All of this is GREAT author-anon. The free and easy Clark, the angsty Bruce, the sheer mental gymnastics he has to go through to accept a party invitation. <3 <3 <3 <3
The identity porn alone in this section will be enough to satisfy my identity-porn needs for quite some time (until the next part comes out). I love how this time, it's Clark pulling Bruce into his world. It's a much more modest party, but it's no less thrilling to have them out in the world, being Bruce and Clark where people can totally see, and Bruce can feel that exquisite terror of Clark increasingly thinking 'yeah, I could go for that later.' AUGH Bruce being SO RESIGNED to sex, but also dragging his heels, and at the same time leering/coming on to Clark.
I wonder how Clark's dealing with all of these YES/NO signals. He probably just stores those 'NO' moments for later, for when things don't fit. Because Bruce's YESes are so strategically deployed to try to cancel out any of the slippage of his persona. Take a cab back. Oh Bruce. *fondly rolls eyes at him*
One of the things that struck me the most vividly about this part of the fill is that I actually hear Henry Cavill's voice when you write Clark.
It was right here:
Clark grins and takes his arm, grip firm and warm just above Bruce's elbow. "Funny you should say that."
"What are you—Clark, someone's going to see—Clark!"
And it just bowled me over. I LOVE LOVE LOVE authors who can so completely inhabit their characters' voices that they come to life on the page.
Ugh let me just. Yes. Okay. (I'm re-reading this fill as I comment.)
WHEN YOUR CLARK LAUGHS THE WORLD LIGHTS UP WITH SHEER DELIGHT.(And Bruce feels All Of The Angst.)
PS: I need a movie about doesn't-take-anyone's-guff-or-sass!Perry. I was DELIGHTED how well you captured him. And now I'm going to steal this phrase:
"...because nobody else is taking home your whoops-you-weren't-dead leftovers."
and bide my time, to spring it on my family at the next family gathering. xD
Re: FILL: as to which may be the true; Bruce/Clark, identity porn (10/?)
