Fics like EVEN THE WISE CANNOT SEE ALL ENDS

“Why would I? You know damn well, Clark. Why the hell wouldn’t I? I can’t be Batman anymore, and what the fuck is Bruce Wayne any good for? I don’t want to be Bruce, and— and if I’m not Batman and I don’t want to be Bruce, what else is left?” Clark feels like his ribcage is being pulled apart, like someone has wedged the jaws of life between his bones and nicked his heart in the process. His chest is flooding, and it’s difficult to speak when his throat is filled with blood. “Be Dick’s father,” he says, quietly, desperately, frantically. “Be his father, Bruce. He needs you.” *** Or: A man who has spent his life in mourning never quite learned how to grieve.
