Rating: PG
Pairing: Clark/Bruce

Author's Note: For the drabble meme. tmelange's prompt of 'first time meeting and shaking hands'
Summary: Superman is at a boring function when the monotony is broken by strange man.



Kal sighs, bored with the situation. Superman smiles, not letting it show as he shakes hand after hand of wealthy business man and woman.

A throat clears. Standing before him is yet another man, looking at him expectantly. Superman smiles apologetically.

The man smiles slightly, and Kal finds himself smiling for no reason, a true smile, a real smile. The dark haired man's eyes gleam, sapphire blue.

They shake hands, Clark smiling at how at odds the man's limp handshake is with his solid, strong body. His smile widens, and the man's eyes twinkle from the light of a chandelier.

They let go of each others hands, and Superman's smile turns wry.

I'll keep your secret.

The man inclines his head, before moving away.

Superman goes back to shaking hands.

Aww, Clark knows who Brucie is! :)

I'm... not sure how much Clark knows, actually. If he knows that he's Batman, or if he just knows that he's not a dumb playboy. *shrugs* Clark doesn't want to tell me... lol

Identity porn, yay! Whether Clark knows who Bruce is or not, I love that Bruce went to shake his hand! he must be laughing himself silly after he leaves :P that, and it's a huge show of trust to go and expose himself to recognition. I love the image of Bruce in formal clothes and Clark in uniform. So pretty!

Yeah... I don't know what's going on with him! lol

It's always a pretty image to have one of them in costume, and the other not.

I'm really glad you liked this, Mina! :D
