That's not true, I didn't like who you were becoming back then. But you're not that anymore.
You're something new.
And so am I.

What do you mean by that?

[alaazul]

There's enough of me that's still the same.

You know what I mean, why do you need me to say it?

[dawn_is_breaking]

Those are the parts I'll always love.

Because I need to know what you mean so I don't twist things up in my mind.

[alaazul]

But that wasn't enough, was it?

This isn't just about you and me. We need all of our team. If there are feelings of anger and betrayal, this isn't going to work.

[dawn_is_breaking]

It would have been if you hadn't lied to me.

I understand what you mean but I think that's an excuse, you're getting stuck on the old team which you said wasn't the point of coming back to the tower.

[alaazul]

I do what it takes. That part of me hasn't changed much either.

The point is that I need everyone and I don't want the kids to be involved.

[dawn_is_breaking]

You seem very set on me not liking who you are now, when I do. You're a good teacher and mentor to these kids.
I like seeing that in you.

[alaazul]

That's not what I'm set on. I'm just being realistic.

I have to keep doing what I'm doing now. That's the goal and I need you to understand that.

[dawn_is_breaking]

So you want me to understand that you want me, and I want you, but we can't do anything?

[alaazul]

Yeah.

[dawn_is_breaking]

Come tell me that to my face then.

[alaazul]

I don't think that's a good idea.

[dawn_is_breaking]

Why?

[alaazul]

Because we're both emotionally on edge right now, and I'm trying to be smart about it.

[dawn_is_breaking]

Is that smart or is that being afraid?

[alaazul]

I'm gonna go with smart.
It has nothing to do with being afraid.

[dawn_is_breaking]

I'm not entirely convinced.

[alaazul]

Are you willing to mess up what we're trying to do here with these kids, and the reason I called you all back here?

[dawn_is_breaking]

You didn't call me back, I came on my own because I wanted to see you and Rachel, Gar and Jason.

Also I don't see why it would mess things up.

[alaazul]

And deal with Deathstroke. Did you forget that was a thing?

Maybe that's why it's better if I keep my head about this. Cause you don't see it.

((ooc: Oh oops, I thought we were playing them near the end of season 2? Where Dawn and Hank split and she was doing hero stuff on her own while he was a bike cop.))

[alaazul]

((ooc: i think we said that at first but then because we brought it back to Rachel, Gar and Jason still training we had shifted it back? Cause then wouldn't Jason already be gone and Donna would be dead? haha sorry, i'm confused now too.))

[dawn_is_breaking]

((ooc: crap! You're right! Sorry, my brain is not working today from travel.

Okay so where do you want to take it from?
After Hank leaves Dawn but still before Deathstroke final battle stuff?
Or slight AU after Deathstroke stuff but Donna doesn't die and Jason sticks around?))

[alaazul]

((ooc: i feel like the first one would work better for the progression of things?))

[dawn_is_breaking]

((ooc: okay cool! Sounds good. Sorry for all the confusion 😄))

I didn't forget about Deathstroke, you know I wouldn't.

But I'm also not going to let him ruin all the joy and happiness that this place could have. For the kids and you.
