Some things just couldn't or didn't want to be contained. Some things just needed to be loose and wild. That went for humans and animals alike. Especially so for people like them who didn't enjoy being confined and constrained, even if Clark shoved himself into those boxes anyways.

He looked up towards the sky.

"Sure. I can keep an ear out for anything if that makes it better. Honestly, if you think you'll be okay, we can just go up. Getting even a little further away from the city can really bring out the night sky."

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎THERE'S A PAUSE, contemplating. maybe it was just the bat training, making him feel the need to never leave the city he claimed to protect. clark would be listening - stepping away for a bit might do him some good, even. it usually did, anyway.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎giving a small nod, blue eyes moved from the sky to the man next to him with a warm smile. “ if you've got an ear out... i wouldn't mind going to the farm. it's been a while. ”

let me know if you need water, food, or just me.

She breaths out a soft chuckle that was just loud enough to hear on the other side. Always the charmer he was. 〝  I may have to take a rain check on that, if you promise I can cash it in at another time.  〞 Her smile softens, she leans back in her chair and stares at the many screens that projected before her. Her mind was in fifty different places right now. The Birds were in Italy, supposedly keeping up their search for former mafia bosses who had decided to take refuge, but the Oracle had often found them in the finer areas of the cities. Cass was struggling with another task she'd set out for her. One focused on the investigative side over the physical. Tim had been sent to help supervise and she hoped he could let the other Bat do the work without much interference. The list was, unfortunately, endless.

〝  Dad dropped off food earlier today, water is endless, and you . . .  〞 she pauses, 〝  need to get some rest yourself. I know you've been out later lately, Dick. Even for you. Care to tell?  〞 She waits patiently, staring at several folders she had indicating cases in Bludhaven. Unsure of which had his attention the most or if there was something else stirring that not even she had foreseen.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎HE'D REALIZED A LONG time ago that there were very few things in this world he wouldn't do for babs. just talking on the phone with her helped after a long day, or a long night - just about anything, really.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎tonight had been an earlier night back, or at least... earlier than it'd been in a while. closer to what was typical. dick should've known better than to expect her to not see right through it.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎taking off his domino mask, it was set on the counter before he got to work on his boots. one was chucked off, phone balanced between his ear and shoulder. “ just bludhaven. i've been staking out a warehouse towards the edge of the city. ”

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎there wasn't enough hours in the day. “ you can cash it in anytime you like though. think some quality time would do me just as good as some sleep at this point. ”
