They actually have some relative peace and quiet. Ra's doesn't contact her, for once holding to his word. She spends most of her grounding working on designing a new identity and exploring some ideas for the Neon Knights Foundation. Going back to school is... a bit awkward after her long absence, but she had plenty of free time to catch up on the schoolwork. Zoanne and Ives are both a bit pissed off at her for her disappearing act, but they calm down a little when she tells them she had major surgery, with the medical alert bracelet for a compromised immune system to show for it. Ives is actually especially supportive, to the point where she sort of wonders why the hell she didn't talk to him earlier, minor breakdown notwithstanding.

So things are actually going really well when "Bruce Wayne" shows up to sign her out of classes. She's careful not to let any of the confusion or anger show on her face but the minute she can get away with it, she whispers a furious, "What the hell are you doing?"

Hush smiles at her genially and just says that he wants some bonding time with his kids, like that's a normal thing. She's just about ready to slip him and walk away when the plural hits her.

Damian's school lets out earlier than hers. "What did you do."

He slings an arm around her and guides her towards his car. Once the door's open, she can see that Damian's already in it, buckled in fastidiously and unconscious. The unnaturally pale tint to his skin tells her it's absolutely not a normal sleep, although the lack of apparent injury makes her think it's due to being drugged rather than violence. She wants to just grab the little demon brat and make a run for it, but she's not confident she can fight her way out of this with 84 pounds of unconscious hellspawn in her arms.

Hush's reminder that, as far as anyone knows, he's their legal guardian, and assurances that he just wants to talk (not to mention the clear threat that he's perfectly willing to drug her cooperation, too, or give the extra dose to Damian and god knows what that would do to the kid) just barely convince her not to make a scene yet. Instead, she sits stiffly next to Damian and keeps a finger on his pulse to monitor it for danger.

So. That's her day.
