(sometimes that's not enough. Diana is not so naive that she doesn't have an idea of what that means. walking past victims of senseless war, hearing the atrocities committed in the name of a pointless victory, she can already understand why it would be difficult to believe in the goodness of men.
even she falters on occasion, yet it still seems so simple to her. how could humanity completely resist a god that would tempt them toward ruin?
it's a more complicated story than she nows, now. in time she'll learn. in time she'll find a way past the naiveté to a more grizzled interpretation. in fact years in her future Bruce Wayne had been a great part in seeing that men were worthy again. it's a path she has to rewalk, now; hopefully with less of the heartbreak.
she smiles, not quite as warm as before, yet still hopeful. she places a hand on his arm, and nods. ) Every fight is easier when you do not make it alone. ( and they have Clark with them, too. neither of them are alone at war with the world, though Diana suspects that's exactly what Bruce is used to. ) I won't keep you longer, Alan. I suspect there are more you intend to visit tonight.
( she can tell there's rations for more than just one in there. one for clark, and...? she wonders if there's more the Batman has collected under his wing. )
