So how did your date go, Holmes?

Food was good, Watson, but I detected that the veg had grown from a field next to the sewage works
She was impressed when I noted her jewelry has been purchased from a famous fence in the East End, though

& after?

She had to rush off

Execution on Earth on fake charges or be a Martian

Your grandad - it took balls, that 1st step to enter the rocket

He said the sadistic guards manhandled them, even as they climbed in

The prisoners were scared?

Guards were provoking to invalidate them going

Batman bends down to pick up his utility belt & sighs

"wassup, Bats?"

"My back, Robin, I'm getting too old for this malarkey. I wish I could transform into a more cerebral crimefighter, like Columbo"

"Or an antihero like Sly Cooper, eh? Be more fun, Bats"

"But I just want to chill, Holmes - watch some footie, it's the weekend"
"Crime doesn't do weekends, Dr.Watson"
"But traveling to Devon, to, what, Baskerville's? For a mystery about a dog? In cold & rain"
"I have a feeling this could be our biggest case, Watson"

Dr.Watson?
Yes, Holmes?
A super detective is bound to get haters. I think I'm hated.
Who?
Inspector Sloth?
He doesn't love you but doesn't hate you. Just thinks you're a smarty pants.
Prof.Motiarty?
He's just an enemy. It's not personal.
Well, I'm just getting hate vibes
Sherlock, that'll be Madge the bar maid. She's a bit venomous with everyone & you don't engage in small talk or tip.

They told us we were on a training exercise, to some rocks out in the belt. It wasn't training. 500 elite. Two of us returned. This suit stands by my recovery pod on Mars base, says I'm a hero but if I'm to be patched up better than human, I need to say nothing.

"Stop sniggering Robin, at least you seem to find something in this, even if it's humour . Why can't Riddler's messages be a bit easier & direct. I mean, "your lips around my head. I get bigger when blown."

"There's a balloon fest in Gotham tomorrow, Bats?"

The headphones roar like erupting volcanoes. My eyes adjust to dull light & lightning flashes above. The sensors feed it all into my visor. The exploratory drone flies over wet lava towards Áine Corona but dies before it can get there. Another $b mission fail. I go get a coffee.

It's'Rebel' night at the bar. The usual crowd jet over the jagged rocks of the Martian surface, on their retro hover scooters, to bond over the rebellion against Earth. The usual patrons keep well clear but the real psycho, damaged, originals are long dead. These mainly work in admin.
