[ continued ]

I'm in a board meeting.

So yes.

[farcry]

Makes sense why you’re getting me to think about you in the shower now.

Should I feel bad for distracting you, though?

[theknightshift]

That depends on what you're thinking.

[farcry]

[ wouldn’t you like to know. ]

I thought we didn’t talk about these things on main.

[theknightshift]

I can make an exception.

[farcry]

Okay.

In that case, I was debating with myself whether you were the shampoo first or the body wash first type.

[theknightshift]

[ ... ]

You're serious?

[farcry]

Yeah. It matters cus I'm wondering if I'm there with you, in that big shower, do I get my fingers in your hair first? Or down your skin? Do you use liquid soap or solid?

[ can Bruce read the teasing smile on his face? ]

[theknightshift]

[ He absolutely can. ]

Funny that you think I would be concerned about that if you're there with me.

that icon, so CUTE

[farcry]

[ … ]

I’m being considerate because right after I get you clean I’d get you all dirty again.

it's that real smile

[theknightshift]

Shampoo first then bodywash. Since you're so considerate.

[farcry]

Can’t wait to get my fingers in your hair, Bruce, then touch every little bit of you with that fancy soap of yours. Think you could be patient for me?

[theknightshift]

I am patient. Since all I've been thinking about is you.

[farcry]

[ that’s—so surprisingly sweet. ]

Yeah? Been running through your mind nonstop?

I’m surprised I’m not exhausted.

[ badum-tssss. ]

Do you miss me?

[ never did he ever think he’d flirt with Bruce like this. ]

[theknightshift]

[ wow Dick that was terrible. You're lucky you're cute. ]

I do. When will you be back in town?

[farcry]

[ it’s how he gets away with most things, really. by being lucky he’s cute. ]

Wednesday. I’m meeting J for lunch.

[ i.e., he’s working on a case and wants Jason’s intel. though as soon as he sends the text, he wonders if he’s said too much. Bruce will no doubt read between the lines. ]

Why? Thinking about asking me out on a date?

[theknightshift]

[ There is a slight delay in his reply. Probably doesn't help that 'I said too much' feeling Dick is having. ]

Maybe I will. Dinner?

[farcry]

[ not at all. ]

You gotta know how to ask nicer than that, Bruce.

[theknightshift]

[ He almost sends something snide, but decides it's probably better to backspace that if he wants a date on Wednesday. ]

Would you join me for dinner?

[farcry]

[ alright. good enough. ]

Just name the place and the time.

[ how did he get here? Bruce is spying on him. tracked him without his permission, is messing with his case, yet he's angled invitation for a date and is agreeing.

he's more fucked than ever. ]

[theknightshift]

[ Possibly even more fucked after Wednesday. ]

I'll make the reservations and send it to you.

[farcry]

[ it looms over his head already. ]

Full service. At what cost?

[theknightshift]

It's on me.

[ Or on Dick. If he feels like he can't escape Bruce's looming presence. ]

[farcry]

[ haha. very funny. not. ]

You know what a date is, right, Bruce? It's different from an interrogation.

[theknightshift]

I don't plan to interrogate you. It's dinner.

[ Maybe ask a series of strategically placed questions to ascertain the nature of his lunch with Jay. But definitely not an interrogation. ]
