Who: Tim Drake and YOU
Where: The Labs
When: the event
Rating: PG
Summary: Tim is having fun exploring. And trying not to let on that he's having so much fun.
The Story:

It's not that Tim isn't aware that this is a Serious Situation for some people, but the problem is that he hasn't had this much fun in ages. There are puzzles to be solved, and spooky labs to be explored, and even if he weren't Robin in another life, this would be fantastic. He's just trying to keep his glee to himself while he explores. And works on puzzles. And explores some more.

[Tim can be found all over the labs, solving puzzles and looking for clues. He's trying not to let on that he's enjoying himself so much, but. He kind of is.]

The whole apocalypse stopping thing. Brought out the best in a lot of people. [He gives a half smile.] There's this girl I know, Wendy? She was here, but she's gone now. [That happens so often. He doesn't know if it gets easier or harder as time goes on.] Anyway, she'd give Beewoman a run for her money. [A beat. What was it in Wirt's world?] ...or Batman. But no costume or superpowers. Just an axe.

[Batman... Beewoman. Tim is just barely managing not to start laughing. But he has to agree that anyone who stops an apocalypse qualifies as superhero material.]

That sounds pretty awesome. Totally Justice League material.

[Dipper doesn't really know the Justice League, but it's not hard to guess.] It was a pretty epic battle all around. We turned my great uncle's Mystery Shack into a giant robot.

[Tim's jaw actually drops open a little. He has never heard of anything like that happening in his world, outside of fiction.]

That is seriously cool.

It really was. [Dipper's entire summer was amazing. And a little terrifying, and highly nightmare-inducing, but mostly? Amazing.]

And we won, in the end.

[The giant robot wasn't what did it, but still.]

[mrsarcastic003]

That's kind of the point when the apocalypse comes--beating it. And I don't think just anyone can handle something like that, so your whole apocalypse-stopping team sounds pretty amazing in my book.

[Dipper beams, trying and failing to not look totally pleased by the praise.]

Thanks, man. We were pretty amazing.
