The first thing Robin does when he found out was nothing. Absolutely nothing and just looked at Jericho. Jericho hands fell fo his side. Then rested on his lap. Robin remained shocked. Trying to calculate a former response to answer Jericho back.

Instead he looked at Jericho. Taking in every detail that could possibly reassemble the man. Anything to confirm it. Instead he just had Jericho words and the long knowing answer since before knowing him in person.

There were rumors of course. And the confrontation with Slade's daughter, Rose (it took a lot to believe ), left no ambition that Slade had family elsewhere.

Rose knew she had a brother. She talked about her family and ones she never seen but heard from Slade. Yet once she finally cut connections to him and his legacy. She denied the acceptance of being a Titan. Claiming the offer was just some sort of pity party. She left. Didn't even look back once she stepped out the door.

Robin searched hard. He obsessed over the fact that Slade had a real identity. A real, real one. One with a family instead of just some lonely criminal mastermind. Robin had a chance to finally know more but it slipped from his finger tips as Rose kept shut and left. Of course he kept his cool. He was the leader infact. It did not stop him from asking questions like the others

Robin returned back to the present and looked at Jericho. Did he know about his sister ? Did he know about all the stuff his father really did? Did he know what Slade was up do now? Did Robin really know Jericho?

Robin pinched the middle between his eyebrows and signed. He was beginning to get a headache.

"Cyborg said every rose had their thorns ' he mused

Jericho put his hands up.

Robin put them down.

"Don't think I am holding you against this. But I do wish information..."

Jericho shook his head. Signing quickly.

"Everyone always asks. I'm making this clear Robin. I have been split from my father for years. I am not hiding anything . I don't even know anything other than the tower "

"I know " he lied. Because Robin knew he may be telling the truth but he never trusted anyone to give the honest truth. Working with batman caused him to look deeper into what people say.

Jericho does a little nervous laugh and it brings Robin stomach to do a nervous upside turns and he broungt all his might to not laugh with him. Because this is a serious matter. Yet he let himself smile a bit.

Jericho slid his bangs out his face and stood up. He turned his back and then turnsed back. Then keepers repeating with his hands hands moving up and down as if his mind was processing words that he could not get out.

Robin grabbed is hands. Gripping them. Gripping Jericho's rough scratched hands.

"I need information."

Jericho cheeks go red. Most likely from anger. Jericho usually wasn't angry.

"But not now. I don't know you. You especially don't know me. But I think we can make this work. I can think we can still be friends. It's kinda cheesy. Cheesy isn't my thing. So you know I'm serious."

As always Jericho scoots.

Jericho hands grip Robins tighter. And they let go

Slade had a son. Robin was friends with Slade son. Robin was Jericho friend.

Robin was getting a serous migraine at the moment. This was something he would have to resolve when he gets an Advil or something.


IDK this was just a scene I came up with in my head. I may continue this. Also I'm doing all the writing and editing from NY (that's not a mistake cause that's how I write my) phone. Since I don't own the laptop. I don't like asking but can people review. I want to see what they think.
