Wrap It Up
As we start to wrap up the year, we come to you with Wrap It Up: An AO3 Tag Exchange!
This will be similar to our summer switcheroo event, with a few fun twists; instead of exchanging prompts, participants will be exchanging ao3 tags. The author can take their given tags in any direction they choose (as long as it loosely fits the winter vibes theme)!
Also, this will be an anonymous exchange: you’ll post anonymously and gift to your prompter, and reveals will take place after all fics have been posted.

Summary
“Are you telling me we've had crushes on each other this entire time?” Alex can’t stop himself from breaking into a fit of hysterical laughter. Of course Henry doesn’t hate him, of course the explanation is that he and his roommate have identical crushes on each other. This lonely and stressful semester has been the product of the most ridiculous misunderstanding—a comedy of errors, if you will.
Or, Alex gets a migraine after finishing his finals, and much to his confusion, Henry takes care of him.

Summary
Henry is a world-class skier, a terrible liar, and absolutely incapable of asking for help. Sure, he insists he's fine. Completely, absolutely fine. Never mind that he's somehow managed to go even paler than usual (a feat Alex didn't think possible), how each movement is too measured and careful. Alex should walk away. After all, Henry has never needed help from anyone—least of all him. But when it comes to Henry, Alex has never been able to look the other way.

Summary
Henry's first year at uni has been going categorically well. Something not too typical for him, truly. There's been one small hiccup, though. It's the tragically handsome boy he met in his first semester, who continues to plague him even into the winter semester. He pines endlessly, but it's all for naught, isn't it?

Summary
Alex Claremont-Diaz thought that getting stranded in the airport due to a winter storm would be the bad end to an even worse semester. Little did he know that Henry Fox - his summer fling, the one that got away, the possible love of his life - would be stuck in the exact some position, and that he'd be more than happy to reminisce.
If one thing leads to another and exes turn into lovers and a bottle of wine turns into a hotel room with only one bed then, well, that's just the name of the game.

Summary
So, really, Alex can hardly be blamed when he reaches out to grab Henry's arm when he's passing behind Alex's spot at the bar.
“Hey, what the fuck is your problem?”
And when Henry looks from his hand, to his arm, to his face, he thinks he's maybe a bit in over his head.
And when Henry finally meets Alex's gaze. Well. Alex wishes he had something a little stronger than caffeine.
“I beg your pardon?”
Fuck.
