Mmmm, yum. Sad and evocative and delicious. I especially like the first one, with the sudden feeling of freedom and flight, and the hint that his subconscious knows where his bliss is...

I'm glad you liked it! The first is definitely my favorite as well, although I really like writing about dreams in general. There is something about delving into a character's subconscious ...it really makes me feel like I get to know them better.

Thanks for commenting!

Ah, that first dream! Turning into Clark and flying free is a beautuful thing.

And so sad about the second, because anybody who had suffered what Bruce did would have that nightmare over and over.

Nicely done!

Thank you!

These are wonderful! Especially the first one because it's so surprising. I feel like it almost says the most about Bruce's secret self.

Thank you! Yeah, the first one is my favorite as well. :)

Very nice. You captured what Bruce might dream about very well and I loved the way the three drabbles portained to each other.

Thank you! :)
