( Warning, but not really. More like fond-but-exasperated teacher voice. She just wants to keep an eye on the recently dead one, okay? She has a lot of feelings. )
( Thank God. She hadn't realised how much she needed one until Stephanie suggests it. )
You could just ask for pointers.
( hahaha no she knows about Bats and their opinions of the Huntress, now Stephanie officially has that mantle she rather assues that shared. Unfortunate, but at least they're on the same side.

[Which is "Everything Steph chooses to be"]
Uh, probably not? Does Alfred's cooking count?
no subject
( Dinah Lance. Just... Dinah Lance.
And never did you think such withering disdain could be communicated in one syllable: ) No.
Come over at six. ( It's not an order. But it could be. )

Thank God Helena doesn't pun. )

To clarify: )
A spar sounds good.

[Hahaha
Ha.]
Four? At the Hold training rooms, unless you'd rather somewhere more private.
no subject
( "For now," because a few days of reflection and investigation have left her less than satisfied with this place. )
See you there.
