    Summary

    The staff meeting after Cat had broken her foot had involved a lot of reassigning, since she couldn’t exactly do the usual society beat with her foot in a boot. So much that Clark hadn’t really thought twice when Perry had said “and Kent, you’ll take the new Wayne foundation piece,” because sure, he liked working the philanthropy stories occasionally. It wasn’t until they’d gotten back to their desks that Lois had burst into a fit of snickering and said “oh, I would pay money to see how you’re going to handle Bruce Wayne for two weeks,” and Clark had realized how majorly screwed he was.

    -
    On a two-week assignment, Clark does his best to figure out Bruce Wayne. Bruce does his best to make sure he can't. Unfortunately, they're just too good at working together, even when they don't know it.

    For Superbat Week 2024, day 1: identity shenanigans.

    Summary

    Swanwick gave Bruce a level, unamused look. "Mr. Wayne," he said. "Please tell me you know why you're here."

    Bruce shrugged. "Won the lottery, and first-place prize is the government marries me off to an alien."

    (Or: in a universe where Krypton took an extra thirty-odd years to implode, Kal-El was sent to Earth as an adult, in advance of the ship containing the only other surviving Kryptonians; and a quirk of Kryptonian law means negotiating refuge, potential resettlement, and an alliance with the Kryptonians in general is dependent on marriage between a Kryptonian and a human. Bruce did what it took to make sure that that human would be him, instead of some poor unprepared civilian—but his efforts to learn more about the aliens, what they want and why they're here, and how, if necessary, to kill them ... don't go the way he's expecting them to.)

    Summary

    “Hey Ma, hey Pa! I’m home!”

    Clark’s voice. So familiar it tugged at something deep in Bruce’s chest.

    He blinked awake just as Clark stepped into view—jeans, white t-shirt, open red overshirt catching the breeze. And that smile. Bright, unguarded, devastating in a way Bruce hadn’t been prepared for.

    God, he was beautiful.

    Bruce gets sent back in time, turned into a teenager again, and the worst part is that Clark Kent is way too pretty for his own good. How the hell is he supposed to focus on getting home?

    Summary

    It started like any other day. Clark woke up, went to work, and attended the 75th Annual Wayne Foundation Gala. It ended with Batman kissing him on the rooftop of the GCPD.

    Then the day happened again. And again. And again.

    For most people, finding themselves stuck in a time loop would be the worst of their troubles, but for Clark Kent, it's only the start of his.
