Summary
Innocent is looking out of the window as though he can see something more there than the blackness of a howling winter night. “I find myself wishing for his guidance.”
“If it is of any comfort,” Aldo tries, “He trusted Thomas to steer the Church through the Conclave. He was sure of his integrity like he was of no one else’s here. And Thomas has complete faith in you. You can be sure of his counsel.”
“I know I can. He’s been a blessing.” At the mention of Thomas, Innocent had brightened, but there is something searching in his expression when he looks back at Aldo, like he hadn’t quite gotten the answer he wanted.
Or: Aldo and Vincent discover that they have some things in common.

Summary
Finally, they arrive at the homily. Benítez is much briefer than his predecessor. And yet, his speech feels fuller, somehow. He pins them all under the darkness of his gaze. When his eyes land on Aldo, he feels as if Benítez has stripped him bare, that he can see the horrible, green monster that writhes beneath his breast. He speaks of love and light, a desire to move them forward into the future while paying homage to the past. Aldo feels trapped in that damned vote, watching the world crumble under his feet.
The morning after Vincent Benítez is elected Pope Innocent XIV, Aldo Bellini attends morning mass. He tries to grapple with the scale of everything he's lost to Benítez: his role as Secretary of State, the Papacy, and Thomas Lawrence.
Or, the one where Aldo is still sore about the conclave, and he has to navigate his new place in the Curia while trying to sort out his feelings for Thomas and Vincent. They all have feelings about this, separately, and then together.

Summary
"Clark. What the hell is this," Lois asks, staring at Clark's Bruceman WIP folder. Clark's first instinct is to fly away, but that would still leave his fic on display for her to see. His second instinct is to blast a hole straight through his laptop screen with his heat vision, which isn't much better.
Clark, in an attempt to make some spare cash, unintentionally stumbles into the world of superhero fanfiction, becomes a prolific writer for Gotham's OTP, and tries his best to fend off rival fans who want him to convert to superbat instead. -

Summary
They travel together, hand in hand, like a peculiar pair of conjoined twins so unlike one another and joined not in birth but in death. Perhaps it is this circumstance that strengthens his attachment so, for wherever they may be when their clocks run out, Boris knows, hears it in the vibrations of the ether, that he will not be alone.
Boris gets hold of a bottle of cognac and the two men have an honest talk in Valery’s hotel room.
