the joined re-entrance of tim and kon!

[mini-supes.livejournal.com]

So, right. Kon hasn't been in the bar for a month because he's been isolating himself, and it must have been inclined to agree with him and not call him in, either. Probably because he would have just turned around and walked right back out. But recently, he's been contacted by two people close to him: first Raven, and then Tim. And he's not intending on isolating himself anymore.

He's not even thinking about the bar, yet. He hasn't had the time. But heading out of this with Tim, intending on going back to the house... well. The bar snuck up on them, as it tends to do. And the barn door, instead of yielding the outside, yielded a bar instead.

"...dude." Kon blinks in surprise, just staring for a moment. "This isn't where we're supposed to be..."

Not that he's complaining.

Steph hurls herself at them, down out of the rafters, and wraps one arm around each boy. "Tim! Kon! Tim! Kon! You're okay! Not dead! Are you okay? What's happening?"

Well, the bar would pick this moment to lure them in, wouldn't it? It seemed typical of the bar to pull such a trick. For them, it had been a month since they had visited the place. And that was, for them, a good while.

Shaking his head a little, he couldn't help but smile wryly at the familiar interior of the bar. Well, at least things seemed to be moving in a more familiar direction now. Quality time with Kon and an unexpected visit to the bar. Seemed more than normal occurences now, considering what they had gone through.

"At least you won't be called away to do chores?" Tim offered to the taller boy with a shrug.

But before he could say anything more, he and Kon were attacked by a familiar blonde figure.

"Steph, Steph," he said with a light laugh. "Calm down."

[mini-supes.livejournal.com]

"That is a point. Though I've kind of -- " Except Kon doesn't really have a chance to -finish- that statement, as Steph pounces them like... like she's possessed by Krypto or something.

"Steph, has it been a month for you, too?" He can remember seeing her... then. He hopes she hasn't spent a month with no information. That would suck a lot.

"Longer than that, I went away to help this rebellion on a planet far away but that's not the point, Dick said you could have been dead!" She shows no sign of letting either of them go. "And nobody knew, and I only saw Cassie once or twice flying up high, and I haven't been able to ask anyone, and Dick said you were hurt, and he said you were Luthor, which was creepy, but, Tim, you're okay."

[tim-drake.livejournal.com]

Since Steph showed no signs of letting either of them go anytime soon, Tim patted her back with his good arm, trying to get her to breathe and stop talking so rapidly. It was sort of a relief after not having heard it in so long, but at the same time, it was a bit overwhelming.

"Well, you seem to have the outline of it."

[mini-supes.livejournal.com]

Dick sure said a lot, didn't he? Kon makes a face at that. But at least he didn't have to explain it all himself. He'd rather not go through all of that.

"We're back now, anyway."

[i-spoiled-it.livejournal.com]

"I was so worried!" She pulls back a bit and stares at them, scrutinising their faces for signs of dead-ness or otherwise not-good-ness. Whatever she sees, it's ultimately reassuring, although it doesn't make her look exactly happy. "You're not, like, gonna do that again, are you Kon?"

[tim-drake.livejournal.com]

"Steph," Tim said with a frown in his voice as well as on his face. He didn't want Kon to feel guilty again about the events that had transpired, after all. His cast was enough of a reminder as it was.

[mini-supes.livejournal.com]

"We're going to try our best to make sure it doens't happen again." What else could he say? Kon couldn't pretend there wasn't that possibility. Not until they figured out a way to get rid of whatever triggers there were in his brain.

A blur of yellow, who has not been home for a while, shows up.*

Heya guys!

[tim-drake.livejournal.com]

Who else to expect in this place but a teammate of theirs? It would seem incomplete without this familiar face. Tim had to smile faintly despite himself.

"Hey," he said to the other boy.

[impulsivekid.livejournal.com]

Bart gives a super speed hug.

"Wassup?"

[tim-drake.livejournal.com]

If one wasn't used to those, they could get injured by those things.

"Things are getting back to normal, it seems," he said with a faint grin.

[impulsivekid.livejournal.com]

"Just finished talking Kon back?"

[tim-drake.livejournal.com]

"More or less," Tim said with a nod. It didn't surprise him that Bart knew. He'd gotten used to it by now.

[impulsivekid.livejournal.com]

"Good, I've missed him."

Bart glances at the door.

"You're ahead of me now."

[tim-drake.livejournal.com]

"I am?" Tim sounded surprised, and he blinked a few times at the other boy.

[impulsivekid.livejournal.com]

Bart nods.

"Last time I was on Earth, it was four days after we beat Luthor and the Brainiacs."

[mini-supes.livejournal.com]

Kon grins slightly at the appearance of Bart. He hasn't seen him in a month, so, yaknow, he missed him. "-Bart-."

[impulsivekid.livejournal.com]

Kon gets a hug too.

"Hey! hows life in the real world?"

[mini-supes.livejournal.com]

Kon hugs him back. "Real world?" He laughs slightly, an odd laugh. "Wouldn't know yet. Guess I'm about to find out."

[impulsivekid.livejournal.com]

Bart kicks the dirt.

"I haven't been out of bar for a month"

[mini-supes.livejournal.com]

Kon frowns slightly at that. "We haven't been in for a month. Maybe it's connected?" Stranger things have happened, anyway.

[impulsivekid.livejournal.com]

Bart stares at Kon.

"You're ahead of me."

[mini-supes.livejournal.com]

Kon -blinks-. "What? Are you sure?"

Man, that's never happened. Ever.
