Re: quicklog, gotham: wayne manor
[There were a lot of things that Alfred couldn't do for the Waynes, but making arrangements was one thing he could do. He would say he needed to, too, because Bruce had gone from rigid refusal to talk to a shakey daze, and Alfred didn't know how much longer this stage would last, or what would come next. He also didn't know why the cremation was so important, but at this point, he might only get babbling from Bruce. It scared him, to be sure, but he could ask later.
So he turned and pulled forward the tray with breakfast. Maybe the docile daze could work in his favor.]. I'll take care of all the arrangements, sir, and you just sign off on them. [Alfred would also request that Bruce tell his family himself. But one thing at a time.]. Now have a bite, before it gets cold. It's rubbish cold. [And Alfred wouldn't stand for his food to taste like rubbish.]
