    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

    “Moonlight Desire,” Bruce reads from the infocard with barely disguised derision. “When Eli Rivera is hired to design a new eco-space for alpha CEO Julian Wolfee—” He snorts aloud at that, and Clark playfully nudges his thigh. “—flowers aren’t the only thing that begin to bloom in the Chicago high-rise.”

    --

    ugh isn't it annoying when you're too "woke" to enjoy a stupid lifetime movie?

    Or: Clark is determined to court Bruce, who's definitely over all of it.

    Summary

    “I don’t like surprises,” Bruce says tightly, after surveying the setup. It strikes Clark’s heart like an arrow.

    “Maybe,” he tries, “you’d like a night off?”

    Yeah, no, he hears it as soon as he says it. Batman? A night off? Ha! Right, on the twelfth of never, for sure. Bruce’s dubious silence says the same thing, but…

    Well, Clark has to try, right?
