"Master Dick, might I ask... where your laundry is?"
Dick leaned back from the kitchen bar counter, mouth full of crunchy granola and milk. He blinked rapidly in way of silently asking for patience, chewing quicker. Which resulted in ten seconds of Alfred watching him with a slightly arched brow.
Finally, "I already did it, Al. You're laundry free today."
The brow arched further. Dick was certain he was thinking about the clothes he'd have to search out of Dick's Bludhaven apartment and press and fold properly--since Dick of course was never so tidy with clothes.
"And the box that was on the washer?"
"Yours, of course."
"...Ceramic penguins, sir?"
Dick smirked. It wasn't as though they were cheesy penguin figurines. In fact, they were rather elegant, glossy black and white, abstract shapes in different positions and sizes. "I happen to know you like penguins."
"I'm just not sure why-."
"Alfred, did you happen to count them?"
Alfred stopped, considered, then made a silent 'Ah' motion with his lips. Dick grinned. There was one each for all Alfred's 'kids', corresponding in size even. "Happy Your day, Al. Sorry, but Bruce kinda already has the June holiday to himself, so only fair."
"I suppose, sir." Alfred started to walk away while Dick shoveled more granola in his mouth. "And thank you."
"Yeah, welcome!" Dick saluted toward the retreating figure then dragged the container of granola toward himself again and poured another bowl, then looked into his empty mug and slid over the counter to grab another cup of coffee.
