Congratulations! You've reached Booster Gold! I'm probably saving the world right now, but your call is important to me. Leave a brief but adoring message and I'll get right back to you.

Oh

[Jesus Christ, Ted.]

Yeah that's what I was asking. Sorry for bringing it up so soon it's just that I've already been in the news once already and I'd like to avoid You know.

[ A minute later, the comm rings. ]

This piece of junk doesn't know how to spell timeline anomalies and neither do I, but that's what you're trying to avoid, right? Well, don't worry about it.

[Not hip enough for texting, eh, Booster?]

Yeah. Well, no. Even if I am worried about that, there's no way we'd actually be able to avoid it. It's just... you'd need a little heads up beforehand.

[And so, come to think of it, would Ted.]

Yeesh. Yeah, I guess so. I mean, there's no way it's not gonna be kinda weird, but...

Look, I meant it when I told you he'd be proud.

Thanks, Booster.

[He appreciates it, even though he still feels so nervous he wants to puke a little.

Or maybe that's excitement. He's still flipping back and forth on that one.]

I should, um... I should probably introduce myself at some point?

That'd be a good first step.

Are you nervous? Do I need to set up a play date or something?

No.

[Yes, but it's second nature to deny all nervousness like a champ.]

Maybe. It's just -- I don't know when a good time would be? I feel like he should have some time to settle in, or something.

[What's the respectful way of going about this?

...though he's starting to realize that if he's aiming for respect, maybe he shouldn't be asking Booster. Why did he call Booster? He should have called Power Girl.]

Yeah, there's not really a rulebook for this kind of thing. Though come to think of it, there probably should be.

Look, you want me to break it to him first?

[Jaime's quiet for a moment, seriously considering it, weighing what's probably the right thing to do versus the easy thing to do.]

...Nah, it's okay. I should do it. But do me a favour and let me know when a good time will be?

Honestly, I think you should just get it over with. It's been a couple days. It's not like a couple more is gonna make a huge difference.

[ ... talking about this is so surreal. Who's he to give advice to anyone? ]

He's probably gonna be really weirded out at first. But he'll get over it.

Okay. [There's a hint of a smile in his voice when he says,] I figured you would know. I'll do that. Soon.
