Summary
“Tao?”
Tao stares at her. He feels like he’s still running. Like his limbs are spinning. Like his chest is heaving. Like he’s still in free-fall. How long, he thinks, have I been able to predict her next move? Elle. Elle. How long has Elle Argent been my closest friend?
Elle. Elle. Elle. When did he change so quickly? When did he fall in love?

Summary
“Do you,” says Dustin, conversationally, “ever feel lonely?”
Steve’s fork hesitates, mid-twirl above his spaghetti. His face falls into the expression Dustin’s come to know as thinking hard, which is rare for Steve. His eyebrows twist together, and underneath his eyes do a little flick to the ceiling above, as if the curling water stain is suddenly going to change shape and spell out the answer to Dustin’s question. He opens his mouth, closes it, and then opens it again.
Dustin stares. “Blink twice if I broke you.”

Summary
He has hands built to cradle the barrel of a bazooka. Fingers trained to hurt, to flip the safety off and reload the bullets. Wolfgang has ears tuned to hear the ting of a metal bullet casing kissing the asphalt as it falls. He has the scars to prove his lack of thinking, and a near-constant adrenaline rush to testify with it. Wolfgang is violent. He is not a good person, and he is not a thinking one.
But, over the last couple of months, Wolfgang has been thinking. Thinks about his humanity, or lack thereof. Thinking about what it means, in the end, to be human.
Human. That was never a label before, was it?

Summary
“I kind of liked it,” says Diego, quietly, hours or days later. He says it so quiet Lila almost misses it. A mere breath on the air. The beat of a butterfly wing. On her side of the bed, she sits up, ramrod straight. Diego’s – their – blankets wrap around her middle, pooling, tightening. She wriggles, and they fall away.
(“What do we do now?”
“Live our lives.”)
Lila reaches out a hand, and wraps her fingers around his wrist. “What,” she whispers, quiet enough to match his volume, gentle enough not to spook him, “are you talking about?”
Diego hums. “Being a—a f—father,” he mutters, after a long moment. “Being a father, to Stan.”

Summary
Peter Parker webs away from Liberty, from Doctor Strange and his bewildered friends, from his life, shaking too hard to hold the synthetic stuff, and crumples in some sort of alley.
He doesn’t get back up. There’s no reason to, but now, now, what has he got? Absolutely fucking nothing. That’s the answer. He hasn’t got May. He hasn’t got MJ. He hasn’t got Ned. He hasn’t got Peter or Peter, and he sure as hell hasn’t got the world. No Avengers. No anything.
Everyone’s gone. Everyone’s gone—for real this time. There’s no time travel, there’s no magic infinity stones. There’s no coming back. For the first time ever, Peter Parker is totally and utterly alone.
or, peter parker deals with the fall out from the spell — at first, alone, and later, with company.

Summary
Korra is four, and she can cradle a spark in her hands as well as she can hold water. Her mother is in the kitchen and her father at the table. When she comes rushing in, a flame in one hand and a steady stream of water in the other, her father smiles.
Her mother drops the pan she’s holding. It clatters to the floor and the half-seared trout is ruined, dirtied, but Korra isn’t focused on her lack of dinner or her mother’s reaction. Her father is smiling.
For once, her father is smiling.
For once, her father is smiling, and Korra will do anything to keep it.
or, korra needs a hug.
