    Summary

    "I am curious about you," Bats says, and Clark laughs. Clearly.

    Metropolis has a new champion. Some sort of literal god. Bruce is suspicious, frightened, and beyond paranoid about when the other Supershoe will drop.

    Meanwhile, Clark has a bit of a professional boner about Batman.

    Summary

    It was a Thursday afternoon at the end of March, and Bruce Wayne met Clark Kent in the way enterprising billionaires tended to meet investigative reporters: Through an interview.
    Kent had posture like cooked spaghetti and wore his plaid like the strangest camouflage in history.

    Bruce was less than impressed.

    Summary

    Rather than decisively ending the conclave, Vincent's speech simply splits the vote further. With tensions rising between factions with every ballot cast, Vincent and Thomas realise they must begin to navigate being the last two candidates standing for a papacy that each wants the other to have.

    "We have been sequestered for fifteen days, Thomas," Aldo says, still facing away. "Fifteen days, and the vote is still even between you and Cardinal Benítez. The world will be envisioning a scandal by now."

    Summary

    Laurent wakes screaming. He’s dying. He must be. It’s the only explanation he has for the utter agony, confusion and terror that he feels. His brain is splitting itself open, bits of it strewn across space and time. He’s twenty one, in Arles, finally crowned. He’s fourteen, at Chastillon, on his knees for his uncle. He’s twenty, in Ios, watching a blade sink into Damen’s side. He’s sixteen, all alone, dreaming of revenge.

    Last night Laurent had thrust his arm at Damen, “attend me,” he had commanded, as if Damen weren’t a king in his own right. Last night, Uncle had sat on his bed, played chess with him. “I will always have time for you,” he had reassured Laurent, “even though Auguste has outgrown you.”

    Laurent leans to the side and vomits, violently. His fingers shake as he pushes his hair back, slowly, the room spins into focus. His hair is shorter than he remembers, Damen likes it long. His hair is exactly the same, cut by his nursemaid once a month.

    He is thirteen, at Marlas, and he knows everything.

    Summary

    The devil's eye, roughly the size of a grapefruit, rolls on the ground until stopping by his shoe, a red iris staring at him.

    It gets stomped on by someone else, making a squishing sound that causes the hunter to stick out his tongue. Yucky. Over the bloody mess, sneakers. Dirty and worn out, the red fabric ripped on the side. Hirofumi follows its owner's legs, finding a lanky teenage boy with an eye patch, holding an orange-furred devil whose rumbling and saws gradually slow down to a stop.

    Hirofumi sucks his tongue back into his mouth. “Hello,” he greets with an easy smile.

    Alternatively: A peculiar friendship – and perhaps something deeper – blooms out of an unforeseen meeting.
