Summary
“I can’t believe this. Darkseid took you, and then you—you just—” Cassie cuts herself off, swiping at a bit of sweat on her upper lip. “You’ve been missing for two years. We thought he’d killed you, or—or, I dunno, sucked out all your mojo to use in a giant space laser or something, and now you’re sitting here calling him Doug.”
OR:
In a universe where Secret stayed with Darkseid on Apokalips, Cassie finds herself captured by the Female Furies.

Summary
Kon's been an established part of the Metropolis Vampire Coven for the past six years. Sure, he's got his fair share of skeletons in the closet, but he's done his best to put them aside in favor of his new life in a new city.
However, when a new pair of masked hunters starts targeting vampires in Bludhaven, he is forced to strike an uneasy alliance with the local coven. And as people from his old life begin to surface in his new one, he'll have to face more than just the Bat and the Bird if he wants to keep his world from unraveling.

Summary
“Holy shit,” Damian blurts out, incredulous, just as the typing in the background, abruptly, stops.
Jon closes his eyes, and mushes his forehead further into the telephone box. Dammit. He’d found the arrest documentation then. “Look,” he begins.
“You got busted in the Iceberg Casino raid?”
“It was a deep cover mission—”
“You were gambling? You. Mr. Goody-Two-Shoes Teen-Role-Model Jonathan Kent.”
--
Or: in which Jon gets arrested, steals Kon's jacket, and becomes one with a garbage truck (not necessarily in that order)

Deeply Alien Kryptonians AU by GnomeWithALaptop
Fandom: DCU, Supergirl (Comics), Supergirl (TV 2015), Superman (Comics), Superman - All Media Types
02 Apr 2024
Summary
A collection of (mostly) unconnected one-shots based around this non-canon deleted scene from Superman: American Alien.
In essence, the idea is that Kryptonians in their natural form are non-humanoid and "deeply alien." However, Clark's DNA was forcibly rewritten during his journey to Earth, making him appear human -- that way he could "belong."

Summary
There’s something wrong with Dick.
Tim thought everything was getting back to normal. Bruce was alive and back in their timeline, the Birds of Prey were once again operating out of Gotham, Dick had the city well under control as Batman and even Damian had been less obnoxious than usual.
And then during a firefight at a warehouse by the docks, Tim was almost hit by a flying boomerang. And Dick never noticed.

Summary
It's just an ordinary kidnapping. Rather embarrassing, if you asked Tim. All he had to do was escape. Except that didn't work quite as planned. In fact, it didn't work at all.

Summary
We’re on an American road trip,” Adrien says, looking over at Marinette to see that she’s giving him one of her soft smiles, one of the ones where she looks like she’s halfway between wanting to tease him and wanting to kiss him.
“An American road trip,” the waitress repeats with a little shake of her head and a laugh. “Well, I sure hope it’s as glamorous as you make it sound, darlin’.”
or
after the events of metamorphosis, adrien and marinette attempt to find their version of normal.

Summary
Adrien has mastered the art of the smile. Even while his mind is on poor behavior, when he's caught beneath a barrage of unkind thoughts to himself, he's still able to keep his smile. Attend his friends' parties, maintain small talk, get through the day — and hopefully his friends won't realize how messed up he really is.
Everyone is out-pacing him. While he's barely getting out of bed in the morning, his friends are making waves, changing lives, getting engaged.
He can't even get his girlfriend to text him back.
So, sure. Maybe he's not in the best head space right now — but 'suicidal'? Ladybug's certainly just reading too deeply into things. But if her concern for Chat Noir's mental state is enough to get her reaching out, well, he won't turn down the opportunity to chat with a friend. Besides, Ladybug seems to be having a rough go of it, too. Maybe they can help each other out.
(a Ladynoir hurt/comfort texting fic, with established Adrienette)
