    Summary

    “You want us to foster a kid?” Mike finally asks, disbelieving. Will is half convinced that El will laugh in their faces, clearing up the misunderstanding with a, “No, silly. I want you to water my plants.”

    “It doesn’t have to be forever,” El says. “Just until I can find another home for him. I can’t stand him living in the shelter anymore. Not right now. He needs emotional support. And don’t lie to me— I know you two have been wanting kids. This can be a trial run.”

    Will and Mike are tasked with fostering an emotionally distant, judgmental, sassy twelve-year-old boy from El’s shelter. As hard as they try to win his heart, they seem to be making no progress. After all, how could two strangers earn the trust of a boy who’s been hurt time and time again?

    Summary

    Bruce Wayne never expected to walk into a church again - let alone with his four-year-old son in his arms. But when a meeting with Clark Kent, a priest. It turns into more than polite conversation, Bruce finds himself disarmed by a man who shouldn’t have surprised him at all. Clark is broad-shouldered, and impossibly kind; a believer in things Bruce turned his back on the day of his parents’ funeral.

    Bruce is skeptical, Clark is steadfast. Their ideologies clash from the moment they sit across from one another: billionaire pragmatism versus the faith of a priest. But somewhere between coloring books at Clark’s desk and quiet invitations to community fairs, a dangerous warmth grows. Bruce doesn’t know how to name it, and Clark doesn’t dare.

    Because whatever is happening between them - it shouldn’t. Bruce pushes, searching for the language he can’t bring himself to say aloud, while Clark whispers what he shouldn’t confess at all: I can’t. A vow binds him to the Church, but his heart betrays him in every secret meeting, every glance held too long.

    It shouldn’t work. It can’t work. But it does. And as much Clark Kent prays, temptation seeps through.

    Summary

    Panic begins to run through his veins, speeding up his pulse and his breathing. “I can’t– why don’t I remember it? I don’t remember any of it.”

    Mike blanches. “Any of what, Will?”

    Jonathan’s hand is on his knee. Both of them are too close. He can’t breathe.

    “The Upside Down. I… I can’t remember any of the Upside Down.”

    Summary

    Clark Kent
    Professor in the ENGLISH DEPARTMENT
    METROPOLITAN GOTHAM ACADEMY

    LIT 229
    Rating: 2/5

    "Professor Kent WILL hijack entire lectures to gush about his husband. Doesn’t matter if we’re supposed to be analyzing Shakespeare—suddenly we’re all trapped listening to how ‘incredible’ his husband looked making pancakes. Apparently, love is real and I’m just failing this class because I couldn’t remember what book his husband bought him for their anniversary.

    Also, he laughs at his own puns. Loudly. All the time. The man is unstoppable. Someone PLEASE tell me who married this menace because I need to know who willingly signed up for this life."

    Lois Lane, being the investigative journalist she aspires to be, has to unravel the mystery behind her professor's secret husband.
