    Summary

    After returning from Paris, Belly finally moves into Conrad’s quiet California apartment—where mornings feel slower, nights feel warmer, and loving each other no longer hurts.
    Now, for the first time, they get to just be: cooking together, studying together, fighting over blankets and grocery lists, learning how to build a life without running from it.
    With Jeremiah finding his own peace and becoming part of their story again, Belly and Conrad discover that love can grow gently, steadily, and without fear.
    From moving in, to getting married, to the moment they realize they’re no longer just two but growing into a family, this is their softest season yet.

    Summary

    She never meant to crave another woman.

    Especially not the one who lives next door.

    Between Us is not a story about reckless infidelity, it is about waiting too long, and what desire does when it is finally seen.

    Summary

    …as long as I remember who’s wearing the trousers.

    Anyone can, of course, break cyclical habits. Stop chasing the unavailable, the all consuming high. But you have to want it. You have to commit to it. Otherwise…

    Summary

    What happens when Heaven and Hell are forced to play by the same rules?
    Lucifer Morningstar makes a dangerous bet with Sera: twelve chosen souls will live as powerless humans in Los Angeles for an entire year. Crammed together in a crumbling brick apartment, they must survive the pain and euphoria of the relentless temptations of Earth without committing a single deadly sin.
    One impulsive slip, one lustful kiss, one burst of wrath, and the bet is over.
    With prideful professors, flirtatious artists, grumpy baristas, and perfectly poised good–Samaritans, the real question isn’t who will sin… but how long they can resist.
    Let the countdown begin.

    Summary

    If Will had been paid attention to by the writers, he could've had a really good relationship with Max and Robin.

    In turn, these friendships would have given him the confidence to actually live in Lenora, not just exist there.

    In this fic, Will makes a friend in California, and learns how to be 'Will', instead of 'Will Byers, the kid that disappeared that one time'.

    Purely indulgent for me, but I really do think Will is worth so much more than what is shown, so this follows the life that he could have had.

    ---

    This will see Byers family domesticity and growth, Will getting a makeover, Mike and El having a healthy relationship, Byler endgame, slight Elmax, and the Party being the Party again.

    Summary

    After the horrors that plagued them back in Hawkins, the Byers family have been relocated to stale and sleepy suburbia. A government endorsed fresh start.

    It's new. It's uncanny, almost - clean, quiet, entirely unlike anything they're used to.

    For Will, that’s kinda the whole problem.

    Away from the ghosts of his past, he’s left with an entirely new fight: figuring out who he could have been if he's no longer just the boy who disappeared.

    Here, Will will learn to explore who he truly is away from his trauma. With the space and distance their move invites, maybe - just maybe - he might finally start to believe that he's allowed to want more than just survival.

    Summary

    A year after inheriting Rainbow Lanes, John Allerdyce has gotten good at showing up. He's learned the building, the people in it, the specific way San Francisco's development pressure makes itself known. He's learned Bobby — the real version, the one who doesn't perform for audiences. He's even, cautiously, begun to believe he belongs here.

    Then Remy comes in from next door with a problem that turns into a bowl-a-thon, and John starts to understand that staying isn't something you fall into. It's a decision you make. Over and over. In front of people who are watching.

    Summary

    For obvious reasons, I picked up a tiny Loki action figure from Thor a couple years before I started posting these; in January 2014, I came across a tiny Thor to keep him company. I immediately took a couple stupid pictures of them and then I just...kept doing that, with increasingly elaborate captions and situations, because I really enjoy my stupid pictures and other people have been enjoying them too. I picked up a couple more Lokis and some other MCU action figures too, and sometimes completely unrelated action figures join in (I add tags as they become relevant). The first 60ish chapters are reposts of existing pictures; now that I've got all of those up, I'm just updating when I actually post new photos. Suggestions/ideas are always welcome!

    Summary

    Los Angeles, 1975. When a string of brutal murders begins targeting gay men in downtown LA, Detective Evan “Buck” Buckley is assigned to the case alongside veteran detective Athena Grant.

    The victims have nothing in common—except what they were forced to hide.

    As Buck digs deeper into the city’s shadows, the case leads him straight to Tommy Kinard, a man who doesn’t quite fit the profile… and yet can’t seem to escape it.

    The closer Buck gets to the truth, the harder it becomes to tell where the investigation ends—and something else begins.

    Summary

    You fell in love with Gerard decades ago, when he was nothing but an intern at Cartoon Network and you were a high school student assigned to the office as part of a job shadowing program for the arts. With nearly 25 years of history gone, and not having seen each other since he quit to form the band — will he remember the girl he’d grown fond of and lost touch with all those years ago? Or was it all just a short-lived dream?

    Summary

    En la primavera de 1994, un grupo de surfistas se instala en una casa aislada en Big Sur, en la costa central de California. Allí planean pasar el verano antes de viajar a otro lugar en busca de olas. Pero allí, en aquella cala solitaria, sus caminos se cruzan con el de un surfista de Los Ángeles que debe ser el último ángel de aquella ciudad del demonio. Eso piensa R al verlo, pero eso mismo... ¿no lo ha pensado antes?

    No sabe si ya se habían visto, qué busca él o cuál es su historia. Tan solo sabe que ha llegado en el momento preciso, y en una familia con demasiados vacíos, él es la pieza faltante.
