06: Video: Do tell.

[omar]

Eyyo, Barge -- any of y'all got an extra toothbrush I can borrow? I dropped mine somewhere I ain't all that inclined to try using it again.

[Well hetero life partner anyway. Can they make the bracelets bat-themed?] I'm on the third floor.

[Omar coming, Bruce.]

[And Bruce is waiting in the shadows somewhere. Old habits, you know.]

[omar]

[He whistles a certain familiar tune cheerfully as he strolls up, hands in his pockets.] Got something for me?

[theonlyresponse]

[Farmer in the Dell, huh. Bruce prefers the sound of his prey screaming as they see a giant bat shape descend on them. He takes the toothbrush out of his pocket and hands it over.]

[omar]

Thanks. I takes dental hygiene real seriously, you know. [He pockets it along with the rest -- now up to six, counting his own. It's not ideal yet, but it might be enough if he can supplement with a few things from here and there. His razor, a box of Q-tips he found, some paper from the common room, two screws on the floor of his Hamsterdam bedroom... Yeah, this is coming together nicely.]

[theonlyresponse]

Some floss might help.

[omar]

You know, my warden said the same thing. [And the floss! Thank you, Leslie.]

[theonlyresponse]

Can't be too careful.

[omar]

Oh, indeed. Been having a pain or two lately... this might quiet it down some.

[theonlyresponse]

Best to nip it in the bud.

[omar]

Or someplace, anyway.

[theonlyresponse]

I'll see if I can find more. [He smiles, and then turns to leave.]

[omar]

Hold up. [As long as he's got an ally...] While you at it, could also use something 'bout yea big. [He holds his hands apart.] Like them things you use to serve barbecue, something like that.

[theonlyresponse]

I'll look. Anything else?

[omar]

Don't think so... that oughta be enough to suit my needs. [His need for barbecue tongs. He grins brazenly.] Got an itch need scratching, figure that might help.

[theonlyresponse]

If you need anything else... [He simply holds up his communicator.] don't be direct. I think they monitor these.

[omar]

I told you I'm from Baltimore, man. Ain't no one from there do business on the phone.

[theonlyresponse]

[Chuckle.] I'm usually the one behind the wire.

[omar]

[Omar gives him a long look at that, eyes narrowing thoughtfully. It would be incredibly stupid to admit to that while plotting with a cheerfully self-confessed murderer if he was, say, currently wired. Then again, that's exactly the kind of stupid Omar himself might be if he was feeling bold or pissed off enough.

But this is the better Batman, isn't it? Omar had scrolled through some of the network history after their first meeting, and, well... it'd have to be a seriously long con they're running if they want to fake everyone being so angry with him.]

Funny how things go the way they do, ain't it.

[theonlyresponse]

[At this, Bruce's smile fades a little. Nothing is funny about this situation. He shrugs.] You could say that.
