Thomas Birthday Shenanigans
First birthday away from "home" technically and he was not handling it too well. Really, he just wanted to suit up and take out criminals while brooding in between. Not much to ask for. But after spending the last week and a half almost burning himself out dealing with a few Gotham street murders, and ending up a tad bruised and battered, AltDad had insisted he take his birthday off and even told him ahead of time. Apparently days off could be enforced because he was barred from access to his uniform. Wonderful.

Admitting defeat, you really had to when it came to The Batman, he'd almost resigned himself to brooding at home but realized someone would shove him out the door to make him have fun. It had been then that he decided that maybe he should tell Sarah he had a rare day off and spend it with her on a...well they didn't really have 'dates' but this might be close enough. Besides, if anyone could cheer him up she could. He never felt like he didn't belong here around her.

There's a quick rap at her window on the evening of his birthday and Sarah will find Robin hanging upside-down in civies and a mask.

What? Just because he couldn't get his uniform didn't mean he wasn't going to swipe one of the extra masks and utility belt.

	In his mind there was no reason they couldn't do both. It'd make the birthday more fun. "I brought towels in case," he smirks. And swimsuits but...he liked her idea better. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Towels are good. I don't want to drip all over that guy's nice stuff... I mean seriously. He could give Bruce Wayne a run for his money but according to his reputation? This guy is a naive goof ball. I'd feel bad if his stuff got stolen." Sarah usually doesn't admit that when it comes to private collectors. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Thomas shrugs, "Wayne doesn't have such a great reputation either. But he's got way better security than this guy if Wayne Tower is anything to go by." He's privately proud of the changes he's made to that system, and anyway, as great as the tower's security was, the Manor was a fortress in terms of security. And damn was he proud of that.

	"Well the difference between Wayne and this guy is that Wayne has a company. That means he has to be more.... aware of things. He has more than himself to think of. This guy? I bet he has no idea that his security is vulnerable." She shrugs a bit. "It's not bad security though. Could be better." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"He's old enough that he probably doesn't have as much of a hand in it as people think," he lies. "As for this guy's security...let's prove how much better it needs to be," Thomas says with a mischievous smirk. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That sounds like you want me to break in to someplace," Sarah teases him. Then just springs into action because she can see a good spot to start working on getting in. She is a master thief after ll so she knows how to break into many places. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"One time pass with supervision," he teases back before leaping after her to see where she's starting. "Meet you on the rooftop Foxy," comes a whisper in her ear and he's disappeared to find a different way in before she turns. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	outfoxing 2012-07-28 05:01 am UTC (link)
	Oh come on that's just mean. She fights off a pout because she'd love to come back to.... look around. He is such a tease. It takes her a bit but she manages to slip inside and in very short order finds her way to the roof. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-07-28 05:11 am UTC (link)
	He is a tease. But she's just as bad and it was fun to get back at her for it. Thomas gets to the rooftop pool around the same time she does and smiles over at her. He's glad the man keeps his pool clean with lights on. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sarah just smirks as she starts to take her sneakers off. If he doesn't hurry she'll end up naked. "Now skinny dipping? Or do you have a suit in there?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-07-28 05:14 am UTC (link)
	He chuckles and toes his own shoes off. "For you or me?" Well actually he had for both of them. And he was confident he got her size right. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	outfoxing 2012-07-28 05:45 pm UTC (link)
	"For me." She looks amused right now. "Toss it here. I'll try it on." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-07-28 09:30 pm UTC (link)
	He tries to hide the pleased grin, he really hadn't expected he'd get her in a bikini knowing she didn't like them. Really he was just being prepared in case. Although the smile that does end up on his face as he tosses what is very clearly not a one-piece at her might be at the edge of goofy. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	outfoxing 2012-07-28 09:33 pm UTC (link)
	She gets one looks at it then laughs. He is such a goof. Her goof and the fact she was claiming him was never going to be voiced out loud. She pulls her tank top and the sports bra off and starts to dress in the bikini top to be sure it won't fall off before she pulls her shorts off so she can pull the bottoms on too.

	He may have been a tad distracted watching this and only gotten his socks and jacket off. And he couldn't argue that he was ready for swimming while standing there with a tshirt and jeans. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	outfoxing 2012-07-28 09:56 pm UTC (link)
	Sarah is amused by him being distracted. "You've seen me undress lots of times. How is this any different," she teases him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Thomas crosses his arms and huffs slightly, "So, doesn't mean I can't appreciate it still." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	outfoxing 2012-07-28 09:59 pm UTC (link)
	She just chuckles. In a way it's to cover up the fact he just made her blush again. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-07-28 10:01 pm UTC (link)
	He rolls his eyes back at her. "So does it fit?" He was quite sure he had the right size, which was to be expected actually but still, he needed to ask. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	outfoxing 2012-07-28 10:14 pm UTC (link)
	"It's a little tight in some spots," she admits as she adjusts the bottoms. "And loose in others." She's not complaining. Water will likely fix that or she'll end up naked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-07-28 10:16 pm UTC (link)
	He frowns at the inconsistencies and puts it down to the cut of the bikini. "You make it look good anyway," he says while giving her a once over. Why she didn't like swimsuits he didn't know, she really did pull them off. Of course he's not complaining about the alternative she chooses. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sarah ends up smirking just a bit. She's noticing the t-shirt and well, Robin arms. Very distracting. "Well it's a good color on me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-07-28 10:24 pm UTC (link)
	"That may have been on purpose," comes the smirk. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	outfoxing 2012-07-28 10:33 pm UTC (link)
	"Well you really like red," she says with a smirk as she heads over to the pool. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-07-28 10:37 pm UTC (link)
	He smiles after her and starts taking his shirt off as he follows so he can join her in the pool. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
