.. panic attacks. Over it. That’s also what the blanket he passed him was for. Shock. Tim was almost done and ready to give him the all-clear —

… [ There are many, many reasons going through Tim’s head, on the contrary. He’s just giving a flat look, and putting on gloves. ] Later. Dami can take you upstairs and show you the dogs, too. If you’re up for it— But right now? I need to check for injuries, burns, or smoke inhalation..

Batcow can help later.. if he wants to see her. I need space in here to work. [ And keep the medbay sterile….. ]

Please.. don’t bring the cow into the medbay—

The GCPD are pulling up on scene….

“.. his cat?” Well. That wasn’t Tim’s problem. Alfred, the human, might get on him for it later. Having the pets where they might mess with things down in the cave. “That’s sweet of him. I need to check you out for burns though.” Shock was already a guarantee. Maybe the cat will help with that.

The DNA samples, Tim got them from Jason, before he left. He didn’t try to stop him. It would’ve pissed him off, and not work anyway. Roy was probably heading to check on his brother after the news came up already. Tim could let it go. Quick, efficient, he was at the batcomputer. Getting the —

“Tea’s.. calming.” Tim’s eyes glanced over when he heard the bike revving in the tunnel. Hood was back. And.. he definitely wasn’t sticking around. Tim wouldn’t try making him, either. He left Rose’s side for a minute, just to start getting the samples running. Once Jason handed them over.

“Cats— in the cave—“ Whatever. Tim wasn’t going to fight that right now.

Tim.. squinted at Barry. But fine. He’d just check him later. “We keep coffee down here.. but Alfred might’ve left tea by it. Kitchen upstairs if not.” A short gesture to the Keurig, and he was going to show Rose to the medbay, letting him get on a cot.

Tim’d been waiting. For everyone to get back. He tried not to think about the look on Rose’s face.. or how the man had sounded earlier. With Ronnie. “You can get tea after I see you’re all not hurt. Burns, smoke inhalation. All that stuff.”

[ This was.. the last sort of thing Jason should’ve been sent to deal with. But the other Bats weren’t responding. And Tim was benched. He hated being benched. ] Focus on evac. Building structure isn’t stable. [ Monotone instruction. Better for Jason, and him. Listening to Rose break down…. ]

[ Tim already had his head in his hands. ] I’ll.. order you one?

[ Tim was.. watching the feed. Through Jason’s helmet. Seeing it when he did. ] Damn it…..

… exactly why you aren’t allowed..

Chaos is the LAST thing we need with bombs and burning buildings

NO.

He said he’s an agent or something— And Joker and Ronnie both respond better to him? If they’re in there..

.. you KNEW he was going to do something—?

If that’s a lie, we’re having a long talk I’ll send you Jason’s location, he’s on it

… secret agent

Ronnie..? Shit— I still can’t let you go in there, that isn’t safe—

.. ROSE? I can’t send civilians—

I’M NOT— That is— not a priority— WHAT exploded? Who can get on scene—

DEFINITE explosion

They were figuring out the whole ghost possession issue….. Nothing major. Then the Manor 𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙤𝙠, bats flying from the Cave ceiling. Alerts blaring from the computer. “What— 𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘵—“ And Tim? He wouldn’t be able to do anything, and Babs was probably already on it, but he ran over to look at the —
