Summary
Every summer, they meet for the Friends Across the Barricades program. The children are not the only ones who learn a lesson in trust.
"She would have thought that nothing earthly could capture her attention after a three hours ride in a poorly ventilated van with a pack of male teenagers, but the Lord might have sent her a sign.
“To be honest, I expected you to be a man. Boys school and all.”
“Must have been a delightful surprise, then.”
That earned her another raise of eyebrows, but when the nun looked away, she was smiling to herself.
“You’re the one who’s called Michael,” she felt obliged to add, rather stupidly.
Sister Michael seemed to consider the remark for a moment.
“I am indeed. I suppose the fact I’m such a ray of sunshine is meant to compensate for all the other suckers’ faults.”- Language:

Summary
Kryptonians ran hotter than humans by about 5.4 degrees, give or take a few decimal places. Clark felt like a radiator even on the bitterest of rainy nights on Gotham rooftops, a foot's distance between them; Bruce wondered if it would feel different somehow, if he pressed his hand against his chest, where his shield would lay, with intention—touch for the sake of touching. If it would feel different without the barrier of triple-weave kevlar and impenetrable alien fabric between them, stripped of the context of battle and the excuse of necessity.
Bruce was, however, in possession of all his faculties and thus was sound of mind enough to create a 20-item list (organized by relevance) of all the reasons why following through on his desires would be unwise. Chiefly among said reasons was, of course, that there were approximately thirty minutes before Clark would be married to the love of his life, Lois Lane, and that Bruce would never jeopardize their happiness for something as petty as feelings that he’d failed to smother in the cradle—no matter his alleged ‘self-destructive tendencies’.
