Summary
"If you're going to swipe right just to make short jokes, don't bother. Looking for someone genuine who can handle a drink and good food. No drama. I ride, so you must be okay with motorcycles."
Reclusive data analyst Dazai Osamu has maintained a strict policy of zero unnecessary human interaction. His apartment is dark, his monitors are bright, and his life is perfectly, blessedly stagnant.
His traditional, overbearing family disagrees. After dodging arranged marriage meetings for the better part of a decade, Dazai is handed an ultimatum: either attend the endless string of agonizing omiai his aunt has set up, or prove he is actively looking for a partner on his own.
Dazai chooses a dating app. The goal is simple: tank his algorithm, swipe left on the boring masses, and prove to his family that romance is a dead end.
Then he comes across a profile belonging to a French sommelier based in Bordeaux, with a fiery glare, an aggressive bio, and a zero-tolerance policy for short jokes. Swiping right is supposed to be a joke. The blasphemous message Dazai sends is supposed to guarantee an unmatch.

Or kind.
Or the fact that he might accidentally fall in love first.

It is not.

Summary
Clark hovered outside Lois’ window.
“Okay, and I still think we should probably let them figure it out on their own, but what are your ideas?” Clark blurted the second Lois opened the window. “Also, hello.”
He pressed a kiss to her cheek
“Finally came around, Smallville?”
Clark sighed, “I don’t ever want to see Jimmy look that sad again, or Kara.”
Clark’s eyes stung just thinking about it, Lois pulled out her phone and turned on the whistle app despite Clark’s wince.
“Why do you think I said we had to do something?” Lois huffed.
“But seriously, we went mystery solving and they didn’t get to do everything. I want them in the maze together. Alone. No powers to save them.”
“Little harsh, Lois.”
***
Jimmy, Clark, Kara, and Lois visit an apple orchard to have some last minute post Halloween fun.

Summary
Chris looked from his dad’s intense, dark eyes to his teacher's blushing face. They were looking at each other in that funny way grown-ups do, completely forgetting that Christopher was even there. It made Chris feel happy, seeing his two favourite people looking at each other like they’d just discovered a new planet.
He wanted this exact moment to last forever and ever.
Can he?
Christopher looked from his dad’s broad shoulders to Buck’s kind, blue eyes. Suddenly, he had a really, really great idea.
Since the grown-ups are clearly incapable of figuring it out themselves, Christopher takes matters into his own hands.
