Okay. Schoolwork done. Feeling pretty good. She had to keep this going. Talk to somebody. She couldn't seem to get anybody on the phone...

So Barbie tried calling the Wayne's house phone. Maria might be there.

	Great, the phone. And nobody was picking it up. Sighing he vaults over the stair banister to get to the phone on the downstairs side table. "Wayne Manor." Really that was all that needed to be said. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Who was this guy? "Hi. This is Barbara Queen. Is Maria there?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He really never recognizes the voice of anyone who calls so this randome female doesn't get a blink of surprise at all. "Not right now. Want to leave a message or is it something I can help you with?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, if you could just tell her Barbie had some important business to discuss, that would be great. Um... who is this, anyway?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ah yes, a Queen. He really needs to read up on their files, he just hasn't had the chance yet. No doubt one of Maria's old heroing friends. "Will do. Barbara Queen with important business to discuss it is. I'm Thomas Kyle." Perhaps he should give a little more information. "I'm a relative of hers." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	barbiebird 2012-02-10 07:26 am UTC (link)
	"Oh..." Well, with families like theirs, there was always another relative turning up under a leaf or rock. "Well, very nice to meet you, Thomas. Any idea when she'll be available? I don't mean to pester." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Nice to meet you too," he says with a smile in his voice. It was kind of fun knowing the person on the phone was in the same business but she wasn't sure if he was. "No, it's not pestering. She usually comes back for dinner and I'm quite sure she hasn't mentioned any plans that'd interfere."

Okay now he couldn't help it, this was amusing. "Do you have one of her personal numbers?" He's just curious to see how she'll take that. Plus he didn't actually know if this Queen had a line to their night activities.

	"I left a message on her regular cell. I didn't want to ..um... keep pressing, in case-- " She sneezed. She was annoyed at interrupting herself, but on the otherhand... how exactly was it polite to finish that sentence? He'd acknowledge knowing that she had multiple personal communication lines... "Excuse me. In case she was ...busy." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Bless you." Although part of him wonders if the sneeze was on purpose, just a daily dose of paranoia. "Well she spreads herself pretty thin, it's understandable. I'll tell her to call you once she comes in. But she'll probably get your message by then." He really shouldn't be amused like this but it'd been a dull day, and she was probably trying to figure out who he was now.

	Next, Barbie called Dinah. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Don't need one quite yet. I'm feeling a lot better." Another sneeze. "Damn it. Excuse me. So I was wondering what the word on the street was. The Titans up to much?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Because Barbie loves Dinah, and by extension Riley, she does not say 'how would anyone tell?' "Keeping up with school, trying to stay in shape." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
