001; audio-video

[ This is Bruce Wayne's voice. Cheerful, foppish, and the audio itself is somehow unsteady as though he can't decide how close to his mouth to hold the device. Apparently his default is too close, because--well, you'll see. He speaks like he's called someone specific. ]

Um, hi there. I bet I mess this up somehow, send it to the wrong number - something like that - but I don't really know that many people here, and... Well, this is embarrassing, actually--

[ At this point he bumps the video feature on with his chin, and it records a swathe of his jaw. ]

Do you know how to cook?

[ He's squinting into the camera, super close when he draws the device back, so that only his left eye and a swathe of slightly too-long hair falling over his forehead is visible, and then that eye narrows and the feed shuts off. ]

These devices are poor communication tools at the best of times, yet you did little to aid your situation, ser.

[chiroptophobic]

I guess so. I did manage to get through to him too, but you know how it is. [ A smile. ] Have you had much trouble with them?

[bruxisms]

[ Have you had much trouble with them. A simple enough question to be sure. Yet... one that posed a specific problem of its own. ]

It... could be said.

[ After all, it was rather difficult to learn how to use the "capslock" key... ]
