batfam meeting minutes: the one where jayne tries to explain herself
sits backward on chair in the middle of the batcave, spinning slightly and munching on a bag of chips that definitely came from Alfred's "emergency snack" cabinet
Damian: Todd, explain your presence immediately. You're getting crumbs everywhere.
Dick: I think what Damian means is, we're all a little curious about your... situation.
Bruce: brooding silence
Me, with my mouth full: My what now?
Tim, not looking up from his laptop: Your existence. How you're... you know... Jayne instead of Jason. The whole revival thing.
Jason, leaning against a wall with arms crossed: Yeah, I'd like to know that too, considering I'm standing right here. This some kind of multiverse bullshit?
dramatically throws hands up, sending chips flying everywhere
Oh THAT! Yeah, I have absolutely no idea. One minute I was, you know, SUPER dead. Like, crowbar-to-the-face, explosion, the whole shebang. Next thing I know I'm waking up in a Lazarus Pit, except I've got... gestures vaguely at entire body all THIS going on.
And then some League of Assassins guy goes "Welcome back to the land of the living, Jayne Todd" and I was like "Sure, whatever" because arguing seemed like a lot of work when my brain was still basically green pit soup.
So now I'm Jayne! Ta-da!
jazz hands
Bruce: deeper brooding silence
Barbara, wheeling in with coffee: So you just... accepted it?
Alfred, appearing with a tray of sandwiches: I believe what Master Bruce is failing to articulate is concern about having two versions of the same person in one timeline.
Duke, grabbing a sandwich: I'm still new here, but even I know this isn't the weirdest thing to happen to this family.
I mean, I was busy having a Lazarus Pit rage episode and planning my dramatic revenge return to Gotham. The gender thing seemed like a minor detail at the time. Plus, turns out having a completely different body is actually super convenient when you're trying to hide from your former mentor who thinks you're still six feet under.
Steph, appearing suddenly: That's the most on-brand thing I've ever heard.
Cass: nods approvingly
Harper, fiddling with some tech: So we've got two Todds now? Double the attitude, double the fun.
Kate, checking her weapons: As long as you both remember who the superior redhead in this family is.
Jason: There can't be two of me. This doesn't make any sense.
shrugs and steals Tim's coffee
Look, I don't ask questions about my weird resurrection situation, and in return, the universe doesn't send me back to being dead. Seems like a fair trade. Now who wants to help me test out the new grappling hooks I "borrowed" from the GCPD evidence locker?
Jason: makes eye contact with me ...I'll bring the ammo.
