Oh, and more on Helena, maybe part of her feelings is that she's naturally protective of kids but she keeps reminding herself that Barbara isn't actually a teenager so it's like a weird tug of war in her head between "I need to keep this young person safe because I was abused" and "Barbara is an adult and I need to treat her like one and keep her focused."

The mission that it starts with is just getting evidence for a criminal terrorist deal.

Inserting the drive, Dinah was witness to a whole collection of transactions and black market traders. Selling to Rhelasian terrorists, and a rebel faction. Even to… Count Vertigo? That guy was still around? Huh, that’s surprising.

“Oh, this guy’s been naughty. Oracle, you’re getting this?”

“Yeah, uploading his transaction details now, I can send that to the officials. Alright, everything’s on the drive, feel free to take it out.”

The undercover one, is that what you mean?

Would they get the mission later?

Maybe some Hel and Dinah banter, switch to Barbara cleaning herself up before bed, and then have her reflect on her current situation. (Cass is in Bludhaven with Dick.)

And after they copy incriminating evidence over to Babs, it skips over to Helena and Dinah in the way home. Dinah checks in with Barbara, who says she’s in the middle of something and that the two of them can take the night off.

I have this idea that it starts with Dinah crawling into an office for a mission with Barbara in her ear. Basically, start with the Birds of Prey finishing a mission.

Logically speaking, Dinah Laurel Lance had a lot to be thankful for in her life. A kickass hero career, a nice day job as a florist, a lovely family, multiple sidekick heroes who think she’s cool, and not to be too conceited, some good looks to boot.

But, emotionally? As she was currently crawling through a ventilation system, she once again wondered why she’d refused to hit the ever alluring snooze button on her alarm.

She pressed her ear radio as she stepped out into the uncramped office.

“Remind me again what I’m doing here?”

How would it start exactly?

Yeah, it was fun. Always nice writing with you. Plus, you know. Babying Circe is a rather rare novelty.

So… no pressure. Do you want me to set up the Barbara and birds rp?
