testing a bb Bruce

[promisetokeep]

I'm...flattered.  That you would consider me an option.  

[The sounds of a child who wasn't flattered, but pretending to be for the sake of common courtesy.]  

But I simply don't have time right now. I have things to do. Important things.

And, besides, Alfred will worry.

[There was also the part where Alfred was...sometimes slightly intimidating. Particularly when Bruce sensed a lecture coming on.]

I can always count on you for that.

[Hey, someone needs to intimidate him sometimes or else he might FALL OFF ROOVES or something equally ridiculous that people shouldn't have to be warned about.]

Always. So long as you don't keep getting yourself into trouble anyway.

[ONE TIME, Alfred. That was one time!]

I'm not sure that's a promise I can keep. Or make.
