Summary
He could almost feel Steve’s stare burning a hole through his head. ‘I don’t understand Tony, what can you possibly do out of your suit that we haven’t already tried?‘
It’s Widow that puts it together first. ‘It’s not what. It's who.'

Summary
Jaster has to admit that he has been pleasantly surprised by how the latest complicated political maneuver is turning out. He was not happy about letting one of his sons enter an arranged marriage – because they are his sons, for all that their origin is baffling and there are so, so many of them – but he made a very logical, reasonable case for it and was determined to help and. Well. Those are exactly the qualities that the next generation will need.
Kote has been married three months now and it seems to be going well. He is managing. He doesn't even complain privately about his wife the way Jaster thought he might.
The clones are not from this world. Jaster knows this. They know it. They don't remember anything concrete, no people, no places. They just have impressions and feelings and impulses they can't follow up on because they don't know where to start. Kote told him in that conversation that he knew he loved someone dearly in that last life but that he's already come to terms with the fact that he will most likely never find them, so he is the best choice for a political marriage where emotions are not expected to be included.

Summary
The kid reaches out slowly, drops the knife in his hand, and peers up through his bangs to look vaguely past Jim.
Deniability goes straight out the window.
"Jason? Jason Todd?"
or: random criminals aren't the only one that might recognize Robin's moves in a catatonic teenager

Summary
When Lex Luthor finally gains control of Superman, he doesn’t make him destroy the world. That would be a waste.
Instead, Lex removes the noise. The hesitation. The endless moral calculations that come with trying to save everyone. The noise.For a brief, impossible moment, Clark Kent experiences something he hasn’t felt since he became Superman:
Peace.
The Justice League breaks Lex’s control, the world celebrates, and the hero returns.
But Clark remembers.
And one night, exhausted by the weight of a world that never stops needing him, Superman flies to Lex Luthor’s penthouse. Not to threaten him.
To ask a question he’s afraid to say out loud... and Lex is waiting.
(Fic where Clark has to try and avoid the temptation of submitting to brainwashing from Luthor to lift the weight of the world on his shoulders (and fails). Lots of philosophical discussions. Very slow burn enemies to something, Superman/Luthor. Batman will show up at some point because I love him. Based on this prompt; https://shineyma.tumblr.com/post/799032163422093312)
