Buon lunedì, prodi seguaci!🏹

Questa settimana è la settimana della consapevolezza dello spettro aromantico, quindi il piano è di scrivere di libri in tema. A cominciare da quello che sto leggendo adesso, Not your sidekick di C.B. Lee, primo libro di una serie.

“I’m gonna go see if he’s okay,” Emma says. “I feel like I should apologize, but I’m not really sure what for. Like how is me finding Chameleon cute different than Starscream or Copycat?”

Jess brushes through her hair as she thinks. She ties her hair in a ponytail as Emma watches her. Great, Emma knows all her tells; she probably thinks Jess knows something.

Jess has suspected for a while that Bells has feelings for Emma, who crushes on a new person almost every week. Her focus is intense but fleeting, and she always wants to talk about them. It’s only lately that Jess has noticed that Bells gets a withdrawn, resigned look whenever Emma talks about a crush, except a crush on celebrities or superheroes. Maybe Bells doesn’t care about Starscream and Copycat because they are older and unattainable, but he’s upset because Chameleon is their age?

“Maybe you guys should just hang out and talk about it,” Jess suggests.

Emma nods. “That’s a good idea. See you around, Jess.”

Welcome to Andover… where superpowers are common, but internships are complicated. Just ask high school nobody, Jessica Tran. Despite her heroic lineage, Jess is resigned to a life without superpowers and is merely looking to beef-up her college applications when she stumbles upon the perfect (paid)! internship—only it turns out to be for the town’s most heinous supervillain. On the upside, she gets to work with her longtime secret crush, Abby, who Jess thinks may have a secret of her own. Then there’s the budding attraction to her fellow intern, the mysterious “M,” who never seems to be in the same place as Abby. But what starts as a fun way to spite her superhero parents takes a sudden and dangerous turn when she uncovers a plot larger than heroes and villains altogether.
