The manor was too quiet. That was the first sign something was wrong.
Then came the screaming from the kitchen.
Jason Todd
IT WAS COOKIES AND CREAM, DICK! COOKIES! AND! CREAM!
Dick Grayson
That was my pint, Jay! I wrote my name on it in permanent marker!
Jason Todd
Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize your name was also Ben & Jerry's. My bad.
Dick Grayson
snatches the empty carton from the counter You ate the entire thing! The entire thing! In one sitting!
Jason Todd
And I'd do it again, you mint chip loving freak!
Before Dick could retort, there was another commotion from the hallway.
???
Stop walking ahead of me.
I'm not walking ahead of you, I'm just walking.
You ruined the sightlines.
I didn't even know you had sightlines, Cass! You didn't say anything!
flatly I shouldn't have to.
Duke Thomas emerged from the corridor, Cassandra Cain two steps behind him, her jaw tight.
Duke Thomas
All I'm saying is, you could've just told me you wanted to take the fire escape route instead of—
Cassandra Cain
Could've told you to look.
Duke Thomas
I'm not supposed to even be out at night, okay? I'm on the day shift for a reason!
Cassandra stopped walking. She stared at Duke with the kind of silence that made the air itself uncomfortable.
From the living room, the muffled blare of a television cut through.
Damian Wayne
shout Turn it down!
Tim Drake
shout back There's five other rooms in this house, Damian! Go read in one of them!
Damian Wayne
This is my reading spot! You know this!
Tim's voice rose over what sounded like an explosion on screen.
Tim Drake
Then go read in your room!
Damian Wayne
slams a book shut You go watch television in the library!
And then, from the kitchen doorway, a new voice. Calm. Deadly calm.
Stephanie Brown
Jason. I want you to take a deep breath before you look at what I'm holding.
Jason Todd
...Why are you holding my mug.
Stephanie Brown
Because I made coffee.
Jason Todd
My Wonder Woman mug.
Stephanie Brown
I wasn't scared, though. Because you're not Damian.
Jason Todd
voice dangerously low Put. It. Down.
Somewhere above, a door slammed.
<Narrator> Then another voice, deep, frayed, echoing through the entire manor EVERYONE. TO THE BATCAVE. NOW.
