[ There's something- different in the quality of the salivary amylase that almost coated Dick's body. The only sign of the assailant, who is most assuredly not human. Eaten- eaten, though Dick probably didn't feel it. The cause of death is a pierced brain. Quick, painless.

His hands weren't trembling, but his ears had started to roar the moment he had picked up the boy- the man dressed in his uniform. It hadn't really stopped; just ebbed and rose almost rhythmically. There were breaks. They said he would be coming back; the Porter brought back the dead.

Thomas Blake. Ladd- something. He couldn't remember. He had a list of dead murder victims who came back. It usually took a week. He had evidence but he couldn't remember. He could barely=

[ He blinks at the phasing before sighing. He doesn't take off the gauntlets (or the cowl, for the matter), simply moving over and yanking the batarang off the wall.

Another gaze at her. He probably should ask about the phasing. But not right now. Later. Probably. He'll remember this, anyway. ]

What do you want?

[ Selina on the other hand pushes her goggles up so she can look at him with her own eyes instead of Stark's tech. ]

I wanted to see how you were doing, Bruce.
