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.

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.

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