They say it's your birthday.

WHO: Tim Drake and OPEN
WHAT: It's Tim's birthday. That doesn't mean he has to acknowledge it.
WHERE: Various Locations through Dualis
WHEN: July 19
WARNINGS: None yet!

Tim hasn't actually forgotten that it's his birthday. It's happened before and he'd been roundly mocked for it, but that's not the case today. It's just that he doesn't want to do anything about it. He gets up early and ducks out so that Cissie can't rope him into a birthday breakfast or something, and decides to spend the day really getting to know the new city he's found himself in.

It's not Gotham--nothing else could be--but there are parts of it that almost seem familiar, and he doesn't think he's going to have a chance to get bored here. People are people, no matter where and when they are, and there's always going to be something for a civically minded vigilante to do when they get together in numbers like these.

He finds the chess players in the park and watches for a while, then plays a few rounds with some strangers. He wanders through neighborhoods, and eventually even makes his way to a beach. Opts not to go swimming.

He knows he can't avoid Cissie and Steph and his birthday forever, but he feels like he's doing a pretty good job right now.

[Feel free to find Tim at any of the locations listed above, or any other place you think he might wander! He'll be eating foods and looking around getting to know the layout of the city, so anything is game! Even potentially rooftops if it's late enough!]

Jason huffs a quiet laugh. "I would expect nothing less from another Robin."

For once, it doesn't hurt as much to acknowledge that he and Tim both held the same title, even if Tim did get to a point of considering both Dick and Bruce his friends, while Jason only had the bitter taste of disinterest left in his mouth from his post-resurrection interactions with them. Jason's always been an outsider, after all, so maybe it shouldn't have been so much of a shock to discover (in his perception) that he'd been unmourned and his death remained unavenged. And with time and distance to mull it all over, he can see that none of that is Tim's fault, so he shouldn't be punished for it simply by association.

"Besides, it sounds like I'm the one who started shit, so I'm sure I deserved it."
