    Summary

    Humans are largely an undocumented species in the greater universe. All who had ever tried to reach the outer cosmos had not survived; all but one, that is.

    X, also known as Xisuma, found himself on the other side of the universe with nothing but what he had on him when he was taken. He decided that this was a prime opportunity to screw around and find out. One by one, Xisuma assembled the crew of the Hermitcraft, a ragtag team of misfit aliens from all across the cosmos. He showed them kindness and compassion, different than anything they ever knew, and they became stronger together.

    This is how the crew of The Hermitcraft came to be.

    Summary

    Concern and confusion now weighed on the brow of the other man, who squinted as he surveyed the Blazeborn.

    “You’re not my Tango.”

    “Ngk- No. I’m not.” He spluttered in response, finally turning to face Zed.

    His best friend stood completely still, staring at his doppelgänger, his eyes were narrowed with anger and he was troubling his bottom lip. Tango silently willed Zed to look at him so he could explain- elaborate, but he didn’t.

    -OR-

    A Zedaph from another universe comes through the rift and mistakes Tango for his husband. Strangely enough, this causes problems.

    Summary

    “So, when do I get to meet him?” His voice was sharp, and his question slightly pointed.

    Zedaph’s head snapped around so quickly, that he could’ve sworn he heard it pop.

    “Meet who?”

    Tango laughed. It was, on the surface, a happy sound; however, there was something underlying it, a- coldness.

    “This guy you’ve been sneaking out to meet! I mean, c’mon, three months and you haven’t even introduced us? What kind of boyfriend are you?”

    “I mean, it’s not really like that-”

    “Oh, I see… So is it like a friends with benefits thing then or-”

    “Tango!” He cried, mortified, now fully facing him on the bed.

    “-No! It’s not that.”

    “Then what?" The man asked, "-What is it Zed? What is it that you’re so terrified of telling me?!”

    -OR-
    Zedaph is the vigilante 'Worm Man,' (brilliant name, I know).
    And in order to excuse his many absences, from the rest of Team ZITS, he pretends to have a fake boyfriend.

    It… goes about as well as you'd imagine it would.
