Zach just blinks, the room seeming to fall silent. The only hint he heard any of what Tim just said is the color falling from his face.
"Oh... I see."
He swallows, then goes to open a beer, fingers fumbling with the bottle-cap slightly. "Well that's nothing serious then, right? Ollie came back, Superman came back, Aquaman, the Hawks do it every few years it seems like... she'll be back... she'll be back before we know it."
He smacks the bottle against the countertop, snapping the cap off harshly, chugging strongly before he turns to look at Tim with wide eyes, wiping his mouth on a sleeve of his suit-jacket.
"Hell... I'm the world's greatest magician... I could just call her spirit up anyway. I could probably even bring her back. There's the sealed section of the library in Shadowcrest I've never bothered with before, after all. This... this is an annoyance. Hardly even worth calling me over for, Drake."
He drinks more and then smiles, although calling it a smile is being generous. 'Horrible rictus' would be more appropriate.
"You could have just left this on my machine..." He laughs, a strangled little noise.
