Why was praise such a weird thing for him? It wasn’t like he TRIED to have this strong a reaction of… dislike. The act of being praised, specifically by his father figure made him want to hide simply put. He was 43 years old and all he wanted to do was hide. He shook his head, snorting at his own foolish feelings. If Damian saw him like this, hell if DICK saw him like this he would have been highly amused. All the things he’d fought and the feats he accomplished.<br/><br/>The hardest part was letting someone in.<br/><br/>The lights of Gotham City whipped by. It was time to go home and the autopilot would take him there without any guidance or action on his part. His shoulder ached, an old injury from a fight with the Joker that he never properly recovered from. His hand slid to one of the compartments in the car the RFID chip unlocking for him. A med pack was waiting that he opened and fished four pill out. He popped them one by one into his mouth chewing as the batmobile raced out of the city limits.<br/><br/>The high-grade medicine hit his blood stream and he sighed. The ache dissipated as did the other various pains going on inside of his system. You could only be used as a punching bag for so long. Eventually your body would catch up and protest. His body wasn’t so much protesting, it was dying and trying to make every second hell for him. Addiction, he was flirting with it but the drugs kept him going. He couldn’t stop, not when the mission wasn’t done.<br/><br/>The car roared it’s turbines shooting twin gulfs of fire as he reached the ramp leading to the lake. The whole car jostled as it hit the ramp sending him catapulting up as the lake’s doors opened and water fell through. Technically he could have used the manor entrance… but he wasn’t quite ready to move in yet. Instead he gave the master bedroom to Dinah to use until he was ready.<br/><br/>The batmobile hit the ramp and he went through the tunnel system. Instead of turning to the lake house he was living in however he twisted the wheel to the right and rode through to the bat cave under the manor.<br/><br/>“Alfred.” Bruce called as the bike burst out of the tunnels and came to a stop in the Manor Bat Cave. The manor bat cave was built with the Justice League in mind. During the renovations he made sure to include a prep area for everyone, a armory that had room to spare. "Where are you? Don't tell me our new guests are already acting up?"
