it’s the basic way to focus your batman adaptation on the creation of the batman persona, it’s the fun way to focus it on the creation of the bruce wayne persona

it seems battinson might go this way — in the first movie batman is already established and by the end of it bruce has discovered what kind of symbol he wants batman to be. in the second one i want that emo to try to figure out how to be playboy bruce wayne. i want him going to a charity gala and five minutes in locking himself in the bathroom freaking out. i want him pulling up to wayne enterprises in an armani only to go back home and immediately pull on his ratty nirvana t-shirt. i want this man to go through his personal social hell all in the name of making gotham better not only as batman but also as bruce wayne

All Francesca did was holding her hand and Michaela decided those feelings were too much for her to handle and proceeded to leave the country without telling anyone. Both heartbreaking and fucking hilarious to a degree
