    Summary

    He looks up at her and swallows before repeating, “You don’t have to.”

    Except when Rhodey had said it he’d meant You don’t have to go and Tony is saying You don’t have to stay and doesn’t that just say everything about both of them?

    Summary

    A man went down to the crossroads looking for forgiveness, God, and the blues—not in that particular order—and found the Devil instead. So the Devil tuned his guitar and made him the best bluesman in the world, and all it cost was his soul, which was taking up too much room inside him anyway.

    (Other times, the man at the crossroads isn't looking for God at all.)

    Summary

    The first time John lays eggs he is in the process of turning into a bug and to be frank the whole experience isn’t great for him.

    By the sixth time he lays eggs things still aren’t great but at least he figures he’s got a handle on the situation. Which of course means it’s time for the Pegasus galaxy to throw a very wraith-shaped curveball his way.

    Summary

    Ghosts won't stop giving Xie Lian flowers, Hua Cheng won't stop teasing, and Xie Lian is out here doing his best, man.

    Xie Lian is momentarily frozen. Outside of heaven, no one calls him Highness except in jest, and there was a time people threw flowers at his feet as if to make a carpet for him to walk upon, but those years are long past. “Thank you. This is a—a princely gift.”

    The spirit’s black-pit eyes go wide and then he grins, revealing long, wicked teeth the color of tarnished silver. “Yes! Yes, I knew it was meant for his Highness.” The spirit nods to Hua Cheng, too, whose grin has widened to something almost obscene.

    “Truly,” Hua Cheng agrees.
