Summary
While the rest of his siblings were excited by the Umbrella Academy's first public appearance, Ben was still too traumatized by the things inside his body and what they'd done to the robbers. His father ordered him and Klaus to do extra training as punishment for their poor performance; he couldn't disobey his father, but he also couldn't possibly face the horrors inside himself another time that day. Fortunately, Klaus was more comfortable with disobedience.

Summary
I enjoyed Agatha's POV, and wanted her to have a chance to find out about Simon and Baz and to tell her old friends what she really had been feeling all those years. So, I decided to write my own version in which she does!
In 3rd person, because 1st person narration is not really my area. I anticipate 3 relatively short, self-contained but connected stories. All will be rated T for swearing and occasional mature topics. I am American, so American slang and misspelling may occasionally (or frequently) appear, but I'll do my best to fix them where noted. Concrits and Brit-picks much appreciated!

Or: Susie plays Calvinball with Death.

Summary
“Tater?” Alexei raised his eyebrows as he shook Kent’s hand. “You are a hockey fan?”
“Oh,” Kent felt his face go red. He hadn’t actually known about the nickname until he’d stalked his Instagram, but he wasn’t about to explain all that. “Yeah, a bit. Sorry. I’ll call you Alexei from now on.”
Alexei clapped him on the shoulder, and Kent thought absently that the women would love him—he was a touchy kind of guy, apparently. “No, this is good. A fan. You can keep calling me Tater.”
