    Summary

    Bruce had gotten rid of every other bodyguard Alfred insisted he have. As if he hadn’t already learned to survive on his own. Arguing with Alfred was pointless, of course - he’d remind Bruce politely, persistently, that even a man like him shouldn’t walk unguarded. Bruce had nodded, tolerated it, and then quietly dismantled every option presented.

    Bruce Wayne doesn’t do vulnerability. He doesn’t do distraction. He certainly doesn’t do temptation - then Clark Kent shows up. Polite, earnest, unnervingly observant. Bruce gives him a week, tops. But there’s a quiet strength behind those Midwestern manners, a presence that keeps pulling at him, despite every instinct screaming to push it away.

    In a world where emotions are weaknesses and temptation a danger, Bruce has to decide whether he can control what he feels or if he’s already lost.

    Summary

    After months of lounging around Gale’s tower like the realm’s most flirtatious houseguest, Astarion is starting to become frustrated that the wizard can’t seem to take a hint.

    A journey of trauma-induced self-doubt, miscommunication, and being horrifically, unequivocally in love.

    Summary

    These days, most everybody in camp had learned to wave away Astarion’s advances with a laugh. They found the flirtation titillating, Gale figured, or a bit threatening, or some combination of the two. He wondered if anybody else found it sad.
    --
    Good old-fashioned rumination on choice and compulsion. Gale and Astarion shake off their metaphorical shackles.

    Summary

    Witchers used to have omegas, back in the old days, before the raids and the pitchforks. Vesemer remembers it fondly. The laughter, the warmth. Kaer Morhen meant more than just protection for the winter. He remembers the excitement, adding up the days in his head, counting down until he could come home. The long days of the path turned short as winter crept over the continent. Desperate for the warm arms of an omega, one that doesn’t stink of fear.

    It didn’t matter now. They were all gone. The Witchers. The omegas. It was only him now. Vesemir and his boys. Eskel, Lambert, and Geralt.

    It was hard, though. When the nights got long and the cold darkness of the keep seemed even colder. The boys became restless, he became angry, and it always felt like something was missing. Something softer. Something to round out their sharp edges.

    Summary

    "Your identity was supposed to be a secret. Not only to protect yourself (and probably least importantly yourself) but others. Your family, your friends. Everyone who stood a chance at being ripped apart by your decision to go out there everyday and put yourself in the crossfire.

    Not that Bruce had anyone to protect, besides Alfred. But it was still a fucking given."

    Or: Bruce has been Batman for two years and if he knew anything, it was that when you don a mask, you don it for a reason. An important reason that just doesn't seem to be as important to the rest of the League as it is to him. This is going to be a story about Bruce being coaxed into allowing others behind his carefully built walls. (Specifically one person.)
