caiusbackupPrompt: Batman/Superman. A funny mood where Batman jokes and actually shows his Bruce side to Superman.
Timing note: Watchtower-era, post-COIE retcons.
Strictly speaking, neither Batman nor Superman was a full member of the Justice League. And yet.
It was, somehow, the third time that week they'd been on the Watchtower alone together.
Clark was starting to wonder if it was a plot. Batman, detective that he was, appeared to be taking it in stride. Possibly the plot was his.
But, whatever the reason, there they were. Ralph was home with the flu, and Green Lantern, who was to have taken the next shift, had an emergency to deal with on a small planet halfway around the galaxy. Or so Batman said, when he showed up--half and hour early--for Hal's shift.
"Promptness is important," Batman had said. "Especially when I'm here so infrequently." Clark's supersenses assured him that, improbably enough, Bruce was smiling at that statement, and there was an unmistakable note of levity in his voice.
It was, in fact, looking *increasingly* like the plot was Batman's.
Not that Clark had much attention to give the problem.
Monitor duty was absorbing enough when he *wasn't* receiving a blow-job.
