    Summary

    The picture changed again, and Pepper gasped sharply.

    Tony Stark lay flat on his back.

    The billionaire subsequently breathed in and blinked awake in a half startled grunt. Pepper and Happy watched in frozen shock as Tony watched the ceiling a moment before turning his head to the side. Then his head went back again, and he closed his eyes with a groan. The camera trailed over to the source of Tony’s displeasure. There at his side, still unconscious, was Captain Steve Rogers.

    Or rather:

    Several months after Civil War, a new threat presents itself, in which Tony, Steve, Peter, Sam, Wanda, Clint, Natasha, Bruce and Bucky are captured and thrown together on an Island that had been manufactured by Hydra. Trapped, The Avengers have no other choice but to rely on both their wits and one another as they brave the elements, face off against new foes eager to make a name for themselves, and of course, try and make their way home alive.

    (So far, the only thing they can agree on is keeping spider kid from dying, which is a pretty low bar, but it’s a start.)

    Oh, and they have no idea that their every move is being filmed and broadcasted live on national television.

    “Do you like it here?” Steve asked.

    He saw the way Bucky furrowed his brow, face caught in a grimace that didn’t really seem to know what emotion it wanted to convey. “I wouldn’t say that.”

    Steve couldn’t hold back a smile, “Me neither.”


    In which Steve takes the Winter Soldier on a museum date and things escalate from there.

    Summary

    They have an arrangement.

    Eight months of Thursdays. Eight months of Bruce cataloguing everything he tells himself he's not cataloguing — the sounds Clark makes, the impossible heat of him, the way his sleeping body turns toward Bruce's corner of the room. Eight months of very carefully not calling it what it is.

    Then Clark shows up on a Sunday and asks Bruce what he knows.

    Turns out Bruce knows exactly what this is. He's known since Kazakhstan, since a restaurant at 3 AM, since Clark said I'd like to come back from this to a bowl of pelmeni and Bruce filed it under highest priority classification and declined to retrieve it.

    He's retrieving it now.

    (Or: Bruce Wayne's comprehensive manual on how to be in love with Clark Kent while pretending very hard that you're not, until you can't pretend anymore, at which point you should probably just say it out loud. Featuring: a case, a conspiracy, water rights journalism, one teenager's homemade piezometers, and Bruce Wayne learning that sometimes staying is scarier than any exit he's ever built.)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    "You like the cave," Bruce says.

    "Yes."

    "It's a cave."

    "It's your cave," Clark says. "Which makes it better than other caves."

     

    I really love this particular exchange it's so cute.

    Anyway im regards to literally everything else, I ALSO love it, I feel like Bruce's voice is a challenge to capture since he's so avoidant but also painfully aware of...everything? but the clinical way he speaks here is so fitting to the way he processes things, his difficulty with staying clinical when it comes to what he loves (and won't admit he loves (the fiest appearance of the word "love" really just hits)) is so clear from the get-go too the poor guy is so obsessed but so in denial for so long. The way Bruce focuses on patterns is really apparent with the prose and its so beautiful to see the way Bruce begins to notice shifts and can name things that were always there after time. I love how Clark fits into Bruce's tone too, and the way Bruce is so focused on his warmth, literal and otherwise.

    The case, the Garcias, also take a spotlight which i wasnt initially expecting but loved. Martha and Alfred mentions, as always, gave me feels I just love parental figures of heroes so much even if the dynamics weren't explored too much you could feel how they shape the heroes and their actions.

    Summary

    There was something else, too. The softest hush-hush rustle of fabric. The barest creak of muscle. And then, an exhale. A heartbeat that seemed, for a moment, to reverberate through the city itself, that broke her unbearable waiting, that filled her chest and brought her to waking…

    Clark opened his eyes, staring up into the darkness.

    There was nothing there. But a moment ago, there had been. And, whatever it was, it had been watching him.

    "You're real," he whispered to the night.

    A series of strange murders. A vengeful protector, cloaked in shadow. A city that breathes and lives and watches. Clark Kent can sense Gotham's hostility from the moment he crosses its border — but its currents pull him closer to its mysteries, and the deeper his investigations go, the more he begins to belong...

    Summary

    It starts like this. Clark Kent has a hopeless crush on a woman who's out of his league. Bruce Wayne has a newly-acquired kid he feels ill-equipped to raise. Superman is still finding his feet. And Batman has an unshakeable suspicion that Superman surely can't be all that he seems.

    Things can only get more complicated from there.

    “Hey, Bruce,” he said tentatively. “You have a lot of casual sex, right?”

    Bruce raised one delicate eyebrow. “Mr. Kent,” he said slowly, amusement curling around the words, “are you calling me easy?”

    Summary

    Clark Kent meets Matches Malone while working on a story, and the pair hit it off almost immediately.

Bruce just wants to figure out if he can maintain three separate identities, raise a kid, and keep his reporter boyfriend somewhat in the dark. It's a three-way double-blind secret identity scramble.

    Summary

    Mild-mannered junior reporter (and relatively recent superhero) Clark Kent gets his first big job all to himself. When the trail leads him to Gotham and the turf of his ally, and idol, Batman, Clark gets injured in the crossfire, unable to reveal his true identity. He's forced to recuperate at the mansion of Batman's apparent ally, infamous playboy Brucie Wayne. Bruce's kids seem determined to keep Clark in close proximity, thwarting his attempts to either return to his super persona or avoid Wayne's ridiculous flirting. But there's more to the case, and Wayne, than meets the eye.

    Batman doesn't rescue pretty reporters, that's Superman's schtick, but when a firefight forces Clark Kent of the Daily Planet to recuperate at Wayne Manor, Bruce will just have to manage. Juggling fatherhood and an overbearing public persona is bad enough, but fighting the investigative power of a journalist in his own home could bring down not only his secret identity, but his sons'. He's determined not to give in to the draw of big blue eyes, or, more embarrassingly, to his boys' meddling. And worst of all, no one can find Superman.

    Summary

    Jack Callahan doesn't know what he's expecting when he stumbles down the stairs of the rickety old townhouse that doubles as both his home and his practice to answer the knocking at the door at two in the morning, but it certainly isn't Martha Kent clutching a small bundle of cloth to her chest.

    His night gets more confusing from there.

    Summary

    "The constant increase of entropy in the universe shows that time will always keep moving forward. However, by making different choices, we can navigate our way back to a better place. We can’t turn around and walk back across the line, but we can make different choices as we move forward and eventually circle back to the other side.”

    A moment of singularity, and Spencer Reid's life spirals into chaos.

    ***I work in the field of psychology and study the human mind for a living. Somebody said that finding a realistic way to write these two characters together was impossible. So, utilizing the DSM-5-TR and my unfettered access to all the most recent research in the field, I say, "Watch me."

    Summary

    Every Saturday, Dr. Spencer Reid returns to a quiet city park—not as a profiler, but as “Dr. Magic Man,” armed with science kits, marshmallows, and the kind of wonder he wished someone had shared with him as a kid. What begins as a small act of curiosity grows into something bigger: a ritual of connection, healing, and messy, beautiful magic. Among the chaos of paper birds, vinegar volcanoes, and wide-eyed kids who don’t think he’s weird, Spencer finds a rare kind of peace. A place where he doesn’t have to mask. A place where curiosity is sacred.

    Or: the one where Spencer teaches science to kids and accidentally heals his inner child.

    Summary

    But Henry is the one who had called, not Alex. Henry is the one who broke their stalemate and reached out, despite being the one who’d ran away in the first place. It’s foolish and asinine and criminally cruel, and Henry doesn’t know who he’s talking about anymore.

    Perhaps he and Alex are destined to do this forever; a maddening, all-consuming push and pull of two orbiting bodies that can only collide with devastating consequences. Henry has only ever found some semblance of religion in the caress of Alex’s touch, used to chase absolution down the dip of his spine and beg for salvation against the hollow of his throat. He’d never found what he’d been looking for.

    Or, ACD is the world's favorite rockstar; Henry is Alex's favorite "what if"
