    Summary

    In another universe, a much darker version of Batman has been holding Superman captive for a year.

    In this one, Bruce was only planning to neutralize an interdimensional threat. He didn’t plan on a rescue mission. He didn’t plan to take home a hurt, broken captive who may or may not be a version of the Clark Kent he knows. But now that he has, he needs to figure out what to do with him without putting the whole planet at risk.

    It takes Clark a while to realize he hasn’t just traded one abuser for another, more dangerous one.

    Summary

    “We’ve – ” We’ve met, Wylan had been about to say. He cut himself off in time, his own father glaring at him. “Your Highness,” Wylan bowed low, bending at the waist. “It is – it is my honor.”

    He’d bent too, that night in the Barrel – did the Prince know? Or perhaps, worse-better-worse, had he been so unremarkable that the Prince had forgotten about him? Wylan swallowed, muscle memory forcing him to remember his lessons: he could rise only when the Prince allowed it.

    ------------

    Or, an arranged marriage AU where Jesper is Novyi Zem’s wayward prince, Wylan sneaks out before his betrothal to enjoy the company of a Zemeni man, and Jesper adopts a goat – not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    DeFonda Hepburn had met many parents in her many years as a nanny, but she'd never met parents quite like the Potters.
    Strangely enough, they have more in common than she thought.

    Summary

    “Your parents have been grooming you to take over the company, correct? You’ve been working closely alongside them, alongside their best scientists and technicians. I’m sure you’ve learned a fair deal. We could use that expertise at Stark Industries.”
    “Essentially,” Parker says, “you want to pay me to reveal my parents’ company secrets.”
    “Yes,” Tony says, cheerfully. “Thank you for catching on so quickly.”

    Tony’s week just turned a lot more promising: Rich kid Peter Parker has apparently dropped out of college and provoked the ire of his parents. A delicious scandal for the tabloids. And an opportunity too good to waste, even if it means putting up with a snooty, preppy college kid as his new intern.

    Summary

    Alrakis • I [24M] attended a small boarding school in the UK. There was a boy in my year, a couple of months younger than me, and he became my nemesis after we developed an intense rivalry. My friend [25F] told me recently that our dynamic was "weird back then" and that "it’s even weirder" that I still think about him today. She argued that I talk about him all the time, but I believe the amount I talk about him is reasonable. AITA?

    prongymcprongface • i completely get what you mean. i had a nemesis (like a school one, separate to my other nemesis) and we had a dynamic super similar to what you are describing. having a nemesis is a very cool and normal thing dw about it. NTA

    In which Draco asks the internet if he's being reasonable. Only one commenter is sympathetic. They start talking.
