Sidebars are stories set in the Spy vs. Spook/Mann of My Dreams universe. The stories are told from the point of views of Nigel Mann, Bryan Sebring, Jack Matheson (Wills’s dad), a pair of jeans, Michael Shaw, and finally, Wills himself.
Contains the stories:
Solo Tu: Nigel Mann, known as the CIA’s own Mr. Freeze, and Portia Sebring, the Ice Princess of the NSA, might seem like a match made in the Arctic, but it’s exactly what Anthony Sebring wants for his daughter. This story takes place in 1958.
Chasing Rainbows: Bryan Sebring tells the story of how he and his “one” finally get together.
How to Handle a Gay Son: Jack Matheson learns his beloved oldest son is gay, and we see how he handles it.
The Lick Me, Suck Me, F**k Me Jeans: Wills’s jeans explains how his owner becomes pretty much irresistible while wearing him.
Where Have You Been, Willie Boy?: Michael Shaw has been William Matheson’s best friend since they met in the sixth grade. Things change when they start college, helped along by those lick me, suck me, f**k me jeans Wills had been given for a birthday present. But Michael isn’t gay, and he won’t let anyone label him as queer, not even for his best friend. But will his determination drive away the one man he values above all others?
Into the Lion’s Den: The first of Wills Matheson’s stories. We see his relationship with Michael Shaw, with his family, and eventually with the WBIS and Mark Vincent, who becomes his boss.
