Summary
Kaveh's learned a thing or two in the ten years since he first became the one and only Spider-Man. Sure, he gets lonely sometimes, but that's secondary to keeping his city safe. Safe from hooligans like Deadpool, whose eerie familiarity is matched only by his terrible personality and love for doing the bare minimum. That guy is bad news if Kaveh has ever seen it. If only they could stop running into each other.
Or, five encounters between Spider-Man and Deadpool on the streets of New York, and one unexpected reunion between Kaveh and a man he thought he'd never see again.

Summary
Tighnari’s jaw snaps shut. They both watch in silence as Al-Haitham, ritual worshiper of the daily workplace routine, a transcendently habitual creature set in his ways since the moment he accepted this job offer, reaches thoughtlessly into his desk organizer for a pen and instead comes up with three-quarters of a pastel blue crayon.
Al-Haitham pauses. He looks down at the crayon in his hand; then, at the document he was about to sign. Next, he casts his gaze across the rest of his desk, where it lands on a sheet of scratch-n-sniff stickers in place of his post-its and a heart-shaped hole punch replacing his stapler. His hand visibly twitches.
I will get you, he mouths at Kaveh. Then he puts down the crayon and signs the phrase without breaking eye contact, just to be thorough.
Good luck, moron, Kaveh signs back. Then he blows a kiss.
Al-Haitham and Kaveh have a totally normal and mature workplace prank war of totally normal and mature proportions.

Summary
The thing on the floor makes a sound at him. The sound goes something like, Meow.
Kaveh had already been recognized as a genius by the time he was learning nursery rhymes, so he is of course very well-acquainted with the sounds and transliterations thereof made by various common animals. In fact, his recall speed for these associations is likely significantly above average. This is why he recognizes so rapidly and adeptly that there is a fucking cat on his floor even though he does not and has never owned a cat.
“Meow,” says the cat again.
“Yes, I know,” Kaveh says irritably, and then immediately feels bad about it. “I mean.” He clears his throat. “Meow, as well.”
Al-Haitham seizes an opportunity to conduct an unusual experiment regarding Kaveh's usual patterns of behavior. To maximize the integrity of his results, he does not inform the subject of his observations about the study parameters.
Or, Al-Haitham cashes in some vacation days while in cat form, and Kaveh adopts an eccentric stray in his roommate's absence.

Summary
“You…you were obsessed with me when we were in undergrad,” Kaveh says breathlessly, dizzy with the revelation. “You argue with me all the time because you enjoy it, you absolute freak, not because you think I’m wrong.”
“Who’s the know-it-all now,” Al-Haitham retorts, but there’s no heat to it. The half-smile is making a return. At this rate, it’s going to transform into a two-thirds smile or possibly even a three-quarters smile, and what is Kaveh going to do with himself then?
Tighnari and Cyno throw a party to celebrate their engagement; Kaveh becomes the last person to learn that he has three boyfriends. Al-Haitham drinks one-third of a can of Sierra Mist and observes the ride. This is a short story about love, friendship, and the ramifications of comparing their blurry distinction to real-life historical events (or something along those lines.)

Summary
The problem wasn’t that Scaramouche was the most beautiful man that Ajax had ever laid eyes on in his life. It wasn’t that he was uncomfortable identifying when one of his friends was hot. It wasn’t even that Ajax had never found men attractive before.
The problem was that it was Scaramouche. Scaramouche, who left all his work until the morning it was due and then chugged Monster mixed with Red Bull to do it all in one manic sitting before passing out for the following 24 hours. Scaramouche, who had taught him ten different ways to say “have sex” in English and then cried laughing when he tried to repeat them in his Russian accent. Scaramouche, who genuinely believed that the earth was flat but passionately argued on behalf of climate change activists everywhere.
or, the decade-long journey that brings Scaramouche and Childe to being, well, Scaramouche and Childe.

Summary
Morax and Barbatos and Ei are YouTubers. Well, Zhongli is a funeral parlor consultant and Venti is a lawyer and the Raiden Shogun is the crown jewel of Japan's idol industry, but, you know, they're on YouTube. They're YouTubers.
Just like Zhongli's boyfriend Childe who just moved out of the hype house where the rest of his esports team live, or Venti's friend Hu Tao who runs a meme channel in between performing funeral rites, or Hu Tao's friend Xiangling who does real-life versions of dishes from TV shows and video games that always end up off-topic.
Or that guy Diluc Ragnvindr with the wine tasting channel, or Albedo from Kreideprinz who does the science videos with his little sister and the hot guy with the non-medical eyepatch, or Amber from the National Parks Service who posts super wholesome dad jokes, or Ms. Ningguang from Jade Chamber Corporate Advising with the horribly boring videos on branding, or Beidou from Crux Cybersecurity who does the same thing but much cooler and funnier.
You know, like YouTubers.

Drink this to sober up. Please carefully review my attached documents regarding our unplanned sexual encounter last night. I believe I have touched on all important points. I will not field follow-up questions before 6.30p.m., so do not try.

Summary
“I understand why you’re hung up over this,” Komaeda sighs. Politely, Izuru refrains from informing him that he certainly doesn’t. “It’s only natural, of course. Your brilliant mind won’t tolerate any less than perfection.”
Komaeda shakes his head. “Of course, someone like me could never really be able to relate. With as feeble and insignificant as I am…”
Another set of meaningless, boring words. They are not what Izuru wants to hear.
It is then, with a chill that perhaps brings him more joy than it should, Izuru realizes he doesn’t know what it is he does want to hear. His eyes widen just a fraction, his next breath uneven from where it catches briefly in his throat. The uncertainty tightens in his stomach, and it makes his entire spine tingle.

Bookmarker's Notes
one of those pieces that worms its way into your heart as you go, and you just know it’s going to stay there. reading this was itself a divine revelation and one that I think everyone who loves these characters should have. extended author's note at the end made me tear up

Summary
Are you gloating? Are you trying to get me to leave? Kaveh wanted to ask. Do you even care?
But that was the whole point, wasn’t it? That Al-Haitham did care. That was why he found out what he did about Sachin and Kaveh’s father, and it was Kaveh who had to come to terms with the fact that he’d been wrong.
Do you regret staying with me?
Kaveh swallowed. “Even…even that. I do not regret it.”
