How much for these?

[The shops in Fisherman's Horizon aren't all that whelming. At least the air here is clean compared to Gotham. It feels... weird. Nice, but weird. There's a young boy with dark hair and blue eyes browsing a little way's away from Drunkman Alley. He gets himself a pair of sunglasses — or tries to, until the shop owner makes a face and tells him there's a "problem".]

Huh? Oh — gil, right. Sorry, my bad.

[The kid takes back the American bills, rifling through his pockets for a few seconds before replacing them with a bunch of coins. Not sure if those shades match with the cadet uniform, but he seems to really want them... As soon as he's got them on, the boy seems more relaxed, hands back in his pockets as he wanders off.]

[~~Dick~~ ~~Robin~~ Dick will be investigating various parts of the locale if you want to run into him! Setting up any sort of scenario inside the Garden is cool, too.]

(ooc: Neville! Are you here somewhere? Robin is your roommate. :D Want to meet up at the inn or anything?)

[With a small bag of drinks from one of the local stores slung over his shoulder Conner's making his way back for the inn where not only is he staying, but most of the cadets as well for the duration of the month. His mind's a little preoccupied with thoughts of the dance and M'gann, not to mention the chicobo that had finally hatched days ago.

What the heck is he going to do with the chicobo and Dusan (his roommate's kitten)?

At first Conner doesn't really notice Robin - there's so many around already in Garden as it is - but a glance over in his direction makes him stop and stare for a moment.

Those shades...]

...Robin?

[He shouldn't react to that name so quickly when he's out of uniform — well, the superhero uniform — but he can't exactly help it. ~~Dick~~ Robin pauses amidst the thinned out crowd and makes sure he isn't hearing things. That voice... could it be?]

[He spins in place slowly, trying to catch a glimpse of who said his name. When he finds him, Robin's brows raise behind the newly bought shades. His eyes widen some, too, the a vague hint of them showing through the lenses; they aren't as dark as the pair he used back home (unfortunately).]

Su— Conner! [Right. He heard Supes got a civvy name. He'll just stick to that unless protests are made?]

[Conner's look is quizzical as he makes his way to where the younger teen stands. There's no protesting to the name, just a bit of confusion.]

You picked up on that one fast.

[Robin weaves his way around other people to meet Conner halfway. He looks... happy? Well, he was confused at first, but now he's sort of relieved to see a familiar face.]

What can I say? I'm a fast learner. [Well, fast enough. And you hear a lot of things in the Batcave.]

But you're... not supposed to be here. [His expression falls here. Supes is — was supposed to be at Happy Harbor.]

[He eyes that fallen expression for a short minute. What is that supposed to mean? Conner lowers the bag from his shoulder to hang at his side, brows knitting.]

Then where am I supposed to be? [Because really, it wasn't like the Bats went and said, "Hit up Balamb Garden and play it cool for a few months until I call you back to the cave.".]

Back at Happy Harbor? If you got whisked away to a different world, I'm pretty sure I would have heard.

Or did you get here at the same time as me? [Looking up expectantly for more info. Man, why do you have to be so much taller?]

[Conner blinks down at him and then shrugs a shoulder.]

It's been about two months. But I am not the only one.

What?! Two months?! [What even. Robin's pretty sure no one's been messing around with his memory, so why—]

[A pause to glance over one shoulder, than the other. Now Robin is grabbing Conner's sleeve and trying to tug him in one direction. Walk with him, bro.] Who else is here?

Hey! [But that's all the protest Conner will give other than jerking his arm out of Robin's grasp as he falls in step with him, scowling.]

Everyone. Everyone except for... Aqualad.

[HOLY OVERREACTION. Okay, okay, hands off. Robin puts both hands in the air before just... walking without the tugging. Sorry. He just doesn't want to stick to one place for too long if they're going to talk about team-related stuff.]

[Conner's got the super hearing thing, so Robin won't speak too loudly.] Seriously? That was some time trip...

[DEFINITELY! Conner just doesn't like to be dragged around like that, just like he hates being told what to do and how to do it. Sob. Okay okay. The scowl fades into a more serious look as he glances at him.]

They call it Time Compression...

Yeah. I got the tutorial last night. [He scratches at the back of his head absentmindedly as he thinks about when he got here. In his Robin outfit. Stashing that away and finding replacement clothes sure was fun.]

Have you guys been okay? Where are the others exactly? I didn't recognize anyone at the inn.

I... guess? [Not sure what else to say to being okay. They haven't found any wars or battles yet, just had to deal with things like building on their friendships not through fighting but through actually talking and hanging out. Don't forget about awkward moments that had to do with kissing and dances and carnivals...

Conner looks off in the direction of the inn.]

We got separated. I don't know where they are.

[Zoomzoom. After being stuck in class all day, Wally needs some room to stretch his legs out. That and he has a ton on his mind. The past week has been more than a little eventful. New world, new cousin, missing team members and complicated relationships with other team members.

When he's running, the world's like a perfect place. Everyone and everything becomes statue like. It's so...peaceful. No one is telling him what to do or where to go or what he's doing wrong. Smiles to himself as he whirs past a group of students and leaves the Garden.

It doesn't take long for him to spot a familiar figure. His eyes widen in excitement and he's ready for the world to move again. Comes to a skidding halt in front of Robin.]

Robin! Hey! You're finally here!

[Oh, goody. Typical teenage bonding.]

Well, we can find them, no prob. [A bit of a confident smile ~~reassured by the fact that Robin isn't technically alone anymore~~.] This place is tiny compared to Gotham.

[THE BEST KIND.]

All of it is.

[Robin jolts mid-step, leaning backward to keep from crashing into a not-brick wall. What the flying—]

Dude!

[HEY HEY KF HEY]

[HEY BROSKI]

Dude, you're late to the party. Granted, I thought we'd be out of here by now but nooo, the technology here has to be so bad. Like MS-DOS powered by a lemon bad. But with my scientific prowess and your technical know-how, we can kick start things into motion.

[Underhanded fist pump.]

[He laughs a bit at that. Good old Wally.]

Is it really that bad? Finding a way to uncompress time sounds way better than having to transfer schools. [And cities. And worlds. Whatever.]

It's pretty bad. I think my old Game Boy is more state of the art than the computers they have here. But it's okay, we got this.

[Raises up his fist. Brofist time.]

[Is wandering around trying to find some clothes to wear, as her wardrobe consists entirely of her cadet uniform, her Hawthorne academy uniform, her fencing outfit, and her Hawkeye costume. Oh, and the dress she managed to get for the dance. She's not looking for a whole wardrobe of clothes here, but some t-shirts and pants would be nice.]

Nice shades.

[This was... confusing.

Neville still had no idea how he'd made his way up to his room in the -he pulled out the now well read note he'd recieved on his arrival- Fisherman's Horizon Inn. Here he was, though. Apparently in another world and here to study to become a soldier. Fat chance of that. Neville was done with fighting.

One bed in the room showed clear signs of belonging to someone else so Neville sat gingerly on the other one and tried to think the situation through.]

[Oh hey Dick. Dick might have accidentally bumped into you as he made his way through.]

Whoops. Sorry about that! [He recognizes the cadet uniform though.] Oh? Are you a student at the Garden?

[There's something familiar about you, but he can't place it yet so he'll keep talking to you casually.] Instructor Grayson by the way. I guess if you aren't into formality then you can just call me Dick. A lot of other people usually do.

[Robin thinks about fishing for information, but reconsiders. He stops walking, turning to look up at Conner again.] Were you going somewhere? Before we ran into each other.

[Oops, he might have headed in the opposite direction from the inn. His bad.]

[It looks like Robin's about to brofist back — until he reaches up at the last second to mess Wally's hair.]
