    Summary

    When it was just him turning feelings round in his head, that was one thing, wasn't it? But it's Edwin who looks at him out of the corner of his eye now, when he thinks Charles isn't looking. And it's Edwin who goes stiff when Charles touches him and then melts into it. And it's Edwin who gets all prissy and properly defensive when he's trying to cover up he's been staring.

    And if it was just Charles, well, he's been fighting down the way his chest goes sort of fluttery every time Edwin touches him for about three decades, hasn't he?

    But it's not just Charles anymore, is the thing.

    Summary

    Edwin sighed. “Just go read it to Charles, he’ll understand it.”

    She looked between them, suddenly having the feeling she was missing something.

    “It’s fine,” said Charles. “You don’t have to. I can do it, I just don't like to."

    Summary

    "Edwin's told me loads of stories about Hell," Charles says, decades into the future. And Edwin does, he just... can't quite bring himself to tell Charles everything.

    Or: 100 drabbles of Edwin, after Hell.

    Summary

    He swallowed and stepped into the scanner, his eyes on the floor. Peter didn’t want to see the triumph on Flash’s face, the hurt in Ned’s eyes, the anger in Mr Harrington’s when they realised he’d been lying.

    “Peter Parker, Level 9 Access (Redacted).”

    Uh–what? Had he heard that right?

    or: a field trip fic in which peter has never met tony stark, and therefore has never had an internship, but has unlimited access to stark industries anyways and is completely perplexed by it.

    Summary

    "Wow, dude, this thing is awesome. Does it generate its own electricity?" Peter flipped the hammer once in the air and caught it, watching in amazement as sparks danced over it. "Like, I know you're the god of thunder, but I didn't know your hammer had magic powers too! That is so cool. I want one. Like, I won't get it, obviously, 'cause I don't want to steal your thunder—no pun intended.”

    He grinned at his totally-intended pun, but Thor didn't react. Not even a twitch of the lips.

    “Okay, yeah, that was a dumb joke,” Peter admitted. “Sorry. Here's your hammer, Mr. Thor.” He held out the weapon to its rightful owner.

    Thor just stared.

     

    (Peter Parker meets Thor for the first time. It does not go as expected.)
