Summary
Clark rejects Bruce Wayne because he’s in love with Batman. Batman rejects Superman because he’s in love with Clark Kent.
So when Superman happens to run into Bruce Wayne, they both have feelings that they need to get over. It’s a reasonable enough solution to their problems, right?
What could go wrong?

too hot (hallelujah) by susiecarter for jaejandra

Summary
It isn't as if Clark doesn't know Bruce is—attractive. Objectively. It isn't even that he doesn't know he's spent maybe a little too much time being really, really aware of that fact.
And sure, it's gotten to him, now and then. He's gotten twisted up about it, sometimes. Feeling too much, wanting too much, a pressure in his chest and a lump in his throat. But he's always gotten a grip on it again. It isn't that bad.
It—hasn't been that bad.
(Or: five times Clark was totally overwhelmed by Bruce's attractiveness, plus the time he finally did something about it.)

Comfortably Numb by chipofftheoldblock

Summary
Clark tried really hard to throw the flowers out all morning, he really did, but then he could hear his mother's voice in his head telling him not to be ungrateful for a gift and that they were probably really expensive and Mr Wayne had obviously gone to some effort for him, and so they stayed on the corner of his desk all day as a mark of shame for Lois to giggle at.
Clark just wants to write a story about Bruce Wayne. Bruce Wayne has other ideas.

Summary
The staff meeting after Cat had broken her foot had involved a lot of reassigning, since she couldn’t exactly do the usual society beat with her foot in a boot. So much that Clark hadn’t really thought twice when Perry had said “and Kent, you’ll take the new Wayne foundation piece,” because sure, he liked working the philanthropy stories occasionally. It wasn’t until they’d gotten back to their desks that Lois had burst into a fit of snickering and said “oh, I would pay money to see how you’re going to handle Bruce Wayne for two weeks,” and Clark had realized how majorly screwed he was.
-
On a two-week assignment, Clark does his best to figure out Bruce Wayne. Bruce does his best to make sure he can't. Unfortunately, they're just too good at working together, even when they don't know it.For Superbat Week 2024, day 1: identity shenanigans.

a song came after by susiecarter

Summary
It requires every ounce of will he can bring to bear to force himself to meet Clark's eyes. Clark looks shocked; the expression is undiluted by anger or dismay, though perhaps he simply hasn't had time to grasp what just happened. His eyes are wide, round, impossibly blue. Color is rising into his cheeks. His mouth is half-open, slack, with the slightest damp shine where—
"That was," Bruce makes himself say, and then stops. Christ, what word can he use? What adjective is there that acknowledges his trespass fully? "Inappropriate." Inadequate, but it's the best he can do, and Clark needs to hear something, needs to know Bruce recognizes his own mistake for what it is. "I apologize. I—"

a tree that has not blossomed (yet) by susiecarter for purpose_miner

Summary
An accident involving a Kryptonian device meddled with by Lex Luthor sends Bruce forward, into a future that must not—cannot—be his own.
Because sure, Clark's joined the Justice League. Clark's willing to work with Bruce to save the world. Clark's even forgiven him for what he once tried to do. But that doesn't mean they're going to—that doesn't make it plausible that they'd ever be—that they would get married.

tell all the truth (but tell it slant) by susiecarter

Summary
It takes a while for Batman and Superman to work things out, once Clark comes back from the dead. Pretending to date each other in order to explain why Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent are in the same place so often? Doesn't help as much as you might think.
Written as a fill for the dceu_kinkmeme prompt, summarized: Bruce/Clark, fake dating. (Full prompt in author's notes.)

Summary
Clark figured out Batman's identity entirely by accident. It was fine—they'd been friends for this long—it was bound to happen sooner or later.
He probably should have given more thought as to how he found out, though.

Summary
It started like any other day. Clark woke up, went to work, and attended the 75th Annual Wayne Foundation Gala. It ended with Batman kissing him on the rooftop of the GCPD.
Then the day happened again. And again. And again.
For most people, finding themselves stuck in a time loop would be the worst of their troubles, but for Clark Kent, it's only the start of his.
