Bruce Wayne is admittedly a little bit of a control freak.

He's such a meticulous planner that some may joke and say that his superpower is planning, because even his plans have plans. He's got trust issues up the wazoo, and he might also be considered somewhat of a loner. It is easier, after all, to rely on himself and only himself to get the job done properly at the end of the day.

This is why, even in something as tumultuous as the Court of Public Opinion, Bruce needs to maintain some semblance of control even through the most ridiculous means possible.

And what was one of these so-called means?

Only a reality TV show aptly titled, 'Make It Wayne,' a name so utterly ridiculous that only Richard could get away with the suggestion alone. The whole premise of the show is elementary. It's an incredibly invasive look into the daily life and routine of a certain idiotic billionaire playboy who just so happens to be named Bruce.

Or if one prefers, then 'Brucie' works just fine too.

"Do you remember today's script?" He asked, hands meticulously brushing off imaginary dust off of his kid’s clothes for the umpteenth time. No, he wasn't nervous — The Dark Knight doesn't get nervous, and any claims of so-called 'projection' from Alfred were simply false. "It's okay if you're feeling a bit anxious, chum. The camera crew said that they'll leave you alone if you need some space, just say the word."

A million thoughts are racing in his head right now — Was this outlandish idea of a daytime television show asking a little too much from those he treasured the most? Could he even force himself to constantly play as his 'Brucie' persona multiple times a week?

'This is all for the mission,' Bruce reminded himself, yet again.

Because no one will be able to think that the Caped Crusader and Brucie Wayne are the same people, not after accidentally pouring water all over his expensive designer suit for the sake of television ratings.
