Thomas could barely restrain a chuckle at the events revolving around the new girl who had walked up. He honestly wasn't sure if this was just the traditional touchiness of the Bat-Family or if they were preening for the pretty bird.<em>Probably a bit of both,</em>he thought.

I'm Thomas," he ends offering his hand.
