Bookmarker's Notes
Regulus holds out his hand expectantly toward Colin’s camera. Although confused, Colin passes it to him. “If you want to show your father all the wonderful things about Hogwarts, then you must start with the most magical part he’ll ever witness.” Regulus raises the camera to his face and snaps a shot of a startled-looking Colin. “And that’s you.”
"Remember Creevy.” Regulus returns the camera to the boy. Colin is quiet for once. Listening with rapt attention. “The world is a big place, don’t let anyone ever tell you there’s no space for you here.”

Greet Death as a friend.
“I don’t make wands with cores like these. That wand was made, long ago, by my grandfather. He had an old fascination over the Deathly Hallows.”
Deathly Hallows? The children’s bedtime story? Regulus used to ask his cousins to perform the tale. Bella wielded the elder wand. Cissa possessed the resurrection stone. Andy hid under the cloak of invisibility.
At the end of each performance, Andy would remove the blanket and wrap him in it. She’d tuck him into bed and say, “Don’t be afraid, I’m sure dying is a lot like falling asleep.” It was a phrase that was supposed to ease his mind and lull him into slumber.

Summary
“Yes, I’m in love with you,” Lex says, like he’s explaining that the Earth is round; like this is some baseline, inalienable fact that’s not irretrievably reorganizing Clark’s existence. “I’ve never seen any reason for that to be an impediment to our friendship.”

Bookmarker's Notes
The red-K summer had been mayhem. Back before Lex had earned his place among Clark’s circle of secret keepers, and the simmering resentments had kept him from searching for Clark as hard as he should have, writing it off as nascent teenaged rebellion. So he’d left him to wander Metropolis, alone and uninhibited. Only obviously not alone. Not nearly alone enough. Even after he’d come back everything had been awful and stilted, and then not long after Clark started hanging around with—
Lex presses his hands against the tops of his thighs to stop them from trembling.
“Who?”
Please, not Queen.
Clark rolls his eyes, “It doesn’t matter.”
Literally anybody but Queen.
“Yes, it does. Who?”
Lex has endured Superman’s ongoing acquaintance with the Green Arrow, but he refuses to live in a world where Oliver Motherfucking Queen gets to walk around knowing what Clark looks like when he comes. Where he might have been the one—the first —
“What you mean is, why not you?”
He’s going to have to figure out how to hide a body from fucking Superman. And Batman. The whole terrible do-gooder gang, because the only alternative is throwing himself off the balcony and he’s reasonably sure Clark would just catch him, the bastard.
“What I mean is: names, social security numbers, identifying features.”

Bookmarker's Notes
Luke comes back during HoO
~~
Concern for others is good. Empathy is good. Murder is bad. Killing dead people is still murder.
Hm.
He could always just kill himself again if Percy doesn't want him there.
"Alright, it's settled!" Luke stands up cheerfully.
