Spy x Family

Story by Tatsuya Endo

Manga Volume 1

School Setting, Action, Adventure, Found Family, Humor

Story   ★★★★☆   ||   ★★★☆☆   Art

Summary

Not one to depend on others, Twilight has his work cut out for him procuring both a wife and a child for his mission to infiltrate an elite private school. What he doesn't know is that the wife he's chosen is an assassin and the child he's adopted is a telepath!

Review

Well this was wildly popular and the anime so enjoyable that I thought I would read the manga too and after 8 volumes well, I do like it and find it fun and the characters are great, I do find the story uneven at times, it doesn’t seem as flushed out and focused as I thought is would be.  The parts that work are really engaging and I love the characters, but that just makes the ‘filler’ chapters even more noticeable and throws the pacing off for me. I will admit that I did go the the web to find the more recent fan chapters because I did want more, and that is atypical for me, so it just shows you how engaging the story and characters are that I wish the story was just a little more streamlined cause that is when this manga shines.

In case there is someone who hasn’t heard of this series, it is a wholesome mix of the action, found family, and private school genres. Basically there is a tentative peace between two recently waring nations, and they are in a cold war with each side spying on the other. Westalis’s super master of disguise spy, Twilight takes on the new identity of Loid Forger. His mission is to create a fake family and get his kid into an elite private school so that he can gain access to a highly suspicious leader of the Ostania’s National party who has two children enrolled in the school.

Loid adopts Anya, a smart, adorable girl with a secret of her own - she is a telepath. This has gotten her into trouble in the past so she has learned to hide her powers. Anya being able to read people’s minds is one of the funnier aspects of the series. In order for Anya to be admitted Loid needs to prepare her for the entrance exam and find a wife for the interview process. Enter Yor, a  seemingly meek and gentle government worker with dark secrets of her own. Together they pretend to be a ‘perfect’ family as they try and keep their secrets from each other and perhaps save the world from another world war.

That is the basic premise, the anime does an excellent job covering the manga material, in some parts even makes it better. Solid, fun series.

Yuri Author's Work is Stolen and Sold Online

Yuri author Saturnalia Blackrose reported today that her Yuri web novel series Date Her Instead is being sold online without her permission. The series is posted as an eBook on Amazon's Kindle store, claiming to be by Quang Wang Comics.

The book appears to have been posted on Amazon in June of this year. So far, its lack of ratings might imply that it has not sold many copies. Blackrose told YuriMother that she has filed a copyright infringement report and is waiting on Amazon to take action against the posting or contact her.

Piracy is a rampant problem in the manga, webcomic, and webnovel industries. However, most of the time it takes the form of illegal scans from purchased works uploaded to websites for free consumption. It is unusual, though not unheard of, for series to be sold by internet pirates.

Date Her Instead is available for free in English on WebNovel and Wattpad. They feature illustrations by Glocerio Bapprima.

The series description reads:

Two girls wake up one morning with the same thought: "Today, I'm going to confess!"

Kanako Nakatomi and Haruna Endo are both in love with the boy they grew up with, Akio Miyashita. But when the two girls confess to him at the same time, Akio has a different proposal: He'll go out with one of them after one year. The catch? For that year, Kanako and Haruna have to date each other instead?!

Do not support the stolen listing on Amazon, and if you are interested in checking out Date Her Instead, read it for free on Wattpad and Webnovel today.

Note: Saturnalia Blackrose has previously sponsored content on YuriMother. This report is not sponsored by the author.

How to create a happy family?

Spy x Family is written and illustrated by Tetsuya Endo. We have three main characters in the family. Child Anya is a orphan and can read your mind. She is a young and cute little girl. I think Anya is a meme in the web. Why? Her character is placed in another series or manga. Mother Yor - she is twenty-seven years old and she works in the town hall. Her true work is contract killing people. Also, Yor is a very powerful woman, fox example in the anime she stops a running bull in a few seconds. Although she is a strong character her weakness is alcohol. The last part of family is spy Loid. This name is not true, because he often changes his identity. Loid is "Dusk", a famous and the best spy. In the anime we see Loid can do everything for his missions. For example, he never cooks, but makes delicious dishes according to the recipe. Everybody in the Forger family has secrets because Anya doesn't talk about her ability and neither do Loid and Yor. This anime is universal. People can watch this show with family or alone to track the love story of Loid and Yor. True love or love only for a mission?

Across The Divide

In a weird mood tonight and my muses are not cooperating with the stuff I want to work on. Hence this was born.

Warnings: AU, kidnapping, manipulation, IronWinterShieldSpider, Hydra, Superior Iron Man

Summary: Superior Iron Man, Captain Hydra, and the Winter Soldier lure a spider into a web of their own making...

****

Glowing blue eyes surveyed the damaged city and current battle site from an aerial perspective. Through a com link provided by nanotech, he addressed his comrades that were on the street level.

“Any signs yet, boys?”

A soft voice with an underlying steely tone answered first, “No sightings yet.”

“How about you, Cap?”

A grunt answered first, before a verbal reply of, “No indications he’s here. Are you sure this is the right one, SIM?”

“I’m hurt, Cap,” he quipped. “When have I ever given you reason to doubt me?”

His verbal banter was interrupted by his suit’s AI warning, “Boss, I’ve got incoming. 99.99% probability of it being the target.”

An unseen grin creeped across his face. “Heads up boys, looks like our prize is on his way.”

****

The battle appeared to be almost over by the time he arrived. KAREN had provided Peter with some basic information as he had swung his way towards the site, including that it appeared Captain America was in the midst of the main action. When he arrived at the specified location, all Spider-Man saw was a bunch of robots surrounding the fighting Captain America.

Swinging into immediate action, Spider-Man quickly began to immobilize the robots with his webs. His appearance seemed to give Captain America a boost of energy and the two heroes quickly incapacitated the remaining robots. Luckily, all civilians had already evacuated the street or were cowering in the businesses lined up on either side.

Not seeing any more attacking enemies, Spider-Man turned towards his comrade. “Are you okay, Mr. Captain, sir?”

The man wearing the iconic Captain America uniform, complete with vibranian shield, nodded at the web-slinger. “Thanks for the assist, Spider-Man. I got separated from Iron Man, but he should be on his way to our position.”

“Mr. Stark, I mean Iron Man, is here? I thought he was in Europe helping Scarlet Witch and Black Widow with a mission?” asked the confused hero, his eyes wide in the mask. With his head cocked to the side, he looked adorably bewildered, even with a concealed face.

A quick buzzing of his spider sense in the back of his head had Spider-Man whipping his head upwards, even as the sound of thrusters hit his ears. Slightly startled, because surely his senses weren’t telling him Iron Man was a threat to him, he almost missed the fact that the hovering hero was not sporting his iconic red and gold armor.

“Woah, Mr. Stark, new suit upgrade?” Spider-Man was practically vibrating in place with excitement as he looked over Iron Man’s silver armor, completely forgetting his previous question about Iron Man’s mission.

“Yep kiddo. It’s a new prototype that I’m calling ‘Endo-Sym’ armor. Come swing by the lab and we can go over the specs together. Maybe grab dinner as well,” Tony said as the head covering of his suit slithered away from his face and he landed near the other two heroes.

“Um, no can do tonight, Mr. Stark. I gotta date tonight with MJ, which if I don’t leave for right now, I’m gonna be late again. Rain check?” asked the young hero, gazing at the time display on the nearby bank marquee. Preoccupied, he didn’t notice the dark looks that suddenly crossed both Iron Man’s and Captain America’s faces.

“Sorry lover, it wasn’t a request.”

Puzzled by the statement uttered in all seriousness by his mentor, Spider-Man turned to give his attention to the other man. He was stunned to see bright blue eyes staring at him, where he expected to see dark brown. His spider sense started clamoring louder in his head and he instinctively reached up a hand to catch the projectile headed for his neck.

He looked down to see a small dart clutched in his hand, an unknown greenish liquid inside its clear body. He whipped around, trying to find the direction the dart came from, forgetting about the two men now at his back. Not his smartest move.

Spider-Man felt two hands like steel traps clamp down on his arms, causing him to drop the dart and effectively immobilizing him. He tried to twist around to identify his captor, but only managed to turn his head around to meet Captain America’s gaze.

“Cap, what are you doing? Let me go!” he exclaimed.

“Sorry Spidey,” said the taller hero. “Not going to happen.”

Spider-Man then felt a cold, armored hand on his covered neck, followed by the sensation of cold metal slithering between the seams where his mask met the collar of his suit. As the metal slid along his skin, he felt it encircle his neck like a living collar.

“Sleep now,” came the soft command and Peter’s world suddenly went dark.

****

Superior Iron Man, or SIM, watched as their prize slumped in Captain Hydra’s hold, no longer awake to keep his body upright. Once he was sure Spider-Man was unconscious, Cap readjusted his hold to lift the young hero in his arms in a bridal carry. SIM adjusted the sleeping man’s head so that it was resting on Cap’s shoulder while simultaneously caressing his covered cheek.

“Plan worked like a charm,” drawled their last companion, both men turning to see their third approach them from the alley shadows. When the dark haired man reached them, he bent down to retrieve the dropped dart with a metal hand, a dark red star decorating the metal plates of the attached arm.

“Of course it did, Barnes. We put too much effort into this to go back without our prize,” retorted SIM.

“Hey, cool it you two,” came the warning. “We still need to return to our world. I gotta get out of this freaking patriotic regurgitation of a uniform and Tony needs to alter our darling spider’s memories.”

“Not a problem, Cap. Our baby boy will stay sleeping as long as the sym-bot is around his neck. We’ll get him to my lab where I’ll wipe his current set of memories and personality traits, upload the ones we chose and everything will be perfect.”

The Winter Soldier reached up to the sleeping hero and tugged the mask from his head. His flesh fingers ran through the exposed chestnut curls, ruffling them into a loosened disarray. “I can’t believe we got him back,” he murmured as his gaze hungrily roamed over the flawless skin and slightly parted lips of the other.

“Let’s get going before any of this world’s heroes show up,” commanded the only blond of the group. “Tony, if you will?”

Tony allowed some of his armor to slide off his wrist, exposing a slim device that lay beneath. He pressed a series of buttons and then smirked as a bright, swirling blue vortex opened up before the three men and their captive.

“Let’s go home, loves.”

After the men and the slumbering hero passed through, the vortex collapsed on itself, leaving no physical traces behind.

Will continue with drabbles in this arc if anyone is interested in reading such... going back to work on my A/B/O project now...

Downfall Of Us All: Chapter 7

Downfall Of Us All

Chapter 7

AN: Thank you, to everyone who is liking the story, and thank you to @jtargaryen18​ for encouraging me after a rather unpleasant review. 

Warnings: Mentions of past sexual assault, divorce, child loss and PTSD.

"What the hell, Pepper?" Natasha asked shocked, she and Steve had been alerted by Sam and Sharon that Tony and Pepper were arguing. This was not a good day.

Grace had been shown around the compound by Wanda, and she'd decided to head to the gymnasium where the gymnastic equipment was kept. She'd always loved gymnastics, their mother would take them to their nearest artistic gymnastics club where they could train. She smiled at the memory, and looked at herself. She'd changed into a black sports bra with a black tank top over it, and a pair of black cropped leggings. She did a few warm ups, before playing the song. "Pulmon" by Bajofondo/ "Ironside" by Quincy Jones/ "Grand Guignol" by Bajofondo. She took in a few deep breaths, before the music played and she did her first tumble which was a double Arabian. She couldn't help but smile.

It'd been a while, but the landing wasn't bad. She did an easier series, aerial cartwheel, round off, back tuck and couldn't help but dance a little when she stuck the landing perfectly. After another couple of series, she went back to the double Arabian, much happier with that once since she'd warmed up. "Wow." She barely heard Clint over the music until he moved closer. "Not bad. With moves like that, you'll give Nat a run for her money," he said with a grin. He'd changed into t-shirt and shorts, showing off his muscular arms and legs to his advantage. "I don't know about that." Grace felt her face warm at his praise. "Let's see what else you can do," he told her, dropping back into a fighting stance. Grace supposed she was supposed to feel threatened and she did feel a little intimidated – until he winked at her and broke out into a little bit of a dance which had her laughing. "Better," he said when she seemed to relax. Then he returned to the stance. "Now, you ready?" Grace nodded. "Come at me." Clint did just that, coming at her to see what she could do. She blocked the first punch she threw then levelled a kick at his ribs. Clint winced but weathered it, aiming another swing at her which she dodged, but then he caught her with a roundhouse kick and knocked her back. Grace shifted her weight from her hands back to her legs to kick up and she sprung at Clint, going back to her martial arts moves to land a series of blows that he seemed to struggle with and she actually drove him back a little. He smirked at her. "Now you're talking. Again." They sparred for several minutes like that until Clint started to taunt her -- in a good-natured way. After one sequence he strutted, no other way to describe it, over to the wall, grabbing a wooden katana they used for practice. "What are you going to do now?" He asked, challenging her and swinging it to show off his expertise with it. Clint then headed in her direction, meaning business. Grace was proud of herself for being able to weave around his swings, only getting grazed by the wooden weapon once. On the last swing, she realized he'd backed her up against the gymnasium wall. Grace flipped back, clinging to the wall and sending out a web to jerk the weapon out of his hand and into hers. The sound clapping drew her attention to the opposite side of the room where Steve watched from the doorway. "Not bad," he told Grace, moving closer. "You hold yourself well." Clint nodded. "She's not going to be hard to train. She already moves a lot like Nat. We just need to do some fine-tuning."

"I'm not gonna like what this training is, am I?" Grace asked amused, Clint laughed and Steve smiled before he went to check on Bucky and Sophie who had come into the gymnasium. "It's going to a workout, we do it with Peter to keep all of the team fit and quick on their feet." Clint explained to her, as they went to a part of the gymnasium on fighting mats. Grace nodded in understanding, and watched him as he taught her one of the martial arts, that he and the rest of the team would be teaching her and Sophie. She had a good feeling her muscles would be aching like hell, after this rigours workout. But she did need to learn these different fighting techniques, and Clint was a good teacher.

Sophie had been sweating by the time Bucky and she had finished training, he'd been fighting her on the training mats. She could feel beads of sweat dripping down her back, and took a sip of her bottled water. She walked over to the uneven bars, and did a glide to kip for her mount before doing a seat circle backwards for a pirouette. She then did a stalder backwards with half turn to reverse/L-grip, hearing Grace cheering for her. This was bringing back happy memories of her childhood, when she and Grace would go to gymnastics while their parents were busy, and would make friends. She then took in a deep breath, and did the Endo, with a half turn. Sophie then did a handstand and then jumped to the lower bar again. She could feel the adrenaline burning through her, like fire. She then did a piked stalder with half turn, to a regular grip. For her release moves, she did a free straddle over the high bar with a half turn. She could hear Grace cheering for her, with Peter yelling out encouragement. She then did a layout Geigner, feeling the wind blow on her face, without any hesitation, she did a cast with salto forward straddled. She could hear someone cheering. "Holy shit, she and Grace are like Natasha when it comes to gymnastics, ballet and dance," Tony said dumbfounded, and awe in his voice. Sophie took in a deep breath, and performed the stalder to piked reverse hecht, over the high bar. She felt completely at ease doing this, like nothing could hurt her. She did the toe-on to layout reverse hecht, over the high bar and did two handstands and another pirouette. She then did the stalder with grip change to the low bar, she felt like someone was recording her training session. Not that she minded. She then did the Shaposhnikova with half turn, and for her dismount she did the salto backwards straight with a twist, hearing people cheer.

Bucky watched in amazement as Sophie effortlessly performed uneven bar moves, and reminded him strongly of soviet gymnasts, that he'd seen. He clapped with the others, as she performed her dismount. She offered them all a shy smile, as Grace and Peter came over to compliment her. He could tell she was shy, but also happy. "Damn, she's good. You better watch yourself, Romanoff." Tony joked, Natasha looked at him in amusement.

"We had similar backgrounds," Nat said with a smirk. "I think I'll work with Bucky and Clint in their training. I have a few moves that I can teach them." Bucky had to grin at that. "You do." "You sure you're good with this, Tin Man?" Tony asked Bucky, but his usual snark wasn't there. He nodded. In truth, he was concerned as he watched Sophie embrace her sister, happily chat with Peter for a moment. Sophie was beautiful and thankfully not as much a broken mess as he himself was. But given her parents' stories and the things they'd kept hidden from their daughters, they watched their world darken a little each day with each new discovery. Bucky was surprised he'd been entrusted with Sophie's training. He knew Steve had been pleased and likely had everything to do with it, wanting to build his confidence in his ability to do good. But what if he failed her? What if they lost her because of something he failed to teach her? And why the hell did she have to look at him as she did? The contempt, the tolerance he read in most people's faces when he encountered them? That he could handle. He knew where he'd been and what he'd done and that was always going to be a part of him. The people here, this team, the kindness and acceptance he'd earned from most of them, even Tony Stark himself, evened it all out. Sophie's gaze on him? She looked at him like he was sort of hero, someone to admire. What had he done to earn that? Particularly from someone who was anything but trusting and naïve. While there was pressure to not let the team down after they'd given him this task, it was nothing compared to the trust he read in those gentle eyes. Trust he'd not earned. After everything he'd been through, letting down this one broken woman just might be the thing that finally tore him down. "He's got this," Steve said reaching them, placing a firm hand on his shoulder. "But yeah, it makes sense for you to help out, Nat. Good call." Tony nodded, heading off towards the weights. "Good luck, kids." "Tony's worrying me," Nat told him and Steve, shaking her head. "He's almost nice. I just don't know what to do with him like this." Steve hummed his agreement. "I know. I hope he's going to be okay. I just can't believe Pepper left him like that." "She doesn't deserve him then," Sophie said joining their group. "I'm sure it's difficult to worry about all of the dangers he faces. But you'd think she would have been proud of him. Supportive." "Agreed," Nat told her. Shaking it off, Nat put her hand on Sophie's shoulder, steering her between herself and Bucky. "You up for a little more training today?" Sophie grinned, shrugged. "I'll be feeling it tomorrow but sure. Why not?" "Good attitude," Nat told her. "Given what I've seen so far today, I'm going to show you something new. You game?" Sophie looked intrigued and just a little worried. When she glanced at Bucky, he nodded his approval. He had a feeling he knew what Nat was about to do. Stepping around Sophie, Nat took on a fighting stance and Bucky stepped up. Nat did just what he thought she was going to do, she got in a couple of shots then used her scissor takedown on him which he allowed. Taking a knee as Nat finished the move, Bucky glanced back to see that Sophie was very interested in this. The fact that Grace and Peter watched with Steve off to the side showed she wasn't alone. They went through the sequence with Sophie, both Nat and Bucky correcting her form here and there, but it didn't take a lot. Still, when Nat prompted her to run through it with Bucky, Sophie hesitated. He understood why but he didn't want her afraid of him. "It's okay," Bucky told her, "It's not like you're going to be able to hurt me, doll." Sophie's demeanour shifted from intimidation to determination at that, showing him a motivator to use for her. He'd challenged her and if he knew anything about her so far, it was that she was very proud. Dropping into her stance, Sophie stared him down and he was pleased with that. She hit him hard, which was also good, managing to get her form correct and even pulling him off balance. He could've played along and gone down, but something told him it would be a mistake. She wouldn't want him to help her. When Sophie pulled away, her jaw was locked. "Can I try that again?" Nat nodded as if she expected no less. Bucky waited. Again, she hit hard and fast. The second time was even better. After several tries, she showed real promise. Nat quirked a brow at Bucky when Sophie decided she'd had enough for one day. "You did well," he told her. "I did okay." Sophie was clearly not happy with it. "It takes time to master," Nat told her. "You'll get there. Bucky's not easy to take down." "I know," Sophie smirked at him over her shoulder. Oh, that shouldn't have messed with his insides as it did. "Shit!" Peter shrieked from the mat next to them. They watched Grace execute the same move, taking Peter down easily to the mat. Clint was nearly doubled over laughing and Steve cracked up as Peter tried to jump back up before anyone saw. "Not bad," Nat told her. "I need to make a couple of adjustments but nicely done, Grace." Peter's face flushed red. "No fair!" he told her laughing. "I didn't know you were going to do... that!" "You've never had someone use that move on you?" Nat asked him. Peter shook his head. "Not so far." "Shouldn't you learn how to deal with it?" Clint threw in. Peter looked from Clint to Nat and back again. "I guess but…" Nat looked like she was going to head for Peter who put out a hand. "Nope! Not today." They all laughed as he sprinted out of the gym, nearly running Tony down as he headed out.

"Shower up, then we'll cook dinner for tonight. It's been a long day, and we'll continue training in the morning," Steve said amused, everyone nodded and headed to their bedroom to wash up.

Clint threw his t - shirt and shorts into the washing machine, before heading to the bathroom. He turned on the hot water, and sighed in relief as the water soothed his aching muscles. He felt impressed by Grace, she'd been fearless during the training session today. And he'd been impressed by her fighting against him, she was a tough young woman. He washed his skin quickly, before washing his sweat soaked hair before turning off the shower. He wrapped a towel around his waist, before opening the bathroom door. He sighed quietly, and dried himself before getting changed into a pair of fresh jeans, after putting his boxers on, and a grey t-shirt, before putting on some boots. Clint shut the bedroom door, and headed to the kitchen where the others were making dinner. Tonight's speciality was homemade southern fried chicken, with chips. Sophie and Grace had volunteered to make dessert, and Clint could smell it from where he was standing. It smelt amazing, and he walked to where Natasha was. "Damn, the food smells good." Clint said impressed, feeling his stomach growl in hunger, and causing Natasha to laugh. "They're making a Kiev cake, it should be done in two hours. They just want to make sure the meringue is fine, and they got the batter right." Natasha explained, as they saw the two women place the cake tin in the oven. "The chicken, and chips are done." Sam announced, and began serving out plates as everyone eagerly took the food, along with a drained looking Tony. They sat around the table enjoying the food, and Clint sat beside Grace as he tucked into his meal, with Lucky eating out of his dog bowl with a bowl of water beside him. That was when he saw the six cats all eating their food, all of their tails were swishing happily. Sam had given them, and Lucky the fatty bits of raw chicken which they were tearing into. It felt nice, like the team was a family as Scott Lang Skyped them from his place where he resided with his daughter, and Hope, not to mention Hank and Hope.

Pepper didn't feel guilty for leaving Tony, she'd signed the divorce papers and sent them to Tony for him to sign. She just couldn't cope with his life as an Avenger anymore. She exited Stark Tower, and was about to enter her car when she felt like someone was watching her. Dismissing it, she was about to unlock her car when a leather gloved hand slammed over her mouth. She felt her body going numb, when the man injected her with a needle. She felt her body slump against him, and the man calmly carried her to where an armoured van was. He strapped her in, and texted to the unknown number quickly. 'Extraction successful.'

Grace could hear someone falling off the bed, and rushed out of her bedroom to realise the noise was coming from Clint's bedroom. She cautiously entered, and saw nothing. That was until a rough, calloused hand grabbed her by the throat, pinning her to the wall. Thinking quickly, she kicked out and knocked him backwards. "Clint?" She asked wearily, she saw Clint looking wearily at her before his eyes refocused on her. "Grace....did I hurt you?" He asked worriedly, guilt in his voice and she shook her head as she saw he had bloody knuckles. She quietly went to the bathroom, and came out with a first aid kit. "No, you didn't hurt me. Believe me, I've had worse," Grace reassured softly, and Clint sighed quietly as she bathed his bloody, bruised knuckles. Lucky laid next to him, and he let the dog's presence comfort him, as Grace tended to his cuts. "I had a nightmare, I've been having them ever since....Laura revealed the truth. My mind's been a mess, since then." Clint admitted quietly, Grace looked at him quietly. "I have nightmares too, you know. You're not alone, I'm always back at that castle where HYDRA held me prisoner." She revealed hesitantly, causing Clint to realise something. She understood what he was going through.

Clint sat at the end of his bed, Lucky at his feet. Dropping his head in his hands, he exhaled. "Grace, I just… Why? That's the part I just don't understand." Blinking back tears, he flinched at first when she sat down next to him, wrapping a slim arm around his waist. "I'm a spy. I understand going undercover and gathering intel. I've done it for years. I just don't understand the lengths that they went to. That she went to. Why pretend to love me? For years? Why have children and pretend to love them?" "Clint," she whispered, smoothing her hand over his back. "I wish I had an answer for you. That's just unimaginably cruel." "It haunts me," his voice was about to break. "I loved them so much. I had no idea every time I was away, the danger I left them in. She could have killed them at any time, Grace. She could have hurt them. I…" "Don't torture yourself about that," she said gently. "What actually happened is bad enough." "I loved them. I loved them. Why couldn't I have kept them? Why?" Clint raised his head, tears sliding down his face. "I miss them, you know?" Grace's own eyes stung with tears. "I miss Zach too. I know how you feel." Clint sniffled. "There's a chance we might get Zach back," he told her. "I've… I hope you don't mind but I've asked Tony for his help. He's really good at tracking things and people down. Maybe…" "You did that for me?" She wanted to know. "Of course," he told her, trying to smile. "If he's out there, Tony will find him, Grace. Besides, he needs something to keep his mind occupied right now." Grace wrapped her arms around him, holding him close and for long moments they stayed there, enjoying the warmth and comfort of the other. "What Laura did," Grace finally said, "wasn't your fault. There wasn't anything you could have done, Clint. I know you won't let yourself believe that, but it's true. You're so hard on yourself." He huffed a laugh. "That's what Nat says. I try to remember that. I do. And I know I'll be able to process things better once some time has passed. And once I find her." "Laura?" He nodded. "What do you plan to do?" Grace asked quietly. "I'm going to pay her back for Lila and for Cooper. I'm going to pay her back for being a lying, deceiving, and cold-hearted bitch. I'm going to make her regret that she ever crossed my path. And Rumlow…" Grace froze. "Rumlow?" Clint nodded. "Laura was working with him the whole time." "Clint, do you –" "I know," he told her, pulling up and wrapping his arms around her, pulling her into his side. "I know who he is to you, Grace. And I'm going to make him pay for that too." It wasn't until that moment, with Grace trembling against him, that he considered just how tightly their fates were woven together with Brock Rumlow being a common factor in the heartbreak they'd both been forced to survive. "Shhh," he whispered against her head. "I'm sorry I even said that name. You're here trying to comfort me and I just…" Grace shook her head against his chest. "It's okay. I know he's out there. I know there's a good chance I'll have to even… face him. I just…" Her heart was beating so hard, a tiny tattoo against him. "Clint, I'm… afraid. I'm so afraid of him," she admitted. "Don't be." Pressing a kiss into her hair, he willed her to relax. "We'll stop him. We won't let him hurt anyone else, Grace." When she snuggled closer, he chuckled. "Since we're comfortable, want to pick something on Netflix to watch and hang out? I don't see myself being able to go back to sleep." Grace nodded, still not letting go. "Me either." She squeaked when he scooped her up, walked back to the top of the bed and sat her down in the middle. Somehow she looked so small in her t-shirt and sleep shorts. With everything she'd been through, was going through, how could she even smile up at him as she was?

"Do you have popcorn?" She asked. Clint thought about that. "No, but I have an idea. We'll go raid the kitchen." He knew she liked that idea when she bounded off the bed. "But we'll have to be quiet. Covert." Grace tried to make a serious expression which only had her laughing more. "Forget it." Clint shook his head and laughed. "We get caught, I'm totally blaming you." "Excuse me?" She asked playfully. "Come on." Opening his door, they headed up the hall, trying to be quiet and not awaken any of the others in their mission for popcorn and junk food.

Date Her Instead: Your Newest Enemies to Lovers Obsession

Saturnalia Blackrose’s Yuri web novel Date Her Instead has consumed my life for the past week. I am so thrilled to partner with its creator for this spotlight on her fantastic work.

Date Her Instead is a classic schoolgirl romance with a loud, bombastic, and dramatic story. Childhood friends Kanako Nakatomi and Haruna Endo drifted apart as they grew older. The one thing they still have in common, their mutual crush on the boy they grew up with, Akio Miyashita. When they confess their feelings to him on the same day, the girls spend as much time starring daggers at each other as they do explaining their feelings. However, Akio refused to choose, and he has a proposal to reunite his old companions: they should date each other instead!

What follows is much more than your typical “fake girlfriends” Yuri romance. Kanako and Haruna spend a great deal of their time bickering and acting antagonistic. Still, all of it is justified with deep, complex, and satisfying characteristics, explored and explained slowly over the course of the series. Each girl grows emotionally in a realistic and steady way. The series allows both to change as individuals and as a couple.

This series is the perfect slow burn romance, and you will root for the two the whole time, screaming at them to stop being idiots and just get with each other. The meticulous nature of the romance makes it all the sweeter. Who would have thought that the girl hurling insults at the other would be the first to realize her true feelings? But when she finally does, you will shout for joy!

For fans of enemies to lovers, steady building romances, and all the drama you can ask for, look no further than Date Her Instead.

You can read the first three volumes in their entirety on WebNovel and Wattpad and follow the fourth volume as new chapters are released every week. I will be following this series closely, so be sure to message me your thoughts on the latest chapter!

When he finally stumbles across that someone, even more threads of color start to seep into the ashen world around them.

  This time, when Keisuke sets off down the road, someone sits beside him in the passenger seat. The first acquaintance he’s ever made here, his first companion in this barren world. They’re both traveling in search of something, and after searching alone for so long, maybe they’ll have better luck working together? Their only lead is a witch who can answer any question—for a price. What will the two ask her, and what will she be able to tell them?

  Despite her academic brilliance, Tina is incapable of casting even a single spell. To make matters worse, entrance exams for the prestigious Royal Academy are fast approaching, and magical aptitude is mandatory!

Powerful gods rule this strange new land of magic and monsters, and every newcomer is blessed with strong stats and unique skills. Well, not quite. Makoto’s stats turn out to be pathetic, and his skills are super weak compared to his classmates’...he’s even stuck as an apprentice mage. Worse still, he’s given only ten years to live!

  Luckily, Makoto soon meets a minor goddess named Noah, who appears in Makoto’s dreams and asks him to become her first believer. With the help of Noah's blessings and a divine weapon, Makoto seeks to become strong enough to rescue his goddess from the dungeon where she’s been trapped. By training hard and using his weak skills in unorthodox ways, Makoto proves that, even when playing on hardcore difficulty, an RPG player always makes it to the end!

  J-Novel Club also licensed the manga adaptation of the above series, which comes from Hakuto Shiroi. That one also launches today with the first chapter of volume 1.
