    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...

    Almost everyone on the League, including Batman himself, will tell you that Batman works alone. Clark, who can hear the small Greek chorus of children in Batman’s comm, knows better than that.

    Summary

    It starts like this. Clark Kent has a hopeless crush on a woman who's out of his league. Bruce Wayne has a newly-acquired kid he feels ill-equipped to raise. Superman is still finding his feet. And Batman has an unshakeable suspicion that Superman surely can't be all that he seems.

    Things can only get more complicated from there.

    “Hey, Bruce,” he said tentatively. “You have a lot of casual sex, right?”

    Bruce raised one delicate eyebrow. “Mr. Kent,” he said slowly, amusement curling around the words, “are you calling me easy?”

    (or: Not quite fresh out of a divorce, Clark attempts to have a hot girl summer. It goes well until it doesn't.)

    Summary

    Clark Kent meets Matches Malone while working on a story, and the pair hit it off almost immediately. Meanwhile, Superman is getting established as a hero, and slowly becoming friends with Batman. Bruce just wants to figure out if he can maintain three separate identities, raise a kid, and keep his reporter boyfriend somewhat in the dark. It's a three-way double-blind secret identity scramble.

    Summary

    Mild-mannered junior reporter (and relatively recent superhero) Clark Kent gets his first big job all to himself. When the trail leads him to Gotham and the turf of his ally, and idol, Batman, Clark gets injured in the crossfire, unable to reveal his true identity. He's forced to recuperate at the mansion of Batman's apparent ally, infamous playboy Brucie Wayne. Bruce's kids seem determined to keep Clark in close proximity, thwarting his attempts to either return to his super persona or avoid Wayne's ridiculous flirting. But there's more to the case, and Wayne, than meets the eye.

    Batman doesn't rescue pretty reporters, that's Superman's schtick, but when a firefight forces Clark Kent of the Daily Planet to recuperate at Wayne Manor, Bruce will just have to manage. Juggling fatherhood and an overbearing public persona is bad enough, but fighting the investigative power of a journalist in his own home could bring down not only his secret identity, but his sons'. He's determined not to give in to the draw of big blue eyes, or, more embarrassingly, to his boys' meddling. And worst of all, no one can find Superman.

    Summary

    Jack Callahan doesn't know what he's expecting when he stumbles down the stairs of the rickety old townhouse that doubles as both his home and his practice to answer the knocking at the door at two in the morning, but it certainly isn't Martha Kent clutching a small bundle of cloth to her chest.

    His night gets more confusing from there.

    “Hi! I’m Vigilante,” he said brightly. “My fun fact is that I know 203 different ways to kill a human being.”

    Jason stared. “…You need to be institutionalised.”

    Vigilante nodded enthusiastically. “They tried that once! I made friends with the janitor. We still text.” He dropped his voice in a loud whisper. “I killed his abusive wife for him.”

    Summary

    "The constant increase of entropy in the universe shows that time will always keep moving forward. However, by making different choices, we can navigate our way back to a better place. We can’t turn around and walk back across the line, but we can make different choices as we move forward and eventually circle back to the other side.”

    A moment of singularity, and Spencer Reid's life spirals into chaos.

    ***I work in the field of psychology and study the human mind for a living. Somebody said that finding a realistic way to write these two characters together was impossible. So, utilizing the DSM-5-TR and my unfettered access to all the most recent research in the field, I say, "Watch me."

    I loved it so much, I didnt expect to but I did. The relationships between all 3 characters are so complex and so unlikely but so logical. Ngl, it was hard to see the situation unfold the way it did, and the isolation hurt to know and witness, it was so bittersweet, but it was worth it

    Summary

    Every Saturday, Dr. Spencer Reid returns to a quiet city park—not as a profiler, but as “Dr. Magic Man,” armed with science kits, marshmallows, and the kind of wonder he wished someone had shared with him as a kid. What begins as a small act of curiosity grows into something bigger: a ritual of connection, healing, and messy, beautiful magic. Among the chaos of paper birds, vinegar volcanoes, and wide-eyed kids who don’t think he’s weird, Spencer finds a rare kind of peace. A place where he doesn’t have to mask. A place where curiosity is sacred.

    Or: the one where Spencer teaches science to kids and accidentally heals his inner child.

    In 1995, the band Six of Crows played their last-ever performance at The Royal Albert Hall before the singer, Nina Zenik walked off stage and the band never played again.
    Now, twenty years on, the band has agreed to conduct a series of interviews about what it was like being the Six of Crows.

    //

    Kinda inspired by Daisy Jones and the Six?

    “I think…,” Jason swallowed the lump in his throat. He hated the way his voice warbled, “I think I’m getting sick,” he said.

    “Like…as in you need to go to the doctor? Or the In and Out is making you queasy? Because it was kind of greasy-”

    “No,” he said, though the In and Out was turning in his stomach a little now, “Sick like mom.”

    Jason is struggling at boarding school when his sister pays him a visit.

    The older man raised an eyebrow. "My brother seems to think you are a god.”

    "And you don't?” Percy asked, tilting his head.

    Sure, Hazel had once told him that she had only helped him the first time they met because she had feared he was a vengeful god who would have killed her on the spot otherwise. He had thought, of course, that she was only joking.

    The man took a minute to answer. "You have the eyes of a god. I feel the urge to submit to you as I would to a god. You have the requisite reverent aura of a divine executioner. But- your smile is still too human.”

    -

     

    Percy, Nico and Will are thrown into the time of the Trojan War, and each of them experiences a side of Ancient Greece that changes their view of those they call father.

     

    Meanwhile, the one who sent them there hopes to turn the demigods against the gods. How could they eventually not hate them when they witness the immortals at the height of their power?

    Summary

    Perseus Jackson wakes up in the middle of a street he's never seen before, in a city he doesn't recognize, with no memories to clue him in as to how he got there.

    Strangely, he's not the only amnesiac teenager on this road.

    Meanwhile, on opposite sides of the country, Annabeth Chase and Reyna Ramirez-Arellano secretly set out to search for their missing friends.

    ----

    Instead of swapping Percy's and Jason's places at the beginning of the Heroes of Olympus, they are both placed in the middle of the country, together, with no memories between them. Told in alternating chapters is the story of the amnesiacs' attempts to find their homes, and that of their friends, guided by a series of dreams and visions that are just a little too convenient.

    Summary

    "So, what's my fatal flaw?" He asked jokingly after a long, comfortable silence. He couldn't quite see Thalia in the dim light, but knowing her as well as he did, he didn't actually had to.
    "Well, that's easy," said Thalia and he could hear the smirk in her voice. "You're a dirty thief, Luke Castellan." Luke made a face.
    "What's mine?" Asked Thalia.
    "Well, that's easy," he teased with a wide grin that made Thalia groan. "You're an insensitive jerk, Thalia Grace." Thalia laughed, Annabeth stirred in her sleep and they stayed quiet for the rest of the night.
    Thalia Grace's fatal flaw was not being insensitive, it was not being reckless, it was not being arrogant and Luke knew it better than anyone else. He didn't say anything, though, because this wasn't the kind of things anyone wanted to hear, not even from your own best friend.
    ...
    They were called fatal for a reason.
