stephanie

charlotte
...

stephanie
look we've both been where you are
when i was sixteen and started dating tim i got dragged through the mud for my father's past and was called every variation of blonde bimbo under the sun

bernard
exactly, and the day tim and i went public pretty much the entire media tried to tear us apart and break us up. literally i got slurs painted on my apartment for three weeks.

charlotte
none of this is making me feel better.

stephanie
okay but now i'm with cass and the media doesn't care

bernard
and the scandal of tim dating a boy that was in a literal PAIN CULT was overshadowed by a joker attack after a month.
the tabloids are all looking for the next story - if you just ignore it and don't give them that they'll sink their claws into the next scandal

stephanie
just power through and you can lean on any of us if you need too

bernard
we're always here

stephanie
and text damian back
he's really worried
