    Summary

    Bruce is impossible, stubborn, willfully self-destructive, and so self-sacrificing it's a wonder he hasn't suffocated under the weight of it. And Clark is stupidly, dizzyingly, crazy about him.

    Or, post-Justice League, five surprising and intriguing things Clark learns about Bruce (and the time he decides to do something with all of his new knowledge.)

    Summary

    Alfred sighed and closed the book around one finger to keep his place. "Master Bruce. Please tell me you aren't going to that horrid little club in the Narrows again."

    For all that he was Batman, trained in the art of bald-faced lying, Bruce managed to shuffle his feet and twitch his eyes toward the front door suspiciously. "I'm… not going to the horrid little club in the Narrows?"

    "Yet, here you are, dressed for the club," said Alfred flatly.

    Fed up with Bruce's playboy act, Alfred signs him up for an exclusive dating service, hoping that he will at the very least make a friend. On the other side of the bay, Lois gifts Clark with a voucher for that very same service, insisting that he needs to move on from their mutual breakup.

    Neither one of them really wants a relationship, but they do want their loved ones to be happy. So they come to a mutually beneficial agreement.

    It very quickly becomes something else entirely.

    Summary

    A file was attached. Kal opened it to see a small creature almost completely composed of a large, limpid eye staring at him from the display.

    Kal closed the report and rested his chin on his hand. His eyes found themselves staring at the blank screen of the gently pulsing scanner. He imagined Batman on that plane circling Starro's mothership. He imagined him collecting a tiny spore and taking that picture. He remembered that tiny, pink star with its huge, shining eye. Perhaps with the capability of being a tiny beacon--or even some sort of dangerous clone.

    Kal was reluctant to admit it was slightly adorable.

    Or: When the Justice League calls on the Caretakers for help caring for a certain world-conqueror's spore, Kal learns what it means to face his fears, and maybe even finds somewhere he belongs.

    Summary

    There was something else, too. The softest hush-hush rustle of fabric. The barest creak of muscle. And then, an exhale. A heartbeat that seemed, for a moment, to reverberate through the city itself, that broke her unbearable waiting, that filled her chest and brought her to waking…

    Clark opened his eyes, staring up into the darkness.

    There was nothing there. But a moment ago, there had been. And, whatever it was, it had been watching him.

    "You're real," he whispered to the night.

    A series of strange murders. A vengeful protector, cloaked in shadow. A city that breathes and lives and watches. Clark Kent can sense Gotham's hostility from the moment he crosses its border — but its currents pull him closer to its mysteries, and the deeper his investigations go, the more he begins to belong...

    Summary

    Bruce would always remember exactly where he was, precisely what he was doing, when the concept of intelligent extraterrestrial lifeforms went from a likely possibility to a cold certainty.
    Would always remember the way his skin had cooled and his heart raced when the Batcomputer’s monitors were taken over by intruders he did not recognize. There had been moments of sheer horror before Bruce had realised his screens hadn’t been the only ones taken over - that it hadn’t been a successful targeted attack on the ‘Cave.
    It had been, Bruce would later insist, an attack on the entirety of humankind.
