[accidental video]

[Video opens on Bane, big and hulking and laying asleep on a rather minimal cot. It’s not clear where he is, but wherever it is, it is incredibly dank and dark, with only a dim lantern on the wall providing any illumination. Somewhere, there’s the faint sound of rushing water.

Above the dull background, a small, pitiful meow is heard.

Bane blinks awake, unmoving. For a moment, he lays still, his eyes alert until he hears it again – a tiny, plaintive meow.

Curled up against his arm is the most tiny, adorable kitten. It looks up at him with wide eyes before meowling again.

Very, very carefully, Bane sits up, tilting his head as he looks down at the small creature. And moving very cautiously, he scoops it up with his palm, still staring at it with slight confusion.

And then, very, very, very gently, he reaches down to stroke the kitten’s head with his finger.

The kitten quiets and begins to purr happily.]

Yes. I woke up and she was here. She must have wandered in to this place.

She must have been looking for somewhere to hide.

[video]

[gothams_reckoning]

Perhaps. She is safe here if something is endangering her. [HE WILL MURDER ANYTHING THAT TRIES TO HURT THE KITTEN.]

[He looks scary enough even with the kitty that safety shouldn't be an issue as far as Rita is concerned. Who would be stupid enough to mess with a cat hanging out with that guy?]

That's good to know, but do you have food for her? She'll get hungry eventually.

[gothams_reckoning]

I can procure food for her. [Thank God for minions. Especially when you're a wanted criminal in an unremovable crab mask.]

She will be provided for if she wishes to stay. [The cat reacts by nestling a little closer, purring a bit and swishing her tail.]

[video]

[asdamaged]

Then she'll be okay. Have you thought of a name for her if she stays?

[video]

[gothams_reckoning]

Not at the moment. [Yes.]

[video]

[asdamaged]

Any ideas?

Hrm. There is...the name 'Talia'. [Which he totally picked from thin air, yup.]

[video]

[asdamaged]

That's a beautiful name. You should go with that.

[video]

[gothams_reckoning]

Then I suppose that is what I shall do. ...it would suit her. [As he says it, he starts scritching the kitten's ears. She purrs happily.]

[Rita laughs. It's not fair such a scary looking guy should do adorable things, okay?]

Well I'm glad I was able to help if I did. You came up with that name pretty quickly on your own.

[Heeee :D]

Hrm. It is a lovely name. And she is a lovely creature.
