Summary
“Wait, wait!”
Mike breathes out slowly, like she’ll scare Will away if she’s too loud. “Please. Please don’t leave.”
Will is facing her again, and—and Mike feels like she’s never been more present than right now, a foot apart in Jennifer’s tiny bathroom, and simultaneously like she’s on a whole different plane of existence. It’s so small in the bathroom that she’s been leaning heavily against the counter to make room; looking up at Will, who’s usually a few inches shorter, is making her feel lightheaded.
Mike bites her lip and whispers what she hopes will make Will stay.
“I’m sorry.”
She sucks in a breath. “I’ve been an asshole. Mostly to you, which is so much worse than if I’d just been an asshole to your girlfriend. But I’m sorry for that too. I’ll be better. I promise.”
Mike looks down, feeling preemptively embarrassed for what she’s about to say. “I wasn’t joking when I said I was jealous. You’ve spent all night with her, and I barely know anybody here. I know it’s stupid because I literally live with you, but I missed you tonight.”
Or: It's 1993, Mike is in a riot grrrl band, Will is being confusing and distant, and then everything implodes.

Summary
“See!”
“Mich—”
“So how can this keep happening?” Michelle continues, throwing her hands up. “I know what I like. I tell them what I like. Somehow, they still manage to screw it up. I—”
“Maybe they get in their heads.”
Michelle narrows her eyes at her. “You know what’s crazy?”
“No, and I genuinely don’t want to,” Willow says, but god, she doesn’t want to guess either. Which would really be worse, though? Knowing or filling in the blanks?
It seems it’ll boil down to the latter, since Michelle doesn’t speak for a while. Instead, she worries her bottom lip, studying Willow. In that one long second, Willow almost convinces herself that Michelle will drop it, and that’s probably for the better.
Except she’s not that lucky.
“Well,” Michelle says slowly, “I genuinely think I'd do a better job.”
or
Willow has spent a decade learning how to put all her feelings and desires in a box. Then Michelle comes home from another terrible hookup, determined to prove she’d be better at getting girls off than any guy she’s ever slept with.
It’s hypothetical, until it isn’t.

Summary
Being a part-time superhero doesn’t solve Will’s problems; instead, it adds to them. As Cleric, he’s forced to deal with his egotistical know-it-all of a partner, Paladin. As Will, he’s stuck hopelessly pining after his best friend. He’s honestly not sure which is worse.
One thing’s for sure, though — he needs a change. In one of his weaker moments, Will comes up with a plan: get over Mike by getting under someone else, someone he knows he won’t fall for.
Maybe Paladin is good for something, after all.
