“ i found salvation last night ” / @toendwar
HE DOESN’T KNOW WHAT TO DO. Throat dry, and FEET stand still. He is ALL awkwardness, and MELENCHOLY BLEEDS. How he wishes he could be ANYONE else in this moment, WILL he ever be what SHE needs ? Bruce doesn’t want to think about that BIG ambiguous question. Thing is ? He’ll constantly disappoint, NOT out of want but out of sheer DUTY. He’s SUPPOSED to be this billionaire, this LARGER than life figure, and PERHAPS. PERHAPS if he had been dealt a different cards he’d be a DIFFERENT man. DIFFERENT. The word resounds, and FILLS up headspace. He looks at the woman who is in his STUDY now, and he wishes he was WORTHY of such words. Then again he’s doing what he does BEST, he ASSUMES.
‘ I’m not who you want ---- I look at you and I see a woman who deserves more than I can GIVE ” WORDS heavy as he tries to be as eloquent as possible, ‘ I--I I’m not saying this to UPSET you or to be UNGRATEFUL but, what I’m saying Diana is TRUTH ---- SIMPLE , to the point ’ IF only she met him a few years later. He would become COMFORTABLE with the man he was meant to become. NOW ? He’s awkward, UNCOMFORTABLE with playing GOD when it comes to ARKHAM. Bruce looks once more at Diana, ‘ Salvation is not PERMANENT. I am slipping away each day . . . ’ He talks about his training, what he had ONCE believed. Bruce Wayne is going through a METAMORPHOSIS. ‘ THIS is how you can know me ’
