When there's trouble, you know what to make:




If you need Robin for anything but there's not a post handy, start a thread here!

Or you're going to be so focused on this one thing, you miss something important because you refuse to believe it.

It's like stage magic. People don't see the trick because they don't want to believe there is a trick, so they get fooled. And you don't want to see anything else but Slade.

Then you can focus on the other things. I'm going to keep letting the evidence lead me to the right place. [and that right place is SLADE.]

You mean keep making it fit into what you want to believe. [Robin could be right. Maybe someone named Slade is playing a part in this. But she thinks he isn't being objective, and there's a pretty obvious reason for it.]

Is he the one who killed your friends?

Action, September 8

[teenwonder]

[WELP. If they weren't fighting before, they certainly are now. It's as though she's reared back and slapped him. He turns away from her completely then, voice dropping to a soft, smoldering whisper.]



Get out.

[Well damn. Robin turns away, and Zatanna knows she's pushed too far. But it makes so much sense if that's the case. If Slade's responsible, then Robin can stop him--and he can make him pay for what he's done.]

Because I get it, you know. What that's like. [Maybe not to lose her friend, but the person who's most important to her? To see the one who took him away standing there in his place? That she understands.

And notably, she isn't leaving.]

Action, September 8

[She's not leaving, and he's not going to force her out. Not yet.

But that doesn't mean he has to stay here listening to it. He casts her a stare over his shoulder and makes a move for the window. Now that he's awake, he might as well survey the village from the rooftops and work on swallowing the bubbling hot emotion she's been raising.]

[Really? Really? AUGH Robin can be so frustrating. But even though Zatanna could stop him--she's really tempted to--she doesn't. It's pretty clear that he's not going to listen to her, so it's probably better that they separate right now.

So after he goes, Zatanna sticks around long enough to put the papers back where she found them before leaving herself.]
