o3 ☢ but i'm good at being uncomfortable so i can't stop changing all the time
[ as always with a banner post, the opener cues up a half uncomfortable, awkward smile. sincere, but still twitchy. bruce: never going to like public speaking, thanks. ]
I spent some spare time lately messing with my communicator, and I thought I'd share the benefits.
[ more: he's been reminding himself to do this since speaking to ros, but 'the pretty red haired woman with the hungry smile who can't read inspired this' seems a little too much. better to be a bored scientist tinkering with things. ]
I thought it might be useful to have a-- reading function on these things, so to speak. It's not the most elegant job, but I can show my work if anyone else wants to keep going on something a little more structured.
...Anyway. The program I threw together reads text posts aloud. [ in something that sounds a lot like betty's voice, because bruce is a dork. ] I know language barriers aren't much of an issue here, and I can't promise an attached dictionary, but it's something.
[ he hesitates. ]
We're all very focused on the immediate, and we should be. But it might not hurt to add a few more-- non-essential projects to the pile, just to make life a little more comfortable. [ not that he doesn't want to be home-- well, all right, some of him doesn't-- but of all people, bruce understands the need to make something good happen, see tangible and rewarding results for your efforts in between everything else. ]
...Right.
[ the half smile bruce turns towards his communicator is particularly pained, now. there really should be a lost and found okay, so he doesn't have to do something like this to keep from feeling wasteful and more than a little cowardly. ]
Last jump, I received a few things I don't need. If anyone wants them, I'll leave them all in a box outside 006 » 029. First come, first serve.
[ and now his eyebrows draw together. ]
Don't say it, Tony. [ that probably guarantees trolling. reverse psychology for fun and profit, and banner out. ]

We should probably all talk. Briefing?
[ because they've lost people, and they've gained others-- time to touch base. past time. ]

[ bruce? bad at compliments? never. ]
When I first got here, I was the only one who knew-- everything, from my perspective. Memory-wise. [ it's not the same circumstance, but he knows what it's like feeling out of step, and not just in general. ] I'd like that.

[ That's okay, Bruce, you'll learn. ]
No matter which end of the spectrum - too far ahead or too far behind - it's still frustrating, either way. Play catch up or be the catch up. It could probably be worse, though, or so I tell myself in order to feel better about it.

I just hid in my room and pled the fifth. [ his mouth twitches, almost a grin for a second. ] Apparently, I 'suck for that'.
[ tony may have harped on being kept in the dark for a while. ]
