But then again, maybe he shouldn't be. It's starting to occur to him now, with a slow, chilling sense of helplessness, how little he really has to work with here. How little he knows about this part of Bruce's life. For all that he'd asked, pestered, and even begged over the years, the few stories he knows are thin and spare. Absent the lived-in details that would have given them shape. ]
-Wow. Alright, nevermind. [ Well, one thing he's sure of, no kid this age likes a hovering fusspot. Without another glance back he makes quick work of the wall, skipping the grapple and pulling himself up and onto the nearby fire escape. From there he closes the distance in a few neat, fairly unshowy flips, then assumes a perch on the edge of the roof. It's the best spot to deploy the grapple if Bruce needs it. The best spot to try and look as if he's doing anything other than watching and waiting for him to fall.
How old can he possibly be now? Thirteen? Fourteen?
Tim's age. God. ]
