Summary
Post-MoS AU: A year after Black Zero, the Metropolis city government decides to hold a commemorative gala, with Superman as a guest of honor. And after a year of trying to gather intelligence on Superman without all that much success to speak of, Bruce Wayne is definitely going to attend. Except it turns out he may not be the only one with plans for Superman, and there might be a few other pieces of the puzzle that he's been missing.
Or: Bruce Wayne's illustrated, step-by-step guide to how not to shake hands.

How Not to Shake Hands. Post MoS/BvS AU where Luthor's plot to pit Batman and Superman against each other fails before it can get off the ground. Batman and Superman have more meetings, as Batman and Bruce Wayne, and Bruce has to come to the reluctant conclusion that maybe Superman isn't as alien as he's determined for him to be. As they uncover Luthor's plot together, there are a few hiccups along the way, mostly due to Bruce's insistence on proving Superman to be a ticking time bomb and refusal to acknowledge the humanity he sees in him, not until he's forced to. When Luthor springs a much smaller, much more impromptu trap on Clark Kent, Bruce is forced to come to terms with the fact that Superman is just a man, no matter how super, and that he has come to care for him a lot more than he let himself believe.

"Together, then," he murmurs, when they break apart long enough to let him. "All right? Together," and he holds out a hand.
"All right," Bruce agrees, after a moment, and shakes it.
Now that was a ride. A better alternative to how the move played out, for sure
