Between the drought and the Depression and the dust, and keeping the farm on what’s left of its feet, Clark Kent has a lot on his plate. But the Kents have been hospitable as long as there’ve been Kents in Smallville, and putting up a meteorologist for a few days while his car’s fixed isn’t that much of an imposition.
In other news the exact same story: Bruce Wayne, playboy prince of Gotham, is getting married. Just… not yet. Right now, you see, he’s got a science mystery to solve—in Kansas of all places.
In which Bruce helps out around the place, digs around in the dirt after space rocks, uncovers several decades-worth of buried secrets, falls more than a little bit in love, tells a lot of lies, is part of the Great Cow Rescue of 1935, and (a couple of times) is rescued himself.
A Dust Bowl AU in which billionaire Bruce meets Smallville Clark, and sparks Clark dust flies! Written for the Superbat Big Bang 2025, with amazing art by @miratho
