    Summary

    I held it for a long moment and waited for ART’s litany to run out of steam. When it finished, it did the bot equivalent of taking a deep breath, then said, I am so mad at you.

    “I got that.” I know I’m not great at the emotions thing but even I could figure out ART was pissed at me from the raging storm of its feed presence and, you know, all the insults. “Why?”

    Summary

    He heard Clark shift in the chair — that particular adjustment, weight redistributing, the prelude to something. Bruce had catalogued Clark's physical vocabulary over six years without meaning to, and he knew, from the sound of it, that Clark was about to say something he considered important.

    "I want you to be my best man."

    Bruce's heart did something it was not supposed to do. A single, traitorous beat off the rhythm — brief, a flicker, the kind of weakness he had not permitted himself in years. He was aware, with the cold certainty of a man who had made a study of Clark Kent's capabilities, that Clark had heard it.

    He set the tablet down.

    Summary

    Bruce tried to work out the words, ask for one last moment of clemency. "Does he..."

    Other-Bruce looked at him with something that almost approached warmth.

    "...He does. In every single universe, he loves you. Even the ones where he tries to kill you. Even the ones where you're penguins. Especially the penguin ones."

    -

    (Inspired by EEAAO) An aftershock of the Rift from Superman (2025) rips through space and temporarily displaces Bruce. What he witnesses in the ensuing journey through alternate--and sometimes absurd--timelines leads him toward the undeniable bond between him and Clark. (Yes, there are hot dogs in this one.)
    (Clark has passed away in one alternate universe. Rest assured, he remains 100% okay in this story's original universe!)

    Summary

    "Ah Twilight, you got the brief?"

    "Yes I did. A month, Handler?"

    "Please, compared to some of the work you've done? A month is nothing."

    "In this field, a month is a lifetime."

     

    They say absence makes the heart grow fonder. I wonder if it will ring true for the pretend family that acts far too real? Twilight has to leave for a WISE assignment while Yor and Anya hold down the fort at home. How will they all handle the disruption to their already fragile family structure? It's a tough trial to weather, but perhaps their bond will prove to be lot stronger than they thought.
