Aren't you the charmer. Suppose I shouldn't be surprised when you're 38 and you look like you've been around for long enough to know better.

You won't be too hurt, will you?

[chiropteras]

If you find out anything about me, Miss Frost, it's that I'm fairly resilient.

[telepathic]

I've heard so many say that and so few of them can back it up, Mister Wayne.

Let me guess, you'll be the exception?

[chiropteras]

Well, that would be a bit presumptuous of me to say such a thing, wouldn't it?

[ But he does have scars to prove it so... ]

[telepathic]

It would, but that's never stopped anyone before. Who knows, with an answer like that maybe you are the exception who just doesn't want to brag.

[ Is she teasing, is she trying to get him to do it? Both? The world may never know. ]

[chiropteras]

Guess you'll just have to find out.

[telepathic]

Now you're promising things that involve you getting ahead of yourself.

[ And then: ]

Are you free tonight, Mr. Wayne?

[chiropteras]

Wouldn't be the first time.

I am.

[ He has a very clear social calendar tbh. ]

[telepathic]

Somehow that doesn't surprise me. This is one of those reasons I want to call you coy.

Go out with me tonight. You might have sparked my interest enough for me to want to spend time in person with you. Dinner and we'll see where we go from there? So I'm not being too presumptuous. Despite knowing my own charms.

[chiropteras]

It would be a pleasure, Ms. Frost.

[ He'll leave out how her saying "might" contradicts her asking him out for dinner. Alfred taught him better than that. ]

Do you have anywhere in mind?

[telepathic]

Still new enough that I don't know the best places. Impress me, Mr. Wayne. See if you can guess what I might like.

[ She has like fifty percent faith in him, maybe. ]

[chiropteras]

Alright. Meet me here.

[ Sends her a map and address of a pretty damn good pizza place. Brick ovens and everything. Damn good food and a nice restaurant all around. ]

[telepathic]

You're lucky I haven't had a good pizza in a very long time. I'll see you tonight.

[ Color her like 75 percent impressed until she sees it for herself. ]

[chiropteras]

You will.

[ Hey, let him be a little confident. He's been to enough "establishments" to know Good when he sees it. ]

[telepathic]

[ She doesn't respond to Bruce's text. Instead choosing to let him think about her response until he sees her later. When she arrives she's in a short white strapless dress. She's fashionably late and spots Bruce waiting for her outside. ]

Mr. Wayne.

[ Hellos are for losers tbh. ]
