(Takes place post vigilante route, might continue..? Idk)
“Visitor for John Doe”
John lifted his head after hearing the announcement, apparently someone thought he was actually worth being visited. It had been several days (or perhaps weeks? Hard to keep count) since the incidents and, quite frankly, he wasn’t holding up well at Arkham.
He peaked through his cell door to find none other than Bruce, he was actually there, intending to see him.
“Bruce!”
The cell door was open and Bruce made his way in to greet his friend. He wasn’t quite sure of what he would do once he reunited with John, but he couldn’t rid of all the guilt that had been building up inside him since their last meeting. Bruce accepted one thing for certain, his feelings for John Doe were real and his need to protect him has and will continue to remain.
“I’m so glad you could visit me here Bruce! I’ve been wanting to see you again ever since I got here, and here you are! Wanting to come visit me all by yourself!..Or is it someone else that I should be concerned of?”
John’s tone from being somewhat optimistic to critical made Bruce feel more on edge than he already was. He was prepared to take any sort of beating from John if it meant atoning for all the ways he wronged him, yet frankly John’s words hurt in more ways than any physical fight could.
“No one’s pulling any strings now John, I came here to visit you because I wanted to, because I care. I don’t plan on leaving your side any time soon, especially when your in this position.”
John was clearly taken back by Bruce’s sudden statement, and Bruce himself knew what he just said had sounded almost nothing like him. Having Alfred’s constant hospitable nature seemed to inspire Bruce to try the same method of comforting on John, who always needed constant reassurance. Seeing John’s heartfelt smile afterwards made Bruce feel sorts of fuzziness inside, confident that he just may be the one to bring back John Doe, the only man who could bring a smile to his face even under hardship.
“Well now that you’re here, what is it you’ve been wanting to know?”
“How have you been holding up?”
Bruce knew it was risky asking anything related to past events, he wasn’t sure whether it would tick off something in John ,but he needed to grasp John’s current state of mind in order to understand how it is he’ll deal with mending to their friendship.
“Honestly Bruce, it’s been feeling a lot less like returning home and more like a prison. I know I said I missed Arkham at times but that changed when I came back, I miss being outside, full of freedoms and opportunity, Bruce and John taking the world by storm!” John giggled at the thought.“..Returning here has given me too much time thinking alone, Bruce. I’ve been so busy reading other people that I forgot to read myself. I had time to reflect, and now I see that I’ll have to come to terms with that…Arkham is truly where I belong.”
Bruce got up and suddenly grabbed hold of John, looking straight into green eyes that were once so full of light suddenly seeming to fade.
“Don’t you ever think that about yourself, John. You’re not a criminal who belongs in some padded cell, you’re special and have become the most significant person I’ve ever met,and you’ve changed my life in so many ways I’ve become unsure of which direction im heading if you weren’t beside me.”
Bruce held John’s hand between his own and gave it a slight squeeze
“I’m going to be with you every step of the way John, I won’t ever leave your side. Not now, not ever. I need your strength to get through this. Promise me that, John. Promise me you we’ll make it out together.”
John jolted up had tears streaming down his face as he hugged Bruce tightly, holding on to him for dear life. Bruce could feel just how many emotions he must be going through and hugged back, just as eager to feel John’s embrace.
“I promise you Bruce, when I said I wouldn’t let you down, I still stand by that.. Oh gosh, I’m so sorry for everything Bruce, the fact that you’re actually here and still by my side.”
John took a moment to breathe and gather his thoughts
“Promise me, Bruce, promise you’ll visit me everyday, and never leave my side.”
“I promise, John. No matter what happens, I’ve got your back.”
Knowing they had each other was all they needed. And they were content with that.
