Chapter 29 Big ol secrets

  I was going to look for the obvious bugs in their house but decide against it and just use a spell. “Elffab! Alright now anyone listening in with listening devices shouldn’t be able to hear us. We’ll sound like any adults talking in Charlie Brown to them now. I’m showing you a tremendous level of trust by telling you my main powers. The towers I got that made this all possible, that is.”

  She sat down and leaned forwards while Cassandra shuffled through the ets and made herself a bowl of cereal. “My main power and the one I pnned on using from the beginning is self biomatter trol. It lets me make ges to my body so I put all my stats at as low as they could possibly go and then fixed them with that single power. The pot was the growth power. It lets me select the lowest level of a power and it’ll eventually grow into the stro version, perhaps even past that iure.”

  She thought about what I said before asking. “So what about the magic. What about the s-sex power?” I just smile at her sihat is essentially what the power is. “That would be magical affinity and knowledge for the magid dual cultivation for the sex power. I’m effectively the foremost expert on anything magical because it gave me magical knowledge from across the universe, not just earth. The sex power is just that, it strengthens myself and anyone I have sex with.”

  She taps the table with her fingers before saying. “Cass… When me and Cass first met you she said you were sad for me. I… Would me knowing mess up the timeline?” I take in a deep breath as I’m about to go deep into her backstory. “If I’m being ho you are fairly o the Bat family in my timeline. Most ic writers don’t know what to do with you.”

  I will try to expin it better. “Alright so, everyone i family has something they’re as good if not better than batman at. For Dick it’s his acrobatic skills, Jason is a fighter at heart and Tim gets his detective side. Barbara is the best with puters, Cassandra is even more passiohan him risking her life to save enemies. For all is and purposes you’re boiled down to female Robin.”

  I sigh, hating what I’m about to say. “You’re known for wanting to prove yourself so much to Batman you start a gangwar and fake your death after almost dying to Bck mask. Your on and off retionship with Tim is going to be off for a really long time since he left. I mean it’s not really my pce to out him but Tim is gay.”

  She had a ptive look on her fatil I said the st line. She stuttered. “hat!? No way! Nuh uh, you’re full of shit! There’s no way Tim is gay!” Cassandra chimed in with a mouthful of cereal. “Affirmative. He likes boys.” Stephaurowards Cass in an instant before yelling. “You knew! Who else does!?”

  She paused and thought about it. “Everyo you.” She stomped around the house pulling at her hair. “Dammit that expins so much! We’ve only… Why did he lead me on for so long?” She sat down with a sad look on her fad I put my hand on her leg. “Because he didn’t want to hurt you. When you started dating the first time you were both like thirteen, he probably didn’t know what he liked back then.”

  She just sat there before leaning ba the chair. “God, I’ve never smoked before but I feel like I need a cigarette. Do you?” She looked at me. “Yea I keep them on me for other people but you don’t really need one.” She looked at me questioningly before I gave her an answer.

  “I keep beer in my fridge but don’t drink, cigarettes o I don’t smoke and a bottle of ja my glove partment when I own a car. Ahing I picked up in the army, when enough people die near you asking for a final cigarette or beer you keep them close by.”

  She gave me a solemn look before looking square in the eye. “Fine. You’ve worn me down. I’ll go out with you. BUT! I’m not cheap. I want at least three dates before you get anything and at least oe a week after.” That’s a lot. I don’t want to make any promises I ’t keep. “Alright, unless one of us is extremely busy. I’m fairly zy but the Batfamily doesn’t really take breaks. You learn magid everyone is going to be begging you for help.”

  I gave her a big smile before asking. “So you want to do one of those dates tonight?”
