KF did tell me that you're kind of the tech guy. Once we find out where they've been mass produced... between the three of us, finding out who bought them should be a piece of cake. The factory's state-side, but the guys in charge might not be. That'll be the tricky part, unless you're one of the guys who got a passport.
That means jail time and giving up your secret ID, you know. Not that I'm not all for doing what we gotta do, but I think we've got options. I know a couple guys with passports that probably won't mind doing some heavy lifting for us.
[Jaime's been trying to stay mostly professional, but that dissolves in a moment as Robin startles a laugh out of him, high and merry. He looks like he's about to say something, but then just ends up laughing again.]
Sorry, it's just -- you're a lot different from the Robin in my universe.
That too. There's definitely been more than one in my universe, but don't ask me how many.
[Not because it's a secret, per se - just because he doesn't actually know. There are a few pitfalls that come of not being interested at all in superheroes until he had abruptly become one, and a lack of knowledge about the community as a whole is one of them.
Including the number of Robins. Have there been two? Twenty? Nobody knows.]
How'd you know that, anyway? Have you run into much alternate universe stuff yet?
Yeah, but at least I don't have to live with it. It happened back home. And... I'm guessing you've got the guy-who-doesn't-know-you problem going on here, yeah?
Yep. It was just the one time, though - I think it's something that the Justice League has to deal with a lot more. You mean you guys haven't run into it back home yet?
Unless you're in the superhero business, in which case it makes perfect sense.]
Yikes. Sounds like you guys have been busy. So... gorillas? Are you talking about the Ultra Humanite, or is there more than one evil ape running around?

Sorry, Robin, but we probably shouldn't go all Kill Bill on their asses. The way we'll do it will hurt a lot more.

[ He's getting used to it, but it's still strange. Still, he shrugs like it doesn't bother him in the least. ]
What do you think is weirder, when a stranger knows you, or when you're the stranger to someone else?
action
Man, I ran into one alternate universe version of a friend who wound up killing me in that universe. Trust me, the weird never actually stops.
[He actually stops to think about that one, though.]
I wanna say the second one. It sounds like it would suck more, anyway.
action
I dunno, I think the murder-friend thing might be worse. Maybe the worst. Ever.
