Summary
The purr is called urvishulahdh. The cultural anthology tells him that it can be used to calm children, or even as a self-soothing mechanism, but it is most common between family members as an expression of contentment, tranquility, peace.
Clark stares at the 3D anatomy diagram of the throat, the auxiliary vocal cords layered underneath the human-like main set, as they slowly vibrate, and asks the Fortress in halting Kryptonian to play the associated audio.
Kryptonians purr. Clark purrs, and then doesn't. Until he needs to.

Emergency Contact Protocol by Bean_in_a_Pan

Summary
He grabbed a random shirt from his laundry pile to throw on before opening his bedroom door. “Hello?” he called out, looking around his apartment. The curtains swayed around an open window he swore he closed before bed. “Is anyone there?” Nothing looked like it had been disturbed, and no one was hiding anywhere when he did a sweep with his X-ray vision. He couldn’t hear anyone either. With a final glance around and a sigh, Clark concluded it must’ve been nothing and turned to return to his room-
There was a child behind him.
_________________________________________
Bruce has made it clear that in an emergency, Dick is to get Superman as soon as possible.
Dick is well-versed and very aware of this protocol.
Superman is not.

Summary
“It is a connection to family.” She says at some point. “The sight of a Vulcan woman’s hair unconstrained is reserved for mates and familiar relatives only. With the slight constant mental connection between all Vulcans, this is one way of maintaining privacy.”
Kirk smiles lightly. “I bet it must feel nice then, going to visit your family. You get to put your hair down, relax a bit.”
“Vulcans do not feel anything, Captain.” Spock replies.
He is wrong in other ways. She does not correct them.
OR:
Spock has spent her entire life with a physical reminder that she will never be accepted. The Enterprise changes some things.

Summary
“I’m not ordering Hawaiian,” Jason said immediately as he pulled up the menu for the local pizza place. He stayed pressed to Dick’s side, revelling in the physical pressure provided by human contact, and he was pretty sure Dick was also leaning back into him as well.
“Not even if I say please?” Dick asked sweetly.
“Fuck that.” Jason ordered a Hawaiian anyway.

Summary
“Bruce doesn’t always mean it when he yells, Damian,” Timothy sighs. “He just isn’t good at expressing himself. He is worried about you too, you know. And he is glad we are both safe.”
Damian closes his eyes and refuses to cry in front of his rival. Timothy doesn’t comment on it. Instead he places a gentle hand on Damian’s head for a second before he gets up and quietly exists the room again to give Damian his privacy.
*
Damian is 13 when he meets his father for the first time - the same age as his rival (and brother) Timothy Drake. This changes everything and nothing.

He knows the pain Bruce is trying to spare, the gnawing, aching feeling of hunger that no child should ever know.
It bites at Clark -- scrapes at his very marrow, the things that sink deeper into him than Kal or Superman. To think that Gotham believes Bruce Wayne to be a man who has never known want.

Summary
There was an explosion, and the sound of breaking dishes. Dick feared an attack or attempted kidnapping. The noises came from the kitchen, where Alfred was standing.
He rushed over, pulling out his escrima sticks, ignoring Bruce yelling at him, "Wait! Dick!"
Hell, he didn't take orders from Bruce. Not anymore. When he got to the kitchen, what he found was… well… there were shards of glass and ceramic on the floor, and burn marks on the table, but there weren't any killer ninjas like he'd thought.
Instead there was Alfred, picking up the pieces with a broom, and two children, perhaps eight, maximum ten years old.
One was holding the other's hand, saying, "Hey, it's okay. I'm nervous in the mornings without coffee, too."
"What the hell."

Summary
It was just a lamp. Clark bought it at a yard sale for three dollars, to give Bruce as a present when he had no money for anything else. The stained glass flower design looks ridiculously out of place in the Batcave. Bruce should have gotten rid of it years ago.
But times change, and Clark and the primrose lamp become constants of Bruce's world.
Until the light goes out, and the world forces him to let go.

Summary
Superman is kidnapped by aliens whilst conducting an interview as Clark Kent. He feels guilty about the poor civilian who got caught up in this mess with him.
“Mr Wayne. Please take this seriously.”
“I take everything seriously Superman. I’m Batman.”
“Look, it’s obvious you don’t believe me…”
“I do believe you.”
“…but I really am Superman, and I want you to know that whatever happens I will do my best to protect you.”
“Since your powers are being hindered it seems to me that I’ll be the one protecting you.”
“Right,” Clark sighed, not bothering to argue.
“Because I’m Batman.”
“Sure.”- Language:

Summary
In the cosmic joke that is Kon-El's life, the universe pulled one final prank. The multiverse had itself a do-over, and decided to reset itself without Kon-El. It reset, and everyone he loved now lived a whole life without him. They remember a world where he never existed, never made an impact in their lives. It all would have been fine and dandy, too, if the universe had actually done the thing properly.
But Kon's still here, somehow. A ghost in the machine, carrying all the ghosts of his old timeline with him. Maybe it would be easier if he stayed away from all the people wearing his friends faces.
...Kon's taking the universe reset just fine, why do you ask?
