    Summary

    At first, Sirius had simply perfected the art of silence under Veritaserum, and been content with that. Silence was safest in that house. But Walburga had not relented in the frequency of her dosages, and Sirius, who had always been a perfectionist, took it as a challenge. By fourteen he could tell a lie unflinching while it coursed through his veins. By fifteen he could do it with a smile on his face. By sixteen he could make it look effortless.

    Tell us something.

    Sirius grinned sharply, and with practiced ease, he lied: “I am the pride and joy of the Noble House of Black, and Walburga’s favorite son.”

    OR

    The Marauders take Veritaserum, and quickly realize it’s not Sirius’s first time.

    Summary

    Spider-Man. The one and only superhero—an enigma who could crawl on walls, swing across skylines, and disappear into the shadows before anyone even snapped a photo. Kids adored him. Teenagers idolized him. The press tore itself apart trying to uncover the man under the mask. From the outside, it all looked like a thrilling game. But Neil Perry knew it wasn’t a game at all.

    Summary

    "Don't make this into something it's not. If you think I got your best interests at heart, you're in for a frosty kind of awakening." Leonard reaches for the cue ball and gives it a little spin that sends it crashing into the eight ball, knocking it around. "I just like to keep you on your toes, that's all."

    Summary

    One night, Page looks up from her laptop and says, "Rough night?" Elektra hasn't even made it into the living room, but the question makes her stop in her tracks, and to make up for it, Elektra cocks her head and stares at Karen like she's asked an inconceivable question rather than an accurate one. Karen just smiles. "It's all over your face."

    Elektra laughs it away and says, "You think you've got a read on me all of a sudden?"

    "Call it journalistic intuition."

    -

    Karen doesn't expect her ex's ex to ask her for help, Elektra doesn't expect to keep coming back, and neither of them expect to fall in love.

    Summary

    “Why won’t you take me?” she whispered, her voice breaking, another kiss swallowed by the weight of her emotions. “Why won’t you fight me like you did before? Why do you think I’ll break?”

    Circe stilled beneath her, and Penelope swallowed down the truth she couldn’t bear to voice.

    “Why won’t you treat me like you did Odysseus?”

    The words left her in a broken sob, and with them, the floodgates opened. Tears fell freely now, shaking her shoulders, her body curling inward even as Circe lay beneath her, silent in the wake of the confession.

    ═════

    Or, Penelope decides to go search for Odysseus after reaching her breaking point. She ends up on the isle Aeaea, and meets the godess Circe; who changes her view permanently on such husband.
