Brilliant study of Bruce and Gotham.

Thank you very much! I am glad you liked it. :)

I can see how the title works now. And works it does.

[emiv]

I'm glad to hear that! ;)

Ack. This is beautifully done. Bruce/Gotham is the OTP to end all OTPs.

A dance here, a witty retort there; these people adore the charming shell of Bruce Wayne. It wears the man inside thin.

I'm in love with this description of Bruce - and I'm loving just how brittle you've made this charming shell here. I can almost see the hairline fractures. <3

Just gotta say, I'm loving your comment!

This is beautifully done.

Aww, thank you!

Bruce/Gotham is the OTP to end all OTPs.

I can't help but agree; it is certainly one of mine! :)

Thank you! I am very glad you think so. I'd imagine being the playboy is very trying for him most of the time. :)

*grins* Thanks! And I have to agree with olde_fashioned; I really love the way you put this. Quite well said! :)

I was going to quote my favourite passages, until I realized that would mean quoting 9/10ths of this fic. So, I'm forcing myself to choose, and it's very very difficult!

He’d been in some of the darkest, most hellish corners of the earth, but this shiny ballroom with its pretty collection of Gotham’s elite is the closest thing to hell he can imagine.

Fantastic imagery here.

Gotham, like gravity, pulls him in.

This is arguably my very favourite part; I simply cannot get over the deftly woven TDK quote, the sentence structure, the way it leads up to the flourishing finale--EVERYTHING.

*BLUSHES* Stop that. ;)

Honestly? It's mine too. I don't get how I came to ship a character and a CITY so very hard, but boy, do I! Gotham is, without a doubt, the love of Bruce's life. *sigh*

Thanks for that; now I'm grinning like an idiot. ;)

Oh, this is beautiful. Bruce/Gotham OTP forever. You describe the city so beautifully, and Bruce's anticipation is both romantic and sexual in its intensity.

Thank you very much! I am so glad you enjoyed it. :)

Bruce/Gotham OTP forever.

AGREED. ;)
