I'm not sure you'd want to live vicariously through me, Miss. I don't exactly get out all that often but when I do I like a few pints at a good pub and a long walk home under the stars.
[ There's a small tear in the sleeve that sees itself through to the skin of Bruce's arm, a messy graze that could have been much worse. He doesn't comment on the bruises but grimaces as he reaches to touch his chest. ]
I might have cracked something. The pain is worse on my right.
[ They're beyond him trying to hide when things are bad, but the instinct is still there especially when he knows he's made Alfred worry. ]
One doesn't always have to be serious partners for there to be comfort. You could just be close and care about one another, doesn't mean you're going to be buying property together or anything.
That will probably be in another month or so, he's really sprouting up.
So far as I know Bruce never made notes when he used to visit his father at work, it was more about him spending time with his Dad than anything. It was only after they died that he started to dig into the company and how it worked.
I swear he's grown taller in this time I've been herer in Gotham.
That's still so impressive. Like, he was so young but taking it all so seriously to make his parents proud. I... There's something I've been meaning to ask you, now we're talking about that.
[His place isn't exactly what most would call 'lovely' and definitely not 'fancy' but it does suit his style, when he came over from London to work for Thomas Wayne the young billionaire had offered to put Alfred up in one of New York's best suites but Alfred couldn't do that. He felt out of place and had instead opted to find his own apartment and just have Wayne pay the rent instead.
When he and Midge arrive he gets the door for her, smiling to himself as he watches her expression when she sees his place for the first time.]
[ Midge looks around and nods to herself. It’s a typical bachelor pad, though the industrial elements are kind of stylish, in a way. It does seem to suit Alfred’s taste. ]
I like it. [ She takes off her coat and hangs it on a hook by the door. ] I hope I didn’t put you out by having to come bail me out tonight.
[On some level, he knows he should have just deleted his texts instead of sending them off. He stews in shame, the kind that only feeds all the ugly feelings willing him to stay in bed and never get up.]
Nothing ever seems to change, if anything it gets more crazy around here the longer I'm at it. I know I came back to the force for a reason, but that never made it easier.
That's the single best slang word for idiot I've ever heard. You know, not a bad idea. I think I might just abandon the apps and go old school though. Stop looking entirely and just let whatever happens happen. How about you, though? Any dating woes to share?
[The ER is crowded when he arrives, and Karen is sitting on a gurney bed in the hallway. Her discharge paperwork is on the bed next to her, along with a bag that has her shirt and some instant cold packs inside.
She's wearing an oversized navy blue scrub top from one of the nurses, which looks entirely at odds with her dress pants and flats. She's typing a text one handed, because her left arm is immobilized in a sling. There's a few other smaller injuries - a cut on her lip, and one on her cheek that looks like it might be on a spot that's going to turn into a bruise.
Glancing up, she spots Alfred and smiles, pointing her phone at him.] Heeeeey! Okay, again I have to say I'm fine. You look weirdly good under hospital florescents, though.
