The Batcave was a rather intimidating place for someone that hadn't been properly introduced to it. Bruce stayed near the dimly lit area near the computer, too nervous to venture out into the formless shadows that echoed with the chirping of bats. They were so loud. The costumes along the wall were back lit, like twisted suits of armor that Bruce didn't understand. White eyes and a black form seemed to glower out from behind its glass. This place really was creepy, who would willingly spend time here? But things he couldn't identify were scattered about, so obviously someone did.

His knees were pulled to his chest, arms wrapped firmly about them as he buried his face. He wasn't going to cry, babies cried, but the thought was a tempting one. The bats fluttered loudly overhead. Aside from the obvious, Bruce knew something else was off. His legs were too long, his hands were too big, and he wasn't quite sure what he was dressed in. It looked like one of the creepy suits but less complete. Bruce didn't dwell on it, his head hurt enough as it was. Keeping his eyes firmly shut, face still hidden, he will that Flash person to come faster.

Things didn't just rust. Not without reason, and magic wasn't a reason. 

Frowning, Bruce prodded at the laptop gingerly. It was entirely feasible that this "horseman" had some sped up rust solution that he...Wouldn't Bruce have seen him release it? He glowered, shooting the other a dark look. If they wished to communicate now, they'd have to actually speak. 

Snorting, he closed the laptop and set it off to the side, ignoring the tug of the rings. If he could only analyze what they were made of...

He showed up again. On the roof. Joker...tripped? How corporeal are these ghosts? Joker tripped, over the ledge. I almost...I almost didn't save him. Lack of sleep must be causing hallucinations, slowed response time. But I thought...I think Jason tried to stop me. His hand was so cold. 

I'm so sorry, son.

I think I saw Jason last night. I haven't had one of these nightmares in years, there was laughter echoing everywhere. There was nowhere to run, nothing to fight, but then Jason was crumpled up on the floor and... Alfred's been peeking in the room every hour, on the hour since then. I think he called Dick, and Tim stayed home from school. I just don't have the energy to argue with Alfred today, not that I ever win regardless. 

The stress is probably getting to me with the latest Joker case, but I could have sworn he was standing at the foot of my bed when I woke up. "Dad." Jason never called me that, ever.  ...I miss him.

Dionysus, heel.  I have a crate of wine and a favor to ask of you.

[locked, hackable if you're very, very skilled]

I think I worried Alfred and the boys. Hell, even Kal was worried, if hovering not so subtlely outside the cave was any indication. I'd been on the phone with Dick when that damned truth virus struck and I think I about gave him a heart attack.  Went into lockdown in the cave soon after and phoned the league. They hadn't heard anything, but I must have sounded like a mellow dramatic teenager when Kal asked what was wrong. He's getting the kryptonite if he says anything.

There was an interesting talk with Dionysus, though. Not pleasant, but interesting and that probably counts for more. Self-revelation and all. I can't meditate with these thoughts stuck in a loop and the quiet is making me restless, so there isn't much to do but spar. I should probably go upstairs sometime so Alfred doesn't bust down the door to check that I'm still breathing but...I guess this is where the selfish side factors in again. I just can't face them right now.

Weather - 37 degrees Fahrenheit, cloudy

Status report - 
Tim - Getting ready for school
Alfred - Lurking...the bastard
Dick - Bludhaven 

I HATE charity balls. I would give twice as much if Alfred didn't make me go. Old, dim-witted women and dancing,  joy. My ankle still hasn't healed yet Shut up, Alfred! I let it rest. so keeping a grimace off my face was a fun little challenge. Especially when they kept stepping on my toes. 

I'm not stupid, they can dance, they just want to get Brucie alone so he'll teach them privately. 

I need a nap before work or I may very well go insane.

 Weather - 27 degrees Fahrenheit, 23 degree wind chill, extremely icy

Status report:
Alfred - Fine, laughing at my expense
Tim - Fine, School
Dick - Fine, Bludhaven

Gothamites, salt your damn roof tops. I was sneaking up on common thugs and, of all the stupid things, I slipped. They didn't know that, of course, and scattered like cockroaches, so I had the fun experience of chasing them down with a sprained ankle through the snow.  Alfred is laughing at me. Well, not actually laughing, but he has a tone of voice that might as well be mindless, hysterical laughter.

Weather: Snowing, 23 degrees Fahrenheit

Status report:
Tim - Fighting to get a suit on
Alfred - Nagging me to get a tux on
Dick - Not so successfully trying to get out of going to a  charity ball
Arkham - Clearly as passive aggressive as Gotham, only quiet when I want out.

December has an annoying tendancy to demand more of Bruce's attention. Charity balls, charity dinners, toy drives, food drives, auctions, and such. I practically live from tux to tux, something I fear Alfred approves of, and disasters seem to stop coming as soon as too much snow on the ground. Mr. Freeze aside. 

If I am forced to sing one more carol, I will stop pretending to be drunk and find the damn champagne. Unfortunatly, my date is here and I must depart. You realize if you repeat the numbers of pi in your head for as long as you can, you get the same vapid look upon your face that any bored socialite would?

Here's hoping Freeze decides to alleviate the December boredom and crashes this charity too. It's no longer a pattern, but an expectation.

Weather: Cloudy, 52 degrees Fahrenheit

Current Status:
Arkham - Joker, Scarecrow, Harley Quinn all loose. Poison Ivy - elevated guard.
Tim - Cross referencing searches.
Alfred - Lurking about somewhere with tea.
Dick - On Standby.

It seems Joker has been found on the dramadramaduck site that Tim found. The situation has two options: shadowed observation, luring him out. For the moment I'll bide my time. One can only assume he's up to another insane scheme of his, so it should only be a matter of time.

Note to self: Cancel all appointments tomorrow, increase supply of laughing gas anti-toxin.

...inform Tim that we are absolutely NOT keeping that damn dog, and that I do NOT need a Bat-hound. This situation is getting ridiculous. 

Also, copyright the prefix "bat-"

Weather: Rain, 45.3 degrees Fahrenheit, wind chill: 31 degrees Fahrenheit

Current Status:
Arkham: Scarecrow loose - activity not reported
Tim: Pestering Alfred
Alfred: Being Pestered
Dick: Refusing all contact. Sources indicate he's secure.

Luthor seems to have stalled his shipment of kryptonite, thanks to the world's largest Boy Scout crashing the party. It's being rerouted through Brazil. Someone should warn Kal, but if the man insists upon poking his Boy Scout nose into one more Gotham affair I may just look away.

Maybe I could make a merit badge out of the stuff. Pray Lex never reads this, Kal. You'd be dumb enough to fall for it. Note to self: File under contingency plan - Kal #32, elaborate later.

Stumbled upon a dramadramaduck site. Tim left it open on the computer and I can only assume he was using the vast social network to better study the human psyche instead of doing his math. He'd better hope that's what I deduce.

Further immersion necessary before any conclusions are drawn.
