Summary
When he ends up ditched in Atlanta after a fight with his dad, Tim decides to do the only sensible thing: Tell no one and make the 800 mile journey back to Gotham on his own.
Because the "call Batman when you're in trouble" rule only applies when he's Robin, right?

Summary
"Clark. What the hell is this," Lois asks, staring at Clark's Bruceman WIP folder. Clark's first instinct is to fly away, but that would still leave his fic on display for her to see. His second instinct is to blast a hole straight through his laptop screen with his heat vision, which isn't much better.
Clark, in an attempt to make some spare cash, unintentionally stumbles into the world of superhero fanfiction, becomes a prolific writer for Gotham's OTP, and tries his best to fend off rival fans who want him to convert to superbat instead.- Language:

Summary
"Why didn't you stop him?!" Margaret's tone is so frantic that BJ almost has trouble understanding her.
"What?"
"Why didn't you stop h-"
"Margaret, I got that the first time, but I don't understand what you're-"
"Hawkeye," Margaret snaps down the line, and a sickening feeling of foreboding washes over BJ.

Summary
He filled hundreds of pocket-size notebooks with every and anything that came to mind, scraps of memory, turns of phrase, lists of names, and at night he’d sit in front of the typewriter and tap away until he was too tired to continue.
It became his hallmark—O’Reilly, competent, quiet, always writing something. Fine. There were worse things to be known for.

Or: Radar comes home, starts writing, and never really works out how to stop. Life elapses. In June of 1963, a couple of old friends arrange a visit.

Summary
Vetinari's shadow flickered over him like an uneasy apparition, angle shifted every other heartbeat by the changing of the lights.
'What did she tell you?'
Vimes stalled for time, looking away, but then looking back so the man in front of him wouldn't think he was angry, or disappointed, or worse, dismissive.
'She said I was a fool and a coward,' said Vimes. 'Nice home truths to hear from the wife, eh?' He trailed off, not sure where to put his hands. He was just standing there, after all, it shouldn't matter where his hands were, but something about Vetinari always made him aware of it, always made him want to punch something, or cradle something gently until it hatched and sang.- Language:

Bookmarker's Notes
I love this fic. I think about it a lot, it's one of my favorite pieces of writing. It's concise and witty and feels like a punch in the face. Woah.

Directed-verse Gen Kill. Because conversations with surexit result in things like this.
I can't thank Petra enough for her sterling beta and American-checking work. One day, I'll remember to just do a global find & replace for round/around.
(Unfortunately, while I was jiggling chapters around to come up with the single-chapter end product, AO3 deleted all previous comments on this. I'm so sorry to the people who commented - I really appreciated all your comments!)

The second one (or: Adventures at JerseyCon) by mwestbelle
Fandoms: Bandom, My Chemical Romance

Summary
Bob is a good personal assistant (the best) and he definitely knows better than to fall in love with his boss. But when your boss is the goth-pop comic master of our time, Gerard Way, there's more to the job than keeping a datebook. There are appearances to shepherd him to, showers to make him take, and deadlines to remind him to meet. And, really, he's so earnest, it's not that surprising that a crush might develop. Just at tiny one.

Summary
Nix is a cosmology researcher at the University of Chicago, plumbing the secrets of the universe, but his time is running out. As the end of his grant approaches, he knows it's time to head back to New Jersey, to the family job awaiting him there, to his wife and his increasingly unhappy marriage. But everything and everyone he loves — the research that gives him purpose, the students he's grown unexpectedly fond of, his colleagues, in the form of Ron and especially his best friend Dick — are in Chicago. Are his career and the life he's carved for himself in Chicago worth destroying his family's expectations?

Summary
“Just tell him. He’s sixteen, for Christ’s—”
“Fourteen. And I’m not taking child-rearing advice from a sleazy spinster, thank you very much.”
She just snorted at the insult, which was as familiar and good-natured as any of hers. “What does Dick think?”
“We haven’t talked about it,” Lew said, the lie winning him a soft groan from his sister.
“Well,” she said, and Lew could practically hear her roll her eyes, the gesture so familiar and similar to the way his own son mutely reminded him every day that he considered Lew an idiot that Lew almost gritted his teeth. “Roy’s his boy too, isn’t he?”
