《Performance》Act 1: Scene 17
Advertisement
Emile asked Patton if he could help him make and serve drinks. Patton, of course, said he didn't have to, he wouldn't be allowed to pay him, anyway.
Emile smiled, "I'm helping a friend, not working."
So, Patton relented. He thought he'd caught Emile's gaze lingering on him a bit, but it was hard to be sure and he doesn't wanna call him out on it.
Multiple conversations Emile would space out, despite looking right at him. A lot of his answers were flustered or a little too affectionate.
Patton hoped to whatever god there was that what was happening with Emile wasn't what he thought it was...but he knows better than to give his faith to that.
Emile set some drinks down when he caught a glimpse of Patton. What can he say? Patton is beautiful...
Emile knows exactly what he's feeling. Right now, he's heavily attracted to him. He knows better than to see it as a crush right now. Honestly, a relationship with
Patton feels weird. But, well, Patton's kind, cute, caring, empathetic, and he's doing everything he can to help some broken rich kids who refuse to acknowledge him.
So...yeah. Emile is attracted. He knows better than to try to deny that or repress it, so he's just letting himself go with it. Whatever happens happens, and Patton's too affectionate to let their friendship fall apart if anything bad happens. So, no, he's not ashamed of himself.

Logan gaped at Remy, "Why am I dressed like this...?"
Logan found himself in a black t-shirt and a slightly shiny silver jacket. His white shorts were almost a little too short, though he found that he didn't particularly mind. Remy was currently in front of him applying silver, black, and white eyeshadow.

Remy smirked, "We're going out!!!" Remy was dressed in a white crop top with a gold crown with red letters that read the words "Cheap Queen" that looked like was written and drawn in lipstick with black shorts, netting covering any skin not covered by solid cloth up to his neck. More stylish sunglasses with silver rim shades his silver eyes. Remy was bouncing, "You need to loosen up, and I need to party- so, killing two birds with one stone."
"I do not dance."
"You don't have to. I'm gonna stay by you, you can just sit there and enjoy observing people."
"...Alright."
"Yas, gurl! Remus is joining us, by the way."
Logan vehemently ignored the spark of excitement he felt at that, "Oh- alright."
Remy made no effort to hide his smirk, "The dude's fun, sometimes. Though, he can be a little much, even for me."
"Really? I find him...interesting. He's crazy, but surprisingly smart when he wants to be."
"He's full of every type of surprise."
"There's a method to his madness..."
"Hm, I'm more interested in his brother. Now that I know he's not actually a homophobe or a jerk by choice- he's very hot."
Logan looked at him in the mirror as Remy touched up his own makeup.
"Roman?"
"Yeah. To be honest, I'm surprised you and Deceit haven't snatched him up, yet. Grateful, though."
"Yeah, no. Those two are my friends. Platonic works for us, and it's comfortable."
"Hey babes, I a'int complaining. Like I said, I'm praying to Dionysus that he's gay, and I so call dibs."
"Greek god? I think Roman would like you. It'll take some time, though."
"I'm down for the long game. It will just make the prize so much more precious."
"He's not an item."
Remy laughed, "That man's eye candy and a treasure. I'll fight for candy rights."
"You don't even know him."
"I don't know half the dudes I've made out with. But don't worry, I'm not gonna do anything serious 'till I get to know him."
"You better not. If you hurt him, there's a whole lot of people willing to return the favor."
"Don't worry. Now, let's talk about your thing for Remus~"
"What?"

The Legion of Nothing
Nick Klein is your average high school geek--if you can still count as average when your grandfather is a retired superhero, and you've been trained in the martial arts by his friend, a mysterious, immortal mercenary. After his grandfather dies, Nick inherits the last version of the Rocket suit, powered armor that allows him to shrug off bullets, smash through walls, and manipulate sound. Along with it comes the base of his grandfather's superhero team including the team's jet and trophies from forty years of fighting criminals and aliens. Together, Nick and his friends, descendants of his grandfather's teammates, attempt to bring back a superhero team that was originally formed during World War 2. Along the way they'll face the normal problems of high school (bullies, homework, and dating), and the less normal problems like supervillians and mysteries leftover from their grandparents' past. As a story, it uses the conventions of all eras of comics from the 1940s on, ranging from serious to silly. If you're hoping for a grim and gritty story, this isn't it. The Legion of Nothing first debuted on my website legionofnothing.com in 2007. In that period it's updated more than 900 times, is still running, and has had millions of pageviews. The first two years have been released as an ebook, receiving good reviews on Amazon and Goodreads. I hope you'll enjoy it, and that you'll review it and comment. You can also vote for it on Top Web Fiction and rate it on Web Fiction Guide. Member of The Order of Phantasmal Architects.
