"It always is," Bruce replied with a nod. If only Effie and Edward could interact like a regular family, maybe things would be better. But normal people didn't have a criminal genius mastermind for a father, one who was also a murderer and whom had been dating a complete psychopath. Edward was in all ways of the word wrong for Effie.
At the invitation Bruce sighed, "Thanks. I'll keep that in mind if it starts getting really bad but I have things to tend to still that need my attention. Annie and Tony, especially." Bruce had been tending both to Annie, some, and Edward, more. And Bruce doubted Tony was going to just let him camp out with Dinah Lance and her boyfriend on a whim. Not that Tony controlled him but Bruce leaving was a sensitive subject for the scientist. Bruce wasn't sure exactly why.
Bruce really would consider the option, however, because even he ended an escape once in a while.
