    “I know you’re there, Sonic.”

    Sonic steps beyond the tree line, his body tense, not quite trusting his own ears.

    “Shadow? Is that actually you?”

    Summary

    "Well, I'm calling because," the voice on the other end sounded high-strung as all get out. "You see, we were working on a-a project together, and it, well, it hasn't turned out exactly as expected-" his voice cracked.
    Stan swore he could feel the blood drain from his face as he realized what kind of phone call this was.

    Stan gets a call in the middle of the night from a Dr. McGucket, telling him his brother is asking for him. So of course, he goes.

    Summary

    The last shot is accompanied by the trail of a cry, shrill, angry, fearful. Arthur lowers his revolver. Blinks. Tongues at a bloody tooth from getting hit while strangling an O’Driscoll, spits red mucus onto one of the bodies on the floor.

    The crying starts up again, as if sensing Arthur’s confusion. For a moment, Arthur thinks it must be some poor lady these savages have taken alongside the house, but quickly knows it to be untrue. It’s too—wet, pointless in a way only the young can manage, knowing that something is wrong but not knowing what. Just a shout, not the bellowing anguish of someone who knows what god-awful situation they have been put in.

    “Christ,” he says, once, twice. “Christ.”

    or

    Arthur accidentally adopts a baby, and, despite his best judgement, ends up starting to raise him. He falls in love with Charles along the way.

    “Fuck off, Nicky.”
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    “Hasn’t anyone ever told you spider-napping is illegal?”
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    “You can’t hold me here, I know my spider-rights.”
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    “God, you guys are so old. What are you? Like 27?”
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    “Scale of 1 to 10, how upset would you be if I told you I banged your mom?”
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    Or, I got my grubby little hands on the spider-man time line and fucked around a little bit. Not much (everything) changes.
