Magic action

"Blues"

A social reception, an invitation to which Bruce had received a week earlier.  With the whole situation with Dick, he completely forgot about it. 

At the end of her conversation, Helena returned to the room, but Bruce was not there and Dick was not there either.  No need to worry, he was probably with Wayne.  Her request to Tiger to come to the estate may not be to Bruce's liking; she should warn him sooner.

She walked into the corridor, there was no one there either, something fell on her head and got tangled in her hair.  Helena shook the crystal out of her hair, it seems like these are on chandeliers?

There is a large chandelier in the corridor, perhaps it fell from it, Helena wondered: why did it fall?  I looked up,

"OH MY GOD, DICK!" 

Bruce ran in panic at the girl's scream, "HELENA!" 

she stood in the center of the corridor, and with her 3 more uninvited guests, the girl pointed to the chandelier.

Bruce raised his head, “Not again...” “You mean, this isn’t the first time he’s done this?”

Grifter was farthest away from everyone, but watched with interest, Midnighter was amused by what was happening - “That’s the kid. How did he even get there?”  ?" 

With all Helena’s attempts to remove the boy, Dick was not going to obey and was extremely silent,  “he looks scared,” Helena elbowed Tiger, “Of course he’s scared! A bunch of unknown people are looking at him from below!” 

Midnighter walked around the chandelier, “Maybe we’ll take it off, it seems dangerous.”

Bruce came down on time, Helena smiled guiltily, “I wanted to warn you!”  At the sight of Bruce, the tension in the boy's body decreased.

His attention was drawn to the toy in Wayne's hands.  “Dick, I brought you something, please come down,” the man held out a stuffed elephant.

Dick jumped from the chandelier onto the stairs, everyone except Wayne tensed, the boy ran up and hugged the toy tightly.  Everyone stared, the attention making the back of Bruce's neck tingle. 

“As I understand it, you didn’t come to look at my child?”  Drawing attention to yourself.

Tiger briefly clarified their future actions.  There is not much time; according to their plan, Bruce must be at the evening to identify the unknown person. 

“We have no guarantees that he will be there, but such a case will not happen again. He covers his tracks too well.”  , said Midnighter. 

“I don’t mind, but who should I leave Dick with?”

Bruce sat Dick next to him, the boy studied his toy with interest.  Midnighter decided to try to make contact,

"Hello Dick, Uncle Midnighter will take you in his arms, you don't mind, do you?"   Dick turned his attention to Midnighter and.... ... reached out to him.

  To say that Bruce was shocked would be an understatement. 

“Hey, he didn’t want to come to me!”

Helena muttered offendedly, Midnighter, pleased with himself, was already cooing at full speed with the baby in his arms, Tiger was worried about the same question directed to Bruce,

“Why is he silent?”

"I tried to chat with him, but he doesn't answer, I don't know why"

" Dick?", - the boy reacted, - "Wow Midnighter, you're a genius to call him by name, it doesn't give us anything." - Helena blurted out sarcastically, Bruce was about to find an invitation to the reception, he left the room.
