Gotham City's Own Paris Hilton

[not_a_wonder]

[Nessie isn't surprised that there wasn't a lot of turnout for this "Be a Big Sibling" sign up event. Although everyone in Gotham City knows that crime affects the children of the city, there aren't a lot of people willing to help fix that.]

[Of course, the stringent background check required for it might also scare some people off.]

[She hands off a copy of the brochure and says,] "I hope you'll consider being a Big Sibling for one of our foster kids in need! They could use more good influences in their lives."

[The woman smiles at her, and moves on to Nessie's boss for the presentation.]

[Nessie hears another person step up to her table. She holds up another brochure, and says again,] "I hope you'll consider being a Big Sibling for one of our needy foster kids!"

[He takes a few deep breaths, calming himself down.] I guess maybe sometimes... it's easier to talk with people you don't know. When you don't have to deal with the expectations.

But anytime you need someone to return the favor... feel free, okay? It's the least I can do for your best.

[Nessie pulls out her wallet, and presents him with a business card. She appreciates the offer that Dick is making, but she's not so sure she'll take him up on it. He seems spread thin enough as it is, especially with the Big Siblings commitment coming soon.]

I'm sure there'll be times in the future when you'll need to talk to someone. You can call me at this number.

[Dick... well, the line isn't word for word. But the echo makes him double-take, and laugh again with the general cocktail of emotions that it brings.]

Thank you. I'll... I'll try to call when I need.
