Summary
"Were you aware that LuthorCorp was using Wayne technology in their illegal weapons programs?"
For the first time, Bruce looked genuinely surprised. "Those contracts were terminated."
"When? Before or after Luthor's crimes became public?"
Bruce was quiet for a long moment, his fingers drumming against the arm of his chair. "I'd have to check with our legal department about the specific timeline."
"So you don't know?"
Bruce was silent.
Gotham's drowning, Batman's bleeding, and a nosy reporter won't stop asking why.
Three years after the flood, a rot festers, born from the stragglers of Riddler's movement.
The Sons of Gotham, neo-Nazis with mysteriously deep pockets, rise from the grime. Bruce bleeds for a city that keeps sinking.
Enter Clark Kent: infuriatingly earnest, maddeningly handsome, and asking questions Bruce can't answer.
When threats grow too big for one city, Batman reluctantly teams up with Superman. Saving Gotham wasn't hard.
Letting someone help? Letting someone in? Easier said than done.

Summary
Swanwick gave Bruce a level, unamused look. "Mr. Wayne," he said. "Please tell me you know why you're here."
Bruce shrugged. "Won the lottery, and first-place prize is the government marries me off to an alien."
(Or: in a universe where Krypton took an extra thirty-odd years to implode, Kal-El was sent to Earth as an adult, in advance of the ship containing the only other surviving Kryptonians; and a quirk of Kryptonian law means negotiating refuge, potential resettlement, and an alliance with the Kryptonians in general is dependent on marriage between a Kryptonian and a human. Bruce did what it took to make sure that that human would be him, instead of some poor unprepared civilian—but his efforts to learn more about the aliens, what they want and why they're here, and how, if necessary, to kill them ... don't go the way he's expecting them to.)

Summary
"So, maybe you've found your home here in Gotham. At least it's not that far, compared to Kansas." Bruce's voice is smooth and steady, his tone low.
It's hard to keep a straight face at that.
Clark's lips curve into a fond smile as he chuckles and shakes his head, leaning back against his seat, a hand rubbing across the nape of his neck.
"Yeah. Maybe I have. The coffee's great here. And the company is really nice." Clark offers a smile as he meets Bruce's eyes, holding his gaze for a beat too long before returning it to his pie.
He doesn't miss the way Bruce's heart rate stutters at his comment.
--
Or, Clark Kent can't do one night stands, and Bruce is just his usual human disaster.(This story officially ends at Chapter 5.
Everything after that will be extra chapters, which I'll post whenever I feel like it!)- Language:

Summary
Jack puts the phone to his ear.
“Hey,” Nick says. His voice sounds wet. That’s enough to make Jack stop his pacing entirely.
“Nick?”
“Yeah,” Nick says, and coughs. “I caught some strays, couple days ago. Think you can take care of them for me?”
***
Jack pulls Nick out of a bad situation. Things spiral from there.

Summary
So, yeah, after talking business, after drowning their tongues with the flavor of whiskey, it’s no wonder, no wonder at all, that they need to chase the taste away with a bit of rum and a bit of fun, with each other’s lips locked together to wash off the bitter aroma of their day. It’s no wonder at all, right, because where else are men like them ever going to find what they need, eh?

AKA: The one in which Alfie Solomons just wants to get Tommy Shelby out of his head, stumbles upon a whole can of worms, can't walk away, and falls in love. Also the one in which Tommy Shelby rationalizes that this thing with Alfie is all just work anyway, stumbles upon a man who doesn't let him get away with his shit, can't bring himself to leave without coming back, and falls in love.

Summary
After the past two years or fear and unpredictability, Henry Sinclair was more than happy to spend his summer playing the part of an average teenager working in the new mall. But, with his 18th birthday looming ever closer, a best friend who inspired feelings far greater than friendship, and the special instincts he kept hidden from the world pulling him in a direction he couldn't quite comprehend, it seemed he wouldn't get that wish.
Unfortunately for him, Henry’s life was far from ordinary, he would never, ever be average, and the summer of 1985 was shaping up to prove that.
