    Summary

Even though he's reclutant at first, Verso quickly discovers that maybe it won't be that difficult to keep that promise. Gustave's company is not so bad and maybe he does have it in him to try to enjoy life again.

    Summary

    Gustave dies at Renoir's hand on the Stone Wave Cliffs. Then Gustave opens his eyes to the sound of a cane striking stone at the edge of the Continent. He dies again, he opens his eyes again. Again, again, and again, until he gets it right.

    A slow-burn Verstave time loop from Gustave's perspective. The content warning is for time loop-typical death and violence.

    Updates on Tuesdays.

    Summary

    The Pride & Prejudice AU you didn't know you needed.

    When he returned to Verso, he did not hesitate.
    "She could not go through with it," he said in a rush, keeping his voice low enough that only Verso could hear. "The engagement. I offered to take her place. I know this is irregular, I know you have every right to refuse, but I am asking you—"
    Verso's hand tightened on his waist, and Gustave's words died in his throat.
    "Why?" Verso asked, his pale eyes fixed on Gustave's face with unsettling intensity.
    "Why you?" he clarified, his voice quiet but intent. "Why sacrifice yourself for her?"
    The question caught Gustave off guard. He opened his mouth, closed it again, searching for the right words.
    "Because she is my sister," he said simply. "And I would do anything for her."

    In Belle Époque France, an old promise binds two families. When the promised bride refuses, her brother steps forward instead—binding himself to a man shaped by pride and expectation. What begins as duty unfolds into a slow reckoning with choice, restraint, and the dangerous intimacy of wanting what you were never supposed to have.

    Summary

    “Can we meet him some day?”

    Clark hesitated. It wasn’t as though his professional life and his personal life overlapped very often, Bruce and the kids being some of the very few exceptions.

    The only way Clark would be able to introduce Bruce to the League, aside from him getting kidnapped and them having to save him, would probably be to bring him up to the Watchtower. Out of the suit. As a civilian. And Clark didn’t see Batman being comfortable with that any time soon.

    “Probably not, but we’ll see.”

    ~•~•~

    Or, Clark has finally revealed his identity to the League. Who... immediately found out he was married to Bruce Wayne. If Clark had his way, Brucie and the League would stay far, far away from each other.

    Too bad his husband didn't get the memo.
