Ask and you shall receive! I should have read both stories before commenting, I guess. This is wonderful! I'll just file it under wish-fulfillment and be content.

I agree with Tim: Jay should have invited him along. Still, It's wonderful to see that he hasn't forgotten Rosa and Manny. And that Bruce isn't unaware of them. Of course he isn't. He's the goddam batman.

I really like this series. I eagerly await the next installment.
