[tucky]

you made it sound like anybody who didnt agree with you didnt understand or care

i was an inmate and a teenage girl to

[ichoosefight]

I was upset. It felt like nobody understood or cared.

[tucky]

chris was being a dick as usual but iris and dr cambridge werent

[ichoosefight]

Sure, whatever. I don't want to fight about this.

[tucky]

fine

guess that shows how much you respect me

[ichoosefight]

[ She starts and erases a lot of very mean, very hurt messages before finally replying. ]

I guess I'm just a dumb teenager.

[tucky]

i dont think that but you act like you think im dumb, you and a lot of other people

that's enough tiffany, im done here tiffany, be quiet tiffany

[ichoosefight]

I don't think you're stupid. I am trying not to take my own issues out on you.

[tucky]

[... Well, okay. That deflates Tiffany's anger a bit.]

ok

im sorry

[ichoosefight]

[ She is trying. ]

I guess we both have problems with getting people to take us seriously.

[tucky]

yea i got a lot of those

[ichoosefight]

[ She doesn't respond for a while, thinking of how to make things better. ]

I'm breaking up with my boyfriend. He keeps thinking I'll stop 'playing at being a hero' eventually. That it's too dangerous for me, but not him.

[tucky]

when dangerous stuff happens here people try to put me in a bubble

they think they get to protect their people but i dont get to protect mine

they think i just dont understand whats dangerous but its really that i know and think its worth doing anyway

im sorry about your boyfriend

[ichoosefight]

Yeah, me too.

I think the only reason Iris trusts me on my own is because Babs does, and she knows I've been throwing myself at danger for 3 years and I'm not going to stop.

[tucky]

iris is one of the only people who trusts me i think

lots of people here dont respect my thoughts and opinions

[ichoosefight]

That's just stupid. I know how much it takes to graduate. And you still seem willing to learn new things. That's more than a lot of people can say.

[tucky]

im not so sure what it takes to graduate but thats a whole different story

i dont mind people who

hold on

[Audio is easier for this conversation; she switches over.]

I don't mind people who just worry. I worry about people, too. But I fucking hate it when people act like I can't do anything.

Sounds like we got some of the same problems, you and me.

[ichoosefight]

[ Steph smiles at the switch, and it warms her voice. ]

Yeah, that's a little bit what got me killed in the first place. It's hard, not to assume the worst of yourself when other people have been doing it for you for years.

[tucky]

What happened to you?

[ichoosefight]

It's kind of complicated. I accidentally started a gang war, and a would-be gang boss caught me in the middle of it.

[tucky]

Are you a gangster, Steph? I didn't know that.

[ichoosefight]

I'm a vigilante. I fight gangsters.

[tucky]

Oh.

[That makes more sense, considering what she knows of Steph.]

I knew you did the crime-fighting stuff.

[ichoosefight]

See, Batman has connections in the gang world. He has to, to keep an eye on things. It's all very secret.

So secret he didn't tell his partner about it until after it got her killed.

[tucky]

Were you involved in that?
