Steph always was a little on the careless side, and it's a lot harder to dodge cameras now than it used to be. And shots of Tim were matched up to that pervert who took theatrical school kids, dressed them up as Robins, and killed them. The first shot of Tim (there are a couple) was explained away as being the first male hooker he'd asked to dress as Robin.

And there are only about two paragraphs explaining how between his time as Speedy and as Arsenal, Red Arrow was in Robin's costume. Helena won that little competition by fitting ten double entendres into two lines without disrupting the passage.

Mm, yeah, I know. Someone got a shot of me after... well, after. No, not Tim as Robin pictures... TIM'S pictures, the ones he took of me and Dick.

...I'm applying for the library card now.

Dick got me ID! I exist. Kinda weird.

Oh, you mean other real ones. In that case, I've actually published quite a lot of them on the internet. Almost all showing clear evidence at different levels of being photoshopped - with one of my aliases deliberately improving after each analysis came back that the picture was a fake. With so many known fakes of different standards, new ones are assumed to be fake. I've even slipped a couple of real ones in there that are thought to be fake. There's even a newsgroup for them - news://alt.binaries.pictures.batman - and they even made me its moderator.

And there's also my set of Bruce and Dick*. And Hugo Strange's one we had to replace.

* Confusing continuities - Golden age Babs discovered for herself as I describe, in the Silver Age it wasn't a big secret, in the Modern Age, Ostrander believed she never knew, but Batman showed her himself in Batgirl Year One.

...you are devious. And smart. Fuck, woman. You've missed your calling.

Oh? What do you think my calling is?

No fricken' clue.

...maybe it does. Information broker. But I dunno. There's so much you could do.

I think the combination of spymaster, information broker, and hacker fits me as well as anything I could do in this stupid chair. Except possibly politics?

OOC: Questions about calling make Oracle-mun twitch even if Oracle-muse is happy with hers.

Politics, no, girl, not for you. You're too good for that, to my mind at lease. And I think it suits you fine, but maybe write some more or something.

Dunno. Just sometimes it seems the Night gets too many bright, smart people and doesn't let 'em see day.

OOC- oh? why?

If no one good does it, how are we ever going to improve the stock of politicians?

OOC: Because I'm still not sure what I should be doing. I'm much closer than I was six months ago, and that was a massive improvement over eighteen months ago (hell, just about anything except arms dealer would have been an improvement over that pointless year). But still not nearly there. And I've got a housemate (and ex) with a clear vocation who's following it.

You really don' want my answer to that little probem.

OOC- Oh. Agh.

Probably not. And best case eventual scenario probably ends up with someone like Bats running things. I think I'll take the politicians.
