    Summary

    Modern AU. James Fitzjames runs North of Reason, a paranormal YouTube channel that’s just landed him in Cobh with off-season rain, a ferry schedule, and filming rights to Spike Island’s infamous prison.
    He’s expecting cold spots and good B-roll. He’s not expecting the trust to send along Dr Francis Crozier: maritime historian, professional skeptic, and the man whose emails once called his work “irrevocably irresponsible.”

    A double-booked guesthouse room, one enormous bed, and a night investigation in Spike’s tunnels later, the ghosts are the least of James’s problems. The audience can smell the tension from the first upload—and buried in the comments, one quietly devastating observation forces James to admit what his camera’s been framing all along.

    Summary

    Bruce and Clark work together, make use of x-ray vision, maintain an unexpectedly necessary pretense, get the better of magic, get the better of "science", buddy-breathe—and then, finally, kiss.

    Or: six times Bruce and Clark kissed for ~reasons, plus the first time they did it just because they wanted to. (Written for Superbat Week 2020.)

    Summary

    Today is the day. In the next ten minutes, Bruce will nonchalantly go in for a kiss from Clark and either come out the other side with a partner or a rejection.

    (Bruce has a plan. Clark doesn’t stick to it.)

    Summary

    The words on his skin were his everything. After everything he'd seen, done and been through, they were a reminder that Bruce Wayne still existed. That somewhere there was a person who would love him despite the coldness in his chest and the scars that roped their way across his skin. A reminder that he wasn't alone - that he wasn't destined to live forever in the shadows, silent and isolated. That somewhere out there was the other half of his soul.

    He just wasn't expecting the other half of his soul to be an alien.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian barely makes a sound when Jin Zixun’s sword goes through his chest. A tiny noise is punched out of him — half gasp, half sigh. Jin Zixun, wearing that smirk that Lan Wangji has always hated, moves to pull the sword out.

    This won’t do; Lan Wangji knows enough about battlefield medicine to understand the principle of keeping the weapon in the wound until a medic arrives. So he does the only thing that occurs to him in the moment, letting the momentum of flight be the force behind the swing; he cuts off Jin Zixun’s hand.

    -

    Lan Wangji goes with Wei Wuxian to his nephew's one-month celebration instead of Wen Ning. They still don't make it to the party.
