    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

    Clark sees Bruce in public for the first time since Batman and Superman started working together, at another charity event in Metropolis. He's fascinated by how different Bruce's public persona is from the Bruce he's come to know. Bruce catches him watching and promptly ambushes Clark in the bathroom.

    Summary

    Superman, the beacon of light and hope, illuminating the darkness for mankind, and finding no such light for himself. Part of Bruce wanted to appreciate the irony, but all he saw was the suffocating fear in those bright blue eyes. Bruce knew fear better than anyone else. He didn't feel like laughing about it.

    Summary

    Written as a fill for the DCEU kinkmeme prompt:

    Clark temporarily loses his powers, and while it's initially jarring, he gradually adjusts and tries to go about on a somewhat normal routine after telling his inner circle (which can also include the League since they're building themselves up). Problem is that he is somehow an even bigger danger magnet than Lois in this state.
     
    See author's notes for the full prompt!

    This is set post-Dawn of Justice. There's some references to the comics, but nothing major.
