marvel_bang started up on the 15th, but my artist and I turned out to be the first ones to post on the 17th.
nafs did me a massive favour when my original beta-related plans didn't work out (thank you again so much), so that was a little stressful, but at least now we have a bunch of typos to laugh about together (fingers and brain, seriously, what is up with you two).

Summary: At the request of Kitty Pryde, Rictor and Shatterstar go undercover as a married couple to investigate a possible ghost on a gay cruise. Half mission, half vacation, Rictor and Shatterstar work towards solving the mystery while also thoroughly enjoying all the amenities the ship has to offer.
This is basically the most self-indulgent thing I have ever written. No lies. I had doubts at the beginning that I could write such a long story with an established relationship, that actually required a plot (ehhhh more or less), but... I just really like cruise ships for some reason, guys, I don't know.
And now... I can finally see Venom. My body is ready.
