[That hesitation tells him he's probably not going to like this. He makes sure to keep the wariness out of his voice, to encourage Dick to keep talking and in case he's assuming things.]
Not currently. Why?
[He is but if Dick needs help that doesn't matter.]
[That's Dick's I'm-in-trouble-but-I'm-totally-fine-don't-worry-about-me-are-you-okay? voice. Damn it Dick, you never changed.
He changes the direction he's going and jumps through an open window of a second story building, boots squelching against the ground when he lands. He doesn't want to risk missing anything due to how loud the rain is. This place will do for now.]
Robin. Where are you?
[His tone demands an answer, and it's one that won't accept anything but the truth.]
Nothing gets past you, huh? [ He huffs out a tiny breath. He's not helping right now, calling Tim just to scare him. ]
I got stuck in a building. The water's wearing the ground floor down. There's a girl too or I'd just... [ Well, he'd take the risk and jump, but he doesn't want to say that out loud. ]
[There's a sequence of crackling, and then silence.]
Damn it.
[It doesn't matter how many times he calls back or shakes the device, their communication is cut. Normally he'd mess with it to see if he could reconnect or pinpoint Dick's location, but the consequences of doing so aren't worth it. He's going to have to do this the old fashioned way.
He puts the communicator away and leaps back into the rain, intending to tear Haven apart to find Dick.]

Date: 2014-11-10 04:46 am (UTC)You didn't answer the question. Give me a status report.
[Dick should know exactly what that means.
It's making him really antsy staying put, but he needs to be able to hear.]

Date: 2014-11-13 05:43 am (UTC)Which building? Are you both okay? I need more specifics and don't leave anything out this time.
[That isn't a proper status report, Dick. Stop being a pain.]
Stay put, I'm coming.
[His tone leaves no room for argument.]
