barbara @gotham1tes asked, " who does this guy think he is? "
" that is a very good question. " bruce tilts his head while they watch the streets of gotham below. his gloved fingers flex ever so slightly, as if already going through the motions of whatever is about to happen. with no data to go on, all he can anticipate is what a general fight with one of the town's villains will be. maybe not the same degree as joker, who's become predictable in his unpredictability.
by all accounts, it looked like a simple smash and grab. threw a brick through a window, stepped through, and grabbed all the cash out of the register. they were closer to the high rises, so this store didn't have a gate or a rolling door to prevent anyone from thinking about doing just this. while that gave him hope that they were doing something to give the people confidence he also wished that, sometimes, people would be more prepared.
" let's go find out. if there's a new player in town we need to know. " without looking back, bruce takes a step off the roof of the building they'd been watching from across the street. after a few feet he holds out his arms so let the air catch his cape, letting him float the rest of the way down.
