*Glances at Stephanie.* You COULD do that, but I'd feel obligated to "sedate" you. *Gestures with her baseball bat and grins.*

::blinks a couple times::
::shakes his head::
You never read my journal. All right. Let me try to boil this down into simple terms.
::drinks half the glass of OJ::
This place, that we are in, right now? This reality? The colloquial name for it is "The Nexus." Tony Stark coined it, I believe. It's a meeting place between dimensions where we have all been drawn.
A Metaverse.
It's powered by two enormous, flowing sources of power. One of them was located underneath the Cyberdome, and the other one exists underneath this building. Precisely, it exists under the boiler room.
The power sources work together to generate reality in this dimension. In tandem. Two opposing, equal forces.
And one of them has just up and vanished.

"Sucks" is a very apt descriptor. Without that opposing source, the Heart of Order, theoretically, the Heart of Chaos underneath this bar should have raged unchecked and destroyed us all by now.
Instead...nothing's happening. And I. CANNOT. EXPLAIN. IT.

No, I read your journal. O made me do it before she let me out of the Batcave when I got here. I'm just- y'know- not freaking out because that doesn't solve anything. It's like how that ACDC song goes.

Maybe your initial theories were incorrect? maybe the heartys have an influence on life in the nexus, but the place doesn't "need" them to continue existing. I mean, what was here bfore the Hearts were created? Who created the Hearts?
Why does this sound like a religious discusion?

Didn't you realize, LeBeau, that under the boiler room of this bar is the only power source strong enough to actually kill someone in the Nexus?
::looks to Stephanie::
You did read it? So. Beauty, brains AND blonde. Who are you, again, and why haven't we met yet?

I'm Stephanie Brown, current Batgirl and all around legacy junkie and I don't know the answer to the last one. Maybe because you spend a lot of time in a high security lab?

Yes, that's probably it.
::runs a hand through his hair::
It's not that I'm advocating full-on panic here. It's just that I don't have the answers for what exactly happened. There were issues throughout the Cyberdome simulation...Essentially I was transplanting the energy from the Heart of Chaos OUTSIDE of where it normally flowed.
I thought I had it perfectly controlled, but something caused it to fluctuate. There was a blackout during the second round that I cannot explain...
