Ok, I know this chapter is short and it is, again, mostly dialogue. But like I said, that's how it'll be until patrol, probably.

Speaking of patrol, is there anything you guys want to see... er, read before it? I'm kinda running out of ideas...

More trolling by Dick and Babs. The target? Roy. After his temper tantrum, that is.

Enjoy!

Roy glared down at the young bird. "You knew about the Watchtower? You knew. About. The. Watchtower. And you didn't tell us?"

Dick grinned nervously, rubbing the back of his neck. "Yeah, I kinda… uh… helped design it? And set up the security and been monitoring/updating it since I was… 10? With occasional help from Batman?"

"WHAT?!" Yeah, Roy was pissed. Seriously, after all that grief he had given everyone at the Hall of Justice, and Robin hadn't even taken his side..."Wait…" A thought struck the archer. "So then why weren't you pissed when they lied to us? You didn't join me, or even really seem annoyed."

"They didn't lie." Robin pointed out. "Yeah, the Tower is the main base, but the Hall of Justice is important too. It's our public front, people think that's our HQ so they don't suspect anything about the Watchtower. And I guarantee you that our 'induction' was leaked to the public, so it would have seemed weird if we didn't show up there that day. I mean, did you notice all the tourists? And I pretended to not know so you guys wouldn't get upset."

"Aren't tourists always there?"

"Not that many, and normally they're inside, you know, where all the excitement is? Looking at exhibits and such? Not lined up outside."

"Huh." Roy blinked. "I didn't think of that."

"No duh."

"Shut up, shrimp."

"Roy, be nice." Jade chided him. "Hey, Birdie."

"Hey Jade. How's life?"

"How do you think? I've been taking care of this idiot and trying to get out of The Life."

"Ah. How's that working out?"

"Trying to find a job is not fun."

"Hmm… I can probably talk to Bruce about that."

"Thanks, squirt." She ruffled his hair while he squawked indignantly. "WHY is everyone going for the hair?"

"Ok, not to interrupt," Artemis, well, interrupted, "But why is Jade here?"

"I was wondering that myself." Selina agreed. "Not that it's not wonderful to see you, Chesh."

"Roy brought me." Jade informed them. "I already knew about Robin, so why not?"

"Why do you know about Robin?" Conner growled.

"Caus we ambushed her in the park." Everyone turned to look at Barbara. "Hey, Red" Jade smirked.

Artemis gaped at them. "You know each other?"

"Well, yeah." Dick said. "Like she said, the two of us ambushed Jade in the park and threatened her with bodily harm if she hurt Roy in any way, shape, or form. Then we introduced ourselves and hung out a little. She's awesome at playing Ninja."

"Our games can last for hours." Babs smiled.

Artemis could not believe her ears. "Wait, you threatened my sister- and she didn't kill you-, gave up your IDs, and then played Ninja?"

"Well, not really in that order, but yes."

"And she was kind of torn between admiring our daring and contemplating how to kill us."

"Why would she hurt Roy anyway?" Artemis asked, bewildered.

"You didn't know?" Dick asked innocently. "They've been dating for about a year."

"It's pretty serious." Barbara nodded. "He was looking at rings."

Roy glared at them. "Shut up!"

Jade looked at Roy with a smirk. "What's this about rings?"

Roy spluttered, face red.

"I wonder how he's going to get out of this one." Barbara muttered.

"He should really just ask her already." Dick agreed. "We all know it's coming."

"Well," Barbara amended, looking over at Artemis, who was sitting, frozen, eyes wide, shocked speechless. "Not everyone. I think we may have broken her."

"Eh. She'll be fine."

They're such evil, evil trolls :) I love them. Wally wasn't really a troll in this, but I'm not sure if he knows.

I wonder who'd win Ninja, Babs, Dick, or Jade? Probably Dick, although Jade might have a chance...
