Aug. 12th, 2017 09:33 pmIt was a nice and casual day. Still another week before orientation for his classes, and the plans for the completion and release of his smartwatch's development were almost done. He was debating what to do with his day before readying for patrol, just petting a sleepy Ace and lounging on his couch and reading news on his tablet when he gets the linked alert to a text mid-article.
It was from Billy. Just two words that had him confused for a moment before realization hit Tim like a wave and he felt his stomach drop. He didn't think this would happen again. At least, he hoped it wouldn't. But it has, and he needs to be there for his best friend.
She's gone.
Tim jumps off the couch, making Ace whine at being displaced so suddenly. He spares the dog an apologetic pat before he throws on a pair of jeans and grabs his bag, keys, and helmet.
"Sorry boy, but a friend needs me. You be good while I'm out, okay? I might be back late."
The pit-lab whines again, but he's been well trained. Tim knows he'll be okay. Worst case, he'll message Aggie to stop by and check on Ace if he's out until patrol.
He runs down the stairs of the building and check's Billy's location through their watches, speeding off to him when he gets it.

It was one of the things that had made him dislike Tim without really meeting him first. Now he could understand that sort of feeling though. But Billy wasn't going to do anything like that.
"It's going to hurt for a long time and I'll always miss her but I know eventually I'll be okay. It just hurts so much."

"But you will feel better with time. In the meantime, you got me and everyone else here for you to help. And we all love you. Just don't forget it."
