Summary
“The cargo is the kid?” Pandora is asking, incredulous.
“I’m not cargo,” Harry spits out back at her, defensive, chin held up high. Regulus watches as his small hands grab hold of a knife as long as his forearm, pointing it downward but still present, like if Regulus and Pandora give him a reason he’d slaughter them. Jesus, the kid is eleven.
“He’s the cargo, yeah.” James says, ignoring Harry’s spluttering protests.
OR
Harry Potter is immune, and James Potter cashes in old debts to get him across country.

Summary
“Wow,” Will breathes out, just on this edge of teasing. “You sound very confident about this.”
“Well,” Mike shrugs, swallowing hard in a desperate attempt to soothe his very, very dry mouth, “I don’t know why someone wouldn’t be interested in you.”
“Oh?” Will says, and it’s definitely teasing now, enough for Mike to feel himself turning warm, all down his neck and to the tips of his own – sadly unpatterned – socks. “Someone?”
“Yeah.” Mike nods. Oh, god. This is fine. “In a very arbitrary sense of the word. Just– people. Someone.”
Mike is approximately ninety-eight percent sure that his feelings are requited. That last two percent, however, has really been throwing him for a loop.

Bookmarker's Notes
He froze over in New York. He knows he did. And this, Sydney in his lap, hand on his face. This feels dangerously close to thawing out.
It’s like there’s some feeling deep in his chest, that was long ago beaten badly enough to crawl out the light completely, but is now, somehow, emboldened, and emerging from its hiding place.
———
“When I was twenty, and you used to come into that stupid diner, I burned so much food staring at you,” he says. “You, uh, you wore your hair natural back then, in those curls, I… I almost got fired, Syd. I was so fucking mesmerized. I could stare at you forever.”
“I was staring right back at you,” she says, with a small smile. “You knew that, didn’t you?”
“I thought you were annoyed the food was taking so long,” he says.

Summary
On a perfectly average Tuesday night – as far as any night can be called perfectly average anymore nowadays – the sky goes pitch black above Manhattan, a violent storm rattles the roofs, vivid blue and purple lightning bolts illuminate the clouds.
Once it is over, as suddenly as it began, news trickles in of difficult-to-explain phenomena occurring worldwide: The statue of liberty has changed color to a bright pink, an exact replica of the great wall of China has appeared across the Sahara desert, it rains feathers in Copenhagen for several hours, every single stapler on Sumba Island turns into a coat hanger, and Tony Stark wakes up from an impossible-to-wake-up-from coma.Bookmarked by probably_ren

Tony nods. “Meet Morgan’s pet sheep.”
“Goat!” Morgan says. She clambers over Pepper and presses her nose to the window, leaving a tiny foggy circle on the glass.
“It’s a llama,” Pepper corrects.
“That,” Peter says, “is an alpaca.”

Bookmarker's Notes
Eddie gives that crooked, pretty grin. “See, I know this may come as a shock to you, kids, and it’s a lot to process, but your mom and I — we’re gonna give things another shot, for the sake of the family.”
“This is insane,” Lucas mumbles, and then looks up wide-eyed. “I mean– like, not insane in a– in a bad way, or anything, like, good insane? Or… neutral insane…”
“Don’t hurt yourself,” Max says.
Steve catches up. “Wait, why am I the mom?”
“You’re definitely the mom.”
“Isn’t that hetero– heteronominal? Heteronormal? Hetero–”
“Heteronormative,” Eddie finishes, rolling his eyes. “Don’t you hurt yourself either.”

Summary
“It’s Red Robin,” Tim corrected Batman, sounding a bit agitated. “But yes. I created several plans that focus around one of us getting sent to yet another dimension.” He turned and sent Kon a look.
“Hey,” Kon complained. “You were there too. And it was a different planet, not dimension.”
“You were the worst.” Tim said.
“Okay, like you were all sunshine and rainbows when you were running around in red, yellow, and green.” Kon rolled his eyes.
Or: Kon and Tim are sent to a different dimension, and yeah they kiss a bit and cause a little trouble, but they're engaged, who cares? Everyone. Everyone cares.
