[Look who's awake!

Barbara looks rumpled and worn, hair mussed and skin pale. There's a stylised owl on her forehead, wings curving down her cheeks, stopping at the edges of her smile.

Iris is there with her, bedraggled and beaming. Between them, Jonesy hops and mews, clamouring for attention.]

Hey, Barge. [She sounds a bit exasperated, but she woke up with Iris in her arms and purring in her ears; she's incapable, right now, of being overly irritated.]

Fill me in on the past few weeks, would you? [Not that she won't be going through the network with a fine-tooth comb, of course, but individual perspectives are always valuable.]

[That's a complicated question at the moment, but not in a way he wants or needs to talk with her about -- at least, not yet. He shakes his head.] Fine. Dean was out, too -- a lot of people have been -- but he woke up earlier today. Otherwise, uh... zombies, a breach, a few murders... Mostly the usual. [He raises a brow, voice going dry on the last point.]

[bodilesswarrior]

[She knew some of it, thanks to Iris, but she still pinches the bridge of her nose, frustration clear.]

That's the Barge for you. [She sounds almost fond, really. She blames Gotham.] I'm guessing Dean's jumped right in.

[itstopped]

Mm. [He confirms this with a look, but then he grins.] What about you?

[bodilesswarrior]

[A faint, rueful smirk. It's not like she can criticise.]

Iris has given me a rundown.

[itstopped]

Getting back in the cockpit, I meant.

[bodilesswarrior]

[Barbara waves a hand.] Won't take long. [It might have, if she needed more than intent to wheel herself around, but as it is...]

[itstopped]

[He chuckles.] I wouldn't think so. Everything's more or less as you left it...
