Curiosity killed the cat and it drew in a bat.

Maria had been curious about her brother, half-brother, since Bruce had mentioned that she had one. Maria had tried to resist the lure of curiosity, but it had eventually grabbed her enough that she wanted to meet him. She talked to Bruce and he had been nice enough to call Max to set up a meeting and make travel arrangements.

The flight was a commercial flight, first class though, to Star City. Maria had checked into her hotel and then taken a cab to the cafe where the meeting was supposed to take place.

If she had to admit it, she was nervous. She didn't know how Max was going to take meeting new family from another dimension. Though maybe she could take the agreement to meet as a positive sign. It wasn't like she wanted to invade and take over or destroy his relationship with Helena. Maria was still unsure about meeting Helena, but she was curious about Max. At least she would get the chance to meet him. Then she would see where things went from there.

Maria tapped the table with an index finger out of nervousness and waited.

“To be honest I think Bruce likes Mom more than Dad.”

“Reading, a little TV, a few video games, martial arts, going down to the shoot range for target practice, and hanging out with friends. What about you?”

"I haven't had much free time," she admitted. "Been learning as much as possible and Bruce and I talked and I'll be working in some capacity for Wayne Enterprises. Though I did manage to drag Bruce out to dinner once."

“I’m still in college so I haven’t looked too much into work yet,” Max said, “But if there was anything you wanted to do while you are out here let me know.”

"What are you studying? Is/was Helena a teacher here as well?"

She smiled. "Thanks. I can't think of anything, but I'm open to suggestions."

“I’m undeclared right now though I do have a lot of fun with journalism but I haven’t figured out just yet.”

“Yeah she’s still a teacher here. She loves that job.”

“Well what did you like to do for fun before you came here?”

Maria smiled. "It's good to know that some things are the same. Uncle Bruce said my mother loved being a teacher as well."

"Is it sad that my idea of fun was beating up bad guys?"

Max smiled. “I think it gave her something more of a normal life. I’m glad Dad’s good friends with the Mayor of Hub City so that she wouldn’t lose her job when crazy stuff happens.”

“Not really I love mysteries and most people think that’s strange as an idea of fun but I suppose I could try to think of something more conventional for fun.”

“The Triangle could always use some of that. We probably could get there from here without much trouble.” He had come on his motorcycle though he wasn’t sure if she had transport.

Max shrugged. “I did learn how to fight from Mom and Dad and a little bit from their sensei. Besides it wouldn’t be right to let you go there by yourself.”

Max shrugged. “Don’t know pretty easy to figure out though. Even still it is one of those place that it’s better to work with someone if possible than by yourself.”

"I'm nineteen. Born on April 15th," she said with a grin.

"Maybe for my next visit," she said. "I didn't exactly bring any of my working clothes with me."

“I’m nineteen too. Born June 17th,” Max says not needing to state the obvious about who’s older.

“These always the shooting gallery too but I understand.”

“Go overboard with that and I might have to show you what it’s like to have an annoying younger brother,” Max said with a little smirk.

“Talking is fine by me.”

“Not sure I didn’t hear about that from Mom when she told me though she seemed to pretty ok with it when she did tell me. I don’t think she really could take it too badly family is very important to her even if it is a bit of a strange situation.”
