[He would be absolutely enthused to wake up to bats in a fort tent, thank you very much. And he was certainly no stranger to camping and sleeping outdoors on rocky ground-- it'd practically be like home.
(Rest assured, that evening after dinner, Dick would no doubt set to work constructing a pillow fort in the living room. Maybe he could get Tim to help him, since he doubted Cassandra was home. Maybe even Jason, if the big kid would deign to be around him.)
He lowers his legs through the chandelier dangling ornamentation and kicks them back and forth like he was on a swingset at the park.]
Twenty-six is still pretty old, Damian. [He tried the first name on for size-- a little strange, when he says it out loud, but almost in an exciting way. He looked, for the most part, like his usual cheery self that would do gymnastic tumbles down the hallway instead of hiding in ceiling fixtures. If a bit messy.]
Not as old as Alfie, but he'll get mad if I talk about how old he is. Your hair's probably gonna start falling out next week.
[But rest assured, he'll spend dessert assembling a list of suitable monikers and nicknames for his new partner. It'll be ready by morning.]
