Nov. 6th, 2023 04:40 pmNews Flash (Wally, Clark/Bruce | G | 2,843 words): Upon learning that batman is Bruce Wayne, Wally has to recontextualize several past interactions. Ahh, this is a really funny look at Wally and Bruce interacting.
Excerpt:
"Human beings are generally impulsive. The extremely wealthy often have especially poor impulse control, after a lifetime of getting whatever they want when they want it. So one can't be too surprised that, given time alone with his boyfriend on the Watchtower, Wayne would give in to the impulse to...christen the council table."
"You don't think much of human beings, do you?" growled Superman.
"I know they tend not to be able to resist temptation," Batman said blandly, crossing his arms and meeting Superman's gaze with those creepy white lenses.
"Well, I hope he resists the temptation from now on," grumbled Flash. "He didn't seem the least bit embarrassed, but his boyfriend seemed pretty mortified. That's right, he's from Metropolis, reporter for the Planet" he exclaimed, turning to Superman. "He's written some stuff about you, right? Clark Kent--do you know him? Did you know he was dating Bruce Wayne?"
Superman looked uncomfortable. "I...don't remember reading that in the papers."
"I wonder what a guy like him did to score a billionaire boy toy," mused Flash.
"Life is full of unsolved mysteries," intoned Batman from the corner, and Superman gave him another withering glare.
