"Yo, Robin! Got a strange reading outside on the lawn. And, uh, seein' somethin' strange out there, too."
Victor Stone, known to most as Cyborg, spoke into the receiver end of his communicator as he stared down from one of the tallest parts of Titan Tower, his mechanical eye shifting as it zoomed in on the figure that had just appeared out of nowhere. Confusion wrinkled the flesh side of his brow as he took in the sight of... a girl? "Looks like a girl."
"A girl?" The voice on the other end of the receiver huffed through hard breathing, a sign that Robin was hard at work in the training room yet again. "You sure it isn't Starfire or Raven?"

Robin did not, in fact, know what he was doing. He honestly wasn't sure if this so-called visitor was what he thought, but that wasn't stopping him from practically running through halls, ignoring the elevators for the convenience of the stairs.
