I suppose I am be grateful for the sudden kidnapping when it came.
It could not have come at a better time.
But I wonder how many were brought here to escape their lives rather than the immediate situation at hand?

My name is Bruce Wayne from Gotham. I doubt there are any here from my city, but if you are, please contact me.

I also have a question for anyone reading this: is the Friendr application truly useful? Does anyone find suitable friends that way, or is it best to find them the old-fashioned way?

Thank you

[He almost replies that no one can force him to do anything but he's trying to be personable.]

The name is quite misleading.

[Half truth.]

You may not wish to speak with me after.

[bruceno]

Your intentions seem to be staying on friendly terms, so then don't tell me
That is fine with me

[sweetlies]

I'm certainly trying to be.

[He thinks over it a moment and then send another text.]

If you think it won't change your mind about talking with me, I'll make the exception.

[bruceno]

I can't imagine how it would affect me
So by all means

[sweetlies]

You may find yourself having to tolerate my company.

But we are Aristocrats of Evil or Villainous Nobles, if you prefer. I police Englands underground.

[bruceno]

I can see why most people disagree
Exactly what part of your organization's name is misleading?

Because it seems rather and black and white to Bruce who is, at this very moment, fighting against an elite council of puppet masters pulling every string that holds Gotham upright.

[sweetlies]

We are not 'evil' exactly but our actions can be construed as evil. If clearing out illegal drug operations or gun smuggling requires a few deaths, so be it. Scotland Yard doesn't quite agree but the Queen's orders come first.

[bruceno]

So you do what you believe the authorities cannot
It's understandable

[ Although Bruce can't say he condones the triviality of death for the greater good. The Council believed his parents' death was for the greater good as well. Bruce, frankly, disagrees. ]

And the "misleading" name
Is that for dramatics then?

[sweetlies]

Sometimes they really are just entirely incapable. And it's technically the queen determining them incapable.

[He just doesn't disagree.]

In part and because what we do really no one in polite society approves of.
