And I sit here– And I sit here– And I sit here in my immense aloneness. And I sit here– And I sit here– And I sit here in my unbelievable grief […] in a great silence.

⚔ @maninbatsuit has crossed paths with 𝖗𝖆𝖕𝖍𝖆𝖊𝖑 ⚔

          Eyes narrowed as he immediately knew something wasn’t right. He’d taken every precaution, having done curator work for this museum in the past and authenticating items for them. The problem was, one of the items had belonged to him centuries ago and he wasn’t about to let it remain behind glass for mortals to gawk at without understanding the beauty behind it. A painting… portrait really. His own. He’d laughed off the jokes that the painting could have been of his long lost ancestor. But he wasn’t as alone as he thought. Couldn’t be the guards, he’d made sure they wouldn’t wake up for a while. No, this was someone else. Red pinprick eyes turned to look behind him. He wasn’t going to leave without the painting, no matter who came to stop him.

he’d noticed his cue and jumped, gliding towards the blond.  he’d realized the man had gone suspiciously still, not in the typical stillness one does when admiring artwork but when one realizes there’s another in their presence.  batman always struck before his position would become compromised, it was the only way to ensure he had a leg up on villains and ensured they remained superstitious and cowardly.  

as bizarre as it was, the specific piece that the other had been looking was one donated to the museum by wayne foundation itself.  which had little to do why he was there of all places thwarting the theft, the painting was meant to remain until the charity auction at which it’s awards would be donated to gotham general.  altruism is the only reason he busts this crime tonight, not the love for the piece itself.

batman braced himself to knock the other out with a strong kick and push from his gliding vantage.

“Where else would I find out that info about you? I’m pretty sure you lie to every single tabloid.” Clark rolled his shoulders, unconcerned. “It’s not cheating, mind you.”

❛ a stakeout. painfully awaiting for me to eat until my mind released the amount of endorphins only my favorite food, chocolate, or wine could. ❜  he scoffed, in show.

@dovenoire ⸰ ° • ⟨ from ⟩ 

it was finally valentine’s.  he’d sent a car to pick her up, she hadn’t been feeling well but he knew she wouldn’t want to miss the date of all dates, so he’d made sure to pull back the roses and have them refrigerated until she was feeling better and wouldn’t be sending her to the restroom of all places due to inconsideration on his part.  

alfred had been forced to have the night off — and with a little matchmaking — was on a date with leslie on tonight of all nights.  kindly, leslie brought over some ‘emergency’ medical supplies that she thought would be best given what she’d known about jen’s current state — little do the heroes know a surprise awaited within the box.  bruce had meticulously moved the heavily scented items out of the private dining and living rooms they were going to use for their date to avoid the wrath of jen’s nausea.  

a text was sent: I hope you’re feeling better, and if not, I’ll warm up the chicken noodle soup, I can’t let you stay home alone like that.  Join me tonight, even if it’s in sweats.

@doubleohcharm ⸰ ° • ⟨ bond ⟩ (i’ll get to myc’s reply in a bit)

the situation was absolutely horrible — dreadful even.  of all the people for bruce to be stuck in this escalated hostage situation with, it had to have been him.  bond.  james.  the fool he may or may not be in a complicated relationship with but what’s worse is that the other is a spy.  one that relies far and few on skill and talent but raw luck.  something bruce didn’t believe in — despite how often and how much he’d been involved in and with magic or the like, he simply couldn’t, didn’t believe in it.  it was easier, better, to live with his numbers, facts, science.

     ❛ please, tell me that at the very least you happen to have your pen with you. ❜  bruce said, in a voice simultaneously quiet and urgent, to the man dressed in vacation wear.

[Paco] ... so do the ears... do anything? Or are they like, you know, decorative?

despite hearing the other, batman decided to ignore the question.  an action that didn’t mean he ignored the other completely, after he’d finished typing up what he needed to, he’d handed paco a few devices to make the other useful if he was going to take up the bat’s personal space.

“It’s called investigative journalism. And I’m pretty good at it.”

     ❛ investigative journalism, ❜ bruce said heavily, all but missing the finger quotes to show his skepticism.  ❛ i didn’t realize that’s what we called it when cheaters asked father figures for the other’s favorite food. ❜
