Dick Grayson 002 Ⓡ video

[The Pokegear snaps on, and Dick, in a nice waiter's shirt, slumps down against a wall and sighs.]

So this is, uh, ridiculously embarrassing.

[His hair's slicked back, too, and he's loosening a little bow tie with his other hand. Tugging at it with a little more force than strictly necessary.]

Exactly, um. Does anyone have any tips for how to... like, not go broke? How do people keep track of money? How do you not run out?

I plead lack of maturity, lack of understanding of the value of a... whatever the unit of currency is here, I don't even know.

And yeah, okay, if you all want a good laugh at my expense, my foster father is a billionaire, both through inheritance and being the CEO of a worldwide corporation. Go ahead, I've heard all the rich kid jokes and I don't really care, I'd just be grateful, in return, for a little--

[There's a voice yelling in the distance, something about not being paid to take breaks; Dick jumps up and shuts off the feed immediately. He does have a work ethic, okay, he was a circus performer until he was nine, but that money was all put in the bank.]

Someone hasn't been watching the news lately. Gym Leader Clair, it seems, is quite the wealth of sordid information about her fellow Gym Leaders, and at least one of them has some sort of secret he's holding over her head right back.

Tell that to our resident newscasters.

I'm sure he has some kind of leverage over her, too, but in this case, I think it was the Ecruteak City Gym Leader with something she doesn't want revealed to the public.

They reported a mysterious brown envelope. I for one wouldn't mind knowing what was inside it.

Manufactured mysterious or legit mysterious?

They have their ratings to think of.
