Summary
Facing up to Traci at Oblivion's Pride Night and apologizing for how idiotically Nat had dumped her had been...tough. But Traci had accepted her apology, and said they should hang out.
And then Superhero Bullshit(TM) had happened, and Magic Bullshit(TM) had happened, for weeks and weeks. They've had to postpone said hangout four times. But this is the day. There's no magic green goop raining from the sky. There's no alien despots or billionaires punching their way through Metropolis. Not a single person has suddenly turned into a furry. Nat is determined to be normal about hanging out with her funny, smart, brilliant ex. Whom she is definitely over.
She'll be fine. They'll be fine. Hopefully.

Summary
Kal-El is not a superstitious man, but he has made it a habit to pause his work at high noon, and offer a prayer of gratitude to Rao. He sees his parents every day. He walks among the statues of his ancestors, where he knows he belongs. He finds purpose and fulfillment studying the intricacies of Krypton's flora and fauna, absorbing every detail of the miraculous life of his home. And beside him in all these things is his husband, Brus Wayn-El, who loves him, and allows Kal to love him in turn.
By any rational measure his life is ideal. Every now and again, though, there is a baseless melancholy that comes over him. An ache in his chest. A longing for the sky. A restless feeling he should, somehow, be doing more.

Summary

Summary
The problem with Kara's attempt to recreate Kryptonian recipes - well, there are a few problems. For one, cooking had been a hobby on Krypton and a luxury on Argo. For two, Earth potatoes taste wrong.
Good thing there is a very experienced chef in the family.

Summary
What it says in the title: the concept of "would you still love me if I were a worm" taken literally.
Superman is transformed into a worm during a mission. Bruce adapts, as always, and dutifully takes care of him. Safety? Check. The best terrarium in Gotham? Also check. Entertainment and comfort? Triple check. Oh, and he works on getting him back to normal.
Clark is definitely grateful to have such a clever, dedicated boyfriend.Bookmarked by mediant

Summary
After four days of stilted greetings and skipped meals, it's obvious to Martha Kent that something is bothering her son. One late-night conversation proves she's not entirely prepared to find out what.
Or, when you have a hundred questions without answers, it's easy to speculate. Sometimes it comes from all the wrong places.
