    Summary

    There should have been nothing remarkable about two people in a busy cafeteria, but Becket takes in the familiar sight of curly hair, brown eyes, and a t-shirt with a science pun on it talking animatedly alongside Actual Anthony Edward Stark and promptly drops his lunch.

    He gapes for a solid second, seeing but not believing. It definitely doesn’t look like Mr. Stark is forcing the kid to leave, or firing him, or escorting him to security given the relaxed smiles on both of their faces. If anything, Becket thinks Mr. Stark looks rather proud.

    “So, uh, Mr. Stark definitely knows Roomba-Kid,” Becket says and discreetly tilts his head in the direction of the pair.

    “Oh my god,” Jess says. She almost sounds gleeful. “Oh my god, he’s not just some random kid. He’s Mr. Stark’s kid.”

    or: the interns at Stark Industries have some questions about Peter Parker. The answers aren’t quite what they expect.

    Summary

    So Rozanov had a fetish. It didn't matter. Montreal didn't play Boston again for a month, and by then Shane would have gone through a dozen new bruises blooming and fading away. They played hockey; it was a fact of life. The next time they met Rozanov would have forgotten about it.

    Shane didn't, though.

    Summary

    “I’m here, you’re alright,” a new, heavily accented voice came from somewhere behind him. It sounded really far away, but suddenly strong, steady hands were on his back. “I need to cut the seatbelt to get you out.”
    Shane wanted to talk, wanted to nod and say that he understood, but he felt like a sack of bones, unable to get his voice to work, or his body to co-operate. Shane was distantly aware of being cut loose, of being caught as he sagged forward. He gasped at the pain when his shoulder landed against something soft.

    There was a sharp, short inhale.

    “Shane?”

    OR

    Five years after one unforgettable night with a stranger in a Boston frat house, Shane Hollander has built the life he always thought he wanted: professional hockey, a successful career and the perfect girlfriend. But when Rose breaks up with him, Shane is forced to confront the uncomfortable truth that something has never quite felt right, and his thoughts turn to the one person he’s never quite been able to forget. And then, on the worst night of his life, the past comes crashing back into him.

    Summary

    "Could I get a beer?" Shane asks the bartender, mostly as a way of getting Ilya's attention. He doesn't know how Ilya will react to seeing him.

    The last time he saw Shane was at his house in November, when Shane unceremoniously abandoned him after sex. Two weeks later, a paparazzo followed Ilya home from a bar and snapped photographs of Ilya and a red-headed man making out his front entryway—through the fucking windows. The article ran on the TMZ website in the morning, and that night, Shane met Rose Landry.

    He ran straight from the horrifying idea of being outed into the arms of a woman who had no idea what she was getting herself into.

    Or: Shane and Ilya reunite at the 2017 All-Star Weekend after Ilya is outed to the world as bisexual in November. Featuring the awful sensation of getting sand in your clothes, garish Hawaiian shirts, and blowjobs—not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    Spider-Man is a relatively new, controversial vigilante, and Johnny has a crush the size of the Empire Building. The Four - operating under the assumption that Spidey is an adult - do not approve.

     

    “I just happen to think Spider-Man's cool,” Johnny says, matter-of-factly. “A hero can think another hero is cool without making it weird. I admire his aloofness. And his badass-ness.”

    “His aloofness,” Ben repeats, chuckling into his mug of beer. It’s roughly the size of Johnny’s head. “Yeah, sure, I bet that’s all your admire, right?”
