I'd like to know if he's using the tunnels. There aren't many of those, and if he is, we may very well run into him. And if we do meet in person, I don't think we can plan on running.

[Royce might have a chance, if he were alone - but even then, he's malnourished, and Bruce hasn't been around long enough to lose too much of his muscle mass. But Alfie? Alfie's ill and in pain, and he's pretty sure that if it came down to a chase or a hand-to-hand fight, Bruce would have no trouble besting him.]

Long-range weapons. If he does come upon us and he's insistent on making trouble, things I can throw will be the key. This would be a good time for you to teach me more about your knives. I can stab with 'em, fine, yeah, but from a distance--

[bywolves]

[ Royce scowls. Like hell is he leaving Alfie behind, either, so. They'll fight together. ]

I can teach you. When I have the ability to. [ He knows he won't be able to muster up the energy, sometimes. ] I'll protect you from him.

[devoutish]

I know you will.

[And because he's not entirely sure that the possibility won't come up, he adds:]

I won't be giving him anything as a conciliatory gesture. Nothing that I've gathered, and nothing that I've stolen.

[bywolves]

Good. He doesn't deserve anything.

[devoutish]

[He's just glad they're on the same page.]

Thank you.

[He puts his hand on Royce's, squeezing.]

For protecting me.

[bywolves]

[ Royce takes that hand, still scowling a little, though it's not directed at Alfie. ]

You don't have to thank me. [ Sniff. ] I'm always going to do it.

[devoutish]

At least it's something interesting.

[Alfie murmurs, trying for a weak joke.]

Eh?

[bywolves]

Mm. [ He guesses. His grip tightens. ] Not sure I like interesting in this place.

[devoutish]

Just think how satisfying it'll be when he fails.

[bywolves]

Not satisfying enough to risk the encounter. [ He scowls. ] We're going to stay away from him. We only fight if we have to.

[devoutish]

I know, Royce; I agree. Only if we have to.

[bywolves]

[ He hrmphs. Fine. ]

[devoutish]

Gonna bother him on the network a bit, though.

[He adds quietly.]

[bywolves]

That's fine. You heard me harassing him. [ Bruce doesn't know where they are. He can't do anything. ]

[devoutish]

Mmmm.

[He sounds approving.]

Yeah, I liked listening to it.

[bywolves]

He's an idiot if he thinks he's going to be able to arrest people, is all.

[devoutish]

Nothing I don't already know, mate.

[bywolves]

[ He's just going to rest his head against Alfie and listen to the rest of Alfie's conversation, then. ]

[devoutish]

[Good friend. Good cuddles while he taunts a superhero.]
