“Anyway,” said Jason, “You haven’t even gotten to the lowest layer of your delicious crap cake that’s wrestling--no one except us and maybe Luthor himself knows that “Bruce Wayne” is really Bruce Wayne, the elusive heir of Gotham. You’re pretending to be someone pretending to be two people planning to take Luthor down, while actually planning to take Luthor down. That is some fucked-up shit, I approve.” He caught Alfred’s eye again and cleared his throat, reddening slightly. “Sorry.”

Language, Jason, as Captain America would say! ;)

This is typical Bat-stuff with all the layers upon layers. Nice tp bring Bruce's paranoia into play. :)

Dumb of Lex to bury the young wrestlers.

Jason having a hard time watching his language is always fun to write. *grin*

And promoters are generally the most short-sighted people on earth and carry grudges a long time! It's the eternal tale of wrestler versus promoter. :)

Almost no one thought anything of it at the time, but later people looked back and noticed the close-up in which Batman looked down at his team members and at Superman specifically, his face opaque and unreadable.

Then Superman beamed up at him, and the corners of Batman’s mouth softened into the closest he usually got to a true smile once more, and the moment was past.

Oooooh!

Clark saw a flicker of glee in Bruce’s eyes for a moment as his heat started to build.

“Are you offering?” Metamorpho asked with a weary sneer.

“As a matter of fact,” said Bruce, “I just might be.”

Ooooooh! It was great to see Billionaire Brucie again!

He tended to somehow sense when there was a training session at the Manor and materialize there, insisting that no one had told him and certainly no one had invited him.

Jason! *hearts him* And Tim fanboying!

I realized Billionaire Brucie was really necessary to a variety of loose ends and he'd better show up again! :) And Jason always insists on showing up even when I wasn't planning on him, it's...kind of hilarious. *grin* The next chapter should be up this weekend, yay!

“We couldn’t have done it without you!” Superman yelled to Batman, sweeping him up into a hug, and they all hoisted their chief strategist onto their shoulders as they celebrated.
AWWW! :)

“Are you offering?” Metamorpho asked with a weary sneer.
“As a matter of fact,” said Bruce, “I just might be.”
WOW

“Yes sir, Mr. Wayne, sir,” chirped Kara, making Steph snicker.
:lol She is cute. :))

A whole language of feather-light, lightning-fast touches; an entire conversation woven with glances and fragments of words. So natural, so intimate.
“I know,” said Bruce beside him, and Clark didn’t even need to look to know what his expression was. “I know.”
Yes! :D

“He’s a good kid,” Bruce agreed. “He deserves better. They all do. And someday, somehow, we’re going to make sure they get it.”
Bruce! *hugs him*

The Dark Knight looked through Red Robin as if he didn’t see him. “You don’t understand,” he said. “Don’t forget, he’s been controlled in the past. What if Luthor could get to him again? What if he could be turned against me?
Oh my gosh

Having Steph and Kara together makes me really happy--I loved their friendship in the old DCU...

O-ow, this sounds a little scary to me.

It should sound ominous! *foreboding music plays* Luckily Clark is totally in on everything in this universe, which makes things a little easier for my heart...
