    Summary

    Billy Hargrove has a secret. Once a year, on his birthday, he can step into a photograph, and for twenty-four hours, the past becomes real. Usually, he spends it the same way: a familiar beach, a familiar memory, a person who used to feel like home.

    This year is different. This year, Billy finds a photo of Steve Harrington in 1983.

    There are a lot of stories about King Steve. Billy’s heard all of them. He’s just never met that version of him.

    Until today.

    Summary

    Bruce and Clark rescue each other, disagree with each other, hide in plain sight, get it wrong, misdiagnose the problem, and then, at last, give themselves a chance.

    Or: six times Bruce and Clark misunderstood each other, one way or another, plus the time they finally got it right. (Written for DCEU Superbat Week 2026.)

    Summary

    Bruce laughs at whatever Superman says in reply and… reaches out, grabs him by the shoulder, and hauls him in for a kiss.

    Dick stops watching, scrambling to get out of the library.

    No, no, no, no, no – this was all wrong. Dick must be dreaming. There’s no way he just saw Bruce…

    Cheating on Clark.

    Summary

    Post-BvS AU: Batman killed Superman—and then Metropolis was wrecked by Doomsday, not long before Steppenwolf arrived and conquered the world with innumerable swarms of parademons. Bruce's nightmare has come true, in every way but one: what's left of humanity is fighting to survive in a hostile wasteland as Steppenwolf manipulates the power of a pair of mother boxes to gradually reshape the planet to serve his needs.

    But rumors of a threat that could be greater still are finally forcing Bruce to consider taking truly drastic steps. Like bringing Superman back from the dead.
