( he knows of the elevator but opts not to use it. it might have been the better way to go about getting down to his father's 'batcave', quicker, and would have warned bruce of his presence, but that wasn't part of damian's plan. this is a check-in visit to ensure he has his. . . gifted companion handled, not one where damian intends to stick around to have a chat. he can't imagine bruce is very happy with him currently, and while that doesn't usually deter damian from sticking around, he knows this is a different kind of upset, and one bruce needs time to handle on his own.
his grapple hangs onto the piping inside the elevator shaft as damian lets himself down it, quietly lowering himself down into wayne terminus. hangs upside down in the elevator shaft with the grapple gun in hand and his boot wrapped in the wire so it holds most of his weight. nothing he can't get out of in moments if needed, but it keeps his hands free.
hands he crosses over his chest when bruce calls out to him. he's barely visible, head high enough only the bridge of his nose and higher is visible in the elevator shaft's opening, but he knows bruce isn't relying just on sight also. he's never needed it, to know when someone else is lingering in the shadows. )
