    Summary

    The Bruce-mood. By far, the worst case of Bruce to deal with.

    The previous victims suffering from Bruce-mood would all agree that they prefer lecturing over this chaotic version of the silent
    treatment.

    While in Bruce’s presence, the other bats would also ostracize the outcast in fear of also becoming part of the target of the mood until
    Bruce’s approval to reintegrate them back in the fold.

    There is no cure... unless you ask Jason.

    Or, five times that Jason asked Bruce for a hug to help his family, and one time he asked for himself

    Summary

    Jason finds out that Batman didn't replace him and actually did try to kill the Joker after his death from an impromptu visit to the manor, only stopping because Superman stopped him, and decides to make that Clark Kent's problem.

    Queue Bruce no longer getting murder threats, being very concerned over this fact, and Clark facing a very long series of unfortunate events no one seems to believe is actually happening.
