Summary
Guillermo and Nandor get drunk married and Nandor goes all in.
Nandor brings his big fist down on the desktop, causing a pencil holder to leap and scatter its contents across the surface. “I’ve had enough of this,” Nandor explodes finally, with a glare that encompasses both Guillermo and Laszlo. “One of you will tell me what’s going on. Now.”
Laszlo grins wickedly, not cowed in the least by Nandor’s fury. Guillermo wishes he could say the same. Slowly, Guillermo gets to his feet, ready to run for his life. “What’s going on is that you and Guillermo got married last night, old chap. And I should know because I performed the ceremony.”
Nandor’s mouth falls open in horror and his dark eyes flicker between Guillermo and Laszlo and the ring, each in turn and back again. And suddenly, everything that Guillermo’s been holding back comes spilling out in a torrent.
“Nandor, the hotel clerk said that we were on our honeymoon but I didn’t believe him, it was crazy so I thought — Nandor, wait.” And in the next instant, Nandor is a bat, squeaking and flying in a couple of panicked loops around the room before he darts through the open window.

Summary
“Peter’s hurt.”
Miguel wants to say it more elegantly—professionally—but he can only squeeze those two words out as rain pours over his head, down his face, and onto the soggy welcome mat he’s standing on. Mary Jane Watson-Parker of 616B has bright blue eyes that speak as clearly as words.
She’s standing until she’s not. She slumps against the door frame. She’s saying without vocalizing the words: ‘Spider-Man gets hurt. I know that. But if you’re here—then Peter is more hurt than usual. You, being on my doorstep, is a terrible omen, and I don’t know whether I should break down in tears or scream,’ but she’s not saying a word. She’s just staring at Miguel expectantly.

Summary
Peter Nureyev has spent most of the first eight years of his life on the streets of Brahma, hungry and afraid and remembering only his name. Juno Steel has spent most of the first ten years of his life in Oldtown, stuck in a too-small apartment with a brother who loves him and a mother who blames him for something he doesn't understand.
There are millions of lightyears between their two planets, too many for them to ever meet—at least not for another few decades. That is, until Peter Nureyev finds himself huddled in the back of a cargo shuttle headed for Hyperion City, Mars.

Bookmarker's Notes
I started reading this at around 4am after waking up from a bad dream. It's 8:30am now, and I find myself unable to stop smiling and cooing and just revelling in the happiness this story inspired in me.
I'm normally not a slow burn fan, but I am a hopeless sucker for epistolary fiction, and the depth of character that shines through in the emails these people share is extraordinary. I'll forever wish I could read this fic again like it was the first time, but the first time will certainly not be the last. I'll be reading this again very soon, and loving every word.

Summary
Kirishima brings up Bakugou one day as he and Kaminari are eating together in the campus cafeteria. Super casual, like yeah-I-saw-this-guy-on-TV-once, and not I’ve-watched-literally-every-single-interview-he’s-ever-even-been-in-the-background-of-and-wouldn’t-mind-having-his-babies.
“Oh, him,” Kaminari says. “Eh, he’s popular lately, I guess. Don’t see what all the hype's about.”
Kirishima feels lightheaded. “You—you don’t see the hype—” he splutters. “He’s incredible, dude.”
Kaminari just eyes him.

Summary
Akira's been stopping by Sojiro Sakura's wine shop for months; not because he has a particular interest in wine, but because a nice bottle or two always makes visits back home easier and Akira is all in favor of that. He relies on Sakura to provide a quality bottle; Sakura is, after all, the expert.
Until Akira makes a date with a charming young man who knows his way around a corkscrew; then Akira needs to become an expert. Fast.

Summary
Settling down with each other is naturally what comes after being dorm neighbors for years. It’s time to navigate through adulthood together, to live the daily grind of being pro-heroes, to learn more than they thought they’d like to know about each other, about themselves.
Or how Bakugou and Kirishima find a way to call each other “home” and struggle with the realization that once all their bills are on auto-pay, the only thing they still have to deal with is this pit full of feelings they have ignored for too long.
