This is true, he did say that, and didn't really ever realize what was between them. (oooh. Awesome. That's going to be really interesting!) Also very true that Bruce wouldn't be/isn't talking to anyone about how much he's hurting. ...and yeah. that does make sense. Bruce is snarking, but not outright rejecting him, so he can't really mean it. Oh, Clark.
Yeah. Cold and distant is Bruce's default setting, after all.
*nods* I wondered if that might have something to do with it. I side with you on that reading of his behavior, too. I think it's the most reasonable explanation for what happens with him. ...Hopefully he gets slammed over the head with a cluex4 soon, so that he can start getting better.
(and this time it somehow posted in the wrong place.)
