Don't ask

"Is this place wheelchair friendly?" Bruce asked as he wheeled in, he was covered in paint and it was probably best not to ask why. He was in a stinking bad mood, had a headache the size of America, with as bad music as lower gotham. "Cause I need a shower and homes to far away"

"Flash is better looking" he muttered "Or.......Green lantern" he said grumpily. He looked down a moment "He broke my back"

"He did this to you? That doesn't sound like the boyscout Scotty looks up to," she frowned deeply.

"He did, you can see why I'm not fond of my former protege taking him as a side kick"

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

"Yeah. But at least your protoge didn't become his protoge. You trained Supe's trainer. That's gotta be somethin'," she said hopefully.

"I hope your right" he agreed with a nod "at least maybe he's not being so clumbsy......."

"Can... can I give you a hug?" she asked, blushing slightly.

[broken-weapon.livejournal.com]

"A hug?" he asked "I've not had a hug in..........well Alfred died six years ago.....so six years....." he paused "Sure"

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

She gave him a gentle hug.

"You're pretty cool," she smiled. In his lap Pika stirred with a rumble and moved slightly, joining the hug.

"I don't think I've ever heard that before" he smiled returning the hug, smiling at Pika

"Really? You are the Batman, one of the most famous and admired heroes of all time," she said, grinning.

"One of the most laughed at too.........disappeared after one fight with a guy in his underwear"

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

"No. You're awesome. Underwear-weakness and all," she said, voice so full of confidence it was obvious she'd never be convinced otherwise.

[broken-weapon.livejournal.com]

"You know what. I'll let you believe that mistake"

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

"You're a doofus," she punched his arm lightly.

He gave his best cute little lost boy look

"Dork," she laughed and hugged him again. "You need a girlfriend. And kids."

[broken-weapon.livejournal.com]

"Noooooooooooo way" he said "To either"

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

"Well... a kid. Wolvie always works better with kids. You should have one too. Maybe not one of your own, but just adopting one?"

[broken-weapon.livejournal.com]

"I have Robin. Thats enough"

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

"What's your Robin like?" she asked curiously.

[broken-weapon.livejournal.com]

"A bratty street thug who thinks I don't know he steals" he smiled. "He's smart though, real smart. Just doesn't show it much"

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

She smiled.

"Nice," she said. "How long have you been working together?"

[broken-weapon.livejournal.com]

"About a year, he worked out I was batman and stole the batmobile" he sounded strangely proud.

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

She laughed at that.

"Yeah, I guess it would be better to have him working with you at that point," she said.

[broken-weapon.livejournal.com]

He smiled "He's a good kid........ impressionable but good"
