Summary: Bruce begins to visit John regularly in Arkham. John isn’t the only one who starts to desperately depend on the visits.
AN: Episode 5 tore my heart into tiny little pieces and then the post credits scene stapled a couple of the pieces back together. I guess this fic has been one of my ways of coping with it. This was based on my personal playthrough, so Alfred has left and Tiffany is no longer in the picture, leaving Bruce pretty much all alone except for John. A lot of this fic is based on my own headcanons as to where John and Bruce might be heading in the future, but I hope that some of you still get some enjoyment and emotional healing out of it.
The full story is available under the cut. Fair warning: this one is pretty long.
VISITING HOURS
Bruce knew that after everything that had happened between himself and John Doe, most people, or at least most sane people would have stayed as far away from him as they possibly could.
He couldn’t though. No matter how much he told himself it would be the smart thing to do, Bruce just couldn’t bring himself to stay away. He cared about John far too much to do that. Besides, what did the two of them have now if they didn’t have each other?
The orderly that had shown Bruce to John’s new cell announced his presence, and Bruce found himself suddenly gripped by a fresh wave of anxiety. It hadn’t really let up since he had left the manor that morning, which was now far too still and too empty for his liking. Bruce still wasn’t entirely sure how John was going to react to Bruce’s presence; whether he would welcome and accept Bruce’s visit, or whether he would simply tell Bruce to go away and leave him the hell alone. Bruce wasn’t sure what he was going to do if it was the latter.
A latch on the door slid back, revealing the smallest of windows through which John could peek through to see the outside world.
“Bruce!” he exclaimed, his eyes immediately lighting up as soon as they came to rest on him.
Bruce adjusted his tie, still feeling a little nervous, but then John’s face shifted into a wide grin; one of pure joy, and Bruce felt as though a ton of bricks had just been lifted from his shoulders; as though the darkest corners of the hallway had suddenly gotten just that little bit brighter.
Even if he had nothing else then at least he still had this.

True Love has many characteristics, and depending on which is portrayed can easily determine wether characters’ relationship with one another could be interpreted as being ‘true love’.
I found Bruce and John to potray many of these characteristics
John shows his attraction to Bruce earlier in the season. Wether it be interpreted as platonic he clearly views Bruce being an attractive and compatible partner for relationships in general. Bruce’s attraction to John revolves more around his certain infatuation with ‘criminally insane’. While most would keep a safe distance after an encounter with John, Bruce seeks it out.
John values honesty, so him seeking Bruce’s genuinity and complete trust shows he is willing to be close to him. Bruce is unsure of what John has to conceal but will trust John under dire situations.
The established trust between them leads to conversations about broad topics including such as coping with being 'in love’ and finding your true self. John opens up to Bruce about his insecurities and takes whatever advice Bruce has to offer, a sign of trust.
Love is about accepting someone for both their good and bad qualities. John is mentally unstable, has no memory of his past and no direction for his future. The negatives in his life seem to heavily outweigh the positives. Despite this Bruce can accept him. Bruce accepting John means that although John may not know his true self, Bruce knows he is worth having as a companion.
John may have his own defining of Justice, but his efforts are all for Bruce. John is willing to repay Bruce for accepting him by showing Bruce he is willing to help fight alongside him through even the most dangerous paths. His gain in confidence leads him to believe that him and Bruce could accomplish great things,but only when together.
Different choices lead down different paths, yet it doesn’t really alter what Love is in this story. True love means it’s unconditional, no matter the circumstances it will occur, and it certainly does here. John and Bruce are willing to accept that even if their situation clearly depicts a dead end for a functioning relationship, they accept that bond of theirs can’t be broken.
Ok but you know what also makes me cry, besides aziraphale's Hand?
