    Chapter 1: The Asset To the rest of the galaxy, the War Room of the Flagship Excelsior—named, with zero subtlety, after the Emperor’s sword—was a monument to Kree-Skrull majesty, cold obsidian and gleaming steel, designed to intimidate. But for Billy Kaplan, it was just where he floated three feet off the deck, watching his husband pretend to care about asteroid mining rights. Emperor Dorrek VIII—Teddy—looked the part today, at least. He was wearing the imperial armor, his cape draping

    "He’s just a baby. How hard can it be?" Famous last words. When Hulkling and Wiccan take on a secret mission to return a lost prince, they trade the throne room for a cramped cockpit and deep-space danger. But along the way, the adrenaline awakens a primal change—and the need to breed. (A Marvel U fan fic.)

    Wow, @wintreargo77, what a nice comment. Glad to find you here. The story is 90% or more the same, but I couldn't resist the opportunity to do a little fine tuning. Thanks for giving it a re-read!

    Thank you @Cane23! Great to be seen. I did do a little revamp before sharing here. I hope folks will enjoy a feel-good story.

    Chapter 1: The Coma I had barely settled in my seat when the first-class attendant slid a mimosa onto the middle drink tray. “Mr. Grayson, I’m Jeremy, and I’ll be taking care of you today,” he said, with a little quirk at his lips. His eyes scanned me—the TV-actor looks, the sculpted body, the tailored clothes—before he leaned in. “If I may say, Mr. Grayson—my mother absolutely adores you.” He spoke in a hush. “She says your amnesia episodes were divine, but this new storyline—the medi

    A soap star’s homecoming turns steamy when he runs into the the hot high school guy he never really knew. Old grudges flare, new sparks ignite and a second chance unfolds in a sexy, comic romp.

    Thanks so much. Still getting my feet under myself here - but I have more stories coming!

    Thank you for reading and commenting. I appreciate it.

    I do suspect this was not a first for Thomas. Those deep, core conflicts never seem to completely resolve, do they?
  10. Boy Mercury X
    Thank you! I don't have a future plan for Thomas or Frank... but it could happen.

    1. The Consultation No one would mistake Thomas for a regular at the Locker Room Bar. The place is a favorite hangout for off duty cops, where they can swap stories and nurse beers among their own. Thomas can feel their eyes on him. His lanky 6’4” frame isn’t made for blending in, and his brown wool suit is a dead giveaway. But he’s comfortable here, even if he stands out. He barely tastes the cold domestic beer, tonguing the foam from his lips. Across from him at the scratched ta

    An attorney helps a blue-collar cop out of a jam, but he isn't looking for payment. He wants a chance to measure up to the rugged older sergeant.

    Thank you. Trying to get the hang of posting here, and I appreciate your time to read and comment.

    1. When Ms. Petersen announces she’s assigning partners for the semester project, Martin's stomach drops. He prefers to work alone. He hopes for one of the smart girls, but Ms. Petersen is already reading last names alphabetically. His comes right after Owen's. Owen. A cheeky-faced kid with glasses like the O of his name, sitting under a mop of dark curls. Martin passes him a thousand times in the halls without really seeing him, mostly because he usually has his nose in a book. He doe

    When Martin joins his quiet lab partner, Owen, at a secluded coastal cabin, he expects a boring weekend. He doesn't expect Owen to be hiding an athletic body under his baggy clothes. Martin is about to find out that the quietest boys run the deepest.

    Thank you! And thanks for the Guy Madison pic!
  18. Boy Mercury X
    Thanks so much. I appreciate you giving it a try.

    Thank you, Odie. Guy Madison was, in fact, an actor of the era, blond and good looking. Later, widely acknowledged as gay.

    1. It must be a joke, but if it is Josef doesn’t see the punchline coming. He looks again at the help wanted ad: “July 22, 1968. Writer needed. Must write good. Fast turnaround.” The address matches the squat brick building, but it looks nothing like a publishing house. Not the business tower he’d imagined—just a tired three-story tenement with a seedy bar on the ground floor. It doesn’t matter. He doesn’t have the luxury to refuse an opportunity. He’s been out of the military for a wh

    Summer, 1968. An ex-soldier with regrets pairs with an ex-boxer who never lost his punch. Their mission: finish a sci-fi comic in five days. But as the city melts, the story of hidden aliens mirrors the chemistry unfolding between them. Sometimes, unmasking is the only way to survive.

    Hello. I'm new here, as of today, January 9. I write from the Pacific Northwest. I'm happily married for a long time. I've published for some years on some other online forums, and only just learned about gayauthors today. I hope to publish something this weekend, after I ensure my profile and other settings are properly set up. Please excuse the dumb pen name. I used it when that was my tumblr blog, and too late to change now. If you'd like a more human name, call me Joe.
