That story somehow manages to give me both the chills and the warm-fuzzies.
My other favorite is "The Lesson", where Scary Bat God talks to wee Bruce in the dark, and Brucie is born.
Heehee. Brucie. My (omg even closer to done) Bang has Tim doing an impression of Brucie that makes Kon cringe in a way that has nothing to do with getting his feet stepped on.
Kon's mouth twisted. "Brucie?" he asked. He couldn't mean Batman, because no way would anyone give Batman a stupid nickname like that.
Tim stepped back a little and changed his grip, and.. shifted, somehow, his whole posture changing. "Ha ha ha, tiger!" He yanked Kon around in an uncomfortable circle, dragging him on stunned, stumbling feet. "You're just an *amazing* dancer, you know that?" He stepped on Kon's foot - hard enough that Kon was glad to be invulnerable. "Oops. Sorry, lovely, it's all this champagne! You know, you should come skiing with me and the boys, sometime. There's this *darling* little chalet in Switzerland - or is it Sweden? Which one has the skiing? I always get them confused. One of them has skiing and the other has meatballs."
