    Summary

    Stepping out was the only brave thing he had ever done, and he hadn’t even hesitated. The only brave thing he had ever done, even if it might be his last. His future was his own again.

    It wasn’t to spite his parents. It was simply to have a choice.

    He could live with that.

    Perhaps he would even have to die with it.

    Summary

    “I need your help.”

    Sansa steels her expression as Jon Snow tears his gaze from the book he’s reading to look up at her. 

    His brows furrow at the sight of her and somewhat warily asks, “Help with what?”

    She chews on her bottom lip, looks around to make sure they’re truly alone before speaking. “I need you to pretend to be my boyfriend," she rushes to say, feeling her cheeks heat up at having to say it out loud.

    Summary

    “You had my baby?” Superman asks, tilting in the air and still staring at Experiment Thirteen, as if he's somehow forgotten both how much kryptonite Lex owns and how much kryptonite he keeps specifically in this office. “While I was dead. You had my baby while I was dead.”

    . . . alright then, Lex thinks again, both eyebrows raising this time.

    “I really wouldn’t put it that way, personally,” he says. “Also, I don’t recall saying it was in any way yours.”

    Summary

    Jason had known Louise for years. She’d been his getaway driver, his alibi, a co-conspirator. He had bailed her out of the trouble she got herself into more times than he could count. With a straight face she told Batman she had never even heard of the Red Hood, while he was passed out on her couch. He confirmed to many an HR department that she definitely worked for him, uh-huh, five years in accounts? Absolutely, best accountant he’d ever had. She’d been ‘borrowing’ his vacuum cleaner for years now. He attended her grandpa's funeral.

    Boyfriends and girlfriends came and went. Heroes and villains, dubious costumes and harebrained schemes.

    They remained.

    Summary

    Mary Bennet agrees to spend the London season with the newly married Darcys. She discovers that she would still infinitely prefer a book. But hiding in the library at balls and parties is not the solution, as an odd young man keeps turning up there.

    “'Miss Bennet', she says. I did not know my Conscience would have such an ordinary name.”

    “I am not your conscience, sir,” Mary said, feeling made fun of and annoyed to be shaken out of her reverie for nonsense. “And whimsicality such as this, whilst charming in a child, is not so appealing in a grown man.”

    “Wait,” he said. “Do wait. I am so used to speaking in that silly way with silly young women that I quite forgot myself. Please stay and talk a little more.”

    (from the prompt "Mary's season in London. Her moralising is a trial to her sisters but in the end she outshines them all.")

    ETA Thank you to Prinzenhasserin for helping me bounce around some ideas, and to Burglebezzlement for the offer of betaing!
