[i]"Phoebe, I am your father"[/i] 

Phoebe wasn't too sure if she stood there staring at him for hours, minutes or seconds. Her thoughts whirled, as she tried to formulate a response, tried to think of anything.

Never had she felt more like a child, as she looked up at him. She swallowed, trying to maintain composure. "Well" she said with a shaky laugh, "that's a pretty damn good reason" 

What did one do, in something like this? She had imagined many different scenes over the years in the orphanage, about how she would react. But how did one react when Bruce Wayne said he was your father? 

Like if anyone else had said that. She swallowed again, took a deep breath, then smiled, and found herself hugging him.
