I imagine that all the bats train hard enough that they have that kind of mucle memory, so i was wondering what you think some triggers would be and inconvenient times that it would come out.

I think that having a cape on is a THING for bruce and at a gala he's doing a brand deal and so the brand's stylists give him like a dramatic purple cape bc ✨️prince of gotham✨️ and he keeps fighting the urge to do the batblob thing the whole time that he's trying it on in the mansion and literally CANNOT NOT be batblob, and he ends up leaving it home. "Oh that was the statement peice??? I thought it was a complementary blanket, it was so soft hahaha"

When Rocky discovers how humans can just.. tune people out he is shocked and more importantly very annoyed because he’ll try to get Grace’s attention and half the time he’s just nodding along or just doesn’t answer while he’s doing something

So one day Grace is doing just that, barely nodding along while doing something on the laptop and Rocky has a thought; “loud noises wake up humans while they’re sleeping, could they also be used to snap them into focus?” Rocky tests his hypothesis with a loud whistle, and to Rocky’s utter delight Grace immediately snaps his head up and looks at Rocky with a confused expression.

So he starts using it when he wants Grace’s attention, repeating that same exact whistle with perfect volume and pitch, at first Grace is a bit annoyed but he usually forgets about it when Rocky starts talking, but slowly over time there’s barely a reaction, Infact, Grace starts reacting quicker and without thought.

Rocky, ever curious, sees if he can get Grace to associate other sounds with certain things. He’s sure it won’t work, but he’s bored out of his mind and well. For science!!

So whenever Grace eats, Rocky will make a barely audible clicking sound before hand and Grace doesn’t notice, after a week or two of this Rocky decides to test it out

So when Grace inevitably forgets to eat one day, instead of Rocky annoying Grace into doing it, he just does the clicking sound, he doesnt expect it to actually do anything but low and behold a moment later Grace looks up and says “huh. Hey Rocky I might take a break and go eat, wanna come?”

Rocky has to do everything in his power not to cackle evilly with his new found power

Grace is having a similar problem to Rocky, Rocky cannot seem to just give Grace his full attention sometimes which is fine mostly but.. well. Grace is a little greedy and a little bored, and one day he’s rummaging around in the storage area, opening boxes he’s never opened before and he finds..

A dog whistle!!

He almost goes to blow on it experimentally but then he pauses.

This is a brilliant scientific opportunity!!

Grace has about a million thoughts at once but it all boils down to this: Can Eridians be trained to react positively to certain sounds?
