FLOCK OF BATS: Give Batman a free action to attach an adjacent Flock of Bats to his base or remove an attached Flock of Bats and place it in an adjacent square; when a Flock of Bats is attached, Batman can use its special power, but do not return the flock to your starting area after using it. If Batman is KOd with a Flock of Bats attached, place any attached Flock of Bats in an adjacent square before removing him from the game.
Now to the point.
1/ Can give Batman one free action to detach a flock, use the flock for what it does best (with the apporpriate action) then give Batman another free action to reattach it ?
I know you cannot activate twice the same effect with a free action during a turn, I wonder if attaching and detaching are the same effect (since they come from the same trait) or not (since they obviously don't do the same thing)
2/ If I reattach a flock of bats I've used before or during the beginning of the next turn after I've used its SP, what happen to the flock ? Does it go back in my starting area (as noted in each flock's sp description), or does it stay because it is attached to Batman ?
I guess I can use a free action to reattach a flock which SP has been activated during my previous turn because I can choose in which order effects happen at the beginning of my turn (I'm the active player after all). If i'm wrong about that feel free to correct me.
Thanks in advance for any input !

1: No you can't use the free action to detach then again to attach, it is the same free action that has two different possible choices of effect so you can't do it twice.
2: I'm not positive on this one. I know free actions can be done in any order during the beginning of your turn, like poison and outwit etc, but I'm not sure if things that passively happen "at the beginning of your turn" occur before anything. I'm fairly sure things that last "until the begnning of your next turn" absolutely resolve first, but I'm not sure if two things that can occur "at the beginning of your next turn" would be simultaneous if one was a free action and the other was passive...
