    Summary

    Time changes people, and Gamma Jack is no exception. Once a powerful hero, he is now a chronically tired nuclear pharmacist that enjoys his quiet, routine life in suburbia. His peace is shattered when his former life comes calling, forcing his old friends and former supers to launch multiple efforts to convince him to rejoin their ranks. Among them is a former comrade, Simon, who has harbored secret feelings for Jack. The forced reunion presents Simon with the unexpected chance to become a constant presence in Jack’s life.

    OR

    Jack is oblivious and in denial, but everyone around him and Simon already know. Everyone.

    Summary

    Gazerbeam narrowly escapes death at the hands of the Omnidroid, but gets gravely wounded. Still, he manages to survive in the cave on his own until help arrives.

    He just didn't expect it to be in the form of Gamma Jack, who has gone undercover in Syndrome's mercenary ranks to avoid a similar fate to the other supers brought to the island.

    Both heroes manage to escape Syndrome’s genocide, and finally get around to admitting a few things to each other!

    Things seem like it’ll be a happy ending. Until the Deavors show up with a proposal to make superheroes legal again.

     

    a.k.a. Right when Simon and Jack were starting to actually have a relationship, Gazerbeam is asked to be the Deavors’ superhero representative.

    Summary

    (In which the NSA forces Simon to marry Jack in order to keep an eye on him.)

    After the supers ban was made official, the NSA had their work cut out for them, engineering new, normal lives for those once believed to be gods. Day after day, supers were reduced to a single file, liabilities to be “dealt with.”

    The nightmare was almost over, with only one man left to deal with—Jackson Hart, better known as Gamma Jack.

    No female supers fit the mold well enough to be assigned to play house with Jack, and even if they could withstand his toxic abilities (and personality), it would just be plain cruel to subject any woman to a life married to the guy.

    Fortunately, there was one person who fit the profile the NSA was looking for: immune to the light spectrum, and by proxy, Jack. Strong enough to hold their own. The one person who wasn’t afraid of him. Unfortunately for Jack, that person happened to be a man.

    Gazerbeam, AKA Simon Paladino
