I smell some Bruce sabotage....although, upon re-reading. Hm. I'm not sure Bruce's need to protect Clark outweighs his distaste at interfering with his career like that.
Ah, you're the only person to catch that possibility and mention it so far! *grin* I confess I felt like you, that it was both in and out of character for Bruce, so I left it vague. But...who exactly uploaded the video to Youtube, I wonder? :)
I LOVE that Bruce is peripherally always paying attention to Clark and monitoring him. So Battish.
This chapter is one of the most Battish so far for Bruce, isn't it? Like you say below, the fact that he's keeping such close watch on Clark is so very Bruce...
Uh huh. Sweet deal with Alfred more likely.
You just know Alfred has a silkscreening machine (yes, in the basement with the training equipment) and can turn out some shirts in no time...
Thank you for the typo catch! And indeed, those bills are very often not fake (depending on how much the kid looks like they might need it...)
GOD, doesn't he drive me crazy! When I realized what he'd done here I was just... o_O Oh, Bruce...
That sounds silver age to me? Am I right?
It's actually oddly older than that, it's from old movie melodramas, what the villain was supposed to say when defeated by the hero. :) It does sound very old-school comics, though...
EEK! I heard his animated voice in my head there. And saw his eyebrow of doooooooom. :-)
Yesssss, SO animated Lex, my absolute favorite. *grin* I'm so glad you enjoyed, I JUST finished the next chapter and will hope to have it betaed soon!

Oh, Bruce! Obsessive compulsive sneaky subtle ... man. ARGH!
