"Okay everyone, we can call each other by our civilian names," Black Lightning says.
"Thank God," Connor says.
"Okay, who thought of it?" Dick repeats the question he asked before they were interrupted by the call from Belle Rev.
"Thought of what?" Will asks.
"I can make one call and you will have one mad wife," Artemis says taking her phone out.
"Fine, it was me," Will says.
"I'll be right back," Dick says leaving the room.
"Is Dick okay?" Tim walks up to the group.
"Will pissed him off, do you and Connor mind going to check on him, not sure which way he is going to let his anger out," Artemis says.
"Sure, come on Connor," Tim says.
The two boys walk out of the room.
"Damn it Will, we weren't ready to tell anyone, the only reason we told you guys this morning is because my mom basically forced it, and the only reason Megan and Connor know is because they are our best friends," Artemis tries to keep her voice down.
Tim and Connor walk into the gym where Dick is using the punching bag.
"Did Artemis send you?"
"She sent both of us, she wasn't sure which anger you have right now," Tim says.
"You don't have to use the card if that's what she is worried about," Dick stops hitting the punching bag.
"You seem more confused than angry, do you want to talk about it?" Connor asks.
"I don't think it would be something you'd understand, just because you were a CADMUS project," Dick says.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Connor's anger starts to show.
"He didn't mean it in a bad way, it's just that you didn't have a life before becoming a hero, Dick did," Tim explains.
"Oh, so this really isn't something I would understand," Connor says calming down.
"No, sorry Connor, but can you tell Artemis I will be out soon, I just need to talk to Tim about something," Dick says.
"Yeah, no problem," Connor says walking out.
"So, what's going on?" Tim asks.
"I want to ask you something," Dick starts.
"Okay," Tim becomes curious.
"Did my routine make an impact on you?"
"Well, I did take up gymnastics and martial arts because of you, but I never intended to become Robin until the incident," Tim says.
"So, no?"
"Dick what's going on?"
"I'm thinking of hanging up the leotard," Dick says.
"What? Why?"
"Even though it's only once a year I have been struggling to get on the platform, mentally that is," Dick clarifies.
"Maybe you should talk to Dinah about this," Tim suggests.
"You're right," Dick agrees.
"Come on, Artemis is probably worried about you," Tim says as they walk out of the room.
