It's a very fine line to walk and Bruce had always been careful about not tipping too far over to either side. Yet here he is feeling guilty because he's tugged a little too hard on Tim's heart strings. He could stop it if he wanted to and Tim would still be that loyal soldier. And it highlights to Bruce how unnecessary this really is. But that's where Bruce's problem lay. He didn't want to stop.
"Sure," Tim says, and closes the bathroom door behind him. He needs to
clean out, shower if he can manage to keep himself standing long enough to
do it properly, and then crawl into bed. He's certainly not expecting Bruce
to be there when he opens his eyes again. Something will come up that's
bigger, more important, and---
That's the thing, isn't it? Tim gets it. He's the same for most other
people. The Mission comes first. Before his own needs, before his own
wants, before love or sex or anything. But even Tim would make a single
exception. For Bruce.
[ooc: if you wanna continue to a different scene or have Bruce be
there when he wakes up, I'm totally down!!]
