Out of the Loop (Open to Petra and anyone who wants to answer Din's email)
A month after he should have been, Dinadan Palmer is finally back in Ivy Town. Just far less mobile than usual. Even failed assassination-attempts can take a lot out of a guy, and this one had been a lot closer to 'successful' than anyone would have liked. But it didn't succeed, the assassin and conspirators had been caught and put away; and as far as Dinadan knows, no one up here knew that his current state wasn't caused by a really bad training accident. All's well.

...Well no, not so much according to the news articles he's reading on his laptop between sips of tea and soup. Everything looks like it's heading south at a pretty good clip, and this time he doesn't have a mysterious instruction manual to deal with it. At least he finally knows why his father and Dr. Choi have been so busy lately.

He fires off a quick email to the YJLA and the Teen Titans to let them know that he's back in town and willing to do whatever he can to help while confined to his bed, and sets his empty dishes off to the side. Then, with one eye on his email, he starts working on making the mountain of make-up work he has for school a little bit smaller.

	"Yeah, I figured you'd approve." She smiles to herself. "You take it easy, get some beauty rest, and I'll swing by soon for some quality time. Sound good?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Just give me enough warning to shower first. I'm kind of stinky," Dinadan admits sheepishly. "I look forward to seeing you again. I've missed you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No problem babe. I'll hit you up sometime in the afternoon, with advance notice." She makes a smooching sound against the receiver. "You be good." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Dinadan blushes, glances around briefly (even though he knows he's the only one in the room) and then makes a smoochy noise back. Hey, she has not only decided not to kill him for not calling sooner, but she's made date-plans, that is well deserving of embarrassing smoochy noises. Just not where someone from the Lighter Than Air club can hear and mock him forever.

"You be good too," he says. "Or, uh, bad. Or whatever makes you happiest, I dunno." Augh, why does he fail so hard at flirting?!

	She lowers her voice. "When I see you tomorrow you can tell me if I'm bad enough." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh yes does he fail at flirting. He's pretty sure he's blushing so hard that his ears will fall off. "See you tomorrow," he squeaks into the phone. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"See you." She smiles and hangs up. (end scene) (Reply to this)(Parent)
