Cold Open

As soon as he closed the front door, Matt Everything felt like something was wrong.

“Andy?” He called out, looking around their cozy abode. Andy Nowhere, his partner, was supposed to be home today. He said he planned on simply relaxing after the stress of some big incident across town.

So where was his part-time hero, part-time actor boyfriend?

None of their knick-knacks looked out of place. The television wasn't on, nor was the shower, from what he could hear.

The fridge hummed as he passed it, putting down the grocery bags on the countertop. He scanned the front of the device. If Andy had been called to the studio, he would've left a note.

“Andy?” Matt repeated. He wasn't worried, really. Andy was a notorious napper. Reminded him of his Nana's cat Glovey, in a way. Same black-and-white dress sense, too. Same indigo eyes to add a splash of color. No detailed mask on the cat, though.

The groceries could wait.

Matt headed down the hall toward their shared bedroom, passing by the guest bed and bath. No sign of a disturbance there, either.

He didn't understand why he was being so hyper-vigilant, anyway. It's not like they've had problems with say, fans, before. They were relatively small-time children's show actors. The most they got were people at conventions asking how much they played up their rivalry.

He remembered the last time someone asked that, and Andy has simply responded by kissing Matt in front of the panel goers.

It had certainly felt electric. Then the power had gone out, supposedly because of some witch coven shenanigans at the other con at that time at that place.

When he reaches their room, he finds it - Great Earth Mother.

He expected to find it in its usual mostly tip-top shape, spare the bed.

Their various accolades (not many, mind you) laid on the floor. The bed was a mess, not an unusual sight, if it wasn't for the blood staining the mattress.

Matt raced to the other side - Andy's side of the bed - to find his boyfriend torn open, but still willing himself alive.

“Andy.” Matt's voice cracked, falling to Andy's side, grabbing the bed sheets off the bed - he recalled that Andy had picked these out when they got this place - and put pressure on the massive wound on his lower abdomen.

To think, he, as Matt Everything, actor of everything and anything, played an EMT once on his starring show, about two years ago, if he's right. Before he and Andy.

To think that now, years later, he'd be playing the part again, sort of, in real life, well… unthinkable, if it wasn't reality. The absurd one that they live in.

He yanked out his phone, dialing 000, the Jenkinsville emergency line, to be met with the cheery voice of some nice lady.

“Hi, Jenkinsville Emergency Services, what is your emergency?”

“My boyfriend's been stabbed in our house at 209 Nightsky Street. Please come quick.”

Andy's beautiful indigo eyes fluttered open. Matt's kaleidoscopic eyes met his.

Andy was alive. He would stay alive.

His eyes distracted him from the call.

“Excuse me?” She said. “What are your names?”

“I'm Matt Everything. My partner is Andy Nowhere.”

He could've sworn the lady on the end would've cooed if not for the situation. “An ambulance is on its way.”

“Thank you.” Matt exhaled, letting out the breath he'd been holding.

He kept pressure on the wound, as she asked if he was. “Of course I am.”

He paused, “Sorry if that sounded rude, I-”

“It's okay, Mr. Everything.” She assured him. “The ambulance should be arriving in two minutes.”

From the background of the call, he heard someone call out, “May Marvelinous?”

“On call, sir.” The woman who had answered his call responded. “Someone should call Farthingston.”

“What, why?” Matt asked, trying to pick through his memories for that name. Farthingston? Like Endrew Farthingston, “Drewtective”, the most famous and successful detective in Jenkinsville?

“The Mask of Indigo case.” May answered. “They're on it.”

“Why do you suspect this is involved?”

“Mr. Nowhere's eyes, Mr. Everything. His indigo eyes.”

A small experimental and messy comic about the queer hate to queer pipeline that seems to affect a lot of people, and since it’s pride month and I don’t see a lot of artistic commentary on this…here you go? I’m a baby gay, not even able to legally drink yet and only recently realized my sexuality so I’m sure there’s people who have suffered from being raised in bigotry much longer and much worse and I’m willing for this post to be the place they can share their stories! I’d be honored to hear stories from people like me. Happy pride month!

(Writers Note for page two- I am aware of sexualities that stem from trauma like Caedsexual exist and are 100% valid! I am referring to the belief that ALL under the LGBTQ+ umbrella are sick and are just ‘confused victims of abuse’ in a not so nice sense.)

A year ago I made some silly Trigun fanart that brought all the bigots out of the woodworks, so I told them that everything I draw is gay, including Space Cat. And now he has a boyfriend, welcome Rainbow Cat! 🌈

Happy Pride Month! It’s my first year celebrating and I decided I wanted to make an asexual cake! With the help of my extremely perfectionist mum, I think we managed to pull it off! I hope ya’ll are having an awesome pride month, whether you’re out, in the closet or somewhere in between 🏳️‍🌈
