Summary
Angus had been interested for the free meal. Ever since his grandpa died and he ran off on his own, food was a little hard to come by. He was instantly enraptured by the fantastic displays of magic the elf chef had put on display though, and on top of that the food had been fantastic
It became all too clear all too quickly that something had gone terribly, terribly wrong.
---
As he sped away from Glamour Springs, all Taako could think about was how wrong everything had gone. He hadn't meant to do that. Fuck, he hadn't meant to kill all of those people. So when he found one of the members of the audience hidden away in the back of his stagecoach, there was only one thing he could think to do.
There was no fucking way he was going to let this kid die.

“My parents want to adopt me!” Miles blurted.
Peter blinked. “I’m...I’m sorry?”
“They want to adopt me my dad thinks Spider-Man is an orphan and he wants to adopt him how am I supposed to tell my dad he can’t adopt his own son—“
“Wait wait so they don’t know you’re Spider-Man?”
“I guess not!” Miles rubbed his face. “Oh my god I’m really in it now…”
---
Miles is trying his best to live up to the Spider-Man mantle, but when a certain New York police officer takes it upon himself to take Spider-Man under his wing, keeping the all-important identity a secret becomes easier said than done.

Summary
So Luz is Edalyn’s kid, and Hunter is Luz’s brother, but he’s not Edalyn’s kid. He’s, genetically speaking, Edalyn’s great-great-great-great-great-great grandfather. And yet, he can’t be placed as their ancestor because Lilith’s niece says it would hurt her brother’s feelings, though Lilith’s niece’s brother isn’t Lilith’s nephew. Because he’s her ancestor. Do keep up.
There must be some way to represent this mess visually in a manner that would make sense, and would also entail King being at the top of the page and having a crown. Lilith’s not one to disregard the Titan’s requests.(Or: There’s a dinner party at the Owl House, and the whole family’s invited. Yes, some of the family members don’t know that they are family yet. But they will surely enjoy the news about their ortet, and there are also glowing letters, two different cakes, and the resident bad girl historian has been working on the family tree for quite some time. It’s going to be great.)

Summary
All of Hunter's life, he has copied those around him; all the ways they smile, all the ways they are cruel and, most importantly, all the ways in which they pretend. But as dark truths come to light and new friendships are formed, Hunter slowly but surely learns to carve out his own identity.

Summary
Hunter found, time and time again, that despite his best efforts, his life was frustratingly cyclical. (He wasn’t stupid. He’d seen his uncle’s memories. The Clawthornes all had bird Palismen, and Flapjack told Hunter to call himself Caleb. It wasn’t hard to piece together the person he’s supposed to be).
And, well– the only difference between him and the other Golden Guards is that he’s alive. (He can’t rationalize it any other way. He got lucky. Right place, right time. What did Hunter do to deserve to live? What did the others do to deserve to die?)
So of course the egg he'd carved had hatched into a bird.
Or: Hunter has a hard time accepting Waffles into his life.

“I’m sorry,” said Hunter.
“For what?” she said. “You didn’t do nothin’.”
“I guess I’m just – not very good at this.”
“At what?” she said. He didn’t answer, so she made some guesses. “Making decisions? Conversation? Listening to awesome stories?”
“I guess,” he said. “I guess having friends.”
Oh, thought Luz.

Summary
'He drops something in. It moves and writhes, but it is clearly exhausted. “Eat,” is all he says, voice barely above a whisper. But it is a demand nonetheless, intimidating enough to send shivers down her spine. She hisses in protest once more.
He tucks the notepad and pen into his cloak and pulls out a staff. It unfolds and glows a bright red. He does not say anything more. He is nearly always silent when she sees him.'Or: Vee and the Golden Guard’s relationship is complicated, but it is there

"We're here," he announced.
Vee took a step back and looked up at the double doors they were standing in front of. She swallowed thickly.
"This is your last chance," her brother said in a heavy voice. "We can still turn around, right now, and go home. No judgement."

Summary
“The curse was pretty clear on me not telling lies,” concedes Reigen. “It was pretty clear on me telling the truth. But,” as he lifts one finger, already sliding into the same educational tone he generally uses for imparting wisdom to Mob about life and love and the overall holistic benefits of making sure he’s always available for unexpected overtime work on weekends, “telling the truth isn’t necessarily the same as being honest, is it?”
“You’re the professional liar,” says Dimple. “You tell me.”
(Being cursed to only tell the truth and being cursed with Dimple as an employee are pretty much equally bad, as far as Reigen's stress levels are concerned.)

Summary
It was James' first time leading a mission, and he was sure that everything would go perfectly. Two weeks undercover with a fake wife and a fake son. Now if only the kid would stop making James want to strangle him, that would be great.
“What would you know of it? You’re probably just jealous of the kid.”
Ed's eyes flicked wider, as if he had never even considered that option before.
“Who’d be jealous of him?” Incredulity dripped from every word, and surely the Fullmetal Alchemist couldn’t be that bad.
“So you’ve met him, then?” Bauer asked, intelligence background at work as she sought information about these two children.
Elric just cackled and flipped open the file.
“What’s the bastard left for me this time?”

Jefferson Davis just wants his son to be okay.
