ok.

yeah she said they were too big.

[dawn_is_breaking]

I will tell you about it, there's just a lot of factors that went into our breakup so I'd rather do it in person.

She didn't even say thank you? Tsk tsk!

[theotherobin]

it's cool, Dawn. you don't have to explain.

i think i liked her a lot more than she liked me. i was too icky for her.

[dawn_is_breaking]

You asked so I'd like to explain, I'd just rather do it in person.

How old were you?

[theotherobin]

if you want to.

like seven or eight, i think. she wasn't at the whole 'black eyes are sexy' point in her life yet, i guess.

[dawn_is_breaking]

Okay.

....black eyes?

[theotherobin]

sorry i didn't mean for that to be weird.

yeah, isn't it supposed to be a thing that women find scars and bruises sexy?

[dawn_is_breaking]

It's not weird, just complicated. I don't mind that you asked me.

Supposedly yes, I'm just a little upset that someone was giving you black eyes at age seven.

[theotherobin]

ok. i get it.

hey, you know me. came outta the womb with my fists up. i managed.

[dawn_is_breaking]

Do you have any other questions I can answer in the meantime?

I'm sure that you did, but it's still shitty and makes me want to go kick the teeth in of whoever did that to you.

[theotherobin]

not really sure. what kinda questions do people usually ask each other?

i mean, the original asshole's dead, but i'm sure you could find some of the others that kept it up along the way. not really worth it, though.

[dawn_is_breaking]

All sorts of things, but I'm not really interested in what other people would ask. I want to know what you're curious about and if you can't think of anything then that's fine too.

I suppose not.

So how's the vagina dinner going?

[theotherobin]

who were you with before Dick?

there are plenty of other assholes to take your anger out on.

it's pretty much finished. it doesn't take much.

[dawn_is_breaking]

Before Dick I had slept with Hank once and before either of them I was with a girl in the same ballet company as me.

That's very true.

Damn, I just realized that I should have said 'how's the vagina dinner coming'. That would have been a better joke.

[theotherobin]

so wait. you slept with Hank and then you were with Dick? while Hank was still around both of you?

at least you agree.

yeah and i defintely should've said 'i banged it out real quick'

[dawn_is_breaking]

Yes but it wasn't like this all happened at rapid fire. I met Hank when my mother died and after we got to know one another we slept together once. I wasn't ready for that kind of intimacy so I called it off and instead we just started working together and became Hawk and Dove. Eventually we met Dick through vigilante work and Dick and I fell in love.

You wouldn't think that I would?

Oooh. You should have. XD

[theotherobin]

you and Dick were in love?

i've had a lot of people gimme shit.

next time we'll do better.

[dawn_is_breaking]

Yes, we were.

Like who?

Absolutely, the next time you make a vagina dinner we'll make sure we get in as many innuendos as possible.

[theotherobin]

oh. i didn't know that.

oh you know, like half of Gotham's social services, the GCPD, Dick, sometimes Donna.

i'm definitely gonna be making it more often now.

[dawn_is_breaking]

Does knowing that upset you?

I don't know why Dick and Donna would give you shit about it, there's absolutely an emotional release that comes with what we do. It's one of the reasons I started being Dove, it was a way for me to deal with the pain, anger and loss I was going through.

I'm sure it's going to be delicious. ;)

[theotherobin]

i don't wanna be an asshole.

yeah, well. that's not how they see it, I guess. or maybe they do but they're hypocrites.

better than the real thing? ;)

[dawn_is_breaking]

You're not an asshole for having feelings about something, talk to me about what you're feeling and thinking.

I think it's important to recognize that so that you can be aware and not make mistakes because of it.

Hahahaa! I can't say, I haven't tasted your dinner yet. ;)

[theotherobin]

i dunno if that's such a great idea.

what do you mean?

oh damn, now you're talking. i love a good challenge.

[dawn_is_breaking]

Please?

If you know that you're going into a fight angry then you can be aware if you're starting to go too far or use unnecessary force.

You are so cute. 💕

[theotherobin]

fine.
i didn't know you were in love with him. or him with you. that's pretty big and. it's Dick, you know? i just feel like i'm always in his shadow somehow. it's a lot to live up to, especially when it comes to love. i know, that's stupid and so fucking insecure of me. and i fucking hate admitting that.

no such thing.

you're cuter.
