  2. Summary

    The shenanigans that the X-Men: Alternate Timeline movies should've been, because the idea of Scott, Jean, Kurt, Peter, Ororo, and Jubilee as a team/friend group has not left my brain and hopefully never will.

    Summary

    Holy shit, Will thinks. Holy shit, that’s Mike Wheeler.

    Dead center stage, his long fingers plucking expertly at a deep blue electric guitar, is a living ghost of Will’s desperately buried past. The central figure of his best childhood memories and worst adolescent shames, the boy he thought he’d left behind for good, the first and only person he’d ever really been in love with. Mike.

    Chicago, 1993. Will is working as an illustrator, back in the Midwest for the first time since he left at 14. Mike is the frontman of an up-and-coming alt rock band he started with his college friends. Through sheer luck, their paths cross, and everything they ever left unsaid comes bubbling back to the surface.

    Summary

    It's not even like Will is some godlike specimen. His skin is olivey and a bit summer-tan, and he has floppy, honey-brown hair and a few moles smattered adorably across his face and arms, but he is very much just a boy. Average height, average build, symmetrical face. He's wearing jeans and a Zelda T-shirt and plain white Vans. But he gives Mike an awkward half-smile and a wave as he introduces himself at the box office, and Mike can actually feel himself get stupider.

    Will and Mike meet working at their local movie theater, and Mike is so into Will — particularly his hands — that he almost gets fired.

    Summary

    Will’s voice trails off, and he runs a hand over his face. Mike waits a few moments to see if he’ll say anything else, but when Will doesn’t, he takes a shaky breath and tries to find his own courage.

    “And you thought, what?” Mike whispers. “That - that it wouldn’t mean as much to me if it came from you?”

    Will flinches. He’s still turned away from Mike, and there’s a desperation in his voice when he whispers back, “Mike, please…”

    Or:

    After returning to the Wheeler house, Mike finds out the truth about Will’s painting.

    Summary

    The Sentiment of Steel, or "Sentiment du Fer": a fencer’s ability to use his sword to feel and manipulate the opponent’s sword. A concept with which Glorfindel and Ecthelion are far too familiar.
