WHO: John Blake & Maria Hill (With special guest appearances by ~spoiler alert~)
WHAT: Extreme unresolved tension, alcohol and hidden histories.
WHEN: Friday Night.
WHERE: The Stark Gala.
WARNINGS: Probably cursing, alcohol use, sexual references and muffins. (No not really muffins.)
The last thing John wanted to do was be here. Bruce's parents were killed, and he shouldn't be wasting his time at a goddamned black-tie gala.
But he knew, at his gut level, that something might happen here tonight, and without Bruce attending someone should at least keep an eye on things. Maybe Wayne would want a report later, if something went down.
Maybe it was just keeping up appearances.
Still, he found himself drinking more than normal. Stark had a hell of a bar set up, and needless to say there were a lot of issues hitting him upside the head in the aftermath of the Wayne murder. Maybe alcohol wasn't a solution, but it was at least a bandaid at the moment.
Just had to make it through the night. All he had to do was watch.
