One of the most important thing is Clark said"I love you".
The other is Gotham saved Bruce.
Now I can happily, calmly and peacefully wait for the last chapter.
Oh, by the way, GOOOOD way to let Clark now about Batman is Bruce so he didn't have time to be disbelieved.
(I think Alfred and Clark are great partners!Especially when Batman's in trouble.)

I agree! When I was writing, Clark suddenly insisted on getting that in there--like, I think he was afraid Bruce might not get it if he didn't say it clearly. :)

And oh, I love writing Clark and Alfred together worrying about Bruce! They make me so happy...

Thank you so much for commenting! I'm eager to get the last chapter up... *happy sigh*

*sobs* It's touching, more than one way. I just love how people of Gotham finally realized the truth and together they helped Batman. That's just the first thing I would expect from the next Batman movie.

And Clark's confession to Bruce was perfect. I wish Bruce will not run away from his feeling anymore. Can't wait to see the next part,hon!!

I want that SO MUCH from the third movie. I don't think Nolan can end it with Batman still being shunned and have it be satisfactory...but maybe? I'm dying to see...

Bruce won't be running anywhere for a while! He has some recuperating to do, so he can't escape Clark, muahahaha. :) Though I suspect he's a terrible, terrible patient as well...Clark and Alfred will probably want to get away after a little bit. :)

BEST BATMAN REVEAL EVER.

And Harley was great! And, oh, Babs. She's so smart, and so brave. And she didn't cry out to say anything to Batman, because it was supposed to be a secret. AAAAAahhhh <3 <3 <3

I'm tearing up, this was absolutely fantastic!!!

I watched it the other night and was wondering what you thought! I really enjoyed it - I thought Kara was great and the way the art draws Wonder Woman is my favorite EVER.

I did also love how protective Bruce was being of Clark :D

Babs was amazing in this! And Bruce suffering so, as he does so beautifully. :)

Harley was certifiable, Clark and Alfred heroic, and Jim, too. Though if I were him I'd get them out of Gotham. Two times too many to be kidnapped and threatened with death!

Good tension throughout this scene, and the ending was lovely.

I have a kink for heroes suffering in full view of everyone and people helpless to help! :)

I know, what the heck? Poor kids. I bet little Babs doesn't want to live in a city without Batman, though. :)

OH YEAH. :D I'm really hoping Nolan has something along those lines, although who knows, his Bruce might remain a pretty solitary creature...

You made me cry! Gosh darn you! Here I was thinking about how funny it was going to be when Clark learned the truth. Oh it would be a laugh riot. F***ing hilarious! Then I read this last part, and so here I am, at my desk, at work, trying to eat my f***ing sandwich, in tears. Thank you. Thank you so bloody much!

It was a fantastic story. Well done. You never disappoint.

No no, thank you! *bows* But seriously, I'm very glad it worked for you, it was kind of a wringer to write it, I confess!
