[22 | Batman's comm | video ]
[ This is a sweeping view of the bay from a roof somewhere. There’s the water, there’s some buildings on the horizon, and there’s the water again. A big, empty, pretty decisively unoccupied space in the water. He zooms in, he zooms out, then stops it again on some seagulls flying through the empty space. ]
...Aand, there we go. Saved for posterity. [ Some suspiciously blue-gloved fingers block the view while the comm settles somewhere more stable, and that’s definitely... not Batman who flips up and over the edge of that conveniently placing railing to perch up on the gutter, there. But the disconnect seems a little lost on him as he offers up a friendly little salute. ‘Sup city. ]
...So, wow. I sure walked right into that one, huh Danny? Nothing like swooping down and seeing... not only the Tower but an entire island missing right of the bay. Personally I think I would have gone the extra mile and set up a few cameras instead of planting a portable one on the punch line, but who knows. Maybe you were betting that I would’ve found ‘ em by now. Thanks, by the way. [ HE’S SO CLEVER. ]
Anyway. Joke’s over. I’m actually in pretty dire need of a bathroom that doesn’t smell like a rendering plant, so I’m afraid I’m gonna need my hideout back before the statue of limitations on hilarious April’s Fools jokes runs out. Or I swear I’m calling your mom again.
...Actually no, scratch that. Donna’s calling your mom. [ there’s a winningly unpleasant smile for the camera. And he’s holding his wrist out while he fiddles with the watch in full view of the comm, apparently to show off some ancient, bright green, garish looking digits. Nine minutes, fifty-seven seconds and counting. ]
...Seriously. Tower’s back before this zeroes out, or you’re sitting in the corner while the rest of us eat ice cream. And I’m throwing the Atari out the window.
[ ooc: so due to Calender Man's April Fool's plot Dick has been canon rewound two and a half decades to his Discowing era! With no city memories intact, since none of that stuff has happened to him yet OH WOE ]

It is not that funny.

You have to admit that it's a little funny. I- What possessed you?
video;
Yeah, I guess that's kinda funny.

I'll have you know this is a one-of-a-kind 1987 model.

It's probably just because we're all wondering why you decided to bring it out of retirement.
video;
This thing? It's not retired, pal, it's brand new. Didn't you see the stopwatch? [ He'll show you again just to be sure Tom this thing is state of the art. ]
video;
You're serious, aren't you?
video;
What about this doesn't look serious?
video;
Everything.
[Oops.]
video;
...And you're saying the- non retired suit's something different?
video;
That's not the thing, though. Do you remember being here?

News to me. [ someone hasn't figured out how to backread the network just yet :c ]
