The holiday season had its own party circuit, which meant a good deal of required attendances, fake smiling, and either lining up dates for parties or avoiding debutantes should you go stag. So not exactly his favourite part of the holiday season, especially when you added in the penchant for these sorts of things to get robbed. But the Gotham lot was a jaded one, hell, they bet on which parties would get hit.

Wayne ones had the highest chances. Typical.

At least this particular charity one he didn't hate. The benefit had a medical theme, and of course Wayne Enterprises would be there, Bruce had established the Thomas Wayne Foundation specifically for dealing with medical related things. The foundation was hosting the event to raise money for various organizations, Doctors Without Borders among them. Though tonight he was mostly grateful he'd never changed his name, because god would it be awkward to have the same name as the foundation hosting this thing.

Thomas had on the usual impeccably tailored suit expected of him at these things, and he adjusted the red tie a bit before walking by one of the drink trays and swiping a glass for himself. Long night here, he'd need the drink.

If I so much as hear one banjo note...

The batmobile did not get lost on the road, that just didn't happen. The satellite gps was just too good and that thing could handle nearly any terrain.

Now the car he'd...borrowed, when their rent-a-car had broken down after an out of town mission...well that certainly could get lost. Especially since there was construction on the only main highway and the only road left had somehow led them to...was this a swamp? He was pretty sure this counted as a swamp.

Ugh god they were tire deep in swamp in the middle of nowhere with no other roads to go down and construction on the last one.

"I hate the country," Thomas grumbled in the driver's seat.

The Queen Chili Challenge

He couldn't say he'd ever been in this place before, not like he'd known Dinah well in any world, only in passing through Babs. So of course he took the time to take in the place. And what might seem like an appreciative glance around at the decor was really him trying to gauge how good the security was. Not that he planned to break in, it was just a habit of his. "Is this place used much?"

Ustulation

2013-06-11T07:28:15Z

So somehow he'd managed to torture himself with the way things got organized. How this had happened, he wasn't sure, considering he'd been aware of what was scheduled for today but somehow this had happened. A good tip about certain mafia movements from the Fox had somehow led to the usual heavy flirting and teasing between the two of them. How this had led to the mention of a late night rooftop pool, he wasn't even sure at this point, all he knew was that she had that teasing smile on her face when he'd heard a 'See you there tomorrow then' and then of course she was gone.

Now this normally wouldn't be an issue, and he'd spend the day looking forward to this, she didn't like swimsuits after all. Except...distracting day dreams on their own were one thing. Add them with this day time engagement he'd had scheduled for a while, that he /knew/ he had to go to today and...torture.

Victoria's secret swimsuit show. Small, rather exclusive gathering, and being one of the younger business attendees...the flirty looks his way.

And during all that he'd have to spend all his energy thinking of the most unsexy thoughts ever. Otherwise how could any guy stand it?

Making things worse, one Maria to laugh at him and make this so much worse.

Ugh.

AU meme: Thief in the night

2012-11-26T22:33:43Z

He didn't come to Gotham all that often, but once in a while he'd make the trip. It was his mother's old hunting grounds after all, and seeing the places of her stories and trying to reenact the thieving bits never got old. Not to mention the security was better than most cities. No doubt leftover from her more villainous days.

Thomas had already snuck into the Gotham Museum of Art and was at the Van Gogh exhibit they were famous for. Cameras off, sensors evaded, no security nearby meant he was free to take a moment to take it all in.

These field trips were always fun.

36. What is the most evil thing you have ever done?

That's a strong word.

37. When was the time you were the most frightened?

Early days as Robin and there was a gang war and I got shot. The trip to the cave was terrifying.

38. Have you ever traveled outside of your country? If so, to where?

Lots of places, hell I've travelled to a different universe. I think that trumps it all.

Beliefs

39. What is your alignment?

I fight crime okay? What more do you need to know?

40. Are you basically optimistic or pessimistic?

Pessimistic but really is that surprising to you? I'm a Gothamite.

47. What are your views on gambling, lying, theft, and killing?

In moderation, it's needed, complicated, and no killing.

48. How far will you go to defend your beliefs?

Who writes these ridiculously general questions? You have to give me more to go on than something that vague. Really, some people.

49. How much do you value money?

It's useful in getting things done.

50. In your opinion, what is the most evil thing any human being could do?

Don't know.

53. Are you superstitious?

*has to chuckle* I do not fall in the "superstitious and cowardly lot" no.

54. How much do you respect the beliefs and opinions of others?

Up to a point. But things need to get done and if you spend forever entertaining silly ideas you won't get anywhere.

55. How honest are you about your thoughts and feelings?

To who? Myself? Others? Who writes this nonsense?

56. Do you have any biases or prejudices?

Everyone does. Anyone who thinks otherwise is delusional.

Dealing With Others

57. Who is the most important person in your life, and why?

It's always family.

58. Who is the person you respect the most? Despise the most? Why?

Dad. Well, AltDad is the same thing almost but yeah, he's done a lot and sacrificed a lot for Gotham and it irks me when people forget that and whine about his attitude. He's thinking of the big picture, sorry if you can't see that and he hurt your feelings. Get over it. And of course Alfred. Always Alfred. He gets all my respect, that man was a saint.

59. Do you have a significant other? Who?

That's...complicated right now. And I don't want to say anything because of nosy relatives.

60. Do you have a lot of friends? Who is your best friend?

No, kind of had to restart the whole friend thing so not many.

61. How do you relate to members of the same race? Class? Sex?

Fine, always on a case by case basis.

Again, case by case.

Someone who gets me, has a mischevious streak, and is sharp as hell.

66. Do you want a marriage, family, and/or children?

Not sure really.

Listener.

Sometimes yes, if it's a mission sort of thing.

72. Do you like interacting with large groups of people?

Not particularly I prefer less people.

73. How well do you express yourself?

Isn't that something you need to ask other people?

74. How quickly do you judge others?

Very quickly, you need to make snap decisions. It's how it works in the field, but you should still be able to adjust the impression.

75. Do you care what others think of you?

I should, it's about making an impression

76. Do you have any enemies? How or why are they your enemy?

Most of the criminal element in Gotham? Gee, I wonder why that is.

Breaking into things, Red, Bacon, and...well I kind of lost all my possessions when coming here so I guess I'll go with the motorcycle.

78. What are your preferences in arts and/or entertainment?

I usually just frequent art galleries and museums. Movies by yourself are...kind of sad but I do it anyway. Horror movies just make me roll my eyes though.

79. Do you smoke, drink, go whoring, or use drugs? Why or why not?

Yeah, I laugh enough. Around some people, not everyone.

Little shocks me nowadays. Jaded by Gotham I guess, but you can certainly still offend me.

85. How do you deal with stress?

I get really into my work

86. How much athletic ability do you have? Artistic?

*rolls eyes* Yes, I swing around the city with no powers. It /must/ mean I have zero athletic ability.

87. Do you like animals? Do you like children?

I love cats, I should get one again...

88. Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan?

Always have a plan. But I'm good at winging it too, you have to be flexible.

89. What are your pet peeves?

Bad thieves.

Self-Image

Thomas Birthday Shenanigans

2012-07-28T03:38:10Z

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.

Cooking Date Disaster!

2012-07-16T17:58:09Z

Sure they usually ran into each other randomly on rooftops but once in a while he'd pop in on one of her safehouses hoping to find her. Perched on his usual window sill in the living room he smiles and is about to call out a greeting when he realizes she's not in the room. But there's the distinct smell of cooking in the air.

To the kitchen Robin!

Stealthily he makes his way there and peeks in. Last time he'd found her there she'd been washing dishes while singing while drunk. Oh and wearing very little. Not that he expected that this time.

Happy Birthday Foxy (blood-free version)

2012-04-27T01:29:52Z

Tonight was a strictly non-business night. And he was for all intents and purposes going to pretend this was March 20th and not...over a month later. So while he may be dressed in an all black suit and shirt with a red tie and a classic domino mask that was just Robin enough for her to see it, but not enough for a too obvious connection for anyone else, he was certainly not really "Robin". That would mean there was some aspect of the crimefighting in there. And tonight that was off the table. This was about as close as to the real him as he could get, that odd mix between Thomas and Robin that never appeared if he was worried about fighting crime or people not finding out he was Robin.

About a week ago he'd broken into one of her safehouses and left a note about the party they were going to hijack for her birthday.

Because if you were going to crash a party discretely you had to do it with style.

And for the two of them? That meant a masquerade party was the way to go.

20 Questions

2012-03-03T21:24:37Z

1. When were you born? Where?
Gotham City, almost 19 years ago. You do the math.

2. What were some of the first words and phrases you spoke?
I used to apparently call Dick "silly" a lot when I first learned to speak.

3. At what age did you first attend school? What school did you go to? Did you like it?
6, Gotham Elementary Academy. It was fine for a private school, I prefered the public schools I went to later on.

4. Name one of your fondest childhood memories.
I had a ring of lock picks Mom gave me and I'd go around the Manor opening everything I could. She'd hide stuff around the house for me to break into and find. Our version of a treasure hunt.

5. Now name one of your worst.
Got shot twice in a mission during my really early years as Robin, before I even got to solo patrols. Young enough that I'll count that as a childhood thing.

6. Name one of your most embarrassing.
Robin initiations, nuff said.

7. Which parent/adult were you closest to as a small child?
Mom

8. What about as a teenager?
See above answer, that didn't change.

9. Did you ever try drinking, drugs, or both? What all have you tried? Were you ever caught?
Drinking yes, recreational drugs no. And never caught but I think they'd be more disappointed in me for getting caught than the drinking part.

10. Did you ever skip school? How frequently?
I fight crime in Gotham. Which occurs at all times, not just at night. That should give you your answer.

11. Who was your best friend when you were really small?
Really small? How small is that? Because if we're talking toddler I'd have to go with Isis, she was more fun than other kids. But if you mean elementary then it'd be Mark Hadden. We were soccer buddies.

12. Who was your best friend when you were a teenager?
Isis is still up there but in civilian ID only it'd still be Mark, overall including the Robin thing I'd say most of the Teen Titans too.

13. Did you sleep with stuffed animals? At what age did you stop – if you ever did?
Not really, I had a cat who'd curl up with me. I also had a Batman plushie Babs made me on a shelf, never had it on the bed, and a tiger one but that was only brought places and on the bed if Isis wasn't around.

14. Did you ever have braces or glasses growing up?
No.

15. Did you ever break your arm or leg and need crutches – or anything similar to that?
Similar to answer 10. I fight crime in Gotham. I have no enhanced durability or superpowers at all. Connect the dots.

16. Did you ever have any strange habits that you outgrew but were teased for?
No strange habits that most people would notice.

17. How well did you get along with your parents and siblings?
Very well with all of them. We're pretty close knit mash-up of a family. And yes, siblings doesn't mean blood related in this context, because I have quite a few of them.

18. If you could go back and change one thing about the past, would you? What would you change?
I'm not sure anything that I'd even consider changing would be in my power to change. I don't like regretting things, it wastes time and there's no guarantee that things will end up better if you did change them. Because while I wish some things had ended up better and I could save people, I can't berate myself about it because it doesn't help.

19. What were some of your favorite pranks to pull when you were younger? Did you have any favorite jokes? What made you laugh the most back then?
My sense of humour hasn't changed all that much, I'm just more devious. I can't reveal any pranks because new universe means I'm free to use them again and nobody will see them coming.

20. Did you have any pets? If not, why? If you did, what were they?
Yes, Isis was my russian blue cat. She'd jump onto my shoulders and we'd go on adventures. Everyone assumes Mom gave her to me, but she was actually a present from Dad for my first christmas. He just likes to maintain a reputation and lets people think he didn't.

Batman and Batsuit upgrades (for future things)

2012-02-20T06:13:44Z

Batsuit:

The predecessor to the batsuit seen in Batman Beyond. Although not as advanced in terms of technology, it has most of the groundwork that can be built on as the tech becomes available to become the beyond batsuit (likely not available yet though).

The batsuit gives Thomas the following upgrades:
- Enhanced strength (double his own, the beyond version allows ten times this one isn’t there yet)
- Little reduction in flexibility and lighter armour to increase speed
- Higher resistance to heat, cold, and electricity
- Retractable part that covers the mouth of the cowl and has a built in rebreather
- Electrical discharge throughout the suit to shock enemies
- Gliding through the air via the retractable wings under his arms
- Use of the scalloped fins on the gloves as retractable knives or a buzz saw (before was just the retractable knives bit and taking them off for throwing too if needed)

In addition to these upgrades, he retains the following:
- Utility belt stocked with the usual fare including: batarangs, smoke pellets, flash bombs, lock picks, first aid, tracers, cuffs, grappling gun, etc
- Lenses with night, infrared and binocular vision
- Comm unit built into the mask
- Remote piloting and communication with the motorcycles, batmobile and batplane

(RIP cape, he'll miss you)

Thomas and Sarah- Meme- Angst- Seperation (AU)

2012-02-07T02:35:20Z

She'd been gone for months without a word and with no way to trace her. Just vanished into thin air. Had it been anyone else he'd be mad that they could even pull that off without him finding them. But with her...well he'd admit he was more hurt than anything. If she was going to up and leave he'd expected...well at least a goodbye, or some note or something. Not just an empty place and no leads to follow.

Which is why she's the last person he expects to see when he drops by a supermarket in one of the smaller neighbourhoods on his way home. There's an initial moment of shock and then it hits him what she's buying and her...condition. He probably scares a few of the other customers by the way he stands there, eyebrow twitching in anger, and glaring daggers at the young woman innocently making her purchases.

He never makes it home. Instead he follows her, recklessly still in his civilian ID, as far as he can without alerting her to his presence to where she's staying. Still blinded by anger, he doesn't wait till it's completely dark and changes to Robin gear to sneak into her living room ahead of her.

A tall shadow looms behind Sarah's couch, eyebrow still twitching, as she enters.

Meme- Thomas and Maria- Betrayal

2012-01-22T22:45:16Z

"Why'd you have to go tell him?!"

Great. This was just...argh. Here he thought he'd done a good job keeping it a secret, and even when Maria had found out he'd thought she'd keep it from Bruce the way he kept her secrets from the Boss too. "I've never breathed a word about your dancing to him," he hisses at her. "And you go right ahead and tell him about...why?!" Maria finding out about...whatever it was between him and the thief, he could live with. If only because he'd thought that she wouldn't go telling the freakin' Batman, because along with the intense disapproval he knew was coming he'd also get a heap of hypocritical lecturing. From the goddamn Batman! As if he'd never done the exact same thing.

Sometime in the future

It's been a long and hard night of detective work for Thomas. A rash of killings has hit Gotham and the victims seem unconnected no matter what angle they've looked at. Was it the beginnings of a gang war or a random killer on the loose? So far interrogating the scum all over the city has been useless. They know nothing. Not in the way where they know something and aren't telling, but they genuinely don't know anything about the mystery killer or killers he's hunting. He's not sure if the possibility that this is an isolated individual should relieve him or not, after all, so far they've got no real evidence that it's even one killer or that these killings are related. But there's no such thing as coincidence for a detective.

Thomas decides to rest at one of the nearby satellite caves Batman has set up around Gotham over the years, it's cold and rainy and he's sick of hitting dead ends. This is one of the smaller ones, stocked with basic gear, a civilian change of clothes, first aid and some food. It also happens to be the one he's told the Fox about. Not that he'd admit to doing that if any of the others asked. But if she wanted to find him or needed help, he wanted her to have a safe spot to go. Maybe that's why he seems to gravitate towards this one whenever he can, it's not like he ever expects her there though.

He shakes out the rain from his cape as he enters and is about to peel of the mask when he sees the bleeding figure on the floor.

Test Scene

First thing he registers: he’s face down in mud.
Never a good way to wake up, especially not in Gotham. Slowly he regains feeling in his limbs…and promptly he wishes he hadn’t. He aches all over, so much that he can’t tell where it hurts, just that it hurts all over.

With what seems to be a Herculean effort he manages to lift himself partially off the ground to figure out what fresh hell he needs to face now. He’s not quite recovered but in a split second he recognizes where he is. Wayne Manor grounds.

And for a brief moment he entirely forgets the destruction of Gotham and the sight of his universe crumbling before him as he groans.

“Unconscious on the grounds in Robin gear? Dad’s going to kill me…”

Player (nickname, handle)/ LJ: Sands

Email: five_sands@hotmail.com

AIM: sands2279

Character Name: Thomas Kyle

Character LJ (if applicable): cantkeepmeout

Physical description (face, build, weight): 6’2, 185 pounds, intense blue eyes and black hair, athletic and lean build

Age: 18

Birthday: July 27

Codename (if using one): Robin but with changing universes and all, perhaps eventually a hero version of Red X

PB: (If using one.): Silviu Tolu

Abilities:

No superhuman abilities. Has been trained by the “bat family” and his mother since he was 6. Expert hand-to-hand, disguise, hacker, strategic planning, acrobatics, escape artist, and all forms of breaking and entering.

Weaknesses and flaws:

Same weaknesses as any normal, fit teenager of his age.

Despite all his training he has a bit of a inferiority complex when it came to his family. His training made him determined to be the best Robin but he always felt that he failed to measure up. He felt second best at everything. He was better at acrobatics than the other Robins, except the first. He was a great planner and strategist but the third Robin was still better. And so on. His only area where he had bested his predecessors was in breaking into things, be it buildings, safes, complexes, etc, all courtesy of his mother’s training. Thomas constantly tries to prove himself to his father that he is the best crimefighting partner. Even though his family thinks highly of his accomplishments and skills, he wants to be as good, if not better than them.

Growing up with a retired thief and a perfectionist made Thomas generally unimpressed by the older heroes as his view of them stems from hearing of their shortcomings from his father and because of learning of the other side of the law from his mother and her general disregard towards non-Gotham heroes. He gets along well within his own age group but finds it difficult to get along with the more experienced heroes. As a result he challenges authority when he sees fit. Although his personality is generally serious he has a mischevious side to him only those close to him see.

Character location/Home: Gotham

Alignment (villain, hero etc): Hero

Team: None at the moment but he doesn’t want to join the titans since he led them in his universe (too many associations), YJLA maybe

Relatives (living/dead?): (All are alt universes) Bruce Wayne (father), Selina Kyle (mother), Dick Grayson (adopted brother), Jason Todd (deceased/ adopted brother), Tim Drake (adopted brother), Barbara Gordon (sister-in-law)

Backstory:

The son of Selina Kyle and Bruce Wayne, Thomas became his father’s pet project. It was decided that he’d receive education not only from Batman himself but all the associates he trained in order to perfect crimefighting. From Dick he learnt acrobatics, from Tim planning and detective skills, Cassandra taught him to fight, and Babs taught him all computer related skills. Thomas is particularly close to his mother who has taught him all the tricks of her former trade, he takes pride in it as his claim to fame, there’s no security system he hasn’t beaten. He’s still living in the shadow of his brothers though. He goes by his mother's last name since he was born before the two wed and he never desired to change it to Wayne.

He started off as Robin to his father’s Batman, leading both Young Justice and later the Teen Titans.
Crisis of infinite earths eventually came to his world, destroying Gotham and somehow sending an injured Thomas to another universe. He’s found injured and unconscious on the Wayne property.
