    Summary

    The flood brought Gotham closer; Strengthened bonds, it broke borders. It purged them, in a sense. Gave them a second chance at purer justice. Drowned rats don't bite.

    But second chances aren't cheap.

    There's still some blood in the water.

    Or,

    After losing his parents, little Tim Drake is sent packing to an orphanage.

    Bruce Wayne comes for one orphan and adopts three.

    Summary

    "I need... I want," Bruce pants, struggling to breathe and talk at the same time, "Fuck me, Clark..."

    And if Clark ever had any doubt, it vanishes now. The man beneath him, moaning and twisting under his touch, is Batman.

    There's no room left for questions. It's the same voice he heard months ago, pleading in the dark from a faceless man. Only this time, he's the one without a face. And this time, no one is eavesdropping on those sounds, because the one who used to listen is now the one making Bruce fall apart like this.

     

    (Or, Clark thinks Batman has a very nice voice. It's been stuck in his head ever since he accidentally heard him during… sex. There's something about Bruce Wayne's voice that feels strangely familiar.)

    Summary

    Months after the Avengers' dispute in Germany, the team returns to the US and moves back into the tower. As always, everyone pretends that nothing happened. Tony is just fine with this. He's used to pretending, and he'll be damned if he lets any of them see him flinch.

    Tony's the bad guy, after all. He's used to it. He's fine with it. He's good at it.

    Only now, there's something far worse loitering around the tower - The Winter Soldier. No one notices the guy at first, but when they do, Tony figures that he should have the soldier's back.

    Birds of a feather should flock together, and the bad guys should start a book club.

    Summary

    Tony gave Steve everything in the divorce. Their beautiful Brooklyn brownstone and everything in it, Tony's beloved Audi, their private garden upstate. Tony even offered him the lakehouse, but Steve had looked up at him with red eyes and begged softly for him to stop.

    Tony gave Steve everything, every last piece of himself. He didn't take much with him when he flew out to his mansion in Malibu, but he took every last piece of Steve, too.
