I woke up at 3am from a dream in which I was Robin. Batman and I were investigating the disappearance of one of the guys in my university history tutorial. I had a talk to the professor as Dick Grayson, he was a creepy looking older man with incredibly thin legs and huge grandpa slipper type shoes.
