    Summary

    Bruce has come across what might be the strangest thing: Superman is crying—well, a smaller version of him is crying, and he is at a loss on how… to proceed when faced with such a bizarre event. Superman doesn’t cry. And, Superman definitely does not look so small, and defeated.

    Or which, Bruce meets Superman a total number of four times throughout a single timeline, and it is not an encounter he can simply bury and toss. It is a revelation.

    Summary

    Bruce hugged his brother Thomas. "I'll be okay," Bruce whispered, though his voice sounded hollow.

    "That man murdered Mom and Dad!" Thomas shouted, his face flushed with rage and grief. "What's he going to do to you?"

    "Nothing. Don't cry," Bruce replied, trying to compose himself. He turned to Alfred and hugged him. The old man looked at him with eyes full of sorrow. "You've grown so much, young Bruce," Alfred whispered. "I only wish for you a happy marriage and a home full of children."

    "How can you be happy with a psychopath? After killing our parents, he dragged their bodies all over Gotham," Thomas spat, his anger barely masking his terror. "Don't go, Bruce! You can escape."

    Bruce sighed, a sigh heavy with the weight of a crumbling kingdom. “Gotham has no money, there’s no food, people are dying of smallpox, and the criminals are worse. If I marry him, the Empire will send help. Besides, our uncle has already decided; it’s for the best.”

    “I don’t want her! I don’t want her help!” Thomas shouted.

    B is acting strange, and Clark might just be too busy worrying about this Bruce Wayne fella to do much about it.

    Summary

    Someone at the Daily Planet wrote a hate piece on Bruce Wayne. Clark read the whole thing at his kitchen table with his glasses on and a red pen in hand.
     
    He found one spelling mistake, three possible grammar mistakes, five complete falsities, and three hundred words of utter bull crap.
     
    He didn’t personally know Mr. Wayne, but he’d been to several charity galas and been in the same room as him. He was ditzy, self indulgent, and possibly shallow to his core, sure. He was, however, not ill intentioned, money hungry, or disregarding of others. He had multiple adopted children and held charity galas for every organization under Earth’s yellow sun, for God’s sake.
     
    Clark couldn’t stand bad journalism. So, he set out to right this wrong.
