ardbert settles into his new life on the source, ever accompanied by the one person most familiar to him.

Summary
There is no time. He has no time for questions. There is only Althea’s weightless and unmoving body limp in his arms. There are only her weak pleas to let her go. To lay her down to rest. To leave her to die. To run far, far away from her, and begin again in a world that will still be filled with Light without her.
thancred carries the warrior of darkness down from mt. gulg, because it could never be anyone else.

Summary
Benoit forces himself to look up at Jud from where he was attempting to decipher the Father's scribbled notes. Jud stands there, shaky hands hanging loosely at his sides, in a dark sweater and grey sweatpants that Benoit knows are only staying up due to the efforts of some tightly-drawn drawstrings. Hair dripping, cheeks rosy, eyes bloodshot, beautiful.
Road to fucking Damascus.

Summary
As much as Clark denied any relationship between himself and the alien, Lex couldn’t help but feel as though there was a reason Superman trusted Clark, and Clark only, to interview him. So, he took matters into his own hands.
In which Lex occasionally hooks up with Clark Kent to 'get back' at Superman, but it turns out Clark Kent is connected to Superman in a way that Lex never expected.
