Caught a little star ⭐️

From @unbreakabledawn’s most wonderful fic Catching Stars (gen audiences, 2k):

Carefully, Bruce brings his left hand up to his right shoulder where Clark has slumped over and fallen asleep. With great care, he nudges Clark’s small body into the palm of his calloused hand, slowly lifting him away from his shoulder and to the front of his face where Bruce can watch the sleeping figure in his hand.

Clark’s tiny form curls in on itself, settling into a deeper sleep in the cradle of Bruce’s hand. His little hands tug the cape closer, swaddling himself as he turns his face into the meat of Bruce’s palm. Bruce feels the barest whisper of a breath gusting against his skin. He’s small enough that Bruce could completely enclose him in his hands if he wanted to, and he finds himself gripped by the urge to cup him close to his chest and protect this tiny creature. Which is ridiculous; Clark is perfectly capable of protecting himself, even as small as he is.

Compiled some basic information I know about drawing fat characters for beginners since I've been seeing more talk about absence of really basic traits in a lot of art lately.

Morpho Fat and Skin Folds on Archive.org (for free!)

superbat bdsm / guilt relief agenda

He closed his eyes.

Bruce had stopped barely one full step past the doorway, but he was moving now, each step bringing him closer to Clark. With no outside sound to filter through, and with his eyes tightly closed, Clark's whole world finally narrowed entirely to Bruce. His surefooted steps. His steady breathing. The beautiful thrum of his heartsong, perfectly unique to him, perfectly composed and in control. The sound of ruffling fabric as he unbuttoned the cuffs of his sleeves and rolled them up.

The feel of his callous-rough fingertips, gently reaching out to trace a path along Clark’s jawline.

Clark shuddered at the touch, at the trail of fire left behind where Bruce’s fingers had slid across his skin. He wanted to lean into it desperately. He didn't.

“I’m sorry,” he whispered instead. His chest ached.

Bruce pressed his palm flat against Clark’s cheek. “I know,” he said. And then, “Red lights on.”

Or: After a difficult case on another planet, Clark deals with his guilt by not sleeping or taking care of himself or talking to his partner. When it all comes crashing down, Bruce finally intervenes.
