Then I will stay.

( even if he - feels a little awkward about it and it's obvious from how he steps back from the window and takes a moment to look around the room itself.

then back to bruce. )

Why are you staying here?

[theknightshift]

[ The easiest answer is convenience. The location is strategic enough that he's able to slip in and out virtually undetected. And the windows on the far side of the room line up perfectly with Arkham and the Tower of Justice. Places of interest he wants to keep tabs on.

But Bruce knows Damian and is well aware he'd likely want something a little closer to the truth. There's just no tactful way to say he wanted to be alone. ]

I'm keeping an eye on the Tower and Arkham.

[ So easy answer it is. ]

( the manor is not that far away. bruce doesn't need to stay here to keep an eye on the tower and arkham, he has other ways of making sure he knows what's going on within both facilities without staying this close to them. but bruce is well-aware of that, too.

which is why damian's face scrunches up, brows furrowed while he tries to pick apart the reasoning for the mistruths. )

The manor is getting dusty.

[ He does not have to question it; Bruce knows where this conversation is going. He sits down, quiet while he gets back to what he was doing before Damian arrived. Giving Langstrom's formula another pass. ]

I'll come back when I'm ready to.

[brat]

Alright.

( because he understands that it means that bruce does not want to come back now, so. damian takes a few steps over to the wall furthest from the window and drops down to sit leaning up against it, knees pressed to his chest and hands resting on top of them. he said he was staying. this is comfortable enough. )
