    Summary

    "Let me get this straight…you, mister, I don't look anyone in the face and if you talk to me for more than five minutes I'll start crying, you want….I can't believe I'm about to say it…learn how to seduce a man."

    "Exactly," Bruce replied, as he petted one of Selina's cats.

    " Why?"

    "Who cares?" Harley broke in.

    "He finally wants to step outside his boundaries! You have my respect!"

    "It's not about going outside my boundaries. It's about planetary security."

    "Really?" Selina said, half joking.

    "Superman is powerful enough to destroy the planet. I have to find how to stop him."

    This knocked Harley over, and Pamela finally stopped pretending not to pay attention.

    Selina didn't know whether to laugh hysterically or slap him on the head.

    Summary

    “And for the love of god, don’t let the cameras catch any sparring, attempted fratricide, or ninja crap,” Bruce said. 

    “Bye, Bruce,” Tim waved. 

    “Please,” Bruce said. “How often do I say ‘please’?” 

    “Have fun in Star!” Tim pushed him out the door.

    Summary

    "What's your dog's name?" the sudden question surprised him.

    He swallowed, "Krypto."

    "Krypto... seriously?"

    "Um...in my defense, I didn't pick the name," he muttered. He couldn't even fault Kara for choosing the name, not when it was clear how much she missed their home world and the only consolation, aside from alcohol, was that dog.

    "I see..." the vigilante said, then, looking at the dog, said, "Krypto. Down."

    He was about to tell him it wouldn't work. Krypto didn't listen to anyone, not even Clark's parents. But something incredible happened.

    The dog dropped the thief and flew in front of Batman. As if it was natural!

    Summary

    "Luthor stole some Wayne Tech technology to build portals and... Sorry, but do you know there's a flying sheet behind you?"

    Bruce turned around immediately. There was a sheet suspended in mid-air, floating as if there was a breeze pushing it, even though the windows were all closed.

    He had to thank the constant half-light at the manor and the distance that did not make Gordon see well that it was not a floating sheet, but a man wrapped in a sheet, blissfully asleep and unaware of the chaos he was causing.

    Clark had warned him about some of his sleep problems.

    Bruce had to come up with a story on the fly for the commissioner, and quickly.

    "My house is haunted," Bruce quietly told the commissioner, without batting an eyelid.

    Summary

    Clark had looked at him with those puppy dog eyes, biting his lip, wringing his hands, saying, "I know I'm asking a lot…" sounding so, so guilty, and Bruce had given in.

    Don't judge him, he was just a man, and his friend/date/boyfriend perhaps knew his weaknesses.

    That's how he found himself in the kitchen at 3 PM, with an eight-year-old staring at him as he drank apple juice through a straw, and Jason sitting across the table trying to do his homework.

    Keyword: trying.

    The twelve-year-old was actually waiting for something to happen that would drive Bruce crazy, and his anticipation was rewarded.

    "Are you my mother?" the boy suddenly asked, staring more intently at him with those ice-blue eyes.

    Bruce froze completely, while Jason barely held back his laughter.
