[ Unfamiliar territory is not a very desirable place to be for a man such as he; it involves a great deal of being confused and out-of-sorts, which he prefers to leave out of the picture for as long as he can in distressing circumstances ( Read more... )

[Oi, feel like running across a little girl tending to a campsite in the forest? Because that stew she's making sure does smell good.]

[ NO NEVER except yes, of course. You don't mind an elderly British man in a suit figuratively stumbling onto your campsite there, right, Rangiku? Hope not, because he's making a quick survey of it.

Positively barbaric. 8| ]

[Hey, it's a perfectly serviceable little campsite, with blankets for a bed and a pot for cooking and everything! She just - clearly needs to find some cave or barn or something, because Town Is Dangerous.

...although apparently the outside isn't exactly safe either. There's no denying the quick startled look she gives as some man in strange clothing walks into her little home, but it's quickly brazened out. He's old, she can outrun him if she has to.]

Are you lost?

[ Wise British man approves far more of staying in the dangerous town. He takes another step in, looking around for some form of parent or guardian annnd not really trying to disguise it. ]

I'm afraid so. Can the same be said for you, Miss?

[ ... Blink.

Point one for communication via journal. :| ]

So it would seem. If nothing else, I suppose I shall always have that as a point of comfort.

I'm beginning to suspect I'm a savant for them.

[ Ah, he's being rude. ] Might one enquire after your name?

They're not bad at all, once you get used to them.

[ Helpful crowd around here. ]

Which part might you be referring to, Miss? I'm afraid it all comes as something of an oddity to myself.

I was talking about the journal. It's handy to keep around when you need to get into contact with you friends.

I'm Selphie, by the way. Welcome to Luceti.

You raise a very valid point.

A pleasure, Miss. My name is Alfred Pennyworth. [ Alfred's the name, proper's the game, as it were :x ]

[Have Batman leafing through his journal as usual, scouring for information in town as always. And he stumbles upon this voice entry, that of a very, very familiar man.

He pauses. Utterly stunned. This was something he never would've planned for.]

[He draws up a filter as fast as possible... and oddly hesitantly addresses him.]

...Alfred?

[ Aha, so there is a familiar face to be spoken for. ]

Quite right, sir. [ And he should bloody well be. He'd have thrown in a 'Master Bruce,' but he's not hip to filters or the details of the situation just yet. It wouldn't do to blow a certain vigilante's cover upon arrival or anything 8| ]

[...It is him. Good lord. He knows he shouldn't be happy for him being here. But there's some semblance of relief knowing the one man he trusts absolutely is here.]

...Where are you? I'll come meet you. The connection is secure for the moment, so no one else will know.

[Diana's taking a walk around town when she sees Alfred. At first, it doesn't register that this is Alfred, but when she realizes it's him, she quickly backtracks.]

Alfred!

[ He'll pause and turn to acknowledge the greeting because that's just how he rolls. It would possibly be easier if he recognized the person greeting him. Now he's fairly certain he'd remember if this young woman were one of Master Bruce's numerous past female acquaintances. Or prominent business associates. Or notable supervillains.

Yep. Alfred finds himself in an awkward position this evening. ]

Yes? Can I help you, Miss?

[Unfortunately, Diana doesn't notice that he doesn't recognize her. No doubt it's because of Alfred's impressive butler skillz.]

I should be asking you that question. Did you just arrive?

[ Butler skillz: the ability know simultaneously know everyone and no one. ]

It appears that I've made the fact an obvious one throughout the day. [ If he often expressed sheepishness, this might be where it goes. ]
