    Summary

    It is a well-known fact around town that Bob Ferguson doesn’t have a job, per se. And three months after the Battle of Baktan Cross, it becomes that time of the year when their resident retired revolutionary kook commits a new act of carefully planned, humiliating public disturbance to claim mental disability checks for his and Willa’s financial sake. In truth, it has become its own kind of annual, bring-your-kids, mostly family-friendly town custom where people bet what type of trick Bob “Rocket Man” Ferguson will come up with this time to appear crazy enough for another round of government money.

    Normally, it would be his daughter Willa who, for realism’ sake, would drive them both back home for rest after the pro forma booking and release from the police. However, her new role as part of the resistance demands her to help and transport some immigrants caught in a raid two counties over, and thus cannot pick her father up.

    Kindly, Sensei Sergio decides to lend a hand.

    Summary

    In the mid 90s, Edge & Christian Cage were just a young pair of brothers working to climb up the ladder of professional wrestling into stardom. They learn early it's not so easy. Wearing down from the toil and routine of their everyday lives, a chance encounter with a very odd stranger may make a world of difference for them - but will they be able to realize the hidden dangers before it pulls them in completely?

    Or, in other words - my personal take on the Brood's kayfabe origin story.

    Summary

    It hadn’t really surprised him to find out that Darby had some unconventional wires crossed. His wrestling had masochist written all over it. What was disturbing was how deep it went, not to mention the part of Ethan that enjoyed causing the pain, too.

    Summary

    “Go fuck yourself.” Those words carry weight for Adam now. They sting that little bit more. But this is lighthearted, playful, and Christian’s smiling at him so wide his eyes are crinkling in the corner into crow’s feet, and everything is so normal, normal, normal but nothing is the same.

    “I will ‘cause you won't fuck me yourself, coward.” It's risky. It's so Before of him and an hour ago he never would've thought he'd been making this kind of joke After. But he is. And it feels just that little bit more that Before might turn into the Now too.

    Or, Adam gets hurt during a match with Mox and Christian comes to check on him despite his better judgement.

    Summary

    Dante’s not mad. He just thinks it’s funny how Randal has the nerve to call into work sick when he’s really just a lazy tool who can’t be bothered to wake up before noon. Thirty-two and still playing hooky. Un-fucking-believable.
