Re: August 13th, dawn

[teenwonder]

[what language are you speaking, Zatanna?]

...But. We're teammates.

Re: August 13th, dawn

[noitatnacni]

[English :|]

And?

Re: August 13th, dawn

[teenwonder]

[ARE NOT.]

Don't you think that'll get in the way of our working relationship?

[Does it not also imply he'll have to stop working sometime?]

Re: August 13th, dawn

[noitatnacni]

[Are too. And it's not even backwards.]

That depends. Are you going to make out with me when we're in the middle of a fight?

[YEAH but there are benefits to that. The aforementioned making out possibly being one of them.]

Re: August 13th, dawn

[teenwonder]

That probably wouldn't be the best time for that...

[Because he's having trouble telling if she's being serious.]

Re: August 13th, dawn

[noitatnacni]

Then I'd say our working relationship is pretty safe.

[Half-serious.]

Re: August 13th, dawn

[teenwonder]

[GIRLS ARE CONFUSING.]

Then it sounds like I'm going to have to show you how to get into my apartment.

Re: August 13th, dawn

[noitatnacni]

...Really?

[That--isn't exactly what she'd been expecting him to say. Huh.]

Re: August 13th, dawn

[teenwonder]

You don't have enough privacy here.

[Artemis is RIGHT THERE, Z.]

Re: August 13th, dawn

[noitatnacni]

[Oooh. Now she gets it. Which means she gets to tease him about it.]

Afraid someone will walk in on us like Jason did?

Re: August 13th, dawn

[teenwonder]

[It almost makes him snort.]

He still might. Breaking and entering is one of our training exercises.

Re: August 13th, dawn

[noitatnacni]

We might be better off here then. Artemis will at least knock first.

[Somehow she doesn't think Jason will be that courteous.]

Re: August 13th, dawn

[teenwonder]

We'll alternate.

[He's got projects to think about.]

Re: August 13th, dawn

[noitatnacni]

Do I get to be penciled in on your schedule?

[That's seriously what this is sounding like. For the record? Not really romantic.]

Re: August 13th, dawn

[teenwonder]

I'll make room.

[You signed up for this, Z.]

Re: August 13th, dawn

[noitatnacni]

How generous of you.

[Uh huh. But Robin knows what they say about rules, right?]

So what's your schedule look like now?

Re: August 13th, dawn

[teenwonder]

It looks like I'm clear until tonight.

[Because who even needs to sleep ever, right? Right?]

Re: August 13th, dawn

[noitatnacni]

[Clearly not a pair of teenagers who are...whatever they are now.]

I'd say that's pretty convenient. [So she steps closer, and raises a hand to his face--but not to touch, strictly speaking. If he lets her, she's going to take off his mask. The movements are pretty easy to read though, in case Robin wants to stop her.]

Re: August 13th, dawn

[teenwonder]

[It's a strangely intimate gesture. Her hands come too close to quickly. He has five full seconds to defend himself, to pull away and keep her from violating his privacy. It just... doesn't feel all that private right now.

His mask is pulled away, leaving just Dick where Robin stood before. His arms slowly track out to embrace her elbows, providing contact without impeding her mobility.]

Yeah. Convenient.

Re: August 13th, dawn

[noitatnacni]

[He lets her take it off, and Zatanna can't quite contain a smile when she gets to see his face again. His eyes in particular, which she's decided are her favorite feature of his. She meets his gaze as she carefully lays the mask on her windowsill. She knows it's important to him, even if he probably has a dozen others.

Maybe it's more accurate to say she knows what it means for him to let her take it off.]

We shouldn't let that go to waste. [Her hands free, she places them lightly on his chest, then slides them up over his shoulders. She has to get a little closer to fold them together behind his neck, but that's okay. She's leaning in to kiss him anyway.]

Re: August 13th, dawn

[teenwonder]

[He lets her hands travel across his chest and shoulders, drawing her closer at the waist as she does. He doesn't protest until she leans in for another kiss. He turns a cheek to meet her lips this time.]

I thought you said you wanted to slow down, Zatanna.

Re: August 13th, dawn

[noitatnacni]

[It takes her by surprise, and Zatanna pulls back again, a small grin on her lips as Robin explains why.]

Yeah, I do. But we were going to do more on the roof than just kiss. [And slowing down doesn't mean giving up everything, right?]

Re: August 13th, dawn

[teenwonder]

Oh, is that what you thought? I was only trying to get you out of the way of that monster.

[A quick grin crossed his mouth, and he snatched Zatanna's waist and scooped her into his arms.]

I hear someone's going around being terribly dangerous to women. Leaving them bruised all over.

Re: August 13th, dawn

[noitatnacni]

You were, huh? [Zatanna has just enough time to be skeptical before she's being lifted. Her arms tighten around Robin, and she gasps in surprise before laughing softly.]

Hmm. Sounds like a very scary guy. Guess that means I should thank you for saving me from all those bruises.

Re: August 13th, dawn

[teenwonder]

Oh, you should. It would've been terrible for you.

[He presses her against the wall to give her something to lean against as his own weight shifts, leaning in to kiss and bite at her neck.]

Can you imagine how terrible it must've been for those poor victims? [His voice grew low and breathy, body drawing air in short bursts as he sucked at the bit of skin that held his full attention.] What kind of pain they were in. Helpless and scared..
