Summary
He is trying to think about ways to make himself disappear as stealthy as he can when someone sits right next to him. He doesn’t remember crossing his arms on the wooden countertop and smushing his face between them, but he knows it’s not Alfred next to him.
Dark blue slacks of opaque polyester, gray trainers, a leather messenger bag. It takes him way more than usual to connect the dots, but the second he does he snaps his head up, trying not to fall from his seat.“Oh, I’m sorry, didn’t mean to scare you.”
Clark.

or, four times Clark breaks Bruce's heart without knowing, and one time he doesn't. -

Summary
Clark might not feel uncomfortable, but the cave is not just cold, no, it’s closer to penguins might thrive cold, and of course Bruce is there, bent over his computer with his suit on, lacking the cowl and the heavy cape. He didn’t even wash his eyegrease off, and Clark can smell the acidic sweat of sickness clinging to his body. And he is sure there’s no need for superpowers, anyone close enough could smell it, it’s so thick.
“Oh, Bruce.” He sighs again, getting closer to the stubborn, stubborn man he loves so much. “You idiot.”
“Good to see you too.” Bruce replies, with a voice so scratchy he sounds like he is actively chewing on broken glass. Jesus.

Summary
In that moment, though, a fear so deep and so quick shook him to his very core. As it gripped his lungs and heart and throat, he let out a raspy gasp, then a yell, his voice sounding wrong, not used to being raised that much.
“Dickie?

Summary
Beyond the onslaught of comestibles are Ma and Pa Kent. They’re seated next to each other, which isn’t traditional, and also makes this feel even more like a job interview Bruce is failing. He thinks. He’s never actually had a job interview, never mind failed at one. That may be part of the problem.
“So,” he begins, a tentative foray into the awkward silence broken only by the sounds of Jonathan’s fork scraping mashed potatoes onto his plate. “How’s the, ah, harvest this year?”
“Bad,” Jonathan says, and does not elaborate.

Summary
“I guess,” Midoriya sighs. “But then – some of the pro heroes are our teachers, you know? And still, it’s not like any of them are... I mean, it’s certainly not a common occurrence for a hero to be... out.”
Out? Aizawa thinks. He begins to suspect that he knows what this conversation is about.

Summary
“Do you think someone quirkless can be a hero?”
Hizashi’s eyebrows shoot up to his forehead.
“Do I —?”
“Nevermind, that was a stupid question, I shouldn’t —”
“Hey, no, no, kid,” Hizashi hastens to reply, pushing past the surprise. “Hasn’t anyone ever told you there’s no stupid question?”
:: Sometimes, this kid Hizashi only knows as 'Mido' calls in to the show. Hizashi's pretty sure Mido's quirkless, but he's also a pretty smart kid. One Hizashi probably wouldn't mind having in his class in a couple of years.
