Comment on happiness is (not) a dog in your bed...

  1. *g* So glad you liked it! I have to confess I had this in my endless unfinished drafts, and when I was reminded of Bruce's birthday, I pulled it up and finished barely in time to post it. And, where do I even begin with your amazing comment? Honestly, I had to take a second to stop grinning like a loon, and now I guess I should probably try to give you a somewhat articulate reply, so...

    Yay for this story causing inappropriate noises! (as strange as that sounds. lol!) Glasses. Yes, sir. We haven't seen Christian with glasses (at least not ones I like) but I still love the idea for some reason. So I had to make Tony love it too ;P And we all know what a big softie Bruce is, Tony more than most, so of course he wasn't fooled one bit. As for JARVIS, well, I have to admit that's something I've thought about before (weird, I know) and my feelings about it reflex Bruce's own. And Tony's too, to be honest. *hides away*

    Considering how much I seem to love writing one-shots, I'll say is safe to expect a lot more fics in this series, as well as the friendship one too ;)

    I had seen photos of Robert with his cats before, but it wasn't until now that I read about the story and, well, let's just say I can definitely see that too (even if I'm not sure about the Catwoman puns yet :P) and with the way my mind is already plotting, it's very likely there would be a sequel to this fic up very soon, which would of course be dedicated entirely to you for putting this idea in my head.

    1. I get the awkward noises (and stares) in public, you get the loony grin - guess you lucked out in comparision, lol.

      Re: glasses. Have you tried Google for 'Christian Bale glasses Velvet Goldmine'? Case in point: http://images2.fanpop.com/image/photos/12100000/Arthur-Stuart-velvet-goldmine-12191041-402-299.jpg

      Anyhow, I am all for one-shots (wish I would be able to produce more of those myself, but thankfully you're back and taking care of those now), and at the prospect of being responsible for something involving Tony and cats, well... *rubs hands* I'd take the blame!

      1. Definitely did, considering I was alone when I read your comment ;)

        I've seen the images (and the movie too) and while I can't say he looked bad with those glasses, I was actually picturing smaller, rectangular eyeglasses, maybe even rimless or semi rimless. I don't even know. *shrug* I realize that's pretty specific so that's why I didn't describe them in the fic.

        That's funny, considering I wish I could work in my multi-chapter fics rather than come up with ideas for ten different one-shots. *sigh* I don't want to say anything because I don't want to spoil the fun, but I'm definitely working on that sequel (on and off because apparently that's the only way I work) and I'm liking very much how is going ;)

        1. Ohh, I think I know what type of glasses you mean (pretty vivid imagination here) - and you may be right; the less hipster, more business-type ones would work even better for Bruce! Of course, something expensive, titan-made, flexible and indestructible while we're at it ;-)

          And besides, he totally would go for the most invisible glasses available, because of reasons - a little vanity here, a little convenience there... lol.

          Argh, if only I get to read all those ideas of yours (I will, won't I? At some point?); but as always, I shall work on being patient. Good things come to those who wait, I know that now :-))

          PS. on-and-off-writing is dominating my life lately as well.. damn different verses! j/k

          1. Yup. Only the best of the best for Gotham's prince. And with how much Tony love to see him wearing them, I bet he even gifted him a pair too ;)

            Yeah, I think you will read all, or at least most of them at some point. A few of them are coming along nicely, so I don't think it would take me too long to post them. And because I'm an incorrigible teaser, I can tell you there are a few that include Clark, that friends with benefits one I mentioned in passing before, some Bruce in a bit of danger, an interview as a couple, and a few other more too. Of course, I'm also working on the sequel too, so yeah. Lots of one-shots are in my future.

            Oh. Do I get a little preview on what you're working on? Other than the racing AU?

            1. Seeing how obsessed Tony is with expensive sunglasses (and how sexy he looks with them), it's only fair that he sees about his lover boy ;-D

              Yesss, gimme all the one-shots!!! And those teasers sound amazing, really... Bruce in danger, omg, with Tony all BAMF and worried maybe?! Oh, and Clark? Really? How exciting!

              Hmm - preview... I shall be inclined to have some kind of barter system (gratuitous Sherlock Holmes ref) indeed... you know... like... I'll show you mine, you show me yours... under the cloak of secrecy and such *insert spy music here*

              1. You can bet Tony is going to be pissed and worried. And, well, Bruce is still Batman, so he's going to help a bit with his own rescue ;) As for Clark, I love the idea of them as friends (which I hinted on in a previous one-shot) so, I finally got around to write something with them and Tony too, of course.

                I'm not opposite to that idea, though I was mostly talking about getting a little tease or basic idea of something you're working on. Like, say, a highschool!AU or something ;P

                1. Cannot say it again - I'm so looking forward to this!

                  Hmm, okay, a little tease... well, obviously not a highschool!AU, since I've had my fair share of college!AU around here already *g*, but I can say I have a WIP file that includes some kind of medical!AU... *digs deeper*... there's something that involves western!AU stuff... *almost disappears digging*

                  ... oh, and something that's not really IronBat, but rather 'rare pair-ish', involving Tony and a character that's not quite Bruce (I *think* we might have briefly spoken about this idea of mine years ago... literally, lol)

                  Enough of a tease for you? ;-P

                  1. I'm very glad! And I should have any of it up soon :)

                    Oooh, medical!AU you say? You've definitely picked my interest with that! I love that photo of CB wearing a doctor's coat from a movie, so that and this idea of yours adding Tony to the mix are already putting some very nice images in my head. And made me very curious as well, but I'll wait patiently. I'm also looking forward to the western!AU, of course I'm particularly fond of AUs, so I'm very happy to know you're working on some.

                    Mmm, I have to admit I don't remember it now, but I may just go back to skim over the messages to find out who is it you're talking about.

                    I'm very happy right now, yep. Thanks for sharing!

                    1. You being happy is making me happy! Win-win!

                      Yup, totally caught me out on that doctor look that Bale is rocking in Laurel Canyon there ;-D We shall see how it goes (ugh, research is going to be tough I fear...) - I might need some more time for that one.

                      Well, what can I say: On the one hand, I have all those weird AU ideas that I'm bouncing around as WIPs, but on the other hand, I am to-tal-ly yearning for some more canon-ish x-overs too, soooo... I'm looking at you there, sweetheart <3 <3 <3

                      1. "Ugh, research" indeed. Wish I could be of any help with that, but sadly the only medical knowledge I have comes just from watching House MD, and I can't honestly say I remember much of it anyway, so not very helpful. Anyway, good luck with it!

                        Riiight. I really need to apply myself. Okay, I promise I will be posting something new next week ;)

                        1. Ah, no worries there - guess I'll just wing it (as usual), just watch me, lol!
                          Ohh, next week's gonna be good, if that's the case *rubs hands*
                          SO. EXCITED. NOW.
