True Love has many characteristics, and depending on which is portrayed can easily determine wether characters’ relationship with one another could be interpreted as being ‘true love’.
I found Bruce and John to potray many of these characteristics
John shows his attraction to Bruce earlier in the season. Wether it be interpreted as platonic he clearly views Bruce being an attractive and compatible partner for relationships in general. Bruce’s attraction to John revolves more around his certain infatuation with ‘criminally insane’. While most would keep a safe distance after an encounter with John, Bruce seeks it out.
John values honesty, so him seeking Bruce’s genuinity and complete trust shows he is willing to be close to him. Bruce is unsure of what John has to conceal but will trust John under dire situations.
The established trust between them leads to conversations about broad topics including such as coping with being 'in love’ and finding your true self. John opens up to Bruce about his insecurities and takes whatever advice Bruce has to offer, a sign of trust.
Love is about accepting someone for both their good and bad qualities. John is mentally unstable, has no memory of his past and no direction for his future. The negatives in his life seem to heavily outweigh the positives. Despite this Bruce can accept him. Bruce accepting John means that although John may not know his true self, Bruce knows he is worth having as a companion.
John may have his own defining of Justice, but his efforts are all for Bruce. John is willing to repay Bruce for accepting him by showing Bruce he is willing to help fight alongside him through even the most dangerous paths. His gain in confidence leads him to believe that him and Bruce could accomplish great things,but only when together.
Different choices lead down different paths, yet it doesn’t really alter what Love is in this story. True love means it’s unconditional, no matter the circumstances it will occur, and it certainly does here. John and Bruce are willing to accept that even if their situation clearly depicts a dead end for a functioning relationship, they accept that bond of theirs can’t be broken.

If you give the souls to the Devil and start working for him he eventually adopts cupboy and mugmug as children and they’re all one big happy family.
Batman: The Enemy Within - Episode 5
prob somethin like this
#MAKE THIS BOY THE HAPPIEST
So imagine Vigilante john getting patched up by Alfred after a particularly rough encounter with the agency, and Bruce comes up to John after Alfred heads up to make a few cups of tea for them all, and hands him a small envelope.
Inside is a ‘get well soon’ card that Bruce signed, one very similar to the one John got Bruce at the funeral.
Bruce would look so awkward and unsure while john would be absolutely giddy with happiness!! I bet Alfred would walk back in while John is jumping up to wrap Bruce in a big hug, and Alfred would have to reprimand him to lie down until he’s had some time to finish getting patched up and rest…
I just really love thinking of John being happy,,
