[An annoyed boy of 10 sits in front of his computer. He has messy black hair partially covered by a hood over his head, and is wearing a domino mask that covers his eyes. He has perfect posture, which enables the camera to catch the upper portion of his Robin costume, complete with its signature “R.”]

All right, Batman, this isn’t funny. You and I both know that the Joker is too dangerous to let live, but I knew you would be against my plan, which is why I waited for you to be away. I was trying to protect you from liability. I had no idea that you would go this far to protect him. Where did you send me? Did you enlist Zatanna to bring me here? Or perhaps Raven? Either way, I demand that you end this foolishness and bring me back right now. This is too much, even for you.

[Damian crosses his arms and his eyes narrow.]

I learned my lesson, Batman, and I demand you bring me back.

[He holds out the crowbar covered in blood to the camera.]

I'll even let you have the crowbar back. Happy?

[Not unless Tim wants to torture him. There are after all enough pictures of Dick in the disco suit. But yeah, probably not happening anyway.] I'm not attempting anything, much less to imitate Bruce. I just like to point out that knowing a. the history of Robins and b. that the people on this island are from different points in time, it's not that much of a leap to figure out Dick's identity.

And it's this sort of attitude that will get you killed, if you don't lose it.

[I don't think Damian should ever see Dick in the disco suit. Dick's made so much progress with him already, do we want to ruin it?] I would have figured it out eventually if you and Todd hadn't jumped in!

That would make you happy, wouldn't it? One less "supervillain" for your hit list.

[No. But it would be interesting to see his reaction to it anyway.] And totally alienated Dick in progress. Really, good job.

No it wouldn't, because I actually value all life. Death is nothing to be happy about. Not that of my enemies. Not yours.

Have actually looked on that list beside your picture? Unlike what you seem to think, I don't actually plan to attack any of those on it. And I'll be more than glad if I never have to.

[Very true.]I didn't know! ...I wasn't trying to alienate Dick.

Like you would mourn for me if I died. Not that I plan on dying.

I noticed your friends and Dick weren't on it.

And yet you might have anyway. Do you ever think before you open your mouth?

Probably not much. But don't pretend that that feeling isn't mutual.

I happen to be friends with Kara. And that the Red Tornado was my part-time mentor some years ago. Never mind that it isn't complete anyway. [Though neither Dick or Kon (or Bart or Cassie) would ever land on it. But there is no way in hell he is ever going to tell Damian that.]

I DIDN'T MEAN TO ALIENATE DICK! [is bothered by this.] What do you want me to do?!

I would attend your funeral. And surprisingly, I'm not wishing for your death, either. You found a way to bring father back. That counts for something.

Mmhmm, sure.

Go to him. Apologize and mean it for once. And don't pull your Robin-is-my-birthright-routine, because despite what you think, it isn't.

He's in BC4, right? That's what Todd said.

[Notice how he's not bickering or being "holier than thou".]

He is.

[Noticed and it's pleasantly surprising. Let's see how long it lasts.]

I was planning on going anyway.

[Terminates the voice chat.]
