Summary
When Lex Luthor finally gains control of Superman, he doesn’t make him destroy the world. That would be a waste.
Instead, Lex removes the noise. The hesitation. The endless moral calculations that come with trying to save everyone. The noise.For a brief, impossible moment, Clark Kent experiences something he hasn’t felt since he became Superman:
Peace.
The Justice League breaks Lex’s control, the world celebrates, and the hero returns.
But Clark remembers.
And one night, exhausted by the weight of a world that never stops needing him, Superman flies to Lex Luthor’s penthouse. Not to threaten him.
To ask a question he’s afraid to say out loud... and Lex is waiting.
(Fic where Clark has to try and avoid the temptation of submitting to brainwashing from Luthor to lift the weight of the world on his shoulders (and fails). Lots of philosophical discussions. Very slow burn enemies to something, Superman/Luthor. Batman will show up at some point because I love him. Based on this prompt; https://shineyma.tumblr.com/post/799032163422093312)
