Why this must be read: So we've had some angst and all that sad stuff. Let's take a trip back in time to when everything was much... wait, this is Ultimate X-Men, which means life started out shitty for the X-Men and has only gone downhill from there.

Peter has a huge crush on Wolverine. Peter is gay. These are facts in the Ultimate universe that I'm sure even the most ardent fanboys must concede. What's interesting about this story is the way that azurine takes that piece of canon and shows us this whole other side to both Wolverine and Peter.

Peter's desire for acceptance and Wolverine and his coming to grips with his feelings is beautiful. Wolverine, so strong and brave and even though he doesn't really speak, the fact that he let's Peter take care of him speaks volumes. This is Ultimate X-Men to the core. So bleak and heartwrenching.
