[ thirteen; ]

[ Christmas Day dawns and Bruce... realizes he's missing a few days in there. Not much may have been said over the journals when everyone was shrunken, but it's enough to make him realize that the castle has been up to its usual mischief. Luckily for him, though, he didn't have any celebrations planned with the family, which meant he had time to wrap the very few amount of presents he was giving out to people and to finish writing the letters he'd started.

Sometime in the evening (it didn't take him all day, he was just waiting for the shadows in the halls to get longer) he moves out, dropping presents off at doors and looking rather uncomfortable as he wanders through the castle with shiny, wrapping-paper wrapped boxes in his arms. That whatever deities are out there that there's not many boxes.

But that wouldn't mean it wouldn't be somewhat embarrassing for him to be caught, all in black, though not in uniform, skulking through the shadows. And, hey, if you're on his list, means you get your present right then. ]


[ ooc| open in person and for backtagging, since today is christmas and most people won't be around until later. merry christmas, guys ♥ ]

[Guess who else is wandering around, dropping off gifts! Hers are all tucked into a red bag. You know, like Santa's sack. She even has a hat on!

When she spots Bruceaclaus, she stops.]

You are the most festive thing I have ever seen.

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

I don't do festive.

[ He grabs a box from the middle of his small stack raises an eyebrow at her. ]

Would you rather get this now or later?

[batfail.livejournal.com]

[Fishes out a little bag stuffed with tissue paper!]

Depends on if you want this now or later.

[ Enjoy that brief look of surprise, Steph. ]

You got me something? [ Takes it, puts down his stuff so he can open it and then he stares for a moment...

There's a small noise that is definitely Batlaughter there. ]

Thank you.

[sdigubsgiubdgs TOTALLY WAS SWEATING BULLETS UNTIL THERE'S THAT WEIRD SOUND. Batlols :D ]

It's kinda lame but. You know. Cup... dark chocolate. Night. Stuff. Ahaha... you're welcome.

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

[ He gives her one of those barely-there smiles and hands her the box with her sweats in it. ]

You already know what it is, but Merry Christmas anyways.

[batfail.livejournal.com]

[Doesn't open it completely, but she peeks inside to get a look and smiles.]

Thanks, Bruce. Merry Christmas.

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

You're welcome, Stephanie.

[SMILES... not sure what to do, now. Awkward.]

Yep. So...

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

[ SMIRKS and has an idea of how to get some kind of reaction out of her. ]

Try not to eat too many Christmas cookies between now and Tuesday.

[batfail.livejournal.com]

Don't you start with the Fatgirl jokes!

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

... Fatgirl?

[ THAT WAS NOT THE REACTION HE WAS EXPECTING. Maybe he should've mentioned something about eating a light breakfast before training, too. ]

[batfail.livejournal.com]

[Covers her mouth. Wrong Wayne.]

... Um, I mean--I won't! I'm so ready for this, you don't even know...

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

[ sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose for a moment. Oy vey. ]

I'm guessing that's a Damian nickname? If you can call it a nickname.

[batfail.livejournal.com]

Let's not talk about You Know Who right now. Let's just focus on how AWESOME training will be and how... he... hopefullydoesn'tfindout.

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

If he happens to find out before I have a chance to tell him, just point him in my direction.

[ But anyways--! ] Would you object overmuch to Tim or Carrie watching once we get into a routine?

[ Since he doubts he'd be able to keep either of them away from anything having to do with training for long. ]

[batfail.livejournal.com]

[Hnnng. Drama.]

That would be fine. I figured they'd be involved, anyway.

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

They will be, at some point. Probably a few of the others as well. There's things back home that aren't as readily available here that they can substitute and training with them will help with spontaneity and variety.

[batfail.livejournal.com]

However will you find the time.

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

Without the company to run, I've almost got too much time on my hands.

[batfail.livejournal.com]

I'm sure the flock of various bats and birds will fill in the time soon enough.

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

There are enough of you to do that.

[batfail.livejournal.com]

It'll be fun. Like a kung fu movie montage.

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

Except with a lot more bruises.

[batfail.livejournal.com]

My second favorite color.
