    Summary

    It’s too bad Batman can’t attend the Justice League meeting after being hit by that magic spell, though maybe there's a way for Clark to bring him along.

    For Superbat Week 2024, Day 2: Traveling together

    —

    “Damn. Must’ve been one hell of a mission if he’s still down for the count.”

    “Ah, yeah. But he’s fine, just—indisposed.” It’s a miracle Clark's voice remains steady. He’s not entirely sure what his face is doing, but he tries to force a neutral expression. Although maybe he’s overdoing it. Is he overdoing it? Is Hal looking at him weirdly or is that just his imagination?

    “Which almost never happens. Hope he’s okay, wherever he is.”

    Clark shifts discreetly in his seat.

    Summary

    Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a mission he doesn't remember volunteering for. Alone on a ship scaled far too large for a borrower, he has to try to figure out why he's so far from home, and what he's supposed to do. On top of that, he needs to figure out why this mission is so prepared to have a borrower on the crew--standing at only six inches tall, it's easy to think none of this was meant for him. And yet, everywhere he looks he finds evidence that whoever built this ship built it with both humans and borrowers in mind.

    An impossible task looms over him. A scientific mystery has somehow sent him hurtling through space, impossibly far from any other human or borrower, and it's on him to surpass an extinction-level threat that doesn't care how big someone is. It will end the world all the same if he doesn't do something about it.

    But, despite what he thinks, he's not alone.

    Summary

    When an errant spell shrinks Bruce, Clark and Lois ends up with their hands full while they wait for him to be returned to normal size. But even though Bruce is irritated by his current predicament, it seems like magic has its perks.

    For Superbat Week 2025, Day 6: "This is why I hate magic."

    —

    “Hey,” Lois says, frowning at the screen, striking the keys of the keyboard with enough force that Clark is worried about its structural integrity. “I thought you said Bruce was joining us.”

    “I’m right here,” Bruce says with irritation, but his voice is too small to reach her ears across the room.

    “Hm?” Lois says, apparently catching some of Bruce’s voice after all, although she doesn’t seem to be able to make out the words.

    “Yeah,” Clark says sheepishly. His gaze flicks down to Bruce, who seems endlessly exasperated with this arrangement already. “About that.”

    Summary

    Bruce lives his life by three simple rules, as every borrower does:

    Only take that which he needs, that the humans won’t notice missing.

    Stay out of sight and notice, leave no trace behind.

    And never, ever be Seen.

    Bruce has never been good at following the rules.

    For Superbat Week 2025, Day 3: Different worlds for different folks

    —

    “You okay?” Clark says, concern in his tone and a friendly smile on his face. Twice he’s saved Bruce’s life now, and he’s just as nonchalant as the first time. He rests his elbows on his knees, and Bruce sees one of his hands twitch as if he wants to reach out.

    Bruce gives him a nod, clearing his throat. “I’m fine. Thank you.”

    “You’re welcome. What are you doing out here?” A worried line appears between Clark's brows.

    “Borrowing,” Bruce says, matter-of-fact.

    Summary

    When Pamela, Harley, and Selena recruit Lois to get their boys to finally get together, Clark finds himself with some big trouble, and then a big boyfriend. Not the Valentine's date Bruce had in mind, but he is nothing if not creative.
