You've proven yourself in battle once. I think you can handle a little more, but...

[ He almost can't believe he's going to say this. ]

You can try on some armor in the cave. There might be an old costume you can borrow.

[ Secretly, he hopes this doesn't qualify as an invitation to join the ranks. Even if Rapunzel can hold her own when the going gets tough, she'll need the level of protection a kevlar-lined costume can afford. ]

Come on down.

[ With his glass still in hand, Dick heads for the grandfather clock and leads Rapunzel down the stairs to the central Batcave. ]

Don't expect a trip to the assassins until later tonight. Or hell, even tomorrow night if you need time to mentally prepare.

Whatever the case...

[ Dick leads Rapunzel to an elaborate set of cases along a wall, each case containing a costume suspended for display. There's a Batman costume Dick hasn't worn, older, darker, and charred. Other costumes, lacking cowls and somber colors, bore an 'R' symbol. One broke the mold for having a blue bird shape, but who knows what that's about?

One 'R' costume seems shaped for a female wearer, and it's in front of this costume where Dick stops. He opens the case and steps aside so Rapunzel has room to appraise it. ]

This belonged to a friend. Seeing as she now goes by Batgirl, I don't think she'll... bat an eye if you borrow this.

[ It's the old Robin suit of Stephanie Brown, with some upgrades in case she ever thought to reclaim the mantle. ]
