Notes on Team: Superman has left for Metropolis. Dr. Mid-Nite seems to be staying in Gotham for several days - working with Leslie?
Bruce's Notes: Clark's not talking to me. I attempted to walk by myself today, and Clark discovered me collapsed on the floor. Then we started yelling at each other, and... well, he left, and we're not talking. Everyone else is giving me disapproving looks. Of course they are, who wants to know the person who hurt Superman? No one. But I'm not used to being helpless. To feeling helpless. I just want to... well, I don't know what I want to do. Get better overnight and go and see Harvey. And apologize to Clark and find him a present. All of which look increasingly like they won't happen soon. Well... maybe the apology can.
Pieter just stormed in and told me off. That was... interesting. People don't usually yell at me. But then I'm not being very sociable, am I? No one wants to be around a grumpy Bat. I'm just here in my bedroom in my bed with my laptop. Heh. Funny how technology is always the only thing I'm left with.
I'm going to write a letter to Clark. Apologize to him there, and ask Alfred if it can be taken to him. Because I am sorry. It's not fair that I always take everything out on Clark. He... He doesn't deserve any of it. And he certainly shouldn't forgive me as easily as he does, opening himself up for it all to happen again. But... I'm going to try to not do it again. I know that it won't ever happen again, but I need to learn to not be so selfish. To stop hurting the man I... love.
I could send him a e-mail of course, apologizing to him there. But... a letter is more appropriate. Much more difficult than just typing another e-mail. I'll ask him to stay away tonight. God knows he needs a break from this, from baby-sitting me. So does everyone. I'll try and make myself as unobtrusive as possible. And... I suppose I'll have to apologize to everyone else for upsetting them, too. Looks like I'm going to need a lot of paper.
Dick's Notes: Bruce, you are an IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stop pushing yourself, and just REST!!!!!!!! Okay? None of us hate you, of course we don't, so stop insulting us and just accept that we love you, okay? And if you ever do disappear, out of doing us a 'favor' then I will find you and I will hurt you. A lot. Very slowly. You said yourself you don't want Bats angry at you, so don't run the risk of it yourself. And stop blaming yourself for every single bad thing that ever happens in Gotham! I know that Gotham was worse before you became Batman, and all you've done is made an improvement and saved peoples lives. Really, blaming yourself for an earthquake??? How exactly could you have stopped it?
I'm going to blame all this on the drugs, which you are off... now! Thank god. You are totally weird when you're drugged up. But the letters were nice. :) Oh, and I told Harvey myself that you were okay, just healing up. So don't worry about that. Clark's coming back home very very soon, and will tell you off for doubting yourself. Tomorrow, you are going to get out of bed and downstairs and talk with us and then go outside and sit in the sunshine and appreciate a nice sunny spring day while Tim, Cass, Ace and I play football. Or Alfred will glare at you. Oh, and I didn't 'flee' back to New York. We had already agreed that I was leaving that morning. So there. :p
One question, though - how are people going to believe you've been on holiday in the Caribbean for 3 weeks if you don't have a tan when you go back to WE?
