[EXT. Rooftop in Gotham, 12:20 AM; February 7th]

"Bring out your dead!"

"I'm here, I'm here."

"Hi."

"Hey."

"Since when do you hug me so much?"

"Since I figured out you're a nice hug victim."

"Is that a compliment?"

"Sure, why not."

"Uh-huh."

"Do you want to play something?"

"What?"

"I don't know. Twenty questions?"

"Hate it ever since playing it with Batgirl. She doesn't have a filter."

"Umm... Two truths, one lie?"

"It's the same thing."

"No, no. You choose what you want to say instead of me getting too nosy."

"Okay, fine. Do you want to start?"

"Sure. So, I have an older sister, I'm allergic to peanuts and my favorite movie is Police Academy 4."

"Peanuts?"

"Wrong. I'm an only child."

"Wow, I wish I could say the same. My turn. I ate a candy cane before coming here, I don't drink coffee and Black Bat is my favorite Bat."

"Uh, coffee?"

"True. How did you guess?"

"I don't think a person can be this full of energy without caffeine."

"You should see Hood. He doesn't drink coffee, yet he always has the energy to get on my nerves."

"Maybe he sleeps more?"

"More than me? Yeah, that's very likely. Enough? Not even close."

"Okay. My turn. I'm freezing my ass off, I haven't brushed my hair since nine in the morning and I did my homework for tomorrow."

"You never do your homework. Do you want to go inside?"

"No, it's fine."

"Come on, Ree, I don't want you to get sick."

"Okay, fine."

"I've got patrol to finish, anyway. This was fun, though short. We'll continue one day."

"Wait, just, do one more? So we're even."

"Okay, that's fair. I think you're cute, this uniform is comfortable and I just found leftover candy cane stuck between my teeth."

"You think I'm cute?"

"'course I do."

"..."

"Did you just kiss me?"

"... you taste like peppermint."

"That would be the candy cane."

"Um, sorry."

"I should - uh - probably go. Yeah, I'm going. Goodnight, Ree."

"'Night."
