Rooftop Meeting

The spotlight goes out as an exploding batarang shatters the glass and then explodes.

"I hear those things are kind of expensive," Dick says, amused.

"You don't need a searchlight to contact me," Robin says. "There's this great new invention called the phone. I can give you my number."

"You weren't exactly dropping by to see me, and I'm supposed to give you the 'stay out of our way' speech."

"Heard it before, and I already know all the things not to do."

"Do you see me giving the speech? I know Batman wouldn't let you out of Gotham if you didn't." Dick turns to go and hears Robin reach the edge of the roof as he puts his hand on the door handle. "And kid? Don't stay out too late, you have class tomorrow morning."
