SV: Reconcilable Differences, Clark/Lex
Okay. Am I allowed to say, I kind of have a crazy love for this story? Because I do.
♥ to cesperanza and terrio and giddygeek, and also especially to ficbyzee and basingstoke, who helped me with all the insane DC canon and also inflicted many Very Special screenshots on me, including this extremely important one.
Notes: I've borrowed a bunch of DC comics characters for this story; the one that I feel needs some real explanation is Kon, aka Superboy, who is the test-tube baby of Superman and Lex Luthor. (No, I am seriously not making this up. I would have, but the writers at DC generously smoke crack so we fans don't have to.) Tim Drake is the current Robin.
I'm introducing these characters into the Smallville universe, not really sticking to the DC canon, so fair warning that I have been mucking about with the backstory to suit myself. Hopefully it is all clear from context!

Clark/Lex, explicit, futurefic.
Summary: Luthor Family Values.
Kon had to blink a few times to clear his gummy eyes. Tim was sitting in a chair across from him, in civvies, jeans and a t-shirt, hair a mess. His elbows were braced against his knees and his forehead was against his clenched hands. There was a white bandage around his left hand, slowly staining red over the third knuckle.
"Y're leaking, man," Kon said. It came out weird and slurred; his tongue wouldn't work right. He felt strange, heavy, and his head wouldn't come up off the pillow.
