[ nineteen; ]

[ Bruce has, somewhat predictably, been hiding out in his room all day today. Towards the evening, though, he ventures into town. He doesn't do any window shopping and in fact he looks a little peeved as he makes a bee-line for a flower shop, purchases something and then heads back to the castle.

From there he goes right up to the roof to sit on the ledge and watch the sun setting over the horizon. He doesn't move for a very long time, instead just sitting there and thinking, gently cradling two white roses in his hands.

Bother him if you like, but saying he's not one for conversation at the moment would be an understatement. ]

Thanks for the confirmation.

[SIPS HER COFFEE. Not really bothered, though. She's used to this :| ]

[ Just... goes back to working. Sorry, Steph. Still not big on the whole conversation, being around people thing. ]

[She figures. Don't mind her disappearing for a bit to find a chair, and then plopping it down nearby to watch.]

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

[ He doesn't mind her hanging around or whatever, so long as she stays quiet. ]

[batfail.livejournal.com]

[She'll be uncharacteristically quiet! See, she's capable of it sometimes.]

[ Attagirl. ]

[UNTIL...]

... we're definitely going to need a TV in here.

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

No.

[batfail.livejournal.com]

Radio?

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

Will need to be tuned into the channels the cowl and ear radios are on.

[batfail.livejournal.com]

... a white board. A big one.

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

Why.

[batfail.livejournal.com]

[So she can draw on it, duh.]

It'd be useful for. Stuff.

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

Come up with a better argument and I'll think about it.

[ Since it would be useful for strategizing and organizing thoughts. ]

[batfail.livejournal.com]

Because it would be useful to have a visual aid for plans. Sometimes writing things out is a lot better than typing.

[THERE.]

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

Why a whiteboard specifically and not large sheets of paper?

[ /TURNS THIS INTO A TEACHING SESSION. ]

[batfail.livejournal.com]

[BECAUSE WHITEBOARDS ARE MORE FUN.]

Whiteboards make less of a mess! And, you know, easier to erase and all. Unless we want to be old school and use chalk...

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

Chalk makes more of a mess than whiteboards do.

[batfail.livejournal.com]

[Gets lost in the mental image of beating erasers over Damian's head and him getting covered in chalk. Ha ha ha...]

... whiteboards it is, then!

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

Whiteboards it is.

We need to work on your debate and reasoning skills, though.

[batfail.livejournal.com]

I wasn't aware I'd need to have a debate to get a whiteboard in here.

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

Expect the unexpected.

[batfail.livejournal.com]

Something I need to keep in mind when dealing with Waynes, apparently.

[isthenight.livejournal.com]

... Did something happen with Damian?

[batfail.livejournal.com]

Nothing out of the ordinary. I think something happened to him on Valentine's Day, but he won't spill.
