    Summary

    “How long.” It was supposed to be a question but his tone of voice wasn’t quite right. The words were breathy, and they sounded more like a heavy sigh than a question.

    She reached out a hand and rubbed at the top of Kakyoin’s head. It was weird but comforting.

    “You’ve been in a coma for about twelve years, dear.”

    Kakyoin’s mind felt blank. He wasn’t sure what he was thinking.

    “Oh.”

    ~

    Alternatively, after about twelve years, Kakyoin finally awakes from a coma. Unfortunately for him, his old friends believe him to be dead, and they're rather difficult to find.

    Summary

    Before anyone reports this post, I got this AMA authorised by posting proof to a mod, so there.

    Hi, Reddit! I’m no-one special, but about 6 months ago, I moved into a flat above a cafe next door to a bookshop, and my life has never been the same since, because the man who runs the bookshop is some sort of ageless (mostly) benevolent eldritch being. By all accounts, he hasn’t aged a day since at least 1944, sometimes he seems to have just too many eyes, and I once saw him turn water into wine (a nice rosé). His coworker / best friend / boyfriend / shadow entity is also definitely some kind of cryptid, but despite trying harder to be a bastard, he’s somehow less successful at it.

    So, if you have any questions about what it’s like to live next door to an eternal bastard man, AMA!

    Or, a cryptid bastard man haunts Reddit, trying to find out how to ask out his crush of the past 6,000 years and getting downvoted to literal oblivion. Just normal stuff on the world wide web.

    Summary

    It is with an exasperated sigh that I introduce you to an official thread for this guy. We've discussed it and we've decided that this is the only way we can stop you guys from derailing threads to complain about this guy. By mod decree, all Mr Fell complaining, griping, bitching, grousing, and miscellaneous butthurt now belongs in THIS THREAD AND THIS THREAD ONLY.

    The forumgoers of The Codex, a forum for rare book hunters, come to some very interesting conclusions about the personal life of one Mr Fell of Soho. (Inspired by a tumblr post.)

    Summary

    Overwatch can be forgiven for keeping Hanzo at arm's length despite the endorsement of his intended murder victim. Six months of provisional membership, spent in the field, is a reasonable compromise.

    But not everyone is on board with giving Hanzo a chance.

    Cassidy, least of all.

    Summary

    Angela never asked to be a superhero. It was a duty handed down to her by those other, greater superheroes before her. But the heroes’ glorious days are over and when history starts to repeat itself, it threatens to suffocate the concept of superheroes once and for all.

    The only ones who can stop it are Valkyrie and Sparrow.
