    Summary

    “Honey,” Wade calls over his shoulder without taking his eyes off their visitor. “Why is there a teenage mutant in our breakfast nook? Not that I’m not happy to see you,” he says to Negasonic, who raises her eyebrows owlishly.
    Vanessa comes out of the bedroom and hooks her chin over Wade’s shoulder.
    “Do you think she heard me getting my spanking?” he whispers. “Because that was *private* noise.”
    “I don’t know,” Vanessa says. “But she looks like she needs some coffee and pancakes, don’t you think?”
    Negasonic grins. It’s scary as fuck.

    "PLEASE DEDUCT POUNDS OF SCROTAL TISSUE FOR ME, Wade texts. He thinks about it, then adds several cherry and kiss emojis."

    Summary

    Just a sliver of Buck’s smile. Small, a twitch of a thing. Like no one’s meant to see it.

    It has the curious effect of not making John feel any less insane. “Hey,” he says. “Lemme get your back.”

    Gale stops scraping gunk out from under his fingernails and stares at him outright. Bucky wonders if he asked what he asked just to get this reaction.

    John and Gale wash up post-fight.

    “I’ve seen plenty of you,” Buck says again, his voice quieter. He looks Bucky steady in the eye. “Seen a whole hell of a lot.”

    “Well,” Bucky says. A poleaxed, half-blinded feeling surges up in his skull. “Well, then.”

    “What do you need?” Gale asks, each word lined up so carefully. “To go on another day, what do you need?”

    Summary

    “You’re a good story teller, you know.”

    Buck can feel the heat of a blush burning against his skin. He shrugs, shoulders brushing his ears. Their bodies bracketed the center of the bed in an identical curvature, breaths perfectly out of sync. Buck inhaling John’s exhale, sighs out oxygen for him.

    “So’d those kids invite you back for the next game?”

    Buck smiles, and wonders again at the steadfast belief John held that Buck was just as likable and good as himself. “Nah.”

    “I would have.” John says softly, “I’d teach you how to catch that baseball Buck.”

    Summary

    “So you’re an adrenaline junkie but instead of extreme sports you make people call you master.”

    “Sir, actually.”

    John blinks, “What?”

    Gale’s lips curve at the corners slightly in that strange subdued smile of his. Those blue eyes lock on John’s, staring right into the back of his skull.

    “I have my clients call me Sir, not Master.”

    “Why do you think you deserve that?”

    John’s eyes fly open, “What?” It’s more a gasp than any coherent word as white-hot suspense turns to shock.

    “Why do you think you deserve to be hit John?” Again with the gentle voice, again with that quiet tone of almost innocent confusion, as if Gale could never fathom why someone might want to hurt John.

    “You must've done something to me. Knocked a—a screw loose.”

    “You've always had a few screws loose, Buck. You were just better at hiding ‘em.”

    That must be true, if he was doing this.
