Tolstoy would’ve written a banger Bruce Wayne fic
#inspired by me reading how much land does a man need for the nth time#bruce is tired and exhausted#at his absolute worst when#he accidentally challenges the devil by saying he wouldn’t fear the devil himself if he had help protecting his city#the devil hears the boast and thinks to give Bruce one protector after another to get him in his power#first it’s dick and Bruce becomes happy and content. he has hope in his life and help for his city. It’s more than he ever dreamed.#but then he grows greedy and becomes more strict the older dick gets and barely gives him any room to grow. he demands more from him#until one day dick leaves him but not fully#as he becomes Nightwing#but now that Bruce has known the joy of having a robin he can’t go without#the devil strikes again and Jason comes into the picture while dick is characteristically unable to abandon Bruce wholly#but Bruce isn’t content with this either. he compares Jason to dick and wants more#the devil comes again with Tim as a replacement just as Bruce almost escapes him by refusing to take on another Robin#but then Bruce grows discontent again#he pushes himself to edge and dies from the strain of it all#with each protector came another person for him to protect in turn#Gotham goes up in flames in the aftermath of Bruce’s death#so how many protectors does a city need? one. as long as it’s Bruce Wayne#something like that idk#dc#the themes are muddled I fear
