That’s fine.
Right?

Summary
He’s not alone—hardly ever is, in Boston.
But maybe, just maybe, he’s lonely.
It sneaks up on him in stupid moments: standing in line at the bank, catching a ride with Connors after practice, because he doesn’t have a car yet. Lying awake at night with the low hum of traffic outside and the wrong kind of silence pressing in around him.
In his rookie year, Ilya makes an anonymous online friend. Unfortunately, it's a terrible idea.

Summary
It was supposed to be the trip of a lifetime. Almost a full week, where they could set aside personal relationship drama, family issues or fears for the future and just embrace the reward for having worked their asses off to come this far. They're going to Beijing.
And then, the plane drops.
Ukai Keishin wasn't even sure he wanted to be responsible for coaching these boys in the long run. He's certainly not sure how he's supposed to keep them alive in the unfamiliar mountain wilds.

Summary
Lex’s fingers trail down his scalp, stroking the nape of Kon’s neck with his nails. He shivers. “Kon, it’s not a secret that Superman and I are not friends, but you don’t think I would bring his child into our disagreements, do you? You wear his emblem, and yet we don’t let that get between us.”
Of course, Kon thinks. Jon is still a middle schooler. Too young for Lex to look at him with rage, the same way he looks at Superman (or with hunger, the way he looks at Kon). He still feels weird that Lex knows Jon exists.
OR: Kon thinks of Jon like a brother. He would do anything for the kid—anything except tell Jon that he’s been hooking up with Lex Luthor for the better part of a year.
Kon knows Lex isn’t a good guy, but he’s the only adult that Kon can turn to. Mount Justice has become too big and too empty, and Lex is always there to comfort him whenever he needs. No one would understand, Lex says, and so Kon will keep this secret from everyone. Even his team. Even Jon.

Summary
Will takes a moment, hands clenched into fists at his sides, to rest his head against the grain of the wood and close his eyes. Here, with the solid weight of the door to ground him, he evaluates the facts: the war is over, Vecna dead and gone for good this time. Max is awake, reunited with Lucas and El at last, who both rushed to return to their places at her bedside the moment they knew. The rest of his family is upstairs, the rest of his friends alongside them, alive and mostly well and rejoicing in the fact that a years-long nightmare has finally reached its conclusion. It’s a night for togetherness, for celebrating hard-earned victories, for finally looking ahead instead of back over their shoulders.
It’s also a night where Will almost killed Mike.
In the midst of their final stand against Vecna, a possessed Will nearly strangles Mike to death. In the basement bathroom of the Wheeler's house after their victory, Mike and Will confront the aftermath.
