[ Yeah, it's the flourish thing. Rupert would absolutely roll up his sleeves if he wasn't wearing his FALLED RISEN HEROES t-shirt, so instead he settles for an elaborate flick of both hands as he grandly feels out the edges of his portal with theatrical carefulness. Could he do this normally, with minimal fuss? Absolutely. Would he enjoy it as much? Definitely not.

But the portal he rips isn't a portal to Maurtia Falls but somewhere else entirely; reality peels away to reveal a disgustingly luxurious penthouse suite, empty and immaculate, overlooking a city skyline. Rupert smugly tucks his hands into the small of his back. ]

You'll notice it's not home, of course, but it is the most expensive hotel room in De Chima, [ He explains with absurdly boyish glee, bouncing a little on his toes in restless anticipation. ] I hear that even Bruce Wayne can't afford a night here. [ Lies, probably, but Rupert doesn't care. He grins. ] It's one of my favourites.

[ The cream and gold suite excessively luxe, but Damian had said 'impress me' so it's all his fault really! Rupert inclines his head knowingly and adds: ]

It has a shower to die for. And we'll steal the bathrobes, of course.
