So the lack of updates on my part has been because my week had been devoted to school work–socially boring to talk about but necessary for my own survival. However this is not to imply that the drama has stopped. On the contrary, kids! There’s a wonderful amount of gossip, suspicion, and slutiness circulating in the heroes lives and thank the heavens for it. I mean, what’s life without a little drama? So, for our hump day, a slight summary of the most recent event

  1. The Nightcrawler and Electro drama hasn’t ended but is certainly slowing. Nightcrawler has sent multiple “I miss you :-( ” texts with little response on my part, but they seemed to have stopped now. Most recently, Electro has slipped a CD under my door in a possible act of apology. What’s unfortunate is that the CD was labeled “this is me right now” and contains songs like Lamb, Nobody’s Perfect, and Try. Sounds like it’s a little bit about Electro, hmm? The verdict is still out as to whether or not I feel any sympathy.
  2. Our wonderful Captain has returned from his stint with communism. Glad to see you’re back and enjoying the American way (and food).
  3. Yes, I hooked up with a boy from Suite. And he’s really pretty hot. Having been dubbed Magnum XL (you get one guess as to how he got the nickname), we’ve met up twice and its been equally hot both times. Legs were going in different directions and fun was had by all. By all I mean two. This time.
  4. Our friend Prodigy is so amazing that he’s been awarded a huge scholarship. It’s kind of a big deal. Now, HT, what was that about a sex pact…?
  5. I found out about the little Nightcrawler/Electro scandal from a friend/former date of mine named Longshot (again, only one guess) who I’ve talked to a few times since then. Although I wouldn’t give much thought to it, interestingly enough Electro has posted on his Facebook wall a suspicious remark about someone who he’s talking to and is interested in. Give it a check boys. Is it about little ol’ GL? Let’s hope. I really want to have sex with him. AND HE’S NICE TOO! Okay. Maybe not. But still. Sex.

And with that simple summary, hump day is a thorough success. Well, I suppose we’d all have to find some humping to do to make it a true success. Lemme go look up Magnum’s number…

One Night Only

17Mar07

The title is in reference to The Dreamgirls movie and Broadway show. The lyrics are symbolic of the night Green Lantern and The Human Torch had. Perhaps the best night of an otherwise ick-worthy Spring Break, full of crushing heartbreak and an absent Captain Mid-America.

You want all my love and my devotion
You want my loving soul right on the line
I have no doubt that I could love you forever
The only trouble is, I really, really don’t have the time
You’ve got one night only, one night only
That’s all I have to spare
One night only, let’s not pretend to care

[ our one night continues after the jump... ]


“Manevery manis an end in himself, not a means to the ends of others; he must live for his own sake, neither sacrificing himself to others nor sacrificing others to himself; he must work for his rational self-interest, with the achievement of his own happiness as the highest moral purpose of his life” - Ayn Rand

The Morningside Boys are proud–nay, elated, to announce The Biggest Douche Award, a new MB feature thanks to the drama that unfolded this week that could have just as easily been ripped from the pages of a cheap gay novel.

And the Winner(s) for this week are….

A tie! Between Electro and Nightcrawler. The heroes couldn’t decide where to place the blame on this time so the first Biggest Douche award will be divided among our vile, venomous duo!

What hath Electro and Nightcrawler done to deserve this notorious accolade? Why, they slept together, unbeknownst (but not for long) to Green Lantern. Our villain’s motivations are unclear, but perhaps it is due to Electro’s identification with the values of the objectivism movement, propagated by capitalist-bitch/”philosopher” Ayn Rand. We knew Electro’s hedonistic, philandering and libertine ways had to catch up with him eventually, we at Morningside Boys wish him many happy returns as his ignoble 22nd year of life approaches on the horizon.  The Big Douche award is presented to Electro by Brian Kinney of Queer As Folk. To the rest of the boys in Morningside, stay away from this lecherous gutless Southern wonder. Trust those in the know, Electro’s bolts aren’t all that they’re hyped-up to be and leaves much, much to be desired. Don’t say The Boys didn’t warn you: The get-down will be a let-down.

Nightcrawler gets the other half of this Big Douche award, and it is presented by none other than former-president Bill Clinton himself, for the masterful strategy Nightcrawler employed in attempting to escape Green Lantern’s wrath unscathed. Green Lantern initially confronted Nightcrawler, who tried denying it outright. But alas, Nightcrawler’s slippery teleportation tactics and mental strategem was no match for Green Lantern’s vision and insight into Nightcrawler’s Heart of Darkness. When Nightcrawler realized his defeat was imminent, he did an about-face and admitted his dastardly deeds outright, but still refused to accept any responsibility or guilt in the matter. Nightcrawler, we salute you and wish you luck among the shady backrooms of New York City’s gay underworld.

A strange turn of events has Electro sleeping in my room after being accosted by the cleaning lady for sleeping in the common room of his suite. He’s sleeping there because his dad and his dad’s girlfriend are sleeping in his room. I’m missing CA already and I’m glad to have put some cuddling time in with GL. It was strange seeing Electro this morning, knowing much of what went on in his weekend, and knowing he didn’t know about mine. For the curious, Electro went to a downtown club with two twinky boys from NYU, and tried to have a foursome with Mr. Fantastic, who, all-wise and knowing as he is, knew better and stayed away.

My heart goes out to Green Lantern in this trying time. In the meantime, he and I will hold down the Justice League (aka Morningside Heights) until Captain Mid-America gets back from his diplomatic errand of mercy in China. Hopefully, he hasn’t caused an international incident yet, but it’s only Tuesday and Morningside Boys’ weeks last longer than everyone else’s.

I get out of work at 1:30, and I’m wondering what to do with myself for the afternoon. Make trouble, I guess. Till then…

“So… How was it?” HT lasciviously inquired. Clearly he was looking for a sordid answer, something along the lines of, We’ve been fucking nonstop for the past two hours and I can barely walk, omigod. Unfortunately for him and myself, that was not the case.

“It wasn’t,” I replied, visibly annoyed. “He was too drunk to even get it up.”

After HT gave me a sympathetic look, I announced that I planned to break up with Nightcrawler in the morning. Sitting six floors up in a common lounge, CA, HT, and I discussed the latest transgressions brought against my current boyfriend. I recounted to them how he had stumbled his way to my room just awhile ago and undeniably wanted to have sex, indicated by the groping and kissing and sweet and sexy words he had slurred.

In a World…

10Mar07

We begin our story on an unseasonably warm spring break, late in the afternoon, as our boys wake up and rub the dust from their eyes. Our Gotham campus is teeming with pigeons, teenagers at a High School conference and hungover Columbia students recovering from the night before. Among them, yours truly, the Human Torch, who wakes up next to Electro, the Green Lantern wakes up next to Nightcrawler and Captain America wakes up alone, just the way he’s always liked it. Brunch at Deluxe followed by a journey to the Lincoln Center Barnes and Noble. Yours truly buys three CDs, the Jersey Boys, Regina Spektor and Sufjan Stevens and a DVD of Jesus Christ Superstar. Afterwards we all head to our headquarters and study, sacrificing ourselves to the gods of pedagogy.
