If you asked Clark, he'd say it's just Bruce's natural poise, something he was either born with or learned almost immediately, something that's been with him since well before Batman had a name or a costume. He's intensely controlled, and he's certainly no lummox no matter how many jokes are made, but he'll never quite have that poise. His own tendency has a gravitas to it, but not nearly the same level of elegance.

"Going to give you a backrub, like I said," Clark informs him, "though should you decide it's time for something else, I'm fairly sure I'll be pleased with the results."
