For the LJ community fanart50 prompt 'New Place'. Set during their short time together in Bludhaven in the 'Fresh Blood' arc.

Ah, Tim/Cass - the pairing that I am still waiting for in DCU. While not everyone will agree with this pairing, I personally enjoy it immensely. You see, Tim is so serious that I think he needs someone who is even more serious than he is to make him see the lighter side of life. It seems like The Powers That Be also flirted with the idea of pairing these 2 up a few times, but given recent comic developments... well, I'm hoping that they can at the very least be friends again first.

Cass here is officially the first woman I've drawn in years. I hope that doesn't actually show! I based her look both on Ale Garza's run of Batgirl as well as a bit of myself. The untameable hair, mostly. My ego isn't that big, yet XD;;

Much thanks to amei, a wonderful artist in her own right, for suggesting that I have the capes sweep rightwards. By doing so, I avoided having to cover Cass up behind Tim's cape.

It was hard work, both pencilling and inking this, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed working on it.
