Batman Is Miffed

While Daniel got up, when we were playing with the Bat Castle, I committed the supreme faux pas of letting Madeleine play with the Batman action figure - I saw it as a rare opportunity for her, so I gave it to her.

When Daniel came back, Daniel was horrified, and quickly reclaimed the caped hero.

I tried to go on with "business as usual," by posing a question to Batman, who answered me through Daniel, showing far more disapproval than I would have expected from a high-profile public figure:

Me: How are you, Batman?

Batman: Good - except for someone named Madeleine is playing with me, and Daniel's supposed to be playing with me.
