[ cass is still asleep. still in her suit, with the cape, cowl, belt, boots and gloves dropped to the side. she's curled up beside steph with a bit of distance, in the guest room where they'd. basically just fallen after patrol. daylight streams in between the curtains, and one particularly annoying sunbeam crosses over her face--which just gets her to turn her head, ball up a little more on the bed, and drag some of the covers a bit with a groan. she's not awake, by any means. her arm shifts, sprawling over steph. ]
[It's nice to not have to worry about your mom bursting in and finding you in your supersuit. Even if that wouldn't matter now, Steph's still gotta appreciate the Wayne guest room for instant vigilante sleepy times.
She snuggles up closer to Cass, then steals a bit of the blankets.]
Don't hog 'em...
[... she's actually the one hogging them, but she's still asleep.]

[Steph groans because she's been bapped! And also she's sort of starting to wake up. She yawns and rolls over to the other side, moving her hair out of her face as she considers actually waking up or staying in bed.]
... Cass? You up?
[her voice is quiet as if a Bat wouldn't wake up at the slightest sound because they're like that.Also, it's that moment before you recall all your dreams from the night before, so that's fun.]

Mm-mm. [ no she's not. or she doesn't want to be. it's half-aware at best, just a sound as she curls up a bit more. she's comfortable and feels safe, it's not like steph's voice is going to startle her awake. ]
Too early. [ never mind the fact it's definitely well past noon ]

Cause I could.
[She laughs lightly, a little thrown off by how familiar and easy this feels, even more than normal. It's not like they've really slept together like this often, what with her mom and secret identities and things like that. And still, it's like... deja vu? Sleepy dream deja vu?]

Hmm. [ she smiles, despite herself. ] Can't argue with that.
[ this really does feel more normal than it ought to, not that she's complaining. just... give her a second for the dream to start clicking. cass finally sits up, stretching. ]
Sleep okay?

Sleep okay?
Oh. [That sounds familiar. Way too familiar.]
Normal dreams are nice. But I had one where I was older and also Nightwing which I guess is kinda normal for us, but also that wasn't the dream I just had... I mean, it was a dream I've had, but my dream now was different actually. Although who knows maybe I was still Nightwing? Every dream could be a dream where I'm Nightwing and I never realized it.
[This is her way of avoiding saying that she had the same dream.]

[ okay. pinstripe three-piece suit, feathered epaulettes to at least pretend to fit the theme--
she had hoped that inviting steph to come along to this with her wouldn't strike as weird. especially with everything that's happened--tim's absence in particular--and considering how inseparable they are half the time.
she hangs out with her through most of the night, trying different activities at the gala. the scavenger hunt, werewolf, the photobooths. after a while they end up back at the ballroom, and without any hesitation and an impish grin, cass takes steph's hand. ]
Dance with me?
