Semi-estranged, Exs, Lovers, Old Co-Workers, Friends-with-Benefits. Gar and Raven can't seem to figure out what they are, exactly. Maybe this time things will work out. Or not.

Summary
How much did she want to tell him? Did she want to tell him that it was a chore looking in the mirror knowing she was brought back for the sole purpose and being the bride of a 14-year-old psychopath? That being tied to a body again felt like a punishment for all of the wrong she did as a servant to her father? That if she could she would rip this new prison to pieces if it meant she could rest again?
Raven struggles with having a physical form, and Gar tries to help.

After Hours (a Lois & Clark Story) by lesvagabondes

Summary
When Clark Kent joins the Daily Planet, to say Lois Lane is unconvinced is the understatement of the year. That wholesome, apple-pie earnestness might play well in Smallville, but here? Metropolis will chew him up in two deadlines or less— she’s seen it happen before and it isn't a pretty sight.
Three months into the cape-and-rescue business, Clark is still figuring out how to do this right. Working as a reporter is the perfect cover— Superman might save lives in the spotlight, but he gets to listen to the people he tries his best to protect. For now, he sticks to what he knows: trial and error, a little fortune spent on dry-cleaning bills, and trying to land on Lois's good side.
They shouldn't work— she questions everyone and everything; he trusts everyone and finds beauty in everything. But somewhere between the day-to-day newsroom chaos, the Superman-sized threats, and the exhausting business of staying alive, they end up operating as a team— with the dangerous inevitability of two people who were always going to collide.
Loosely inspired by the James Gunn movie, this is my take on this iconic duo. Mostly an office romance with lots of fluff, hurt/comfort, and family drama.

Summary
A decade after a Tamaranean princess crash lands on earth, the Titans are a very different team. Between conflicting responsibilities across the country, calls from higher powers, floundering civilian careers, intergalactic politics, and with new members who can more than handle themselves, they start to wonder what they’re holding onto.
This is a story about endings.
The domino chain that follows is unavoidable: Raven hiccups into a sob and that breaks the last thread of Gar’s shakily held back composure, heart twisting like a knife and Raven breaks into a dry heave which sends them both spiraling and-

He's not panicking. He is completely calm. He is in full control of his mind and body.

In, two, three, four.
Out, two, three, four.
(don't panic.)
He's acknowledging his feelings about the woman he loves shaking from tears in front of him, aaand he's letting those feelings go.
He's acknowledging that he really fucking hates bullshit yogi-speak and he's ignoring that.
He's letting all of the muscles in his body relax. No fear, no pain, no nothing.

Summary
There are always people you can't save. There is a level of human brokenness that can find its way past all of your optimism and good intentions, make a home in your compassion, love, and loneliness, and then explode, destroying you from the inside out. In the wake of Terra's betrayal and death, Gar is still grappling with these lessons, and with his own grief.
And he's not the only one.Bookmarked by ratcousin

Summary
Most would find the prospect of an assassin sneaking into their quarters to be distasteful, to say the very least. A different time, a different place, a different assassin—Dom might have felt the same. But late into the autumn night, in the Treckish royal palace of Volaska, with Sorasa Sarn on her way to his bedchambers, Domacridhan of Iona felt nothing of the sort.
-
Dom and Sorasa strike a deal in Trec. It's mostly a slow and silly build into inevitable smut.
