Third Floor Common Room, Tuesday night

Frankly, Terry was still confused about what he missed being out of town last week. Listening to radio podcasts really didn't help matters. He was at the point where he was happy to just ignore it, focus on saving the world with Superman, and spending tonight in front of the TV watching the Olympics.

Of course, that led to stray thoughts about how his Bat-training would actually set him up to be a decent competitor, although that was slightly offset by the fact that he had chips to snack on. Did Olympians snack? Terry didn't know and didn't care enough to do the research. But Batman snacked. And that was good enough for him.

"Something pink," Jack responded with a serious nod. "Or if the TV had a grudge against me? Jersey Shore."

"Well on occasion the TV's have a mind of their own," Jack said with a sigh. "So even though you change the channel? You're still stuck watching creepy kids shows. Or a reality show you really don't need to see."

Granted you just leave and read a book somewhere else but that wasn't the point.

"I'm of the opinion that anything can happen around here," Jack said holding out his hand for a handshake. "Jack Carter, by the way."

"Yeah and last week was no picnic either," Jack said with a nod. "I'm amazed no one around hasn't gotten PTSD."

Jack frowned as he scratched his head. "Yeah, I might be the wrong guy to ask," he admitted. "Something magical with alternate timelines and it turned this place into a police state with a crazy woman in charge. It wasn't pleasant."

"No kidding," Jack smirked. "Where do you call home?"

"Ah, well, that's probably for the best," Jack replied. "I'm from a little town called Eureka which is... also on the odd side. Still haven't gotten used to the place though."

"Oh?" Jack said looking curious. "Who was that?"

Gotham. Bruce Wayne. Jack groaned and rubbed his head.

"Oh! Him," he said shaking his head. "Yeah, I remember Bruce."

And screaming like a girl in front of him last week. We'll not mention that out loud in front of Terry.
