[ Streaks of golden kinetic lightning brighten the streets. Within three minutes, Barry's scaled the side of Wayne Tower and skids to a halt along its roof, assuming that that's where Damian is. (He seems like a roof kind of guy.) His Converse shoes still smoke, but at least it's not as bad as it had been in the labyrinth.
Seeing Damian's scratched up face, Barry instantly frowns. ]
Did he do that to you?
[ Seems a little out of character, in all honesty. Thawne prefers his scarring to be psychological. ]
( with a hand raising to shove against his cheek and a scowl on his face. he's a little more beat up than he'd like to be, but that's part of the job. damian recognizes that well enough, especially given the circumstances they'd found themselves in when he'd gotten all banged up. )
It's an unrelated injury.
( which he doubts is surprising to barry, because, well, )
I doubt your fanboy would have bothered with something as asinine as scratching his opponents. Unless the intent had been to irritate you, in which case he would have picked a better target.
