“It was embarrassing,” Clark muttered.
Hee!
The Dark Knight, it was noted on the message boards after the show, looked notably unconcerned about the terrible disadvantage he would be working at.
Heh!
“Why would I allow your Kryptonian to trade numbers with my all-powerful wrestling android, Amazo?” He gestured behind him at the well-sculpted wrestler with his red hair cut into a neat widow’s peak, his arms crossed in a perfect mirror of the Kryptonian.
Oh, Amazo!
The Dark Knight must not be allowed to confront the Kryptonian.”
Oooooh!
“I have nothing at all to worry about--as long as the Dark Knight never gets a chance to talk to the Kryptonian again.”
The camera zoomed in on the Kryptonian’s expressionless face as the scene faded out.
*dances* Oh, I can't wait to see that!
in slow motion you could see how, as Harvey caught Dick and fell backwards, one of the monitors on the table gashed into his upper back. There was a trickle of blood running down the small of his back now.
Meeep, poor Harvey!
“I don’t care how big you are, I don’t care how strong you are, I don’t care that you don’t believe I can beat you--you’re going to tap out!” Clark glimpsed a glint of tears in the eyes beneath the blue mask, and at his side he heard Bruce murmur Dick’s name as if it pained him.
Oh!
Nightwing stood in the middle of the ring as confetti and streamers fell around him. The referee brought him the belt, gold and heavy and gleaming in the hectic light of the pyro. He hoisted it above his head with an exhilarated smile, the conquering hero soaking in the adulation of the crowd.
Then he looked down at the belt, and Clark saw his face crumple as it sank in, as he realized that this was his. That Luthor had--impossibly, unbelievably--decided to put his faith in a slender acrobat with charisma and attitude. That he had achieved everything that Bruce and his parents had ever dreamed of for him. That he was in the history books forever.
Dick Grayson fell to his knees in the middle of the ring and wept, and the thousands in attendance, the millions watching at home--they wept with him too.
Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!! *flails and cheers and hugs Dick*
Barbara was taking pictures and Tim seemed to be posting to Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook simultaneously. Clark knew without checking that Jason would be trolling him in the comments in all three places.
Eeeeheehee!
Harvey was being gracious about his loss and seemed to be planning his new angle (and perhaps vicious revenge) with Ivy and Harley in the corner.
Yay, Harvey!
“I’m not sure he’d notice if there was an alien invasion,” Clark said.
*giggles*
Bruce brought his forehead to Dick’s, cradling his head, and spoke to him for a while. Dick nodded and wiped at his eyes, then hugged him, sending a smile and a salute Clark’s way as well.
Awww! *hearts them both*
He went over to Harvey Dent and clapped him on the shoulder. Clark couldn’t hear him over the chatter of the party, but he could read “Thank you” on Bruce’s lips, see the wry smile Harvey gave him as they shook hands.
Eeeee! *hearts Bruce and Harvey*
“Hey,” he said, punching Bruce lightly on the shoulder. “You still haven’t met my parents yet.”
Oh wow! That's such a strange thought that, after everything they've been through, Bruce has never met the Kents!
“They should be there when Superman makes his debut.”
Eeeeeeee! *squees and flails* I'm SO looking forward to that, yay! *bounces*
This was a wonderful chapter - Dick is the champion at last, whee!

I was really happy to write Dick winning and everyone (pretty much!) being happy for him! Clark and Bruce are feeling a bit smug about it, I think...
Haha, I'm glad you caught that little "alien invasion" line! :D
Oh wow! That's such a strange thought that, after everything they've been through, Bruce has never met the Kents!
I KNOW! I suddenly realized that was something that would have to change! And now I'm not exactly sure how to go about it, or what the Kents think of this job, hmmmm... :)
