    Summary

    Something about that stops him short. “Wait, his family business was a diner?”

    “Yeah,” Robin says. “My mom hated it. I think she still blames the diner for ruining all our lives.”

    Steve furrows his brow, thinking. Something is starting to sound eerily familiar, but he can’t quite put his finger on it.

    “Here?” he asks, straining his mind in a bid to figure out why this information doesn’t feel new.

    “You might’ve known it, it was pretty popular,” she says, and that’s when his blood runs cold.

    Steve learns that Robin's dad is dead. Then he finds out just who her father was. Then, worst of all, he finds out she doesn't know the truth of his death.

    Or: Robin is Benny Hammond's daughter.

    Summary

    “When I said “He was just my Tammy,” I meant that I was looking for answers in somebody else. But all this time, I had all the answers. Once I realized that, I felt so free, it's like a could fly."

    Mike knows he’ll never fly. Not like Will. Because even when they’re both on the brink of death, when there’s literally no one around to judge him, when the whole world they’re in is about to blow up into oblivion, ending a years-long nightmare, ending them with it, he struggles to say it. He could never say it under normal circumstances. But he has so, so many regrets.

    “I’m so sorry, Will. I know it wasn’t that serious to you. Just a crush. But still, it must’ve sucked. I’m sorry I didn’t realize sooner.

    “Mike, I already said, I’ve forgiven you.”

    "I'm sorry about one more thing. I’m sorry that it was never just a stupid crush for me.”

    Or

    The plan works, only with one small hiccup: Will and Mike end up in the UD with the gate closed. Forced into honesty by a looming death and a literal ticking time bomb, they make sure they don't have any regrets.

    Summary

    'Oh Lord, Oh Lord, what have I done?' Thought Luigi helplessly, as his gloved fingers ran up Bowsers arm, 'I've fallen in love with a man on the run.' He wrapped his arms around Bowser's neck. 'Oh Lord, Oh Lord, I'm begging you please, don't take that sinner from me...' He clung to Bowser, who pulled him closer suddenly. 'Oh don't take that sinner from me...'
    It's bad enough he fell in love with Bowser, but he was having an affair with him. And nobody knew...
    "I've missed you," Bowser said in a gruff voice, but he sounded so soft and kind.
    "I've missed you too, bello..."

    Or;

    Luigi and Bowser are in love, and Luigi faces an internal battle.

    Summary

    “I’m fine, just — a little distracted. Sorry.” He shook his head, trying to ignore the wide, gaping hole in his heart. “You can start over.”

    “No.” Aether squinted at him, and Xiao knew there was no way he was getting away with it. “Talk to me. What is it?”

    “It’s nothing, I swear —”

    “It’s something. Your entire mood changed.” Aether sighed. “You can’t keep doing this, Xiao. We’ve had this conversation before.”

    “I know, I just —” I can’t say it. I can’t.

    “Xiao,” Aether coaxed.

    A particularly cold gust of wind blew by, making Xiao shudder.

    “Aether.” He took in a shaky breath. Suddenly, it felt like the entire world around them had come to a halt.

    “What happens to us . . . when you leave?”
