Hey, you've reached Dick Grayson. I'm out right now, so leave a message and I'll get back to you.



((IC or OOC both acceptable))

You Are Romanticism

You are likely to see the world as it should be, not as it is. You prefer to celebrate the great things people do... not the horrors they're capable of. For you, there is nothing more inspiring than a great hero. You believe that great art reflects the artist's imagination and true ideals.

...even random memes are calling me an idealist now.

I'm offering song drabbles over here for people who are interested.

1. What is your relationship with food? Are you a picky or hearty eater? Live to eat, or eat to live? Special dietary requirements?

I'll eat pretty much anything. I like things that are flavored strongly, spicy or sweet, even sour, savory, anything. I eat pretty healthily most of the time, but I admit, I love junk food.

( Food is good! )

Do you have anything from your ex in your room, and, if so, what?
Yep. Comes from having a supergenius as an ex. And even if we're not dating, we still work together. And I'm sure I've got things from Kory. Probably other exes too.

Would you ever consider plastic surgery?
Only if something happened to my face.

Are you considering a tattoo?
No. I kind of have this thing against distinguishing marks.

Anybody you're looking forward to seeing soon?
Yes.

Have you ever kissed anyone whose name started with a R?
Frequently.

1. List two facts about your last kiss.
It was with Roy, I had not had my coffee yet.

2. What was your first thought when you looked in the mirror this morning?
Um, probably "Where'd I put the toothpaste?"

3. Do you believe there's always room in your heart for your first love?
Yes.

4. Have you ever worn the opposite sex's underwear?
Yes.

5. Where is the next place you will travel to?
Not sure? I've been doing a lot of traveling between New York and Gotham. Besides that, nowhere's planned.

My username is: shortpantsrobin

I was the Robin that wore shortpants. Technically so was Jason, of course, and even Tim that one time, but I was the first one. And my friends still call me "Shortpants" sometimes. Especially Roy. I guess I should be glad no one's calling me "Disco Collar."

My journal name is: Dick Grayson

...because it's my name.

My title is: The Batjournal

It's a joke that we add bat as a prefix to everything. I'm pretty sure we've got some things that aren't prefixed with Bat. Like zipstrips! So much more useful than Batcuffs. Maybe. Anyway, it's my Batjournal.

My subtitle is: I don't have one. Tried to think of one, but I can't come up with any that I like.

My friends page is called: Titans (and other friends)

Because most of my friends are or have been Titans. But not all of them.

My default userpic is:



It's a decent picture of me, and my face is at least partially obscured.

[Locked to people who know secret IDs]

of course I tell lies. It's impossible to live in my world and not tell lies. The biggest one, of course, is about who I am, and what I know. There are things Dick Grayson doesn't know that Batman does. Not as many things that I know that Batman shouldn't these days, and I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not. I'm Batman more than I'm me right now. I don't really have any close friends I see consistently who aren't heroes. On the one hand, that means less lying. On the other hand, it's sometimes nice to have a friend who isn't part of it all. Someone you can just be normal with, even if the normality is a lie.

I wonder how Clancy's doing.

There are smaller lies too. Ones about how tired I am, or how much pain I'm in. How okay I am. I... try not to do those too much to the people I love. Honesty's important. I know that. I know they'll worry more if I keep it a secret. I've got more than enough problems as it is without making trust one of them. These days I try not to say "I'm fine" when I'm really not. Of course, it doesn't always matter. I can't really afford to take time off to heal when a maniac's threatening the city. I'm not Bruce, I know I need rest and healing and to take care of myself. But when I know I need to be out there regardless of how fine I really am, and I know convincing people of that would just take valuable time-- sometimes it's just faster.

I don't like lying. Especially not to people I love. Doesn't mean I don't do it, of course.

It's just unavoidable sometimes.

You're supposed to trust friends. You have no reason to be his friend? That is part of the pleasure of friendship: trusting without absolute evidence and then being rewarded for that trust. -David Shore

Happiness often sneaks in through a door you didn't know you left open. -John Barrymore

If we were to care about every person suffering on this planet, life would shut down. -David Shore

If you don't risk anything you risk even more. -Erica Jong

When a friend is in trouble, don't annoy him by asking if there is any thing you can do. Think up something appropriate and do it. -Edgar Watson Howe

Lian's fault. She saw me looking at them and insisted I do it. So... here you go.

( Results under the cut. )

Are you cheating on someone right now?
No way. Though I'd like to point out the ridiculousness of putting this on a meme. Who would put yes, even if they were?

If you could get rid of anything in this world, what would it be & why?
Crime. People hurting other people.

Do you hate when couples are like "I love you" after dating for about 2 days?
Depends on the couple. Sometimes people don't start dating until after they're dating. I've told people that before I started dating them, I know.
