( it is difficult, to hear of a life she has yet to live. especially with such dire consequences, the loss of a friend she's only barely begun to meet. Clark still lives, here, even though he's shut away in the pod before them. Diana breathes an unhappy note, looking at the silent face once more. )

Whatever fate you've lived, we have a chance to change it, here.

( Clark isn't gone, he's right in front of them. once he wakes, she's quite determined to never see him in such a state again. Diana can't imagine what would be strong enough to bring the man of steel to his knees, but she's equally determined that whatever it was, it does not reach the only other ally she has left. )

We must be careful, Bruce. Do not walk where I cannot follow. ( it is rare for her to be afraid, to know the weight of loss. she's not immune, though, and perhaps she is not so removed from human emotion that she cannot fear losing someone else. )

[ Their power is not in reflecting bullets, waving magic lassoes, or flying. It's when they say what they do, there is a part of him nods and says yes, I will be with you when you do this, even if it brings you to the end of the world. Humanity needs that simplicity. Bruce has missed seeing it. ]

[ And humanity needs people like him too. ]

That's my line, [ he murmurs wryly. All the places she's gone alone, and how they exhausted her heart but did not dim her light. ]

( a sad smile runs at her features, and she shakes her head. )

Good. Then we are of one mind.

( she does tend to waltz too easily into danger, even knowing she is not invincible. seeing Clark like this cements that even she must be careful. she will help no one if she ends up in stasis again herself.

Diana pauses to look at Clark, one more time. in the short stretch of silence, she suspects that Bruce has been here for far longer than he would ever admit to her, and she imagines Clark would not want him to linger here alone. ) I am taking that as a promise, you know. And a promise is unbreakable. ( well, to an amazon, they are. never make promises to an amazon. she takes Bruce's arm again, just as she did when they arrived. )

Luckily for you, where I would walk next is my apartment. I think we will both manage it if we go together.
