Caritas- Thursday

Kitty had been in her office working and hadn't planned on staying any longer than she needed to, but she was called out early when Tino came in for the night and complained that the bartop was fluffy.

And sure enough, the bar was covered in some white, soft, fluffy material. Neither of them had any idea how it got there or when it would go away, and Kitty decided to stay behind the bar for a while to see how this went when it had to be a surface for drinks.


[Open and OCD-free! I said I was gonna post literal fluff, and this for some unknown reason is the first thing that came to mind.]

When you were maintaining a secret identity in a small town, it was a bad thing to suddenly change and end up as, say, a French Revolutionary for too long.

It was maybe slightly worse to rapid cycle through possible histories, though, even if it did cover your secret.

With that in mind, Bruce walked into the bar and took a seat. "Good evening. Could I get some coffee? I'd go to the Perk, but *yawn* it's too far away."

It seemed that instead of dealing with childhood trauma by becoming a dark avenger of the night, Bruce instead became afflicted with crippling narcolepsy.

"This bar looks so comfy."

Yep.

"Sure. It's not the fancy kind here," Kitty warned. "Long day or something?"

"Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz," Bruce snored. His head was already on the fluffy bar.

"Uh. Bruce?" she said, reaching to gently shake his shoulder.

"Gah. Sorry, that's been happening a lot lately. You know how it goes," Bruce said, after waking up.
throughaphase: (considering)

"I don't, really," Kitty said, but she got him his coffee pretty quick. "Are you sleeping at night?"

"I sleep all the time," Bruce said. "You know that I've always been narcoleptic. It's one of the things everyone knows about me."
throughaphase: (huh)

Kitty frowned. "Oh. Of course. Must make things... difficult."

She didn't think Bruce would be joking, but it was Fandom.

"As long as I mainline caffeine, I'm able to manage it most of the time," Bruce said. "This is why I usually employ people to nudge me awake. I haven't been able to find them the past day, though."
throughaphase: (curious)

Uh huh. "I'm sure they'll turn up," Kitty assured him. "How long has this been going on?"

"Since my parents were murdered when I was eight, of course," Bruce said.
throughaphase: (surprise)

"That's... Oh my god, that's really terrible," Kitty said, frowning. "Also a really long time to be tired."

"You get used to it," Bruce said. "It doesn't keep me from running Wayne Enterprises, after all."
throughaphase: (about to speak)

"Because of the people hired to keep you awake?" Your AU life made Kitty sad, Bruce.
