It got worse than that. The reason we were trying to fit you in there is because there is a rumour (with more truth behind it than evidence) that Batman and Robin were there when Klarion turned Young Justice into adults and the JLA and JSA all into teenagers. But even conspiracy theorists wouldn't buy a prematurely-aged you as Batman with a straight face.

The main conspiracy theory about you is that you and Mia are the same person. And that one or both of you are actually Olly's daughter. Mostly you're below the radar. Except to the Old Justice Legacy Society. But no one pays them any attention at all.

Oh god, that mess! So not sorry I missed out on that. And how did you even consider that idea with a straight face? I can't even hear it with one! Ha!

...Huh. I don't know about Mia, but... They've got the one right. But Ollie doesn't know.

Below the radar is good. Mom was never good at that. (They're still around?)

[OOC: My Cissie is Ollie's daughter, and she found out a few months ago--Tim told her, and Roy knows, but she hasn't been ready to talk to Ollie yet. And now, with Roy granted guardianship, Cissie thinks it's even stickier. ;)]

Most of the book wasn't considered with a straight face. And I suggested that on a night I'd been trying to drink with Helena and Zinda.

Mia isn't.

No actual members of Old Justice are actually in the OJLS.

[OOC: I (and Babs) knew she was Ollie's daughter (it's pretty much cannon in YJ) - but didn't realise Tim had told her]

::laughs:: That sounds like fun. Trying to drink?

...Okay.

...So who is?

[OOC: Heh, yeah, I will assume she is until canon says otherwise and then I'll think they lie. ;) But yes, the way we played it was that Cissie found out her birth dad was someone other than the dad she remembers and Tim--being unable to let anything go--found out who. But waited to tell her until she was ready to hear it, which took a while. Cissie's mainly waiting to contact Ollie because she doesn't want to be a minor when she does it.]

Helena's an Italian Catholic. And I've seen Zinda try to drink Barda under the table. Didn't quite succeed, but was close enough that Barda needed three tries to make it out the door. By their standards I'm a lightweight.

And the OJLS was ex-heroes that almost no one would have heard of (unlike OJ itself - Merry was one of my heroes when I was young) that were planned for support for OJ eventually. No need to pay any attention to them - half a dozen of them became close friends from that and have dinner with each other once a month. And called themselves the OJLS and put out the occasional press release (that no one ever reprints) because that way they get their dinner paid for by the same people who were using Old Justice and never got round to taking their tiny expense account away.

::laughs:: Gotcha.

Huh. That doesn't quite seem right.
