Ah. That's better.

Something to alight on the field of landmines that is his entire person; implying Bruce, who nearly succeeded in killing Superman, needs this corn-fed moron to feel sorry for him, lists towards insulting. (Even though he was the one to bring it up, even though any implication there might be that Clark is lacking, because he nearly fell to this broken old man, or that he finds him worthy of inquiry. Even though Bruce is pitifully, embarrassingly enamored with him. Yes.)

To counter the inherent clumsiness in control, Bruce slows him down further. Focusing purely on how it feels. The movement, not Bruce's hands on his skin; he wonders distantly if his senses make small things more intense, or if he needs to get hit by a bus to feel anything. There's a method to tai chi's madness and this isn't quite it, but the principle is the same. Pay attention.

"Not particularly," is deadpan.
