I heard that the suit worked. How are you?

[locked to steph n.]

I'm sorry I didn't check in sooner, how've you been?

[locked to the JL.]

I hope you all haven't missed me too much.

[locked to jim g.]

Hello, Gordon. I [...] wanted to let you know I'm coming back.

[locked to iris m.]

Iris?

[locked to selina k.]

[...] How does it feel to be back in the land of the living?

	Talked to the others yet? [Blink.] He's trying to stay busy. I get it, but I just wish he'd take himself into consideration for once. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Some of them. I think I should speak to Damian in person. [...] You're worried about balance? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Agreed. He really wants to see you, Bruce, even if he says otherwise. [Blink, blink.] I'm worried he's putting me first too often, and it might come back to bite us both in the ass. You took your time away from here, I took my time to get my head straight, but I know that he still doesn't want to be here. Or, more like he'd rather be in space than not.

~~I should have~~ I'll go see him. [...] If he doesn't want to be here, if he feels obligated, it's only going to get worse. I understand why he would want to put you first, but he needs to take care of himself as well. It's difficult to focus on other people when you still need to focus on yourself.

Maybe he doesn't have to leave. He loved this city once. He cared about it. Maybe he just needs to find that again, to remind himself of why.

	Don't mind him being a brat. That's the way he always is. [Blink, blink.] I know it's only going to get worse. That's what I'm worried about. I'm worried about him getting bitter and regretful and hating all this because he didn't take the time. Yeah, I just wish I knew what the fuck that was. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It took me a while to realize that. I'll try to remember. [...] It was difficult for me to leave. I'm sure it's difficult for him, too. It might be something he inevitably has to decide on his own. Before, what did he focus on most? What made him happy? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

He's older now though. He's lived more. I think it'll make him more prone to understanding you, Bruce. [Blink.] I just don't want that to happen when we start our family, you know? Him needing to get out and we've got kids wondering why dad is leaving for a while.

Work. The neighborhood. His right hand man and his family. I'm trying to remind him now. I might fuck it up royally but I'm trying.

	I hope so. [Cursor blink.] I know. That's entirely understandable, Stephanie. This is something he needs to work out before you two start a family. Not that I'm insinuating he should rush, but [...] I'm sure he wouldn't want that to happen any more than you do. Trying counts for a lot. It might make all the difference.

	Re: steph/bruce. forthem 2014-08-09 03:57 am UTC (link)
	He just wants you in his life. Promise. [...] But it's not something you can control, right? You tried to stay here, and you were miserable. It could come up any time. I hope you're right. [Blink, blink.] Am I allowed to ask about you now? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: steph/bruce. onerule 2014-08-09 05:15 pm UTC (link)
	I want him in mine, too. At least that's common ground. [...] I know. But I finally realized I couldn't go on like that, and so I left. I did what I needed to do. Staying and trying to force myself to fit where I felt like I didn't belong would only have made things worse. [...] You are. But I'm doing better. (Reply to this) (Parent)
