Summary
Lena Luthor takes a job at a summer camp to help transfer college credits, and over the course of one magical summer filled with campfires, yearning, and minor heatstroke, learns that the real emotional healing is in the friends we make along the way. Also, Kara sets things on fire, Brainy is confused, Winn digs a hole, Nia makes paper fans, Mike gets shot with a water pistol, Lena gets her hair braided, and Alex metaphorically eats popcorn in the background.

Summary
The thing with being Captain of a ship full of misfits and oddballs was that crazy wasn’t always something you faced together. Sometimes, it grew from within, escalating from a simple misunderstanding to a full-on domino effect of clashing personalities, sheer pandemonium, and miscommunication between team members that would bring Oliver Queen to tears.
Ray Palmer (the Atom) and Ray Terrill (the Ray) have the same first name. That shouldn't have been a problem, given that they never met and live in different dimensions, right? Wrong. One misunderstanding turns into many, and as the truth twists and teams are unconsciously formed, the Legends must pull themselves out of a spiral of hilarious incoherence in time to save the world.

Summary
Post-JL: Steppenwolf isn't interested in accepting defeat and walking away. Superman's proven that he's the key to conquering Earth, and Steppenwolf returns with a plan for how to deal with him. A plan that Bruce is able to throw a wrench into—but not without certain unintended consequences.
Written as a fill for the dceu_kinkmeme prompt: Bruce/Clark, involuntary soulbonding. (Full prompt in author's notes.)

Summary
Clark's stare drops as soon as he sees the flowers, his expression shifting towards something Bruce would call both confusion and endearment.
"Are those-" Clark pauses, eyes flickering back up to meet Bruce's. "You brought me roses?"
(They're not so good at the whole relationship thing-but they're trying. And that's what counts, right?)

Summary
Bruce goes to the funeral as himself for a reason. Not so he can make friends with Mrs. Kent; that part's an accident. And definitely not so he can posthumously fall for Clark Kent, which is an even bigger accident. But it's fine. He can handle it.
Until Clark rises from the grave, that is.
