Clark attends a masquerade where a handsome stranger saves him from a handsy lady. The handsome stranger isn't a stranger at all, although he acts like it. Bruce Wayne flirts with him like they don't know each other, but Clark would know that chin anywhere; would know that heartbeat from anyone else's. So why is Batman really flirting with him?

June 23 I Will Save You pawtters_ (AO3, Tumblr), LazarusII (AO3, Tumblr) Bruce/Clark, Justice League Dark: Apokalips War, 7k, Explicit
It took all of Clark’s willpower to pull away from the screams and hone in on the one heartbeat that he’d been hoping to hear for so many days.
He knew Bruce was here.
Bruce had to be here.
Sweat beaded on Clark’s forehead as he listened. There was so much—too much.
His ears caught a rasping breath and a shaky exhale before a true heartbeat; the sounds were followed by the subtle creak of kevlar. It was a familiar heartbeat, but far too slow.
Clark’s breath hitched.
Batman goes missing, and Clark is forced to confront his own feelings on how much he's grown attached to the man behind the mask. To make matters worse, the rescue mission takes the League right back to Apokolips... chaos and pain ensues

June 30 Midnight in the Garden Kira, Xanthos Samurai Bruce/Clark, No Specific Continuity, 7k, Teen and Up
If you’re reading this, I’m dead.
Clark closed his eyes and forced himself to breathe through the grief that hit him like a punch to the chest. He’d been in denial. Bruce couldn’t really be dead.
Bruce couldn’t really be dead because the last time Clark had seen him, they had been together on a rooftop in Gotham. The rooftop was a garden, a little oasis high above the lead and chrome and smoke and neon of Gotham City. Night-blooming jasmine covered the walls that bordered the garden and released a heady, sweet scent into the warm breeze. Clark had felt a little drunk on the scent as he landed on the grass among the foliage.

July 1 lost & found mita4real (AO3, Tumblr), nowrunalong Bruce/Clark, DCEU, 8k, General Audiences
Bruce has a stake in this world, more so now than he did twenty years ago when vengeance was the only thought propelling him through the days and nights.
“Maybe I am afraid,” he admits. “But I’m going to Kansas.”

July 6 Running up that Hill VK, Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog Bruce/Clark, Dark Knights of Steel, 31k, Mature
Prince Kal isn't sure if he wants to be the heir to a kingdom, or the last kryptonian, or anything like that. One thing he is sure he wants is a certain dark knight, and now he has discovered a means to get it - the Well of Wishes. The only problem is the Goblin guarding it has a little caveat to getting those seven wishes: if he can't find a wish that grants his heart's truest desire in seven years time, his heart turns to stone. And a fire-breathing dragon raining death and destruction on the kingdom and all who he loves too, but the stone heart thing would definitely make wooing Bruce a whole lot harder.

July 15 50 Shades of Wayne Butparalysis, susiecarter (AO3, Tumblr) Bruce/Clark, DCEU, 160k, Explicit
When amateur reporter Clark Kent goes to interview arrogant billionaire Bruce Wayne, he encounters a man who's opaque, difficult, and irritatingly hot. Carefully unremarkable and usually level-headed Clark becomes uncomfortably aware he wants this man, and, despite Wayne's undeniable entitlement and seemingly deliberate jackassery, finds he is desperate to get close to him. Unable to resist Clark's perceptiveness, stubbornness, and persistent generosity of spirit, Wayne admits he wants him, too—but on his own terms.
Surprised yet drawn to Wayne's singular erotic tastes, Clark hesitates. For all the trappings of success—his multinational business, his vast wealth, his unfair attractiveness—Wayne is a man tormented by demons and consumed by the need to control. When they embark on a daring, passionately physical affair, Clark discovers Bruce Wayne's secrets and explores his own dark desires.
(Or: A 50 Shades AU of BvS, full of bad decisions, terrible BDSM etiquette, identity porn, and actual porn.)

July 23 Differentiation northly, flirtygaybrit (AO3, Tumblr) Bruce/Clark, DCEU, 37k, Explicit
Superman is Clark Kent, and Clark Kent is Kal-El. But when one Superman suddenly becomes two, Bruce seeks to discover a cause (and, hopefully, a solution) to this strange phenomenon.
For Clark Kent and Kal-El, however, presenting a single face to the world proves to be a difficult feat, and navigating new dynamics within a comfortable relationship with an uncertain sense of identity is a unique challenge of its own...
but with two Supermen, anything is possible.

Clark just wants to be able to tell the world Bruce is his boyfriend, okay? (And maybe get a few of those shameless hussies who seem to overpopulate Gotham's galas to keep their paws off his man.)
