01st Strike | Audio
[Ever since arriving, Bruce has spent the better part his time here trying to decide how best to handle this situation. He's long since shed his costume and put it away on the lower floor of his suite. Best not to put that on for a while. After, he combed through the suite (yes in his underwear) and tried his radio with no success.
That's when he spots the console.
When Bruce activates the voice function on his console, he's putting away the Batman voice, in order to sound as innocuous as possible. He has no civilian clothes and he would really rather not have the Batman associated with him. It's bad enough the kedan saw him in costume. He needed to put some distance between himself and the suit as quickly as possible.]
My name is Bruce and it seems I've lost my shorts in the water. [Embarrassed laugh.] Would someone mind letting me know where I could find some clothes?

Wait.
What?]
That's the first time I've heard of that.

[Hi, hello. Who are you?]

Even when Bruce is keeping up his playboy billionaire cover, there's always a familiarity in his voice when he speaks to Dick. And it's not there.
In any other situation, he'd switch to video. But clearly it's a bad idea right now.]
Guess so.
Anyway, welcome aboard the S.S. Flying Turtle.
audio
Oh it's a Flying Turtle. Well, this is probably the most luxurious vacation I've ever been on.
audio
Too bad most familiar faces are back home, right?

You-- ['Don't recognize me at all.'] -- need any restaurant recommendations?
audio
That would be great, actually. Thanks.

[A few typing sounds later and then a ping.]
[Normally he'd be chattier. He joke or tease or add in extra useful information. Right now? He's trying not to feel overwhelmingly homesick and incredibly lonely.]

[He keeps his tone level, in spite of himself.]

[A pause.]
Good luck... with everything.

[As cheerful as he sounds, Bruce can't help but feel like he's said something wrong in this conversation.]
