Summary
“It’s a special occasion, Peril. It’s not every day your partner invokes the powers of darkness to summon you.”
Napoleon inclines his head towards the candles, the red smears of blood against stone, and the leather-bound text. The pages curl in the breeze, sifting as though guided by an invisible hand to expose a crudely drawn devil with curved rams horns.
“It’s not a great likeness, is it? I’d prefer a photograph. Much more flattering.”
(Or: literally so much Napollya pining with a Faustian twist.)

Summary
Having a soulmate was kind of a one in a million, fated, entwined by the heavens type of schtick. And Steve was pretty sure that sort of thing didn’t happen to mediocre, former bullies from Hawkins, Indiana.
The weird, crescent moon splodge on his lower back was definitely just a deformed cluster of freckles, right?

Summary
Illya’s hands were beginning to shake—a cautionary sign that magic was beginning to spurt through his veins, hot and thick. He felt dizzy and disoriented. His throat burned too, like it had been scorched with a branding iron, although that could simply be the Firewhisky taking effect.
Napoleon was leaving. He was going to be in danger. And there was nothing Illya could do to stop it.

Summary
‘Has anyone ever told you that you are remarkably misanthropic for a superhero?’ Napoleon asked curiously.
‘Yes,’ Red Peril replied curtly.
Napoleon tried and failed to conceal his smile.

Summary
Napoleon Solo did not believe in soul mates.
Or rather he did, but he had no interest in finding his own nor did he believe he was ever likely to do so.
He was determined to be his own person despite the blood red Cyrillic that curled down his rib cage like a cattle brand.
Napoleon had no interest in seeking out Illya Kuryakin. In fact, if he ever met him, Napoleon was determined to do everything in his power to drive him away.

Summary
"It was overcast at Silverstone, that afternoon. It was cooler than last year, the wind from Friday had died down significantly, and the likelihood of seeing rain was slim to none. Conditions were favorable, and Steve had had good runs in practice and snagged P2 to start. Max had officially made her test debut for the team Saturday too, and Erica, despite her age, had gotten to be her race engineer; Max was going to get elevated out of testing and dev within the next two years and make motorsport history, and Erica was going to be the youngest race engineer in F1 history shortly there after, mark his words."
In which Steve started racing go-karts at ten, and never looked back.

Summary
He turns, scooping up his sneakers as he goes, and climbs back over the rocks. Fifteen feet between them now, and their eyes meet. Steve’s got a paper bag of groceries under one arm, balanced on his hip like a sassy single mom, and he doesn’t drop them but he pales, looks like he wants to. Eddie sees his shoulders stiffen and he asks, hoarse, “Who died?” “You did,” Eddie tells him.
Ten years on, in a town in Nova Scotia, on the edge of the Atlantic, Eddie finds Steve again, and also maybe himself.

Summary
It probably says something that the first mission they take after seventy years on ice turns into a mess of inexplicable scientific phenomena, but what that something is, Daichi really doesn't want to know.
He has enough on his plate: pop-culture references he doesn't understand; self-proclaimed 'genius, millionaire, athlete, philantropist' Kuroo Tetsurou; the king of a mysterious country who can deflect bullets without looking and punches gods in the face; gods, apparently, right out of Norse Mythology; and a scientist suffering from the kind of lab accident that means he turns into a giant grey stony rage monster whenever his serotonin levels drop.
But when the stakes get even higher and the fate of the world rests on their shoulders once more, there's no time for squabbling. Secrets come to light and relationships are tested, but they're the good guys. Aren't heroes supposed to get a happy ending?
