❝ I know you work for BATTY and all that, but you’re not a narc, are you ? ❞

"What was I supposed to do? Let you die?"

This was weird. Gotham was probably always weird but having this kid tracking him throughout the city was definitely a departure from the last time he'd been there. "Plan on stickin' around me the entire night?"

     { ⛓ } – SUNSET lovingly caressed the landscape of Gotham in warm hues – slowly coaxing its departure and inheritance into the chilling palms of the evening; the more anarchic sibling. One that welcomed unease, frightfulness and CRIME, but wasn’t without its own form of endearment for humanity. It was also an assistant to the Batman, a trusted ally that never betrayed. Another exhausting day trifled in meetings demanded by Wayne Enterprises, left a lethargic exhale, and slumping shoulders to indicate the CEO’s weary state.

Apparel already swapped for more comfortable attire, appearing relatively casual within the manor, quietude was a GIFT in disguise. Absent of clambering reporters attempting to unveil a scoop, or business that required his attention. – So Bruce Wayne THOUGHT. An earpiece tracking transmissions through various stations, upon being placed to his ear, orbited in panicked claims. Of recognition towards one of Gotham’s rogues acting PECULIAR, but more than he regularly was. Joker was always unpredictable, and newfound information didn’t appear that outlandish. But, he wasn’t taking chances. Mimicking his sigh from before, Bruce passed his family’s butler on the way to his hideout.

“ hey -- sorry i’m late.  got kind of tied up at work. ”  she means that literally -- she and the bat are in disagreement on quite a few things,  not least of all @exghul​‘s living arrangements. “ nothing illegal,  don’t give me that look. your dad just has some major trust issues and keeps interfering with my very legitimate business ideas. i brought pizza.  come eat with me? ”
