{Bruce}:

Bruce nodded, grabbing his friend’s hand. “Okay, lead the way.” It was Clark’s house after all, even if he knew every detail of it he still needed to be polite.

Clark couldn’t help the little smile that rose to his lips when Bruce grabbed his hand. Just like old times, without any of this weird political trash between them. “Lead the way? You think my house is big enough to get lost in like yours?”

[babybatwithabird-a]

Bruce laughed at that, shaking his head. Of course it wasn't, but he wanted things to be how they were before all of this so he had asked. "Nah, it's been awhile though."

[babybatwithabird-a]

“I’m sorry Reporters, I think this may be a little too much for my fiancé. He isn’t used to being in the spotlight like this, he grew up on a farm.”

Bruce gave the reporters a smile as he wrapped one of his arms around the other. “And yes miss Vale I have known that I was into males for awhile, Clark and I have always been close. We were practically like brother’s, but after we hit puberty Clark changed a lot and I started well… Crushing on him if you must know. Not only does he have the morals this country has seem to forgotten but now he is more handsome than ever. We started dating awhile back and now we have agreed to get married.”

The lies slipped off his tongue easily, he didn’t want them knowing the truth. Him and Clark needed to make it seem like they weren’t doing this due to a contract made by their dads.

[justakansasboy-deactivated20230]

The familiar touch and warmth of the hold made Clark visibly relax in front of the reporters. To them, it must have seemed all the more real, then.

The blushing, sweet, simple, innocent farmboy burying his face into Bruce’s neck and shoulder, only to relax at the touch? How could it not be real? He was playing his part perfectly, without even knowing.

“You forgot to tell them my last name.” He mumbled into Bruce’s ear. “But…thanks.”

And then he went right back to hiding in Bruce’s neck.

God, let it be over soon…

[babybatwithabird-a]

Bruce ran his fingers through Clarks hair, smiling out at the cameras that were all aimed at him and Clark. "Yes, I do intend to hold an actual wedding ceremony. Though the details haven't been planed yet, we only just got engaged a few days ago." Bruce looked at his watch, pretending to act shocked at the time. "I'm afraid it's time for me and Clark to leave, I have a meeting."

[babybatwithabird-a]

“Yeah it would be funny.”

Bruce let the corners of his lips rise, thinking a moment before taking off his mask.

“I won’t be recognized without it, my face hadn’t been seen since…”

[justakansasboy-deactivated20230]

“You look better without it, anyway.” Clark observed quite honestly.

“You have nice eyes.”

[babybatwithabird-a]

Bruce did his best to ignore the blush rising in his cheeks, it had been awhile since anyone complimented his looks. He wasn't used to it anymore.

"Thanks."

[babybatwithabird-a]

“I don’t have a future, my dad was a doctor you know. But I don’t have time for a real profession of my own, I’m just going to be the owner of a company.”

Bruce let out a small, frustrated, growl-like sound.

“Don’t cry you stupid puppy.”

[justakansasboy-deactivated20230]

“Don’t you dare patronize me for caring about you!” Clark snapped, voice raising for quite possibly out of anger at Bruce for quite possibly the first time in their friendship, ever.

“You know I love you, and you act like I’m stupid for casting about you? You know what I’m like! You know I’m stupid and clingy and emotional! And that’s fine! But don’t say it’s because I care about you!”

[babybatwithabird-a]

“Well you are clingy with me because you care about me, emotional is only sometimes about me, and you’re not stupid you just don’t know a lot about some stuff.” Bruce looked his friend in the eyes, letting his mask fall for a few seconds. Allowing his eyes to be cold and empty.

“I don’t want you too, it’s not like Alfred doesn’t care enough for the both of you. It’s bad enough he is acting like I’m a small child because of this whole thing I don’t need you worrying about me.”

[babybatwithabird-a]

“Yes, though we need to avoid the adults. They might send us home…”

Bruce sighed.

[justakansasboy-deactivated20230]

Clark winked.

“I’d like to see them try.”

[babybatwithabird-a]

"Yeah it would be funny."

Bruce let the corners of his lips rise, thinking a moment before taking off his mask.

"I won't be recognized without it, my face hadn't been seen since..."

[babybatwithabird-a]

“I don’t need to talk about anything, unless you count the fact that if you don’t calm down you’re going to break my shoulders.” Bruce did his best to keep his voice calm, hiding his issues behind a mask was easy.

“I know you love me Clark and I love you like a bother too. I just don’t have anything to say, it’s not just gonna go away if I talk about it. Talking can’t change the past.”

[justakansasboy-deactivated20230]

“But you don’t have to throw away your future!” Clark exclaimed back.

Tears were pooling in his eyes.

He hadn’t cried since he was seven.

“Not with me right here!”

[babybatwithabird-a]

"I don't have a future, my dad was a doctor you know. But I don't have time for a real profession of my own, I'm just going to be the owner of a company."

Bruce let out a small, frustrated, growl-like sound.

"Don't cry you stupid puppy."

[babybatwithabird-a]

Bruce pulled out Clarks chair before sitting down in his own, scanning the crowd for a certain reporter. It was easy to find her, the woman sat in front at all of these. “Well then I suppose you’re all wondering why I called you here, I’m gonna make it quick so you can hurry up and ask everything you want to… Me and Clark Kent, the man that came here with me, are going to be getting married.”

[justakansasboy-deactivated20230]

A million questions were suddenly thrown at him at once. The shy farmboy latched on tighter to his husband-to-be, burying his face into Bruce’s shoulder to hide.

He was not ready for this. He was so not ready for this. Not so many people at once—!

“Bruce…”

[babybatwithabird-a]

"I'm sorry Reporters, I think this may be a little too much for my fiancé. He isn't used to being in the spotlight like this, he grew up on a farm."

Bruce gave the reporters a smile as he wrapped one of his arms around the other. "And yes miss Vale I have known that I was into males for awhile, Clark and I have always been close.

#best cinematic portrayal of batman that will ever exist (via chaila)

[happynote89-deactivated20150802]

I’m so tired of Marvel fans (or should I say Marvel cinematic fans that actually know nothing about the actual comic universe) accusing DC Comics of having knock-off heroes.  This goes to show a large majority of DC/Marvel comparable heroes actually started with DC FIRST. The most annoying one of late is people who make the Green Arrow vs. Hawkeye comparison.  I’m sorry, but Green Arrow was 23 years before Hawkeye!

Not to mention the Justice League premiered 3 years before the Avengers ever even assembled.  

Ok, rant done.

[babybatwithabird-a]

“Let’s do it in the building with my name on it, I owned the place.”

Bruce chuckled slightly.

[justakansasboy-deactivated20230]

Clark rolled his eyes in turn.

At least Bruce was laughing now.

“Fine, fine.”

[babybatwithabird-a]

"Yes, though we need to avoid the adults. They might send us home..."

Bruce sighed.

[babybatwithabird-a]

“Calm down, remember you’re being watched and judged. ”

Bruce got out of the car, walking past all the reporters who were yelling questions. Occasionally he stopped and gave a smile for a picture or a small answer but otherwise he kept walking until he got to where the press conference actually was going to take place.

[justakansasboy-deactivated20230]

The whole time, like all the red-carpet people he had seen on T.V., Clark simply attached himself to the Bat’s arm, keeping his face ducked down and trying to keep the blush off of his face.

[babybatwithabird-a]

Bruce pulled out Clarks chair before sitting down in his own, scanning the crowd for a certain reporter. It was easy to find her, the woman sat in front at all of these. "Well then I suppose you're all wondering why I called you here, I'm gonna make it quick so you can hurry up and ask everything you want to... Me and Clark Kent, the man that came here with me, are going to be getting married."

[babybatwithabird-a]

Bruce sighed, looking down at the ground. He knew he could go too far, even Alfred was confronting him about how he acted now. Ever since Alfred found out he hurt himself his guardian had started to act more like a normal one and Bruce had been getting far more physical affection then he was used to.

“Fine Clark.”

[justakansasboy-deactivated20230]

“Don’t just go fine about this!” The other boy exclaimed back as he grabbed the Bat by his shoulders tightly, eyes wide with alarm.

“This isn’t just something that will go away, or something that you could just change the subject about! Bruce, I love you like my brother! And if you have problems you need to talk about, then talk to me!”

[babybatwithabird-a]

"I don't need to talk about anything, unless you count the fact that if you don't calm down you're going to break my shoulders." Bruce did his best to keep his voice calm, hiding his issues behind a mask was easy.

"I know you love me Clark and I love you like a bother too. I just don't have anything to say, it's not just gonna go away if I talk about it. Talking can't change the past."

DO NOT DO THIS.

This makes me so angry.

If you work in a movie theater and you do this I have no respect for you.

My younger brother is Type 1 Diabetic.

When we go to a movie theater, we always get him diet soda. If he were to get regular when we asked for diet, we would not give him the insulin he would need for it. If that happens, his blood sugar level could go so high he could go into a coma, go blind, or even die.

If somebody gave him regular soda instead of diet without telling us, that person could be responsible for a nine-year-old being killed or blinded.

Just thinking about that makes me so angry. I get scared every time we take him to a movie in case the people working there saw this picture and decide to do the same thing.

Please signal boost this so people know.

[wreckedupbarnes]

This also applies to baristas

[kimchicutie-deactivated20180618]

Fun story about the baristas doing this kind of shit. 

I am very sensitive to lactose, not Lactose intolerant but because of stomach ulcers that are still healing. A couple years ago I went to Starbucks right after my classes with some friends and asked for a green tea latte with soy milk. The barista, for some reason out of malice and/or hate for her life so she took it out on me, gave me whole milk in my latte.

5 minutes after my first sip of latte, my stomach cramped BAD. Not the “Oh! time to poop!” kind of cramp but it felt like someone had stabbed me with a knife and twisted it. Now I’ve had this happen before so I knew the cause of it. I went up to the barista clutching my gut screaming at her that she put dairy in my latte rather than soy LIKE I REQUESTED. She denied it and called me a “pretentious white girl for wanting soy”and so my friends got the manager. I had to explain that I had stomach ulcers that were still healing and if I were to go to the hospital for this incident, they would be responsible for it.

Manager flipped his shit and the barista was terrified out of her mind. Pretty sure both thought i was gonna sue. Manager actually fired her on the spot because of the negligence. My friends managed to get me home in one piece while I stayed home for 3 days in absolute agony and missed my midterm.

So remember kiddies, if someone is asking for Diet or “Skinny” or “soy” or anything that is not regular, give them what they requested because it may not be them being healthy, but a dietary need that can possibly be life or death

[housebuiltbyghosts-deactivated2]

also if they ARE trying to be healthy you should give it to them to!! Its not your decision to police or question others food choices!!! 

also im lactose intolerant AND ive had stomach infections/ulcers so i feel this. 

[cartoonkatelyn]

I have Celiac Disease, so I’m very gluten intolerant. When I go out to eat at restaurants a lot of people just assume that I asked for my food gluten free because of the gluten free diet fad (which is usually a bullshit diet btw). 

Last month I went out to dinner with a friend at an italian restaurant that had a small gluten free menu. I had been there once before and had their gluten free pasta and it was great! I think one of the managers had been there and was super helpful when taking my order to make sure that everything was gluten free for me. When I ordered the gluten free pasta again this time though, the waitress who took my order all but rolled her eyes at me. I didn’t think much of it at the time, because the restaurant was so accommodating before, I just assumed it would be the same this time.

But sure enough, they brought out my pasta, I ate it, and about an hour later I had extreme stomach pains and was throwing up (in a movie theater no less).

Barfing and agonizing pain aside, eating gluten when you have celiac causes a lot of internal damage that’s hard to notice. The biggest thing is that it damages your intestines, preventing your body from absorbing nutrients properly, which can take months to heal.

So PLEASE, if you work at a restaurant or anything with food and someone asks for something a certain way, please listen to them and don’t just disregard someone’s order. It’s not funny and it can have serious consequences.

[somethingnottooclever]

I will reblog this with every single story about someone getting sick because of an asshole giving them the opposite of what they ordered until it sinks in for everyone.

[sailornightfury]

Recently on the news a 16 year old boy with a dairy allergy had gone to eat at IHOP with his family. The specifically asked if they could make dairy free pancakes and they said yes. Not too long after he had a reaction and was rushed to the hospital. This kid died because the was dairy in his pancakes that they asked for no dairy. His epi pen that his mother had wasn’t enough to help him. I know working in fast food or any job that’s serves food and beverage sucks but not as much as causing someone to get sick over negligence.

“Okay, not where people will find us though.”

He patted the other’s back, humming a small tune.

[justakansasboy-deactivated20230]

Clark snorted in amusement.

“Nahhh, I’m just gonna walk in the street and dig it up.”

[babybatwithabird-a]

"Let's do it in the building with my name on it, I owned the place."

Bruce chuckled slightly.
