001 VIDEO:
[ A woman in white was reclined out across one cherrywood legless chairs that came standard with the more ornate Fire sector suite decor. Despite being in a state of repose she still managed to radiate with a severe, cagey quality to her character. ]
I'll let the rest of you go over our shared displacement ad nauseam until anything useful comes of it. Right now I need anyone good with a computer [ Jarring to her elegant appearance the woman loudly cracks her shoulders and she stretched them to an uncomfortable angle to work out a painful kink in her joints. ] -or a brain surgeon. After I threw those poor kedan off the cart that brought me here.
[ She clicks her tongue as if realizing that sounded unsavory. ]
They're unharmed, but I think I overtaxed myself in the confusion.

[Remember this loser? No? He remembers you, missy.]
Welcome back, I guess?

Sorry I- [ Miranda tilted her head and strained her vision. ] -I don't know you.
[ Sounding genuinely confused which was a feat in and of itself, Miranda only stared at the boy as if he were a new alien species. ]

It's okay, it happens sometimes. I don't know how or why, exactly. [He has theories, of course, but he also doesn't want to seem like he knows too much.]
My name's Dick. You used to work for my dad's company, Wayne Enterprises, when you were here before. You thought I was really cool and let me help you in the lab.
[That last one is a bold-faced lie and Miranda can probably tell.]
video;
I- what? Who is your father, and why exactly are you so certain I was ever here before? It's been a long day, but I exhausted not brain damaged.
video;
Bruce Wayne, head of Wayne Enterprises obviously. It's mostly pharmaceuticals. And if you don't believe me about being here before, check the network archives. Or ask Bruce.

I'll try for both and see where that gets me.

Okay. [He says it in that obnoxious, almost sing-song way of someone who believes he's right.]
Do you need any painkillers until you find your surgeon?
video;
But...thank you.
video;
No problem. I'd fill you in on everything but it's probably not a good idea if you have a migraine. Trust me, this place is weird.

[ She rubbed the back of her neck - wondering if her next question was something she even in wanted answered. ]
Will you tell your father I'm in the neighborhood? I'd imagine he'd want to see me.

[Of course, Bruce is a Bat-stalker so he probably already knows.]
Anything else I can help you with right now? Aside from brain surgery.
