“Trouble is, my story is his story […] I have to squeeze in around the edges of him.” —Paige Embry (aka Not-Gwen Stacy)

oh this was so good. valente’s diction is so so so chewy i don’t know how else to describe it. honestly this would be 5 stars, but not-mera’s story didn’t do much for me. also, the inclusion of not-harley quinn also confuses me because she is like . . . not a fridged girl? but i highly enjoyed this nonetheless. very meta, very witty, very voicey. delicious!
