Sandwiches
So! Clark is a Kid, and he is making a sandwich, but the Ketchup he puts on it accidentally makes a Summoning Sigil.
He turns around to find a Glowing Eldritch Being floating behind him.
He stares at the Eldritch Beast.
The Eldritch Beast stares at him.
Clark wordlessly picks up 2 more slices of bread, makes a other sandwich, and offers it to Being.
It takes the Sandwich, looks at him, and smirks before saying, "Not bad." And disappearing.
The next day, Clark's parents told him that they were going to have an extremely bountiful Harvest that year, and that they would be able to pay off all of their remaining Debts, lifting all of the stress that he had seen them begin to accumulate over the years.
Later that week during the Party to celebrate their success, Clark sneaks away with a plate of Food, draws that same circle on his favorite Tree, and leaves the Plate of food alongside a note saying "Thanks!"
And thus was the start of an incredible, but rather strange, friendship.
(BTW I left the specific Ghost blank to play around with, cause maybe it wasn't Danny)

Ghost Helpline part 3. Diana was shocked, hurt and elated all at once! “Your grandmother is Pandora?! I did not know that she even had a child! I am ecstatic to meet you Konstelacio. Oh my I call you cousin?” This was it! as far apart as the separation between Pandora and Themyscia may be Diana would take any family she could. The loneliness of childhood gnawed at her.
“Oh no! I’m not Pandoras Grandchild!” The girl crossed and uncrossed her arms into an X to show her dismissal, “She is a good mentor! And a wonderful family confidant! If anything she’s like my Nanny.”
Constantine began to sweat buckets.
Diana shouted, “Wait…is Pandora…” lips thinned.
“A ghost ? Yes”
- Tim stared at Konstelacio, she had begun to breathe deeply, averting her eyes from Wonder Woman, feet shuffling together. She was exhibiting shame. And Tim understood the feeling well, that you were too unworthy to even be held in comparison to someone else. Someone whose shoes you could never even dream of filling. “Do Demons have grandmas?” Uhhh speedsters.
“Yes”
“That’s so cool! Who’s yours?”
“I don’t know.”
Oh oh those golden eyes looked tired. As tired as Jason’s eyes had been after his first gala, Dick thought. They may have both been adopted but Jason was treated to so much contempt being from the streets, so much fake pity. /Oh poor kid doesn’t even know who his mom is./Dick knew Jason hated it all.
“I’m sorry!”
“It’s okay. It doesn’t matter.”
/It doesn’t matter Dick! Just drop it!/ the eldest robin frowned.
Damian tsked, “What about your parents? I would suppose even monsters need those? Also landing community service instead of some harsher punishment must mean you have some connection to authority in your ‘realm’ no?”
The little girl grinned, “Yes something like that.”
She has nearly everyone in the room duped, Constantine side eyed the Bats nearly. He knew that smile; a tad too wide eyes, a fraction to tight smile, the inexplicable about of understanding and kindness up until this point… this was the grin of a con artist.
- “I know quite a lot of important people! Why Pandora herself is my nanny! And my supervisor is my uncle.”
“Tsh- is that not a conflict of interest?”
“Doesn’t matter,” John wished he was allowed to smoke in space, “No more wasting time, now that we know you can help us what’s your price?”
“Hhhuuu what? Oh the price for the antidote will have to come later, after all you technically aren’t getting it from me. I’ll have to ask nanna and whoever else decides to help what the want. It’s only fair.”
“We see,” Batman’s low tone sounded. “And the dragon-“
Her hand stuck out shyly, “Tips are always welcomed tho…after all I am still providing a service.”
“We don’t …”
“It takes me a lot of energy and time to help you mortals so much. I’m so tired already.”
Batman’s mouth stilled, “We-“
A blur of red, “Oh are you hungry? Do you need anything? Let me get you a chair, snacks..”
“No no chair! Nothing is going threw that circle !” Constantine yelled, “Do you have any idea what could happen!”
“She’s a child!”
“She’s a demon!”
“Constantine is right.”
“Bats you can’t be serious, just look at her?”
“Flash we know your intentions are in the right place but we just can’t risk it! We also can’t risk not clearly defining what she considers a tip.” Zatanna signed how long have they been here, the girl looked harmless enough but something about her made her skin crawl.
“A favor would be nice! Especially from the red one!”
“See who knows what she could end up asking for.”
“Oh I see I’m sorry,” she looked down dejected, “ I do suppose no one carries favors for ladies around anymore hhhmmm and none of you have handkerchiefs? Awww”
“Why would you want something like that ?!?” Diana was horrified, her to be cousin was a child! No men, man, demon should be giving her favors to begin a courtship! “Flash!”
“Oh no no I wasn’t defending you to-“
“I know I know I just wanted one from you cuz you were nice to me.”
“That’s still doesn’t explain why you would ask for a favor as a tip?” Diana looked as the girl flushed in embarrassment. “I -I -I just want one to show my friends that’s all just to prove that I could get one that’s all! Uummmm cousin???” She hesitated regretful as soon as the word had come out.
“Oh I see are your friends giving you a hard time? Well I say the only one that would be appropriate to give you such a thing would be Robin… the youngest that is.”
The bats looked back at Damian oh dear lord sweat god don’t -
“Tch- here.”
Oh
Damian tossed a handkerchief towards the circle. “You just carry a handkerchief with you?” “Of course I do I’m not a heathen unlike you Drake.”
The toss was barely thrown in her direction when it disappeared entirely. “Where…”
“No worries I just put it in my inventory. Now then I’ll be on my way.”
“Wait!”
“Huh?” Big doe eyes blinked up at them all in confusion.
“The dragon! What about that thi- guy.” Hal scruffed out.
The girl brightened up, “Oh you don’t have to pay me anything for that! After all Aragon the one that broke his patrol. So I’m sure as soon as I send my report someone will come deal with it eventually.”
“Eventually?!” Hal’s hand hit the table, who was this kid?
“Well yes, tons of reports go in everyday! It is the INFINITE realms after all! Who knows when they’ll get to yours.” She shrugged as if it was all just a matter of convenience as if that very dragon haven’t terrorized and destroyed lives throwing its tantrum.
Superman chewed his lip, as this meeting contributed to drag on he had no doubt Aragon would continue to destroy everything in its path. “Wait what about your connection, surely you know someone that can help ? What about your supervisor uncle ?” Clark needed this to stop, he couldn’t even land a punch on this guy. Nothing worked and he was already weak to magic. This has to stop.
“Well I suppose I can but it’ll cost you.”
“Wait just a minute!”
“Do we even have anything you want?” Clark raked his mind over ideas in his head, for a tip all she had wanted was a handkerchief an old school way of showing off to her friends like any normal girl. “We don’t have much but I’m sure we could think of something???”
“It’s okay Mr. Superman.” Konstelacio lite up “I’ll just take something you mortals don’t really think about hhhmmm something small.”
Hal sighed as he leaned back, “You sure we can’t just give her a dog?”
“Ugh fuck this mate I need a light,” forget not being allowed to smoke up here all these idiot we’re getting on John’s last nerve, “Ugh drat! I could have sworn I had my lighter in my pocket.”
“Oh you mortals losing things in your own pocket. Oh that’s what I want in return!”
“A lighter? Smoking is -“
“I want your pockets.”
“What do you mean?”
The devil grinned, “Your pockets, empty them.”

Clark grows up on Amity
So! When Clark's shup landed on the Kent Farm, it unfortunately started a bit of a Fire. It was pretty bad, and by the time it was put out most of their Crops had been burned up.
Using their Savings, the money from the remaining Crops, and some goodwill from their neighbors, the Kent's managed to get enough money together to move to a new Town to start over. It also helped that in a new town nobody would question them suddenly having a Baby despite Martha not being Pregnant.
They Move to a small farm on the Edge of Amity Park.
Clark Kent grows up in Amity Park, goes to Casper High, and befriends Danny, Sam, and Tucker as his childhood friends.
When his powers come in, they are the first ones to know. When Danny has his Accident, Clark is there to help him control his new abilities. When Clark has to move away for his new Job in Metropolis, they are all there to wish him good luck and throw him a Going Away Party.
As Superman, Clark is more open to joining a Team since he used to be on Team Phantom.
When Justice League Dark is formed, Superman is a Suprise Member, since he actually had a lot of experience with the Supernatural.
When Kon is born, he turns to his best friends for help and advice on his to deal with the situation. Danny had Ellie in very similar circumstances, so he is more open to the idea of adopting Kon since he has personal experience with Clones made by Madmen.

My Thoughts
Another anthology done, and more stories to enjoy!
After reading the Contemporary counterpart, I was really excited for the H2H Paranormal anthology, and I wasn’t disappointed. I definitely recognized more authors here, which says a lot about my reading tastes of late. But I was also introduced to a couple new authors that I enjoyed!
Like all anthologies there were hits and misses. But overall, I enjoyed these stories quite a bit! Especially the idea of Cupid working overtime for the corporate dating industry. There was just something borderline pleasantly evil about that.
