Wow, that was evil. A reversal, like you said, of what everyone would expect, but one that makes a lot of sense, in a way. You can understand that Clark, too, expects Bruce to be the one to go, and decides to act preemptively to protect himself. But, damnit, that's no excuse for making Bruce go out and freeze himself to death in the Gotham snow! For that alone, he should be hit repeatedly over the head with a Kryptonite hammer! I'm glad Bruce decides to give him another chance, but I'm not sure *I* would have.
And I'm rapidly coming to realise that I need to start reading JSA, because I keep seeing people like Alan in fics like this, and loving them, and being frustrated by having little real ideas of who they are.

Thank you for a very bittersweet Valentine's fic!
