"go for it then" she smiled at Barbara and handed her the bowl.
"what kind of "field trip" are you talking about?" she raised an eyebrow. "you know I don't do well on field trips....I usually ended up getting "lost" but fortuantly was saved by a cute guy..."

"Awesome..." Barbara took hold of the bowl as Dinah slid it over to her and took a bite of a part of the icecream drizzled in caramel. "Mmm... man.. this... seriously...is.... good. I need to eat this more.." She took another bite for good measure before sliding the bowl back to her blonde friend.
She chuckled. "Getting lost and 'found' by a cute guy every now and then is always fun though." She didn't want to give away too much of what she had brewing in the back of her mind. She knew all it would really take was a call or two to get things set in motion 'officially' anyway. Besides, having another pair of hands... or a third set might prove useful. "Just a... normal, run of the mill 'field trip.'" she grinned, obviously hiding something.
"I'll let you take the first sleep shift. I'll keep guard over you and wake you just before you hit those certain stages..."

"it is very good, thanks for making it for me" she smiled and finished it off. "now how to you expect me to sleep knowing full well that you have something up your sleeve and I am probably not going to like it...." she looked at her with her brow raised
"but I also know full well you are not going to tell me, nor am I really going to have a say in it anyway so what the hell I shall try sleep"

"No problem. I owed you one after all of that boring page turning you did for me earlier. But thanks to you, I've got a nice little book to add to my digital collection. Plus, we got a little bit of added information. Which is always helpful"
Barbara couldn't help but hold her grin. "You know me too well,my friend." she giggled weakly. "You got that right. Think of it more as a bit of a surprise.
"I'll come in to check on you after a few minutes to make sure you're asleep before I start the countdown timer..."

"yeah i'm pretty sure I will be out as soon as I hit the pillow, just don't let the mean boogeyman get me" she smiled
"alright thanks for letting me go first, but don't think you will weasel your way out of sleeping when its your turn, we both know you don't get enough sleep as it is"

"Don't worry.. I won't let the Boogyman get you." she winked back to her. "That's one nightmarish male that I don't want coming to visit me... OR you.... or anyone else."
"Heh... ME? Not sleep? What's that you speak of?" She gave a small wave as she returned the bowl to the sink. "Get some rest... and I'll wake you soon..."
***
Barbara was having an even worse time trying to wake up than normal. If it weren't for Dinah waking her from the last bit of sleep she would have found herself with a two inch blade in her skull.
She was still shaken, but she couldn't let that show.
She took a sip of her coffee as she spoke into her com hazily. "--excellent. I'll have her meet you there in front of the building a bit later then. Thanks..." Cutting the communication, Barbara called over her shoulder to where she thought she saw Dinah's shadow. "Everything's set up! You think you can make it to museum around 10:15....ish...?"

"I can be there, though I'm sure you are still not going to tell me why" she yawned and sat down across from her with a fresh cup of coffee.
"just tell me...am I going to hate this?"

Barbara placed her steaming mug to her forehead attempting to ward off the headache that seemed to be drilling a hole in the middle of her forehead. She slowly removed her mug after a moment, trying to think of a quick, positive way out of Dinah's question. ".......no....?"
She ran the thought through her mind. "...they have a terrific sub shop with killer soups and sandwhiches there I know you'll love.
"Just... promise me you'll try to have a little bit a fun today?"
She had to think again. What else would make her smile? "....they have a REALLY neat gift shop there." she nodded quickly.

"yes well I do like food and shopping" she looked at her wearily. "I just think you are up to something and are trying to distract me from the boring part...well at least its not about technology now that would be a terrifying day...I can deal with old stuff" she yawned again and took another sip of her coffee.
"we are going to need to get a good nights sleep here soon..."

"I COULD send you to tour Microcon's processor chip factor." she said with a half smirk on her face. She knew Dinah's 'love' for all things technological would make the statement all the more funny. "And then I could have sent to the Pear Pod factory..."
Barbara playfully hit her arm. "Quit with the yawning... it's--" She found herself yawning soon after. "--contagious.
"We'll get our good night's rest here soon. This lack of REM is killing me..." she grumbled. "It's either that or.... nightmares that are becoming more and more risky. This... needs to stop soon..."

"NO...if you send me to one of those places there will be hell to pay." she gave her a stern but playful look.
"and if I could stop yawning I would, but I have not been able to get my much needed beauty sleep which is why there is the yawning and why I look like crap." she finished her coffee and poured another cup.
"so we need to find this guy asap so I can kick his ass and get some sleep"

"Heh... and what kind of 'hell' would you end up putting me through anyway...?" Barbara questioned with a raised eyebrow.
She took another sip of her coffee in hopes that it would give her the added energy she needed. Maybe what she really needed was a shower. She pondered. "You don't look like crap. If YOU look like crap, I'm sure I'm ten times worse. So let's not say that.
"Technically... YES. Because something is telling me that he is going to run us into such a state that... I'm not even sure may happen to us in our waking lives."
She pulled off her glasses and examined them before attempting to clean the lenses and sliding them back on her face. "The sooner we find him, the better.
"Well.. you better finish getting ready so you can get to your fun and exciting day of learning and adventure."

"I'd take away your computer and all your electronic devices for a day and see how you like the boring world as you call it" she grinned.
"and fine I will go get ready but I do not promise to have a fun filled adventure at the museum" Dinah finished up her coffee and headed upstairs.
After a few minutes she finally decided on a museum worthy outfit and did her best to freshen up and look the best that she could with little sleep before heading back down.
"would you like me to turn my camera on so you can share in this so called fun filled adventure?"

"aww come now.. you taking away my gizmos and gadgets? That's just... cruel and unusual punishment! Though... if you did take them away and I got to go enjoy a relaxing day at a museum? I'd be more than thrilled to go."
When Dinah returned, she was busy in the kitchen making another pot of coffee. Second pot of the morning.
Things were bad.
She took another sip before sliding Dinah a rather large travel mug she had previously preared. "I made you a little something for the road." she motioned. "That... would actually be a grand idea. So technically, I can go along with you for this field trip of yours." Barbara could only grin.
A field trip was exactly what Dinah would be going on too..

"mmm coffee...Thanks" she smiled and took the mug. "alright I am off to see what fun you have in store for me today" Dinah sighed and headed out making it to the museum a few minutes early.
"so why do i have to wait here until 10:15 and not go inside and get this adventure started now?"
