tocryabout"Legal Age Life at Dépanneur" is up. It's a long one, at 8,500 words, but it has an explosion in it.
[Read from the beginning.]
I should mention (somewhere, anyway) that I'm using the Ultimate version of Jean-Paul's backstory, more or less -- I find it more believable than the Alpha Flight version, especially since we really don't have violent separatistes anymore. Jeanne-Marie and Jean-Paul have been separated since the death of their parents, but Jean-Paul was adopted by the Martins while Jeanne-Marie was sent to Madame DuPont's.

(Martin sometimes spins it otherwise, claiming that the boss thought he and Dave were gay, but I think the homeless kid is a more likely cause for his getting the axe.)
