    Summary

    The man hovering over him leaned back, releasing Grian completely. Cold night air rushed in to fill the void.

    “I guess it’s out in the open now,” the stranger hummed. “Shame. I wanted to avoid this.”

    With the additional glow occupying the space between them, Grian was finally able to catch features that were lost in the prior darkness. His curiosity outweighed all else, and he drank them in greedily. As soon as he saw who sat across from him, alarms blared in his mind.

    This man wasn’t a civilian, wasn’t even a hero.

    “Hello, Doctor,” the villain mused. “You were quite the help today.”

    - or -

    Grian is a vet. After a chance encounter in the dead of night, during which he accidentally saves a villain from the brink of death, he suddenly finds himself entangled in a world beyond anything he could've ever imagined.

    Summary

    "Man turns his back on his family, he ain't no friend of mine," Steve's dad sings in the kitchen, Bruce Springsteen blasting from the record player. He always listens to records as loud as he can, and even though it bursts Steve's eardrums and makes mom disappear upstairs, Steve savors these moments. His dad winks and shimmies his shoulders, and Steve scrubs dishes as he watches his dad come alive to the music, until eventually, the tap water clicks off and Steve joins his dad, bouncing on his toes and swinging until he's numb.

    Looking at this picture, you'd never know that ten years ago his dad almost killed him with a golf club.

    Summary

    Stephen Harrington was a quiet child. He never cried, calmly and easily carried any inconvenience and hardly bothered his mother. No one knew yet that the cause lay in his own body. Genetic disorder, mutation, malfunction in the body, error that cannot be cured or corrected.

    Steve knew from childhood that he was a freak, in this world he had to live by the rules, play his role with skill of professional actor. It doesn’t mean that it’s easy for him. It also doesn’t mean he knows what he’s doing.

    Summary

    “Lynette told me you always get nervous before a show,” Aether mentions casually as he steps around him. He traces the edges of Lyney’s mirror with the tips of his gloved fingers and Lyney somehow finds himself transfixed by the simple motion, his mouth dry. Aether looks back at him over his shoulder. "Are you nervous now?”

    Lyney’s chuckle is more of a breathless gasp. “Whatever made you think that? A genius magician such as myself does not get nervous—certainly not before an audience as delightful as you.” 

    Or: Lyney tries his hand at the art of romance but things don't go quite as planned
