Summary: Jim was suddenly thrust back in time to what felt like years ago, but was really only a handful of months. He vividly recalled the man whose only crime was shared blood with a psychopath who had looked at Bruce with stars in his eyes and hadn’t been able to do anything other than follow him to the gates of Hell. But more than that, Jim remembered the words that Bruce had uttered to garner that response. He’d been impressed with the young man’s attitude, but he hadn’t been able to ignore the (gentle and well-meaning) calculation behind Bruce’s words. “You have a brilliant mind.” Oh, that clever kid. ~ Jim, Harvey, and Bruce get captured while trying to take down Jeremiah. Oswald is five minutes from storming in and rescuing them, and Bruce takes it upon himself has to make sure Jeremiah is preoccupied for that long.

Recommendation: Jim sees it, but only for a second than he talks himself out of seeing clearly. Oswald does no such thing, and I can't help but like him having a soft spot for the younger murderous romantic's plight as well as the object of said admiration. Barb, Bruce and the baby are the cutest damn thing ever too. Basically Wayleska, but from outside perspectives.
