Bruce smiled softly. "She's exactly like you, but also exactly like me...I think our daughter is perfect. I'm glad you told me." He said, turning to hug her.

"Your not mad that I hid it for this long?" Lori asked blushing softly hugging him back nuzzling her head against his chest.

"I wish you had told me sooner, but I understand why you didn't. No, I'm not angry." He said, bringing her chin up so that he could kiss her.

((They're gonna do it, so should we skip...?))

Lori blinked and then kissed him back blushing as she so d her arms around his neck.

((That depends do you want her to tear him a new one? For leaving again)).

((No, no, Wolfie means Timeskip. Like, to morning, after they do it.))

((Sorry I can't read half asleep with a large cat paw in my rib T-T and she just drooled on me.))

Lori woke the next more curled against him. She yawned and snuggled closer "best night ever." She grinned.

((lol you should probably get some sleep.))

Bruce wrapped his arms around Lori and smiled. "I agree. Are you hungry? I could try to make something." He offered.

The next morning, Gemini woke to find a puppy laying on her stomach. She giggled and got up to feed him, thinking that she would have to take him on a long walk after breakfast.

"I am hungry but not for burnt stuff." Lori teased him and stretched escaping his warmth to make food. "What do you want?" she asked rummaging threw the fridge.

((Jokers kinds of in the hospital I could do other bad guys.))

((lol true. Don't worry about it, Gemini is gonna visit Lori today, and then maybe we can skip to when Joker gets out...again.))

Bruce shrugged, pretending to have his feelings hurt. He knew he couldn't cook. "I don't know. Whatever you make will be fine." He said, not able to keep up the act for long.

Lori started to make breakfast mostly pancakes and bacon. "We'll what if I said I had wanted your flesh?" she teased letting her eyebrow's wiggle suggestively.

Ivy sat in her forest watching the children she kept with her patrol the edges of the old park. No one dared enter the forest with her there. At the same time Harley checked on Joker sighing at how hurt he was.

"Then I would say that you'd already had some of that." Bruce said, getting up to stand behind her.

After eating, Gemini hooked up her puppy and headed out for a walk. She decided to bring him to visit Lori, but she had to go through Ivy's forest to get there on foot. Getting to the outer limits, she looked up and sighed. "Hey, excuse me!! Can I go through? I'm going to visit Lori." She figured Lori's name would help a lot in this situation.

Ivy appeared having been in the tree above her. "Of course if you are a friend of Lori's touch nothing. Don't let the puppy touch anything or pee on anything or else." Ivy glared and started leading the way.

Lori blushed softly "True." she leaned back against him. "But I could never get enough of you." she smiled up at him.

Gemini rolled her eyes. "Lucifer will behave, I promise." She said, following.

Bruce wrapped his arms around her. "I know what you mean." He said.

"Good." Ivy took a short cut and let her out of the forest. "I trust you can find your way from here." she vanished grinning.

Lori relaxed in his arms "if your not careful I won't want to make breakfast but do a little kissing instead." she warned smiling softly.

"I can, thank you." Gemini said. Lucifer barked his thanks, and they headed off towards Lori's place.

Bruce chuckled. "While I wouldn't mind some kissing, I think we should eat first." He said, pulling away so she could concentrate.

Lori set the food out and kissed him briefly before she sat down digging in with gusto.

((Is John going to get me tomato?))

((As far as Wolfie knows, yes. Also, she found out that the cover charge is 10 dollars.))

Bruce sat down and started eating, being a bit more polite about it.

Once she reached Lori's place, Gemini rang the doorbell. It had occurred to her that her friend might have...company.

((K as long as you "know" that's fine...what am I covering? *slightly creepy grin*))

Lori sighed and opened the door. "This had better be PUPPY!" Her sentenced derailed by the cute face. "So cute. Know we all have pets my often street cat, Bruce and Ace, know you have him." She hurried and fetched a soft plain cookie. "Aunties going to spoil you."

(Eh...eh...DON'T KILL WOLFIE!! *Hides* Oh, by the way, Wolfie is finally catching up on Pandora Hearts.))

Gemini laughed at Lori's reaction. "I thought you'd like him. His name is Lucifer, I just got him yesterday." She said. Meanwhile, Lucifer took the cookie happily and gobbled it down, then gave Lori kisses. "I think he likes you, too."

((Hurrah to bed))
Lori giggled as the puppy licked face. "Isn't he cute Bruce." She totted the puppy over for him to stare at the face. "What do you think Maleficent?" She asked her black cat who had appeared from the window.

Lucifer barked and licked Bruce's face repeatedly. When he saw Maleficent, he wagged his tail and tried to get down to play with the cat. "Careful, Lucifer. Maleficent can be a bit testy sometimes."

Bruce blinked and shook his head. "He's a cute puppy. Maybe a little bit hyper, but I suppose not all dogs can be as calm as Ace." He said with a shrug.

"Poo on you." Lori pouted at him. "I think you forget your bat hound wasn't always so calm." Maleficent sauntered over stared up at the puppy with a huff she settled into her bed deming the puppy ignorable.

Bruce shrugged. "I suppose." He said. "Maybe we can have them meet sometime. I think Ace gets a bit lonely."

Gemini nodded. "That would be fine with me. Lucifer seems to like company." She said, while Lucifer snuffed and turned away from Maleficent. Clearly, they wouldn't get a long.

"Oh Mal don't be such a snob." Lori sighed. "Well we'll have to get together with Lucifer and Ace sometime swing by and we can talk about it." she was pushing Gemini out as she talked.

Gemini held up her hands and stepped away from Lori. "Okay, okay, I get it. We'll be going now. You enjoy your breakfast...I want details later." She whispered the last part, her tone indicating that she knew what had happened the night before and wanted to know all about it. Then she took Lucifer and left.

"Your friend is perceptive, although maybe a bit...outspoken? Blunt? I'm not sure how to put it, but she doesn't hold back anything." Bruce said, thinking that Lori had that in common with Gemini. Neither of them spared any feelings when they spoke.
