abuseFrickin' awesome. The mystery of Bruce Wayne has touched everyone, hasn't it? It kind of makes the world seem... a little bit... fascinating, don't you think?

abuseWow. It's been forever since I've read your stuff. And I forgot how much I love it! Goodness gracious. And from now one I'll be reading more and more of it again! I really like the interesting outside point of view, Bruce Wayne to the people outside of him... Kind of how we would view him if we didn't know him like we do.

abuseExcellent interpolation on the movie, Phillipa! Neat and tight, with wonderful characterization. Randy is a fantastic invention, and Bruce is spot on. Good work!

abuseFor a minute there I was afraid you were going to kill Randy. That would have been horrible. I really don't like people like Craig and Jake. What jerks. Anyway, this was very well written. Good job. :-D

abuseExcellent story. Very different. Really enjoyed it...I could see it happening in my head. I laughed out loud at the parts with Bruce heckling Dr. Fitz and conducting on the roof. Awesome job!

abuseHello!

Wow, this was an amazing ONE-SHOT, concerning Bruce's Life or at least, last day(s) at the University. The "in medias res" beginning that set up the flashback and the rest of the story, was a nice touch (especially since I recently watched M:I:II ^_^). Lisen to me, acting like I just stumbled upon it. . . . okay, I did, but that's besides the point! I really loved the description of Collage-Frat Boy life that Bruce had emersed himself in, if just for the sake of looking the part without being bothered. I also liked how the story was told from the point of view from Randy Morris, the boy who would be Bruce Wayne's friend but never got the chance. While I was wondering when I would get a glimpse into Bruce's head during the narrative, I didn't complain long, 'cause Randy was a cool character whom one could really connect with. The brothers Craig and Jake Torres, were a riot most the time (right up until Craig got sore with Bruce) and Bruce's unpleasant demeanor, mingled with off-key singing and the amazing gift of "liquor-influence-control", was welcome, if not creepy.


All in all I enjoyed this story!
Keep up the good work!

PS: "Broken Serenity" (My Missing-Scene Challenge-fic) is now up and posted.

[Favorite Qoutes]:

“She was with me,” Craig snarled, grabbing Bruce’s collar, but the taller man shook him off easily.

“Hey,” Randy snapped, placing himself between them. “It’s not worth fighting over.”

“She was with him,” Jake agreed, his arm still around Shawnda’s waist.

“What if I don’t want to be with him?” Tani snapped.

“She doesn’t want to be with you,” Jake echoed, looking at his brother.

abuseOh good honk. Watching a drunk Bruce singing from the rooftops is that last thing I expected to be doing when I woke up this morning. ;)

I like Randy. :)

*sighs and shakes head* What is it about young adults that makes them self-destruct like that? I know (kinna) why Bruce was doing it -- after all, hatred, vengence and depression aren't known to make a person overly cheery; but those other two clowns and people like them are just beyond me. Just sleep through the freaking lecture, idiots! It'll make your life *much* simpler!

Oh well; there's no accounting for common sense and the lack thereof, I guess. ^_^

Nice story. :) I tried my hand at this challenge; but I didn't make it very far. I couldn't imagine the hide-in-the-shadows-Bruce-Wayne that I'm used to doing anything big enough to be asked to leave. I think you found something. ;)
And once again your characterizations were darn good. Your idiots were idiotic, your Bruce was dark and gloomy while still preserving the realistic actions of a drunk, and I was very glad to see those two *ahem* ladies leave the scene. ^_^

Bravo, and Happy Thanksgiving to you, too. :)

abuseThis was good. I can so see Bruce getting completely smashed and then deciding to race around the rooftops of a New England town. Guess heroes start early. Speaking of heroes, I liked Randy. He was a great character, very realistic. The brothers were funny, too. A good take on what might have happened.
PS- Is your muse still in cranberry? Perhaps he'll move on to green after Thanksgiving. Evergreen is very nice this time of year. ; )
