    Summary

    “Papa,” Shane starts, raising his voice to be heard, “who is that?”

    His father finishes sipping the wine in his goblet and turns his head to face Shane, who is still looking at the gladiator, and raises a brow at him. “You don’t know? He’s the most beloved gladiator in Rome, perhaps the entire empire. Never lost a fight.”

    He can’t be that beloved if I’ve never heard of him, Shane thinks. He does not voice this, but hums in acknowledgement instead.

    “And what’s his name? This great gladiator?”

    The voice of the Emperor of Rome sounds tinged with something almost like respect when he answers.

    Xanthos.”

    Shane, son of the Roman Emperor, attends a gladiatorial games for the first time in his life. He finds something much more entertaining there than the combat.

    Summary

    It’s the eve of her wedding, and Elizabeth can’t stop looking at a dead leaf…

    What if Victor's aim had gone astray by a few inches? What if the Elizabeth who lay in the Creature's arms as he carried her out of the mansion was not dying but only injured?

    Far from polite Victorian society, alone with the Creature who refuses to let her die, Elizabeth must grapple with a forbidden desire that somehow feels like both sin and salvation.

    And something inside her, long kept in darkness, finally starts to bloom.

    (Or: Elizabeth meets the Creature again, and what we all want happens.)

    Summary

    There’s a moment -- as Bruce reluctantly grasps his offered hand -- when Superman is more.

    The light catches him just a little wrong, as they stand in the bloody gasps of Gotham’s sunset -- soft, unyielding skin and the glint of too many teeth in a perfect smile.

    He’s not like Bruce. But he is other, nonetheless.
