Did Red Hood drop you?

[backwordscompatible]

Is that "yes"?

[superissues]

Weirdly enough, said friend and Red apparently get on even worse than you and Red.

C'mon, if I was going to give you to anyone else to mind, I could have done worse, right?

[backwordscompatible]

[She has to sigh. Because it's the only way she can avoid admitting that he was may sort of a little almost right.]

It's not that we don't get along.

We just...I don't even know how to explain it. It's weird.

[superissues]

Did you have this 'weird' vibe before he tied you up and you tried to kill him?

[backwordscompatible]

Kind of.

The rope burns definitely didn't help, though.

[superissues]

I don't know, Zee. The way you keep going on about it, it's almost like you enjoyed it.

[backwordscompatible]

[Flatly:]

Yes. Clearly. You've found me out.

[superissues]

It's cool, Zatanna. You're in good company.

Apparently, 90% of all Americans have bondage fantasies and 50% of Americans try bondage at least once.

[backwordscompatible]

Only because the rest are lying about it.

[superissues]

Obviously.

[backwordscompatible]

Jokes aside, though...don't do that again. Got it?

[superissues]

While I'd love to make that promise ...

If we want me to be able to keep it, we're gonna need to formulate a better team response to these things. I mean, I've been thinking about our response and even allowing for ghosts and walls and possessions ... we made a lot of rookie mistakes.

Really rookie mistakes.

[backwordscompatible]

[Normally, this might be the part where she'd point out that she was a rookie, except like Hades she would ever point out that she was, technically, still a rookie. Compared to the others, at least.]

What do you suggest? Team meetings?

[superissues]

A team plan. Like --okay, I know I'm not team, but Conner is, so like hell you're getting rid of me so something like, Haven shit happens we meet at location A, can't leave the apartments, we meet at B. And stick together.

[backwordscompatible]

[Excuse you, Kon, she heard all of that.]

Uh-uh. Nice try, but you are definitely a part of this team as much as any of us. Conner or no Conner.

[superissues]

[Kon takes a moment to savour that. He doesn't know if Zatanna means that, or she's trying to make him feel better, but it's nice to hear regardless. Even if he can't forget their argument before the tunnelling thing.]

No Conner is not an option either. Um.

So, plans? And we're getting Beast Boy and Red Hood in on this, too, right? I mean, BB for sure. Red Hood will probably pretend he is too cool to associate with us.

[backwordscompatible]

Of course. The more, the merrier.

He can pretend he's cool as an ice cube, but I think we all know better.

[superissues]

Totally.

And I didn't include Imp because he goes without saying, but then I remembered he's not part of the team in your time, right?

[backwordscompatible]

'Imp', huh?

I like it. It suits him. But otherwise, yeah. I mean...he is a part of Conner's Team. And he seems like one of us.

[superissues]

He sort of grows on you. Trust me on that -- he's my other best friend.

[backwordscompatible]

Why am I not surprised?

[superissues]

Because you have seen the kind of company I keep.

[backwordscompatible]

This is true.

[superissues]

Then again, you are also the kind of company I keep.
