FALLOUTVERSE - Capital Wasteland into Vault 106 - DAY THREE

[bitchprince]

For a moment, it seemed almost like a rustic scene: a herd of calm, two-headed cows ambled idly past Fandom's camping spot, and took up a position to graze off what little grass managed to wrestle itself loose from the ruined soil, just a few feet away.

But overnight, the cracks had increased in size, cutting through the sky. Looking upwards now, it was almost as if whatever location they were pulled towards had a halo, a small ring of friendly skies from which the blackness shot out in several directions.

Furthermore, though, this was Radscorpion country, and the people who travelled here now would do best to watch their steps...

And after that, it was on to a small hidden door in the middle of nowhere - behind which hid Vault 106.

If Tim wasn't looking at him the way he was, Jason would have sworn up and down that he was seeing things again. He knew he wasn't the only Robin there'd ever been, but Tim didn't fit the bill at all, and Jason wished like hell that they were anywhere else right now but here, because his head was already swimming enough without all the new questions. How had he not figured out who Tim was? Was this an alternate world thing, like with Dinah, or Bruce being their age? Was Tim's Bruce not all about the young orphans?

"You're Robin?" he finally said quietly. He wasn't going to believe it until Tim actually said it.

"Yeah," Tim said. "This probably isn't the place to discuss it, though."

"No, probably not," Jason said, because if there was any conversation that required clear thinking, it was probably this one. They would definitely have to talk when they got back to Fandom - if they got back to Fandom, and that was the thought that had Jason add, "I'm not mad. Just...surprised. But we definitely need to talk." Maybe Tim wouldn't be mad that he hadn't said anything to him either.

Tim nodded. "Let's make it home safely first, okay?" Well, now if they died here, it'd have an upside - Tim'd be able to avoid discussing this with Jason.

"Good idea," Jason said, tucking the rebreather away in his pocket, where no one else would see how it looked. He tried to tell himself that the feeling of dread was just from being nervous about not making it home. "Come on, I think we need to head this way."

Tim nodded and followed Jason, keeping his makeshift staff ready for attack.
