Summary
"The living room curtain was opened partially, and the room was blue.
Chris was asleep, unaware.
She didn’t want to work herself up too hard about the consequences of what she had just done. The uncertainty of her future, and what it meant as a woman to divorce her husband. It was more common these days, she knew. But it didn’t make it any less of a taboo. She wished she felt some sort of satisfaction. She had done it; she was out. All she had to do was start the car and leave and she was free.
She felt empty, chewed up, and spat back out; the scud on the bottom of someone’s shoe.
I want my brothers, Pony thought to herself.
Pony slipped Chris' sunglasses over her eyes and jammed the keys into the ignition, the car roaring to life with an anguished cry. She peeled out of the driveway, tires squealing, and, without a glance back, barreled down the street towards home"
Or,
Ponygirl Curtis was never cut out to be a housewife, and when Chris takes things too far, she does the impossible and leaves. But sometimes it's more difficult to leave than stay.

Summary
When an ambitious magician sets his sights on the Eye, he doesn’t come for money or spectacle. He comes for recognition.

Summary
With teams run by a small handful of big names, recruitment based almost entirely on who you know, and unchecked interteam dating, the superhero community is practically designed to encourage interpersonal abuse. When a former sidekick comes forward to say that she was abused by her mentor, the entire community has to reckon with the part they may have played—and with the abuses that may still be going unnoticed.
(A story of systems, told through chats, texts, and transcripts.)

Bookmarker's Notes
cannot begin to explain how incredible and fascinating and interesting this look into systemic abuse is, even outside of DC media and on a broader scope
