[Oh, is it December? Robin's spent the post-Thanksgiving weeks holed up in his apartment struggling to piece together the bigger picture. Joker was here. He's spent seventeen Luceti months stuck here without any real progress to show for it. Things are as bad as they were on day one, which is clearly a failing of Robin himself. And lo, he's fallen back into his brooding. With Jason here to wear the Robin suit and scour for petty street crime (that never even happens), Robin only needs to monitor the journals. And plan. There's so much planning. Planning isn't even something that needs to happen in direct sunlight.
It means he hasn't been outdoors since the last time someone dragged him out. Even his usual sessions with Aang and Jason have been set aside in favor of his obsessing. They won't need to learn how to fight better if he can just crack the secret of getting them out. And if the Joker's here, then the Joker's in league with Slade. Or maybe he's not and Slade is just using this pocket dimension as a way to be rid of all his competition at once.
...Which brings him back to the journal. There are just some things that can't be learned without directly interaction with the subject base.]
What was the last thing you did at home before you were brought here?
[It's just an afterthought into the ether. No greetings, no explanations, no introductions. There's no time for that. He's much more concerned with working out filters to throw on the replies as they come in.]

Did you expect anything else? You'd better start picking up the slack, though, it's not even a challenge anymore.
[Well, okay, maybe it is, but shhh. He likes talking big.]
[action]
You think I can't do better? I'm not slipping. I know exactly what it would take to keep you out for good.
[action]
It was a joke. Remember those? [Jeez, talk about wound up.] You know, I kinda get the feeling you've been working a little too hard, Robin.
[action] oh hey excuse to use this icon after the zombie event ended! :D
Did you find the Joker yet? Do you at least have some idea of what he's planning??
[Maybe Jason's not wound tightly enough.]
[action] LMAO but is that a good thing?!
I might tell you if you'd listen to me for once. Remember what you told me before? About how you'd need to be told before you'd rest?
[action] NO IDEA you tell me. :D
[action] ahaha WELL I LOVE IT, SO!
[action] WELL GOOD.
What kind of something? Where has he been?
[And out comes the map of luceti. INFORMATION. YESPLEASE.]
[action]
Well, all over the place. I don't think he knows I've been looking for him, but he's always on the move. See, sometimes, I check the apartments that are supposed to be empty, and they are. Mostly. But there's little things, like burns or stains on the rugs. Like the kinds that chemicals make.
[action]
He's already had more than enough time to create gallong of whatever he's working on. We should start getting people prepared for the worst.
[action]
[action] I love you for not judging me by my early-morning typos. ;_;
I don't know -- don't panic everyone. Just inform the ones who can handle themselves. I can't -- not until I figure out the connection to Slade. I'm almost there...
[action] Will you still love me if I told you I didn't notice 'til just now? 8D;
Sure, piece of cake. We've already got the upper hand if he doesn't know we're here.
[action] Yes because it's not like I noticed them when I was making them :D
He's not crazy, by the way. He's just the only one who understands what's going on here.]
Who says he doesn't? Enough people know about us. The intel's not hard to track down if he's paying attention.
[action] AHAHA AWESOME THEN. 8'D
Yeah, but I think if he did, he'd have tried to do something sooner just to get Batman's attention.
[action] |D
[Even if this should be Batman's problem. It's his dirty laundry that's taken up residence.]
[action]
[He is actually like 98% sure that the Joker doesn't even care they exist, soooo.]
[action]
He'd be in the same place we are. He wouldn't have run this investigation any differently.
[action]
You don't think he would've been a bit more... upfront? [Because he totally does. But then, he shrugs.] I guess it doesn't really matter, though. We're the ones who're stuck dealing with him now.
[action]
If he wanted innocents to die, he would be. [Robin's plan is INFALLIBLE. INFALLIBLE..] But we're still going to stop him.
[action]
Of course we will. I'm already looking forward to it.
[action]
Are you that bored already?
[action]
I just wanna give him a good punch for someone who can't anymore.
[...and also, yes, he's totally bored.]
