So, I wrote a little something! Big thank you to @ninswhimsy , whose writing inspired me to go outside my comfort zone a bit (and write a sex pollen fic! With Michael and Liz! Unexpected, but thatâs where my brain went, ha).

Hereâs a little excerpt from Chapter 2 (the âsex pollenâ chapter):
âUm... fuck.â Michael swallows, runs a hand through his hair. âYou, uh, you using a new perfume or something? Body, ah, body wash?â
Lizâs eyes narrow. âNo. Why?â
âItâs,â Michael runs a hand through his hair, ânothing. Fucking nothing.â
Liz stills. Looks at him, really looks. He seems... on edge. Thereâs a light sheen of perspiration on his brow, under the curls, and his eyes...
âAre you okay, Mikey?â She reaches a hand out, toward his brow, and startles when he flinches back.
She can see the flare of his nostrils now, see the set of his jaw.
âI think... think Iâm feeling something now.â He bites a lip. âBut itâs not... not my powers.â
Liz looks him over, searching. âWhat is it then?â
And Michael...Michael shuts his eyes, shakes his head. âThink you need to get out of here.â
Liz takes a step back, involuntarily. âWhy?â
âLike, yesterday, Liz. Fuck.â
âDo you,â she swallows, âdo you want to hurt me?â
And Michael laughs, at that, a bitter, tense sound. âHurt you? Nah...â Lizâs gaze flicks down to his hands, hands that are gripping the metal lab table so hard that the knuckles are white. He licks his lips, seems to consider something. âWanna fuck you.â
