"I can keep going."

If he were anyone else perhaps, Bruce might have the decency to look caught out by the lie. But he's been learning a great deal in the last few years, about how best to angle a situation so that the outcome is what he wants it to be- in this case it's a matter of technicality. He would argue that it depends on where you place the emphasis, on 'perfect' or 'functional.'

This is not the worst state he's ever been in. It wasn't the most difficult fight, or the most outnumbered, or the most desperate. He's still standing; has done more than stand, as it happens.

He doesn't gesture with his hands, but there's a small tilt of his head that might suggest that he's sharing a private smile.

"I've been told that I'm very tenacious."
