Summary
“There's nothing to report. In any case, I'm not the one you should be consulting with,” He continues, snapping off a plate of armor with a click that echoed hollowly against the tile walls, “seeing as I was off the field for the majority of the incident.” He tenses around that last word, incident, grinding it between his teeth before spitting it into the air.
“Really?” Clark lowers himself onto the bench, keeping a conscious distance between them. Bruce doesn’t turn to face him. Instead he shifts his weight away, practically hovering over the edge of his seat as he works at his other boot. “The prints say otherwise.”
Bruce freezes, a half-loose knot pulled taut between his hands.
“The what?”

Summary
Clark sucks in a breath, letting the thudding of his own heart melt into the cacophony. Focus. One body among hundreds, one heartbeat among thousands. Easy.
Well, theoretically.
The moment Clark lets the noise in, the babble of a hundred bodies rushes through his head. Heaving lungs, simmering stomachs, dry chuckles as alcohol burns in throats. He stumbles backward in quiet shock. Hopefully he just looks drunk.
It’s all too much. Listening for one man is like playing Where’s Waldo with Bruce’s biology. Possible, sure, but he doesn’t have time for games. Not tonight.Clark investigates Batman's recent disappearance from the League and meets an uninvited guest.

Summary
She doesn’t notice as he slips back into the crowd, already laser-focused on nudging her way to the front of the scene. A few more wayward elbows swing here and there, but the yellow tape holding back the crowd flashes between the bodies, barely in her sight.
Mei’s a few feet away from a front-row seat when she collides with a kid doing what looks to be—at least from the split-second she sees of him before getting a faceful of his backpack—the exact same thing as her.A quick pre-canon fic in which Izuku and Mei first meet on the sidelines of a hero fight.

Clark was glad; he wasn’t getting close to anyone, not while slimy ghosts of handprints were smeared all across his body, inside it.
It was better than it was before, of course. Before, he had looked like a corpse.

Summary
Clark stops in his tracks.

Bruce was captured by aliens three months ago. On the League's rescue mission, Clark faces knowing Bruce's body far too well, and being separated from it for far too long.
