Large, green, scaly, scowling, that's the distinct and typical manner of Waylon Jones, known better to Gotham as Killer Croc. His attitude is rarely sunny, and this evening his temper is burying the needle, past murderous rage ( Read more... )

"You can try," Bruce calls after Dinah before a good coughing spell wracks him. In between the gasps for air and the spitting of what comes up, he says very unkind things about the state of the water of Gotham Harbor. "Vampire on the loose, got to find who ambushed me, Tim out there alone...no time," he says to those remaining. "Don't dose me again. I'm fine."

"You're not fine. I'll go help him as long as you're in bed."

Selina stands there, looking down at him.

Stubborn, pig-headed, bullish? These adjectives don't scratch the surface of the Wayne determination. Bruce also is far, far too proud to admit when injury - or worse, illness - keep him from his appointed duty. Which is precisely the sort of thing that has brought them to the current conundrum. He looks up at Selina, eyes watery, and explains in a scratchy, weary voice, "I can't let you out there with some lunatic bleeding people dry."

"Please, Bruce. Don't."

Pressing her lips together, she lets a breath out through her nose, "You think I'm going to let some vampire kick my ass? I'll be fine. Go sleeps and take care of yourself."

A long pause follows. Bruce looks at the monitors, looks at Alfred, looks at Selina and gets to his feet cautiously, weight on the right foot. "Get me in an hour."

Is that a concession? Maybe?

"Very good, sir," says Alfred. Who may or may not decide to stretch the definition of "an hour" for the occasion.

Selina leans in and kisses Bruce on the cheek. She just needs to finish getting changed and she'll be out the cave on a spare motorcycle. Vampires don't scare her at all.

No one accused Selina of being normal in that respect. Bruce tiredly returns the kiss and then makes his slow way up the stairs, adding, "Need to see Cross soon," more to himself than anything.
