Summary
“Simon?”
Simon slides a book into place before turning around. The man in front of him is lean, worn thin, with bags like dusky thumbprints beneath his eyes. He’s swallowed by the massive black hoodie he’s wearing, his hands wedged deep into his pockets and his shoulders hunched.
For reasons he cannot begin to understand, Simon wants to crush this man into a tiny ball and then shove him into the mouth that gapes, screaming, around his own starved heart.
He doesn’t do that, obviously. He’s on the clock.
Or: Ghost loses his memories and falls in love with his husband, again.

Summary
Most people run away when they see a man that shoots lasers from his eyes try to rob a bank. They rather not be cut up like half the place is.
But Soap isn't most people. He's a journalist, and his job is to document exactly what's wrong with this city, even if it endangers him.
Well… It's not his job yet. As it stands right now, his actual job involves editing the lifestyle section of a local newspaper firm, "Manchester Mail", which… Does not entail running straight into an ongoing crime scene, but he digresses.
------
Soap's dream is to become an investigative journalist, uncover the injustice that lurks in the streets of Manchester. He gets himself into dangerous situations, trying to get a glimpse of the truth, when he stumbles upon Ghost, the city's mysterious shadow-wielding super.
Every day, he comes to a local café called "Roast & Toast", chatting with its only worker, Simon, who, for his part, is furious to find the reporter that has been pestering him while he's working as Ghost, reach his day job by sheer luck.- Language:

Summary
To Bright’s credit, he makes it halfway to the green before he loses it.
He’s following Delia across the parking lot when he sees the stage and sees the reenactors and he remembers that this is where it all went to shit last time.
(And maybe he should’ve remembered earlier, but in his own defense, he’s been trying to think about Colin as little as he can. Because it hurts like hell when he does, knocks the breath out of his lungs and leaves him gasping for air).
