    Summary

    “peter benjamin parker,”  he says, holding up a newspaper clipping of a grainy writer’s portrait on the back of an article. “been trying to nab him for weeks. but i’m not going to mess with the daylight hours, and he’s never in at night. what kind of greaseball is out every night?”

    “must be a real fink,” peter says, and thinks about how lucky he is that this deadpool character is a total idiot.

    __

    peter has found himself in an unfortunate spotlight after a damning front-page article leads new york's biggest crime boss to put a hit out on his head. the assassin hunting him, deadpool, seems an easy enough guy to handle . . . until peter finds out about his healing factor. peter needs to kill wade before wade has a chance to kill him, but how do you gun down a man who can't die?

    Summary

    kurt put his book aside, coming to sit at the counter. his debating voice lost some conviction in its nasally hum. “in bavaria, we crush echinacea into our buttermilchsuppe and we get up on the ropes anyway.”
    ”gesundheit. here.” he slid the little cup across the counter. the liquid was ominously purple. kurt wrinkled his nose and pushed it towards logan.
    “when i broke my wrist, my mother put bay leaves on it and i walked it off,” said kurt.
    “your mom’s also a witch,” said logan. he pushed it back. “drink up.”

    Summary

    the cavernous longing in my chest only grows. i press my hands to the glass, calling out to him, his name so natural on my tongue; he does not stir. i see the rise and fall of his chest as he breathes and, in a moment of desperation, i strike the glass with my palm.
    the image does not shatter. neither does the mirror. it remains impenetrable to my strength, my will, my prayers, and my voice. i repeat his name until i don’t know how to say anything else. he does not stir. he presses himself into the ground and the flowers crowd in on him as if they wish to tug him down into the earth.

    Summary

    “let’s do something fun.”
    “give me my book back.”
    “c’mon, moons, please?”
    and he’s making that stupid pouty face. that puppy-eyed, mouth-drooping, eyebrows-drawn face. he’s also less than a foot away from remus with his favourite book in tow, and so remus can’t give his expression all the credit.
