    Summary

    "I'm hallucinating now," Damian muttered to himself, as the boy stared at him, uncertainly, "Mhm, pretty sure I'm not a hallucination."

    "That's what a hallucination would say, Richard," he said, knowing he sounded petulant. Whatever the Galra had given him to keep him quiet, it was stronger than many of the drugs he had become accustomed to during his training with the League of Assassins.

    It was only for this reason that he risked falling forward. Fortunately for him, he was promptly grabbed by the boy. It was a strong, solid grip, and definitely not a hallucination.

    Damian looked up, meeting eyes that reminded him of a dead man, and the other said, "You confused me with another person. My name is not Richard. It's Lance."

     

    (During his imprisonment on an alien ship, after sacrificing himself to save Earth, Damian meets a boy who reminds him terribly of his dead brother. He can't be who he believes, but the resemblance is striking, and Damian just wants to believe that something left by Dick Grayson still exists.)

    Summary

    Guy raised an eyebrow and turned to his friend, "So... you took the Krypton repopulation thing very seriously."

    "What?" the smile disappeared from Superman's face, replaced by genuine confusion.

    "Sure, Batman wouldn't have been my first choice, and god only knows how that happened, but I know enough alien species that can reproduce even among members of the same genus, so...congratulations, anyway. Are you already planning the next one or...?"

     

    Superman opened his mouth to speak, then closed it again, his cheeks red in total mortification. Robin pulled his cloak, "Am I really going to have a little brother? Will I have him for Christmas?"

     

    (If you don't want your coworkers to think you're having a relationship with your best friend/crush, don't bring his son to work with you. Especially when that son is a little shit who takes a lot from his father.)

    Summary

    "Tanjuro," Zenitsu gasped, and whatever he meant, the words were lost in a groan of pleasure that was swallowed up by the night around them. He clung to his shoulders, panting and hiding his face in the crook of his neck.

    Ahh, too embarrassing! Tanjirou, have mercy on his poor heart, he won't be able to take it if you keep touching him like that - as if he were precious, as if he were loved.

    And Zenitsu was, he knew he was, he just had difficulty understanding that someone like him could be loved by someone like Tanjiuro.

    Summary

    The young man stared at him, shocked.

    "You... don't you remember me?" he asked, finding it simply inconceivable.

    And Lance, in other circumstances, would have been amused by that reaction, but there was a little girl he had to bring back to her mother; he hadn't slept for almost twenty-seven hours and needed a break.

    "No, dude, now if you want to excuse me..."

    The boy turned Lance to him, their faces a short distance away, purple eyes fixed on his, and Lance's treacherous heart skipped a beat.

    "Blue Spirit, I'm Red Warrior. Do you really not remember me?"

    At that point, Lance began to break out in a cold sweat. Of course, he couldn't remember him. Lance wasn't the real one.

     

    (In which, due to a stupid stunt, the seventeen-year-old Lance dies and finds himself in the body of a villain of his best friend's favourite graphic novel, trying not to attract too much attention. Too bad for Lance, Keith doesn't make things easy for him at all.)

    Summary

    "God, Buddha... whoever is out there, please, kill me," he prayed, exhausted, unable to move a single muscle of his body. He didn’t even know how long he had been there. Yet, God or whoever it was, had not finished with him yet.

    "Oh, look... what a pleasant surprise," a voice above him said. A voice that Zenitsu knew well.

    "Tanjirou?" he thought, unsure whether to feel relieved or terrified. Somehow, the voice didn’t sound right. He barely managed to lift his head to follow the voice. Above him, dressed in a black haori and wearing his unmistakable earrings, was Tanjirou.

    But it wasn’t his Tanjirou. He didn’t need exceptional hearing or a keen sense of smell to notice it. The red eyes revealed his true nature. That was a demon.

    Summary

    "Drink from me," Tanjirou said without hesitation, while the blonde looked at him as if he had gone mad, "This way, you'll recover faster."

    "No! Are you crazy? I can just sleep like Nezuko and..."

    "Can you do it without taking more time?" he asked practically, "Can you do it without me having to lock you in a box? I can take Nezuko around, I could do the same with you, but how hard would it be on your body?"

    Zenitsu pursed his lips, "No, but..."

    "Then it's fine. Drink from me, this way, you'll feel better."

    "You don't know what you're asking me! You can't trust a vampire who is hungry! I could drain you!"

    Tanjirou shook his head, "You won't."

    "You can't know that!"

    "I do, because I know you. You won't hurt me."

     

    (In which Zenitsu is a vampire, and Tanjirou has a bad record to fall for kind people. )

    Summary

    "Why did you want to do it?" Superman asked, looking around at the new training room, the equipment and the mats that reminded him all too much of those used when he used to take Lois to yoga.

     

    "I’ve seen some videos of you and your team," Batman pursed his lips (cute!) as he said it. He was like Kendra; she would always refuse to use the name Justice Gang, finding it ridiculous. "You’re strong…"

    "Oh well, thanks…"

    "But you don’t know how to fight."

     

    (Clark thought he knew how to fight. He also thought he was 100% straight. Batman proves him wrong for both of them.)

    Summary

    So, Shang Qinghua was in trouble.
    Not the type fuck, I accidentally betrayed my king and now he's going to kill me. More than the type holy shit, I could be about to end the world.

    It was not an exaggeration. The system was silent – maybe it was trying to get back online? Had it broken forever? Was he completely alone? – and he hadn't heard from him yet, but he didn't need that damn thing to know for sure how much he was in the shit.

    The baby next to him woke up at that moment, demanding attention, and the poor cultivator hurried to take a bottle of lucky milk made by him and feed him.

    Really, what were the chances that he would find and save his protagonist?

    Summary

    Keith grunted, "I just did what you suggested. I stopped fighting."

    Shiro smiled, a warm and secret smile, reserved for only two people (and no, Lance wasn't creepy, but it was easy to see how close Shiro was to Keith and Pidge, and how little with the others), "I know it wasn't easy for you. You have managed to control your temper very well."

    "Control? I may have killed him in my head at least a dozen times. Does it seem to you that I control my temper?"

    Lance's heart sank as he heard him say it, and Shiro sighed, "We're lucky you didn't give in to your violent instincts. We don't have time to look for another blue paladin."

    "As if it could be difficult to find a replacement. You've heard Allura, the Blue Lion is the friendlier one. We could take a random guy from the space mall and he would pilot it even better!"

     

    (Just when Lance has decided to confess his feelings to Keith, he overhears a conversation between the red paladin and Shiro. But it's okay, he can pretend nothing happened! Too bad they have to go on missions together, and Keith is starting to suspect something.)

    Summary

    He should have said it was none of his business. He should have done what he was good at and been an emotionally constipated asshole. But his brain wasn't in Batman mode yet, and the brain-mouth filter wasn't working.

    “I slept with Superman…”

    Dick looked at him with his mouth open, “What?”

    “I slept with Superman,” he repeated, still in disbelief. “And no, you don't want to know how I found out…”

    “Oh my God…”

    “I didn't know who he was when he seduced me…”

    “Oh my God!”

    “But after the third time I realized something was wrong, and it looks like someone poisoned him with a different kind of kryptonite…”

    “Third time? Third time of what…Oh, oh shit…”

     

    (Bruce had been too busy lately to worry about the heroes of other cities, even the seemingly invincible aliens. But that was okay; he already had plans in case Superman went crazy. Too bad he hadn't planned for him if he accidentally slept with him.)

    Summary

    Because of his overly developed hearing, Zenitsu hides in one of the rooms of the brothel where Mr. Tengen sent him with the others.

    He couldn't have foreseen that the room would soon be occupied, nor that two men would enter.

     

    (He didn't even expect to react that way, nor to think about what it would be like to be in their place with Tanjirou.)

    Summary

    "Do you want to leave?" Tanjirou asked, half asleep.

    "Mhm…"

    Zenitsu froze as Tanjirou's lips brushed the sensitive skin beneath his ear. The contact sent shivers down his spine, conflicting violently with the throbbing in his temples. " Tanjirou, wait—" he stammered, voice raspy and strained. "Last night… it was the wine. A mistake. I didn’t—"

    Tanjirou pulled back abruptly, his drowsy warmth replaced by sudden stillness. Those crimson eyes, usually brimming with gentle certainty, now held a vulnerable, almost wounded softness. "A mistake?" he murmured, the words barely audible. His thumb traced Zenitsu's jawline, tentative and searching. "Do you regret it?"

    Summary

    "So, I think congratulations are in order," Lois greeted him when he arrived at the newsroom a full five minutes late.

    In his defense, he really really didn't want to get out of bed, and had watched ecstatically as the sun's rays illuminate Bruce's sleeping face.
    Clark was not an artist, but at that moment he had felt the need to have a pencil and paper in his hand to immortalize the moment.

    "Um... for what?" he asked, sitting down at his desk.
    She smiled at him – and wasn't it nice, to be able to see her smile without feeling that sharp pang in his chest? To be able to see her smile and be grateful that they were still friends? – and showed him the phone.
    Clark leaned forward, and flinched slightly.
    It was a photo, which was actually not very clear, of him, Batman and Robin.

    It was on a pseudo-journalistic blog, one of those where students in the journalism college began to write while waiting to work for a real newsroom.

    The title made him blush.

    Summary

    "Father, why did Superman call you babygirl?"
    His father stopped mid-belt-fastening. Richard chuckled from the backseat and swore he'd said "he got you, old man."

    He frowned at the disrespect, but his father showed no sign of hearing. In fact, he didn't seem very present.

    He spoke again, "Father, I asked..."

    "I heard you," his father said, interrupting him, his cheeks slightly red, probably from the heat of the evening's patrol. "You...when did you hear us talking?"

    "Before the car arrived. You were murmuring among yourselves. The alien was unusually close, way too close," he said, pouting, not understanding why he felt this way. "And he muttered things. Babygirl is the only thing I understood. So, what it means? It's an insult?"

     

    (Bruce regrets all his life choices, while Dick is just enjoying his father's humiliation.)

    Summary

    Seto could admit he could be reckless at times.

    It didn't matter; being reckless was what had gotten him and Mokuba out of the orphanage, with all its consequences.

    He never threw himself into a situation without knowing the costs and benefits, and the benefits were always worth it.

    Yuugi (no, Yami, at this point he could even admit that there were two, but only to himself) hadn't gotten the memo.

    Summary

    "Dick," he said, recognizing his boyfriend's son, putting his bag down on the floor, "How did you get here? Does Bruce know you're here?"

    "I have my ways," the kid said calmly, then puffed out his chest proudly. "And for you, it's Robin. I'm here for something serious. Is it true?"

    "What's supposed to be true, Robin?"

    "The harem, Superman. Does it really exist?"

    Summary

    “Birth certificate? What birth certificate?” Jason asked, confused as hell.

    “The one your neighbor gave you after…you moved back to your old apartment…” The brat’s voice suddenly trailed off, and his eyes widened. “You haven’t moved back to your old apartment yet, have you?”

    “Hell, no. Why would I?”

    “And nothing happened with Garzonas…”

    “Who the hell is Garzonas?”

    “Jason, this is important! How old are you?”

    He blinked at the apparent non sequitur, “I’m thirteen…”

    “Holy shit!”

    Summary

    "Stop using your tricks, Pegasus," Yuugi said, this time harshly, "You just want Seto to become like you, so that the Eye can control him better. You won't succeed. Seto is not a monster."

    Seto looked at him, confused. Why did he defend him? Did he really not see the twisted creature that Seto was?

    Pegasus chuckled, "So much faith in Kaiba-boy. Be careful that it is not misplaced. See... if dear Kaiba is not really a monster... who knows what he will decide to do..."

    Yuugi just looked at him, confidently. He was convinced that Seto would do the right thing. Where that trust came from, Seto had no idea.

    However, he found himself wishing he deserved it. What a silly thought, who knows where it came from.

    But that silly thought, coming from who knows where, from who knows when, gave him a minimum of lucidity, and he moved away from Pegasus.

    "Take me to my brother," he said to Yuugi.

    “Do you want to go out with Bruce?” Dick asked point-blank, being looked at by the hero as if the alien between them was the child.

    “What…”

    “Bruce obviously likes you, otherwise he wouldn't have spent time with you, not even to test a theory, and he was happy to be in your company! He can't stand people, except me and Alfred! You're special!"

    Summary

    "Go back to Metropolis, Superman. And stay away from Gotham."

    He was about to leave. Superman didn't want him to leave. He tried to stop him, but something grazed his cheek, cutting curls, and sticking to the ground behind him.
    He was amazed. Batman had been very fast! Even he hadn't realized it until it was too late!

    "That batarang was a warning," the vigilante said, his voice carefully neutral, as if discussing the weather, "The next one, it'll have kryptonite on it. Disturb me again, and I will tear myself to pieces with it."

    With that, he grabbed his motorcycle and left Superman alone to deal with the confusion and painfully tight pants.
