[DUN DUN DUUUUUN! A masked vigilante appears on the screen. She has some very blonde hair and-- are those bat ears? She's also talking a mile a minute.]

Okay, so.... okay. We're obviously on a ship. In... space? With assigned numbers and communication devices. This would be a lot cooler if I knew the why and the how and the potential dangers. Mostly the why. Anybody get a 'why' yet? Not expecting something for nothing here, so...

Hey! I'm Batgirl. Would anyone mind giving me a tour?

Bat... what?

[pertinacious]

Batgirl. Crime fighter extraordinaire? Gotham's sweetheart? Okay, I made that last one up, but it could totally catch on.

Nice mask.

Are you on drugs or something? Not judging, but there's kind of no such thing as a Batgirl.

[totallyhisniece]

I live in Gotham, and there's no such thing as a Batgirl.

[Seriously what is even going on right now.]

[unfiltrating]

It is not a thing! There's Batman and Robin but there's no... girls!

Not cuz of anything personal, it's just kinda consequential that it's strictly dudes. But still.

Arrowlocked 100%? Is that a thing?

[totallyhisniece]

I can't even. There's no such thing, right?

video

[pertinacious]

Wow? Really? Because I live in Gotham, too. And I am Batgirl! What a coincidence.

[Ouch. Her ego. How has she never even been heard of? Even the reporters that have no idea what's going on usually give her a 'THANKS, BATLADY!']

batlocked is already a perfect thing don't ruin it

[unfiltrating]

No! It's just me and him!

She's probably just a big fan or something. But I don't know why she's introducing herself as that instead of her ACTUAL name.

[pertinacious]

What? no.

There's Batman, Robin, Nightwing, Batgirl, Batwoman, Huntress, Red Robin, sometimes Catwoman, and a crapload more! Plus all of the Justice League, and-- do you not own a TV or leave your house or every go outside ever?

[totallyhisniece]

Well. You've got the outfit but those aren't hard. [She made hers herself after all.] Do you have proof or anything?

[unfiltrating]

Maybe they just aren't into the caped crusader thing in space, kiddo.

Arrowpunch to your FACE

[totallyhisniece]

Hey, not everyone can be so awesome they don't need to name themselves after someone.

[pertinacious]

Oh, yeah, sure. Let my just pull out my offical Batfam ID card and the keys to the Batcave.

[That's sarcasm, Artemis. In case you missed it.]

I've got a half-empty utility belt and these. [She holds up a Batarang]

arrowjust cuz you're jealous doesn't mean arrowlock can happen STOP TRYING TO MAKE ARROWLOCK HAPPEN

[unfiltrating]

You all right over there? Your head fitting through doors okay?

[pertinacious]

........................................... no. no it's not.

Where are YOU getting YOUR info from, mysteryperson!? How do I know YOU aren't the fan that just totally wrote himself into some role and is ignoring all other VERY IMPORTANT members of team WE.R.thnght?

Re: video

[totallyhisniece]

[Artemis is well versed in the art of sarcasm, thank you. And there's a minute of Artemis kind of tilting her communicator to the side and peering at the Batarang before she just gives up.]

Well... they look like the real thing...

[pertinacious]

[ WOW DID YOU JUST MAKE UP LIKE AN R&B BAND NAME FOR THEM OR SOMETHING THAT IS IT ]

[ LOOK, SEE, ROBINING ]

[ ROBIN ]

I think I know! Look, be as excited as you want. It's fun. But you shouldn't be introducing yourself like that, especially in a new and potentially dangerous situation!

OH IT'S A THING NOW ARROWLOCK 1000000%

[totallyhisniece]

Hey, don't get all pissy at me just because there's another Bat in the Batfamily.
