001; Audio + Action

audio

[Being kidnapped isn't comforting for anyone, let alone someone as deeply paranoid as Bruce. He thinks of a rogue from Gotham that kidnaps young blondes and call them Alice. They're all mad in Gotham.

He wonders if they're all mad here too.

But he also knows how to mask that paranoia and rely on his public persona as he speaks over the network, choosing to keep to an audio post for now.

My name is Bruce Wayne and while it is unlikely that my name has the weight here that it would have had at home but I figured I would put myself out there all the same. I'm sure you get tired of the same questions over and over again from new arrivals so I'll keep it to just this one.

What's the one thing you wish you had known about this place when you arrived? Advice or information that would have made the transition into Wonderland a little bit smoother, assuming such a transition is even possible, of course.

It goes without saying that you're free to leave more than one thing if you feel so inclined, I'm not going to turn away more information.

Thank you.

[And that's it, that's the post.]

Action

[After exhausting himself looking through the library he's managed to find the bar and order himself a drink to try to take to relax himself. Bruce doesn't remember the last time he felt this on edge -- which is saying something for him because he is always on edge in one way or another. This place seems mostly peaceful so far but it has to be some sort of deception. He was taken from his home, after all. And Gotham may not be the best of places but it is home and he'd like to get back to it. But he knows it won't be that easy, no one would bring that many people here without some sort of ulterior motives in play. They want something from all of them, the only question is what.

He throws back his first drink in one go. He can't imagine the catch is anything good but he has a feeling he'll know sooner or later. After all, there's always a catch. Some might call him cynical for jumping to conclusions like this so quickly but he likes to think he's being realistic. While Clark's death may have restored some well needed optimism to Bruce that doesn't mean he's blind to how cruel and ugly the world can be. He just knows now he has to try to be better than that himself.

What that means for him here, however, remains to be seen.

Faux-me looks like Barbie's sidekick went on a bondage bender.

[Never mind that between all the leather, boots and corsets? Kenzi looks like the black-haired version of that most some days. She'd argue that on her it's awesome, on her face-twin it's creepy.]

At worst? We shave their heads. I think I could rock the Sinead look.

New? [Amusement dancing in her eyes.] I'm guessing we move in very different circles.

[To be fair? Kenzi? Your circles are out there by anyones standards.]

Just tell yourself it's distinguished and own it. Don't be one of those douchebags who dyes it, okay. Very few dudes can pull that off. Trust.

Colleagues? [Her eyes narrow as she tries to imagine what kind of work somebody who looked like Bruce could do, where people who worked with might dye their hair.]

What are you, like a Banker?

[...]

So what you're saying is, your suit is worth more than everything I own.

[To be fair. That wouldn't be hard.]

[Okay. So he's that rich.]

Question. [A very important one, clearly.] Have you ever just, spread money all over your bed and rolled around in it?

See. This is why I would be so much better at being rich than most people.

[Come on, Bruce. Get it together, son!]

Do you have a personal chef? [Yeah this is going to be a game of twenty inappropriate questions about just how rich you are, Bruce. Sorry.]

Maaaan. If we ever get out of here? Can I go back with you? I don't take up much space and I make an excellent dry martini.

If I'm sure of anything, it's that anything can happen.

[Between home and this place? She'd rule nothing out.]

And that Kardashians are like Gremlins.

[Kenzi's guilty pleasure? She may in fact be pro-Kardashian.]

No? They sure do seem to multiply when you add water.

[Oh Bruce. She does like you.]

Touche. [Not even trying to hide her approving grin.]

So what have the wonderful people of Wonderland been telling you so far? Mirrors, Events and Memory Loss, oh my?

[You're officially the first person she's ever tried to be helpful with.]
