Come talk to me.

It's Saturday night, I'm folding laundry, trying to convince myself to write my batfam fic, and basically just in general killing time until it's late enough that I can go to bed without waking up at 3 a.m. tomorrow morning.

It's wonderful and I love it. I love that Cass believes in Steph and that they have different strengths and that they can laugh about their horrible fathers together. And also that their hang-out involved rooftop tag and fighting evil.

Exactly! I was really blown away by how wonderful it was and how natural it felt.

Also, I don't quite get why it seems like everyone keeps underestimating Steph - emotionally, intellectually, and physically. It kind of feels like after they become friends, Cass is the person who never seems to underestimate Steph or think she can't handle it (at least not in the way that Bruce and Babs do).

Honestly, I feel like part of that was editorially mandated (Babs, Cass even has one moment of doubt, although hers involved taking a personal interest in Steph's training,) where it makes less sense for them to think she can't handle it, and part of it is because the people judging her were fucking dickheads (Bruce, Tim).
