Back at the Batcave, Tim and Bruce go outside and shoot some hoops themselves. Tim still wishes Dick were around. He misses having another boy to play with. He likes playing with Bruce, but to him, it's not quite the same. The two continue to shoot for hours before going inside and collapsing asleep on the couch.
Meanwhile, Dick has since moved to the cafeteria but only to get some coffee. While he's there, he's approached by another student, Rogue.
"I know what it's like to lose someone you are close to," says Rogue to Dick, "I killed my boyfriend just by kissing him because not only can my power drain other mutant abilities but also the human life force itself. That's why I never get close to anyone. That's why I never touch anyone and always wear gloves."
"I'm glad someone understands," says Dick. "It's nice to know someone knows what it's like to go through what I'm going through."
"Yeah, I guess it is," chuckles Rogue as she tucks her hair behind her ear. The two continue to talk for hours. Today, both have made a new friend in each other. They couldn't ask for anything better than that.
