It’s Fan Art Friday and here is a piece called “Lay Here” by Remidar featuring Selina and Bruce that made my heart flutter. SHE IS WEARING A HELLO KITTY SHIRT! Lovely.
“No offense, you don’t strike me as a nice person.” - Bruce, to Selina
“I hardly knew my parents as people. But suddenly I knew the world. It was hard and cold and dark and lawless. Its face was fierce and beastial. The only face I had with which to glare back at it… was utterly inadequate.”

So, this little moment is adorable all on its own.
But the thing that kills me about this is the way Selina straight up punches Bruce to get his attention. Like, she doesn’t tap him lightly on the shoulder or say his name or just something like, “Hey, here, take it.” Selina just silently and forcefully punches him in the arm so he’ll take her quarter.
Also, the look on her face is just too damn precious. Because when she first pulls out the coin, she’s smiling just the slightest bit. Almost like she wants to appear nicer, like she wants to be that person Bruce thinks she isn’t. But Selina Kyle isn’t a patient girl. She can’t wait a few extra seconds for Bruce to turn back around and see the coin she’s offering him.
No, instead she punches him in the arm and immediately stares at the ground before he can look at her. She doesn’t make eye contact, she doesn’t apologize, she doesn’t let him see even a trace of a smile on her lips.
Because Selina is guarded and defensive and she doesn’t like to admit when she’s wrong. So, in this case, she let’s her actions speak louder than her words, no matter how impatient those actions may seem.

Am I the only one who thinks Wayne Manor looks like Lara Croft’s mansion?
“No harmony or integration. No speed or grace. My body knows what to do, but it’s forgotten how…Got to pull my mind away from the end of my goal… stop thinking and exist for the moment, in the here and now. Relax and take each step in its time…Learn to absorb acceptable and necessary losses – to achieve every available gain… and to prevail, even poorly… but at least to prevail.” - Bruce Wayne; after recovering from his fight with Bane
