Ashton then heads into the kitchen, presumably fixing himself something for lunch.

Calum feels kind of weird being called bro, honestly. He’s not sure what about it bothers him; it doesn’t always feel wrong. And he is technically a guy. He has a dick and everything. Of course, he knows not all guys have dicks and not all girls have vaginas, but…he’s not a girl. He’d know if he was a girl, wouldn’t he? He’d have figured it out by now. Or at least, he thinks he would have. There would have been some indication, surely. Yeah, he’s always liked to look pretty and maybe he might have tried on Mali’s dresses a couple times when he was a little kid but it’s not like anything jumps out at him and screams girl.

In other words, Calum discovers that they’re genderfluid.

In a hideout far off the world’s radar, two women who were once weapons struggle to discover who they are when there is no longer a war to fight. But rebuilding a body is easy; mending a soul has consequences the Multiverse may not forgive.

Years later, a chance reunion at an LGBTQIA+ music event brings them back into each other’s orbit. Old wounds resurface, but so do long-buried feelings and the undeniable connection that never truly faded. As they’re forced to work together, Natasha and Wanda must navigate the tension between them, the expectations of fans, and the vulnerability of unfinished love.

Through music, raw confessions, and the support of those closest to them, they face a question that looms larger than the stage: Is it too late for second chances, or can they finally find the courage to write a new ending to their story?

you erode all of my edges (and make me into love) (ao3) - azsthztxc OT4 T, 4k

Summary: For all the people Ashton has loved, it never quite crossed his mind how differently love exists. That sure, somewhere within the love between friends and family, romantic partners and the kind of love you extend to random people that come through your life, Ashton definitely put together that not all feelings of love are the same.

But when it comes to loving Michael, Calum, and Luke, Ashton has found that it’s not quite as simple as clearly-cut categories between labels on relationships. He might even consider it wrong to confine the feelings he has for them—in both degree and complexity—into something as simple as just romantic infatuation or as cut-and-paste as seeing himself with them for the rest of his life. Ashton definitely does, don’t get him wrong, but for all the love he’s experienced and given, it’s strange to come to an awareness that even when you think love is the same—even when you might even want it to be—it’s not.

That, to Ashton at least, it’s less of differences in relationships and more of differences in people that we love, that inspire us to love differently.

Summary: Luke and Michael have been best friends since elementary school, moving out of the country all alone, but together for college, getting through all the highs and lows of adulting together. There’s never been a person who knows them that doesn’t refer to them as “Luke and Michael”. Always paired, and if one’s without the other, questions are immediately asked. Hell, some people automatically assume they’re dating, and he hurriedly corrects them. But deep down, Luke doesn’t want to. He doesn’t know when his brain made the transition of looking at Michael as a friend to someone he’d want as more than a friend, but it’s true. Sometimes, when he stares at Michael’s choppy, often dishevelled blue hair, he feels like-
