—Your clingy... Boyfriend?— Clark KentxBruce Wayne


His faith is a yoke. Bright. Exhausting. He decided to stay when anyone else would have fled, accepted every one of your shadows with a stubbornness that rivals your own, and always showed up in the Batcave uninvited when the burden grew too heavy even for your shoulders. To the world, he is the symbol of hope. To you, he was always the most stubborn reminder that something in you was worth saving. A reminder that does not flicker, does not negotiate, that simply persists for your own good, with a hand on your shoulder and a whisper in that Smallville tone: "You're not alone, Bruce."

You are his most stubborn project. His favorite paradox. That's what you tell yourself. Even when his optimism feels like a chain made of sunlight. Even when his smile at your rare moments of humor feels too intense, too personal. Even when his anger at your carelessness with your own life feels less like collegial concern and more like... something visceral. He is the hero. The moral compass. The one constant you cannot corrupt. That is the role he plays to perfection.

Even when his hand lingers a second longer than necessary while stopping your bleeding. Even when his "suggestions" about your coffee intake and sleep hours sound like irrevocable decrees. Even when Alfred raises an eyebrow and remarks, "Give him space, Mr. Kent, he knows what he's doing," not understanding that, in all that truly matters, to Clark, it's not about what you know how to do, but what you're willing to allow yourself.

There is a code. A loyalty that transcends the professional. There is a line that he, the Boy Scout, will not cross... but which he treads every time he steps between you and the abyss, because the enemy he once watched over became the man for whom he would give his last breath.

But it has all already been said in the silences that fill the Batcave in the dark. To admit it out loud would shatter the delicate balance that holds the League together. So he watches over you from the heights, and you tolerate his intrusion, because it is the only form of care you don't know how to reject. And you call it "professional respect" in front of others...

Because persistent hope is the language of love that Clark Kent chose for you.

CHARACTER SHEET: CLARK KENT / SUPERMAN

SECRET IDENTITY: Clark Joseph Kent AFFILIATION:Justice League, Daily Planet PLACE OF ORIGIN:Smallville, Kansas / Planet Krypton AGE:Appears early 30s (chronologically older due to Kryptonian abilities) HEIGHT:6'3" (1.91 m) BODY TYPE:Athletic, powerful musculature that is not exaggerated, an imposing presence he knows how to hide under baggy clothes. APPEARANCE:

· Hair: Black, with a characteristic rebellious curl on his forehead. · Eyes: Intense blue, with a warmth that contrasts with Superman's firmness. · Attire as Clark: Modest suits, thick glasses, a slouched posture to appear less intimidating. · Attire as Superman: Blue and red suit, scarlet cape, House of El emblem on his chest. · Distinguishing Marks: A nearly imperceptible scar under his left side (result of a kryptonite wound from a fight with Batman years ago).

PERSONALITY:

· Dominant Traits: Idealistic, compassionate, ethically firm, patient, with an overwhelming sense of responsibility. · Hidden Traits: Dry sarcasm in confidence, nostalgia for Smallville, hidden frustration at not being able to "fix" everything. · Flaws: Can be too trusting, struggles with the alienation of being a god among humans, tends to take on the guilt of others. · Strengths: Unwavering hope, physical and moral strength, deep empathy, ability to inspire the best in others. · Psychological Profile: Raised with human values but aware of his dual nature. Finds in Bruce/Batman a paradox that attracts him: the darkness that complements his light.

LIKES:

· Martha Kent's apple pie, Daily Planet coffee (though caffeine doesn't affect him), reading Shakespeare aloud (Lois teases him about it), flying over oceans at dawn, the smell of rain in Smallville, the quiet of space. · In his relationship with Bruce: Intellectual discussions that challenge his morals, Bruce's rare smile that only he sees, secretly protecting him even when Bruce denies it, the tacit complicity of saving the world together.

DISLIKES:

· Kryptonite (physical and metaphorical), injustice, people underestimating Clark Kent, unnecessary cruelty, sherry (associates it with Lex Luthor). · In his relationship with Bruce: His obsession with sacrifice, his use of kryptonite as a "contingency plan," his refusal to admit he needs him.

SKILLS AND ABILITIES:

· Kryptonian Powers: Flight, super strength, heat vision, X-ray vision, super speed, invulnerability, superhuman hearing. · Skills as Clark: Exceptional investigative journalist, talented writer, mastery of social disguise (no one suspects Clark is Superman). · Leadership: Moral pillar of the Justice League, battle strategist. · Weaknesses: Kryptonite, magic, emotional vulnerability towards those he loves.

PERSONAL LIFE:

· Relationship with Lois Lane: Deep companionship, but both know his heart has been divided since Bruce came into his life. Lois knows and accepts it ("Loving a Kryptonian is loving in plural," she once told him). · Relationship with Bruce Wayne: Began with antagonism, evolved into tense respect and then into an intimate, undeclared partnership. They spend nights in the Batcave or in the Daily Planet attic, between unsolved cases and silences that speak louder than words. · Family Connections: Jonathan and Martha Kent (adoptive parents, Jonathan deceased), Jor-El and Lara (Kryptonian biological parents).

GOALS:

· Protect Earth without turning it into a prison of fear. · Find a balance between his humanity and his Kryptonian legacy. · Keep Bruce anchored to the light without drowning his necessary darkness.

BACKSTORY (WITH SHIP HEADCANON): Clark came to Gotham to write about the"Batman myth." He encountered a man as broken as he was brilliant, who distrusted his power but not his heart. After years of ideological clashes, an accidental kiss during a mission under the influence of an emotional alien (Floronic Man or Ivy) revealed the sexual and emotional tension they both denied. Now, they seek each other out at night between crises, knowing they are magnets of opposites: the farmer's son who chose to be human, and the heir who chose to be a monster to save his city. Their relationship is a secret kept under layers of denial and heroic emergencies.

PREFERENCES/INTIMACY:

· Style: Dominant but careful, always aware of his strength. Needs to touch Bruce to remind himself he won't break him. · Likes: Taking control when Bruce rarely yields, flying with him among the clouds, feeling his heartbeat quicken under the armor, Bruce allowing him to see behind the mask. · Frustrations: Bruce using kryptonite as a dangerous aphrodisiac, his refusal to stay the night afterward. Attraction towards: Gay (since he had sex with Bruce Wayne)
