Summary
It’s hard to stay cynical in the face of Clark Kent and his relentless optimism. Looking at him there, still in his button up shirt from his business trip, sleeves rolled up, still focused even though it’s pushing midnight, she feels a warm, steady wave of fondness in her chest.
She wishes they could do this every night. Not the pulling a furious all-nighter right after someone tried to murder her – that part she could take or leave. But it would be nice to spend every evening with Clark. She’d always told herself she liked her space, but being with Clark was like having space and having company rolled into one.
Her highly caffeinated, sleep-deprived brain catches up with the implications of that thought process, and she thinks, shit.
After years of pining after an alien demi-god who is, much as she hates to admit it, miles out of her league, Lois realises she's caught feelings for her co-worker. Unsure whether or not to tell him, she seeks advice from the most sensitive guy she knows - Superman. Things don't go as she expected...

Summary
“There's nothing to report. In any case, I'm not the one you should be consulting with,” He continues, snapping off a plate of armor with a click that echoed hollowly against the tile walls, “seeing as I was off the field for the majority of the incident.” He tenses around that last word, incident, grinding it between his teeth before spitting it into the air.
“Really?” Clark lowers himself onto the bench, keeping a conscious distance between them. Bruce doesn’t turn to face him. Instead he shifts his weight away, practically hovering over the edge of his seat as he works at his other boot. “The prints say otherwise.”
Bruce freezes, a half-loose knot pulled taut between his hands.
“The what?”

Summary
“I’m here to bring you this.”
Clark set down a protein green smoothie in front of him.
“It’s from that place you told me about. I’m eighty-five percent sure I got the flavor right,” he added quickly, before Bruce could object. Bruce stared at the cup like it was a foreign object.
Or, Clark has picked up a habit of doting on Bruce, and truthfully, he has no intention of ever stopping.

Summary
Superman stops floating, feet landing softly on the ground, how polite of him. "Batman collapsed on the thirty seventh floor of the Oceans Hotel. Superman caught him falling out the window before he hit the ground."
God, Bruce really has to find a better way to escape buildings.
Superman is evidently not done bruising Bruce's pride, as he continues, face like stone but sounding almost amused, just a hint of a southern drawl following his words, "Bruce Wayne was brought into Gotham General Hospital about five minutes later by a rescue group who found him floating around in a basket in his underwear."
"You're joking," Bruce states, rather horrified.
(Battinson meets Superman.)

Summary
"Before," Clark asks, a glass of whiskey that has absolutely no effect on him whatsoever held loosely in his hands, "Why did you hate me?"
"Well," Bruce hums, downing the rest of his own glass in one sweep for an ounce of courage, "You killed my children."
(The day Zod attacks Metropolis, Bruce loses his kids.)

Summary
"Father. Do not panic. I have everything under control."
Bruce immediately begins to panic, because Damian should know his father would never panic, so whatever has happened, whatever Damian claims he has under control, is undoubtedly going to make Bruce panic. Like right now. He's panicking.
But just as Bruce pushes himself to sit up on the bed, with great difficulty due to the bandages across his stomach, eyes darting over Damian to find any injuries —
Thomas Wayne, age thirty, walks through his bedroom door.
(Or; a ten step guide of things not to do when you're sent to the past, by Bruce Wayne.)

Summary
“Just one. And don’t tell Alfred I let you have one before dinner.”
Dick promised solemnly.
Bruce squeezed his legs, joining the line. After being in court for five hours listening to social workers and lawyers debate the legality of placing an-- at the time-- eight year old boy in a juvenile center, they deserved a treat.

Summary
"Why did my parents leave me to you?" Bruce asks, with enough childlike genuinity and confusion that Alfred can't even be offended by the slightly backhanded accusation.
In a way, he can agree with the boy's disbelief. Why had Thomas and Martha Wayne left their darling son to a man who they barely knew in any emotional capacity? Serving them lunch and organising their linen closet is hardly a reason to write him into their wills.
Staring down at Bruce, the butler desperately tries to work out how to explain to an eight year old that his parents might have been insane.
But maybe, the insane one is him.

Alfred’s love is pressed shirts and warm food. And his love is a gleaming knife, too.
He would bleed for his boys. He would make others bleed for them.
And so he does.
(Or: the Joker must die, and Alfred Pennyworth is not a man who waits on others to do his work.)

“So, why haven't you settled down with some lucky lady yet?” the interviewer asks.
Maybe it's the blinding set-lights, or the fact that he hasn't slept in thirty-five hours. But for some reason Kirk blurts, “Honestly, they all end up getting jealous of Spock.”- Language:

Now Ahsoka knew he was scolding her.
“Sorry,” she said again and bit her tongue before she could find herself making any more excuses. It ached, inside. The kind of porous ache where it was easier to just bow down and agree.
“No harm was done, Sir. I only meant that I understand it’s difficult. For you, for me and for the General too. But you and I can afford to make more mistakes than he can, in his position. If he seems unkind–”
”No,” Ahsoka said. “He’s never unkind. Rex, you know Anakin. He’s just–” Sometimes in my corner and sometimes completely unyielding, she wanted to say. Hardly ever fun anymore. “Frustrating,” was what she said instead. “And I know you can’t say anything to him.”
“That’s not true.”or; Ahsoka and the delicate art of learning how to be a person amidst a brutal military conflict with the aid of galaxy's most maladjusted people

“Fuck you,” Leia says. “Who said anything about getting married? Did Luke say anything about getting married?”
“Luke is not involved,” Luke says, not looking up.
“Hey, Luke is not involved,” Han says, pointing at her. She’s going to bite his finger off, then they’ll see how much pointing he can do with it. “This is about you and me, princess.”
“There’s not going to be a you and me,” Leia says. “I’m going to have this baby with C-3PO.”
C-3PO says, “Madam,” tremulous.
