[Leaving has occurred in Bruce's mind more than a few times at this point. To be fair, its been on his mind for more than a few months already. Recent events have made him consider it again, but--its true, he can't leave. Not when he still has obligations beholden to him. People who still need his help.]
There is more to what I did besides passing out elfroot and wrapping a sprain. [His voice is just a little tight. Bruce doesn't like the fact that what he did in the past is belittled like this; just because he has reason to use magic now doesn't invalidate what he did before. Years of choosing this life, if anything, has given Bruce more of a reason to live without the need of his magic. He's managed it all this time and he sees no real reason to change it.]
