    Summary

    “What's he like?” she asks. “Your wizard?”

    He seems to think about it for a moment.

    “Arrogant,” he finally says. “Insufferably clever. He claimed he could have been Mystra's Chosen, but he turned her down.”

    The group (sans Tav) meet Astarion by the beach. They don't meet Gale. If you ask Astarion, that just means they have to look harder.

    Summary

    Jamie hasn't seen Scotland in two years when he first meets the Doctor. Bound and sold as nothing more than a bedwarmer, the Doctor is to be his new owner, ending any hope of freedom.

    But the Doctor insists he means no harm, and his ship offers a chance to travel the universe.

    Jamie can either hate him, or start down the long road to trusting him.

    Summary

    “What do you want?” Clark asks, voice rough but steady.

    Lex exhales, soft and deliberate. Like he’s been waiting for that question. “You always assume it’s about want - what I want, what you want. But this isn’t about want. This is about proof.”

    He begins to pace now. "I had to know if it was possible. Not to kill you—at least, not yet. But to erase you. Quietly. Cleanly. No chaos, no martyrdom. Just... gone. Superman disappears, and the world doesn’t even flinch. It just keeps turning."

    He stops again—farther away now, watching Clark from an angle. “I thought it would satisfy me.”

    Clark meets his gaze, steady. “Has it?”

    Lex tilts his head. Eyes narrowing, thoughtful.

    “Not yet.”

    Lex traps Clark in an isolated chamber, hidden within a pocket dimension where no one else can reach him—and the only person he ever sees is the man who put him there.

    Summary

    “You couldn’t have grabbed the back of my shirt?” she says, voice gone annoyingly high-pitched. Somewhere on the ground, Dexter and Lily are cackling so hard they need to hold on to each other for balance.

    “How about a, ‘Thank you, Tyler?’” He’s grinning. “I’d take a ‘Gee, Tyler, what quick thinking you have.’ Or a ‘Wow, Tyler, I sure am grateful that you take care of those fast twitch muscle fibers. You do sprints?’”

    -

    Five times Tyler saves Kate and one time she saves him better than all the rest.
