"Hi, you've reached Billy Kaplan. I can't come to the phone right now for some reason, but if you leave a message, I'll get back to you soon. Bye!"

So, Billy had to admit that Topher was right - the back room at Stark Industries was an awesome place to have sex, especially if you were doing it for the first time. When he woke up, the haze that had permeated so much of his week was gone, but Billy didn't have any regrets ( Read more... )

So far, Billy's classes were pretty cool, even if some of them hadn't been quite what he'd expected, thank you GLaDOS. He was a little nervous about tomorrow though - he had class with Magneto who he might possibly be related to, and that reminded him that Tommy was still ignoring his text messages, if he'd even held on to the cell phone Kate had ( Read more... )

For their part, the Avengers did an admirable job at trying to deal with the Kree and the Skrulls, and their equal insistance that Teddy needed to come along or they'd play out a second war on the Avengers' turf. Captain America was adamant that the only fair option was for Teddy to stay where he was, on Earth, and it seemed like that option would ( Read more... )

It was only slightly surprising when Tommy chose to be a superhero, given the options Eli had offered, and it was only slightly surprising when Tommy's abilities proved to be majorly useful in rescuing Teddy from the Super-Skrull ( Read more... )

What Billy had wanted to do after realizing that the Super-Skrull had kidnapped Teddy was dive out the hole in his apartment wall, with or without the other Young Avengers behind him, and do whatever it took to get Teddy back.

What Billy had to do was try to calm down his mother, who was quickly descending into shock, and finally give in and cast ( Read more... )

So, most of Billy's time at home was supposed to be spent with his family, but thankfully, his parents understood that he needed to spend time with his friends too. Especially since they had a very important mission ( Read more... )

Billy had always been a fan of low-key birthdays - a little cake, some presents, and that was about it. He'd only had one class today, so now he had all afternoon to do whatever he wanted to celebrate being sixteen. His parents had come through with a bunch of different gift cards, since it was easier for him to pick out what kind of geeky things ( Read more... )

Billy and Topher had originally made plans to go out for an ice cream date over the weekend, but that idea had been hampered by the whole pony thing. So, of course, the day they rescheduled for was the day the island was invaded by goats. Of course.

"Tell me this wasn't our fault?" Billy said, once they were safely inside. He didn't really think ( Read more... )

Considering how much trouble Fandom had given them in getting together in the first place, Billy and Topher had agreed to have their first date away from the island, but it had been Billy's idea to get a portal to his New York, so he could show Topher some of the city (without any encounters with giant rats, he'd promised). He hadn't meant to pick ( Read more... )
