Cissie watches her, and her heart aches. She doesn't want to hurt her, that's the whole point of this conversation, but here she goes, putting her foot in her mouth and screwing it all up, like she always seems to do. She scrubs at her face, and makes a frustrated noise.

"I'm sorry. I'm messing this all up. I just wanted to... I'm not good with first impressions, my best friends all basically hated me when we met... And that also has nothing to do with anything, and I'm babbling like an idiot." Cissie shakes her head, grimacing.

"Steph, I'm sorry. I just wanted you to know... I know some things. That I probably shouldn't. Some of it because of Arrowette, and a lot of it from Wonderland, honestly, but some of it because if you didn't know Superboy died, then you're from a few years ago, from my perspective. And--Tim Drake was with me, in Wonderland. And he was still about fifteen, there."
