Batgirl Begins (dbspock/WendyTheRed)

Chloe shrugged. She was far from a legal expert, but she was still firmly of the opinion that if Batman wanted to do something, he would. "I don't know...lawyers represent corporations all the time. Maybe Batman has his logo trademarked through a shell corporation." Chloe theorized, then blinked when Babs tried to reassure her. "Yeah...you got me the interview. The rest is on me, I'm afraid." She admitted, then raised an eyebrow in surprise when Babs seemed to consider her offer of a haircut. "Well, when your ready, just say the word." Chloe said, then pretended her fingers were a pair of scissors and mocked cutting Babs hair.

Dave kept his gaze fixed on Babs when she sat across from him. Her clothes had dried a bit, but they still draped a bit more than usual, showing off a bit more of her cleavage. The wet fabric also clung to her skin, outlining her breasts beneath the sports bra. "Ummm...your welcome." Dave mumbled when he registered she spoke to him. He raised his eyebrows in shock when Chloe suggested he might get on the disk. "I hope not." He admitted. He was nowhere near ready for that. He couldn't help but grin as she waved the French fry at him, then playfully reached out and tried to snatch it from her.

There was a few moments of silence after Babs asked her question, then Dave realized John had no intention of speaking. "Uh...yeah. This is...John." Dave said, introducing the other boy to Babs.
 
Barbara smiled. "True, but they still need to be able to meet with their client and know the facts and stuff. Anyway, it's not important. And if Batman wants to sue me, well, guess I'm out of luck." She shrugged and listened to Chloe's doubts. "It is. Just like getting hired was on me. You have an advantage I didn't. You have a friend on the inside." She winks playfully. "Not that I have any power over Bruce Wayne's decisions..."

Barbara was unaware that her clothes were showing a bit more of herself than usual. In part because her mind was elsewhere and in part because she was too hungry. She smiled as Dave mumbled a reply to her, used to his awkwardness and not realizing it might have a different source this time. "Well, who knows what Sensei Larusso will do. Maybe he'll wait for you to have more practice in balance first." She reached up and gather her hair behind her head again, a bit annoyed at how it draped over her and kept getting her shirt wet. The action of course, slightly arched her spine and showed off the swell of her breasts more. In some girls it would have been done on purpose to get attention but Barbara truly didn't even think about it.

Barbara smiled at Dave. "I know who he is. I'm the one who invited him here. I just didn't know if you two had met." She ate some more of her french fries and looked between the two, wondering if John was pissed off about something or just generally not very good with people. She realized she had no idea, especially after how he'd seemed angry with her earlier today. She lapsed into a bit of a silence and finished off her fries, turning her attention to her burger next.
 
"If Batman got upset with you, suing you would be the least of your problems." Chloe pointed out grimly, taking what she'd come to call the Jim Gordon approach and not mention that unemployment would be one of Bab's issues. "And any insider tips you can offer to get me to ace the interview, please let me know." After all, Babs had clearly nailed her interview, so maybe she knew some secret password or something.

Dave opened his mouth to reply to her comment, but then she arched her back, and it looked like her breasts were going to pop right out and poke him in the eye. They didn't, of course, but they did cause Dave to completely forget what he'd been about to say until Babs spoke again, and that caused him to blush furiously as he realized his attempt to be polite and introduce the pair had made him look like an idiot. he had zero to say to that, so silence descended on the table once again.

Babs, at least, had something to keep her mouth busy as she ate her dinner, and the two males at the table just sat there and watched her eat, at least until Sam and Chloe returned. Sam clearly thought training was over for the evening as she'd put Chloe in a sundress, clearly not appropriate attire for training. Sam plopped down next to John and stole one of Babs fries even as Chloe settled down in front of her own food. "So...how was your first day of work?" Sam asked Babs.
 
Barbara couldn't help a smirk. "He's already been upset with me. Trust me, you don't want to wake up in the middle of the night with him standing over your bed asking why you hacked the Batmobile...." She bit her lip at Chloe's next question. "Well, Bruce Wayne did think you looked nice in a bikini..." She shrugged and managed to keep her face utterly impassive, not giving a clue as to whether she was teasing or not.

She saw Dave's furious blushing and blinked, unsure what had caused it. She glanced from him to John and back but decided not to say anything out of fear she might make things worse. She apparently had a talent for that in social situations. So, she just threw herself into finishing her dinner and was mostly done by the time Sam and Chloe stepped out. Barbara noticed the sundress and realized she'd been wrong about training continuing and was a little surprised to realize she was disappointed.

She considered Sam's question and decided to give a true, but heavily edited version of events. "Well, let's see. I answered some phone calls and met a very nice woman from IT who got the assignment to set up my logins on the computer and things like that. Then Mister Wayne's chief of staff, I think that's her title, gave me an assignment which caused me to barely miss out on meeting Lucius Fox. Following that, I checked a vehicle out of the motor pool and Mister Wayne and I went to get me some clothes that were suitable as his assistant. We went to a lunch meeting with some government people and then I went back to Wayne Enterprises and delivered some paperwork to R&D and asked them a lot of questions and looked at some of the stuff they were working on. I checked out a vehicle for my personal use and then my work day was pretty much over after I filled out my HR paperwork." She shrugged casually and ate the last fry that Sam hadn't stolen. "So, I guess nothing too unusual."
 
Chloe shook her head adamantly. She most certainly did NOT want to meet Batman at night, and absolutely not in her bedroom. She did blink, though, her eyes wide, at Babs next statement. "Wait...what?" She asked, not totally confused where that came from. "When did Bruce Wayne ever see me in a bikini?" She wondered. She couldn't even remember the last time she'd worn a bikini.

Sam listened attentively, not appearing at all bored, when Babs began reciting her day. John looked at her with confusion when she mentioned a female chief of staff, as he knew damn well there was no one like that at Wayne Enterprises. Dave was interested because it was better than the awkward silence that had preceded it. Chloe was interested because she hoped there might be a clue she could use for her interview.

Sam chuckled when Babs finished. "All that on your first day?" She asked with a shake of her head, then frowned when Babs snatched up her last fry. "Hey!" She protested, then grinned as she saw Chloe still had some. Sam reached out and snatched one of hers, and it was Chloe's turn to protest, though it fell on deaf ears. Sam grinned as she twisted in her seat a bit, and held the fry up to John's lips. His eyes widened in surprise a bit, then he smiled as he opened his mouth and took the fry. Sam grinned in satisfaction as she turned to Babs again. "So that explains the hot rod out front, then. I'll make sure Dad knows you didn't get it from a competitor." She chuckled.
 
She laughed at Chloe's confusion. "I'm sorry, I should have said 'thinks you would look nice in a bikini'." She shrugged. "I doubt he's actually seen you in one unless you have a modelling career I don't know about."

She saw the look of confusion on John's face and mouthed 'Sara' to him when she caught his eye. She turned her gaze to Sam then and shrugged. "I have no idea if it's typical of a day there or if it just happened to be a crazy day. I guess we'll find out. I did make a new friend or two at work. Amanda, the nice woman from IT I mentioned, Stan, a guy in the motor pool though I think he is a bit scared of me because of who I work for." She smiled. "A couple of guys in R&D." "Though, I also met a total scumbag in R&D. Some guy who has a job because his dad is on the board of Wayne Enterprises." She shakes her head. "He kept shooting vulgar gestures at me..."

She nodded at Sam's reply about the car. "Yeah, that's out of the motor pool. I won't have to constantly beg for rides. I meant to check out something more practical but I saw it and uhhh...couldn't resist."
