    Summary

    For the story Through Crooked Aim by @heartsmadeofbooks

    I wanted to draw a moment like this the whole time I was reading this story. Even from the beginning, I knew this moment would come someday. And here it is! For Halloween!!
    You can't see it, but Kurt and Blaine are holding hands behind Allegra's back.

    Summary

    Shaking hands tugged the collar of his ratty trenchcoat higher, fingers already numb from the pouring rain soaking him to the bone.

    The mud tacked onto his boots forced him to skid, a grunt leaving him as he was sent tumbling to the ground. “Shit!-” his palms ached from colliding onto the rough tarmac, tiny stones lodging themselves into his skin.

    He felt heat rush to the wounded area, a low throb working its way through his hands as he felt a familiar ache in his ankle. It was the same pain that taunted him when he twisted his leg during gym.

    Mud coated the palms of his hands as he scrambled to push himself back up, ignoring the sting in his leg as he limped forwards, trying to move as quickly as possible.

    or

    Wilbur runs away and manages to seek refuge in a diner. The owner lets him stay but Wil can't help but feel that he's a little... off.

    Summary

    A bright smile spreads across their face. With venom laced on their tongue, Q hisses sweetly, “And what’s your name for the order?”

    Something in the way Q speaks rattles Wilbur to his core. He can’t decide if he wants to make a run for it or lay down his life for the diner employee. Static floods his mind, and his hands go limp at his sides.

    His brain fights against the walls of his skull, and Wilbur blinks away the haze from behind his eyes. He takes a moment to glance around and ground himself in reality once more. Remembering the question, Wilbur turns back to Q and answers with the most charming smile he can muster, “Ah, I don’t really remember. Call me what you like.”

    OR

    Wilbur is a vampire and forgets he's a vampire. Well, actually, he forgets who he is.

    Quackity is a fae who's more than a little curious about this weird "mortal" who doesn't know his own name.

    Summary

    “Do you like it?” He asked, doing a little twist in his hips to show off more of the outfit.

    Kai’s jaw, which had been smack bang on the floor, stuttered into forming a sentence, “Wh–what–why–how? How are you working with that thing on?”

    Beomgyu pursed his lips, staring directly into his soul as he ripped his arms off his shoulders, flailing them around like an understimulated kid, “Velcro. I’m not actually trapped. Just getting good use of the costume.”

    Narrowing his eyes, Kai nodded, “Right, and why exactly are you dressed up like this?”

    “Because,” he shoved his face in front of Kai’s, their noses touching, ”I’m crazy for you.”

     

    OR

     

    Kai's boyfriends are wilder than he thought.

    Summary

    “vincent.”

    slowly looking up from his lap, vincent meets the eyes of the person calling his name. a man, presumably in his thirties. his auburn hair is loosely slicked back with a small amount of product, getting slightly longer as it goes down the nape of his neck. his eyes are a soft, muted shade of green, and he has two moles on the apple of his left cheek. his expression is firm, not intimidating or overly cheerful. that is, until he flashes a small smile at him.

    vincent’s eyes quickly avert. the man drops the smile in confusion.

    “…please follow me into my office.”

    Summary

    Tyler has his routine down to a science: piano lessons, minimum-wage shifts at the movie theater and diner, and just enough sarcasm to keep people at arm’s length. He wears masks for every role, and none of them are really him.

    Except maybe a physical mask and an anonymous voice behind raw, unfiltered music.

    Josh is new in town, somehow orbiting all the same places Tyler tries to disappear into, and worse, he seems genuinely interested.

    Summary

    “You keep following me and I'll have to assume you're a stalker,” you teased Tim as the two of you rounded the corner towards your new apartment building.

    The overhead street lamp flickered, and save for the confused frown, his expression remained placid. “That's not a very nice assumption to make of a co-worker. Maybe I'll have to consult the manager.”

    He wouldn't. It was the first job he'd managed to keep longer than a month. You seemed to know he was bluffing, because you only laughed.

    Finally, he admitted: "I live here, too.”

    “Really?” you mused. “What a coincidence."


    It had been one coincidence after another with Timothy Wright. Count one— he lived in the same apartment complex you had moved into. And double whammy! He was also from Sacramento.

    Triple whammy— he resembled the masked man who frequented your apartment.

    Summary

    It’s summer 1978. Dean Winchester is twenty-three and fresh out of prison, ready to establish a life he’d never gotten a chance to start. He arrives in Copper Creek, Wisconsin, hoping to reconnect with his brother Sam after five years apart. He soon meets a mysterious man who lives alone in the woods and has his own secrets to hide. Neither set out to befriend the other but it happens anyway, almost without them realizing it.

    Inspired by “The Spitfire Grill”, this is the story of two damaged men, each with a troubled past, who are trying to figure out how to start over. But they won’t have to do it alone. Not only do they now have each other, but they have the close-knit community of Copper Creek and a little diner called The Spitfire Grill.

    Summary

    "Do you think all of her dates know that Lucy only comes here for the root beer floats?"

    Schroeder shrugged, his eyes still on the dark-haired girl as she talked to her current flavour of the week, waving her hands around in that over exaggerated way she usually did and making the bastard laugh.

    "How should I know?"

    "Aren't you her waiter?"

    "Always."
