Summary
Buck had always known people leave. Ex-girlfriends, friends, broken promises—he’d lost count. But when Eddie announces his plan of going to El Paso, something inside Buck shatters in a different way. He does what it takes, until one day, he can’t take it anymore. With no plan, no fixed destination, just a backpack and an endless road ahead, Buck decides to escape the pain the only way he knows: by running. But the farther he travels, the more he finds himself confronted by memories, the ghosts of what he’s lost, and one unexpected question: is he running toward a new home or simply running from the fear that he never truly had one?
Eddie never hesitated when it came to his son. Christopher was his compass, his greatest reason to keep fighting, and when he gets tired of having his son away, Eddie doesn’t think twice before leaving everything behind—including Buck. El Paso takes him through unfamiliar roads and a journey that isn’t just about repairing his relationship with his son, but about finding himself. In the midst of chaos, worry, and missing his life in Los Angeles, Eddie realizes that maybe his feelings for Buck have always been deeper than he was willing to admit.

Summary
In the end, it doesn’t matter. None of it fucking matters. Because what’s really in control is the tension. This elusive string tied between their chests that’s always changing length. Right now it’s so short and taught and strong that Will can’t imagine resisting it. So really, it was never a matter of if he would. Just when. When will he fold? When will he let go and let himself follow Mike into the water?
He dares to glance down at his knees, where he can see Mike’s fingers peeking out from behind his calves (as if he needed that visual reminder that they’re touching), and then back up to meet Mike’s expectant gaze.
He’s going to do it. He’s such a fucking idiot.
OR
Mike & Will have a long overdue conversation on the way back to Hawkins— by, in, and around a random motel pool.

Summary
There are spaces where devotion does not reach.
In Arcadia, where gods are attended and silence is law, a Dream-Recorder learns to listen for what goes unspoken. When war fractures the land and faith begins to fail, their path crosses with Vessel— a man bound to Sleep, taught to rule through distance and restraint.
Between rituals and records, still water and withheld hands, something fragile takes shape. Not rebellion. Not worship. But recognition.
This is a story about what survives belief, about leaving without erasure, and about the quiet mercy of choosing one another in the space between attendance.

Summary
This is what had always been most treacherous about the Forsaken One--people are usually acclimated to its presence, long before they’re sacrificed to it. Loneliness isn’t the experience of finding yourself the only person in an empty room. Most of the time, people feel loneliness like a habit. Sometimes, there’s no reason for it all.

Summary
“What is your favorite color?”
It’s a simple question, the kind people ask to break the ice, to start a conversation without thinking too hard about it. But what if Ricky doesn’t have an answer because he cannot see any?
For as long as he can remember, the world has been made of darkness and light. Black, white, and grey. A life lived in monochrome, where color exists everywhere except in his vision. He understands it in theory, memorizes it, learns its rules and metaphors—but knowing has never been the same as seeing. No matter how well he understands it, color has always remained something he cannot truly grasp.
Once, he was called a defect. Someone different. Someone not quite normal. All Ricky has ever wanted was to fit in—but belonging is difficult in a world he cannot fully understand, a world that has never quite understood him in return.
But what if color isn’t only something you see?
What if emotions carry hues of their own. What if, one day, he sees blue—and realizes that change is possible. That opening himself up to the world might also open his heart, and in doing so, slowly color everything he sees.

Summary
From closer, it’s clear that Minho is about his age. He’s handsome— very much so— in an untouchable sort of way. Straight nose, sharp eyes, a defined cupid’s bow. He looks sculpted rather than born. Jisung might shrink under the weight of his presence if the situation were different.
Knowing that Minho is dying ruins the illusion of perfection.
Jisung answers an ad online reading: "I'm going to die, but there's a lot of things I haven't done yet that I don't want to do alone."

Summary
Ahsoka Tano had made her decision. She'd leave the Jedi Order, and there was nothing her Master could say that would convince her otherwise. She'd lost all the trust she'd once harbored for the Order. And for herself. The only thing she still trusted to guide her was the Force. So, when the Force suddenly started pushing against the decision she had made for herself, Ahsoka saw no other choice, but to go against her every instinct and stay with an Order she no longer felt like she belonged with.
Commander Fox had survived just fine without a Jedi general for years. He didn't need the help of a Force wielder, and neither did he want it at this point. So, when the Jedi suddenly forced a general upon him after years of fighting alone for the wellbeing of his troops, Fox doesn't know what to think. Other than that he really doesn't trust General Ahsoka Tano to do right by his boys.

Summary
Eddie’s a steady man who likes predictability. He buys the same beer all the time, the same shirts just in different colors, the same type of mulch for the garden every year.
But the thing is, Chris is starting high school in two weeks, and Bobby has been floating the idea of retirement around more and more. Chim and Maddie are expecting a second baby, and Pepa and Abuela have been talking of looking for a new home for Abuela soon.
And then there’s the promotion and the transfer, and it’s all just a bit much for Eddie to handle.
But he spins the silicone ring on his finger, smiling down at it while the heat of Buck’s thigh presses carefully into his own. At least that’s something that isn’t changing.

to call a tin heart home by jollyswoosh
Fandoms: The Amazing Digital Circus (Web Series)
08 Feb 2025
Tags
Summary
“No matter how dreary and gray our homes are, we people of flesh and blood would rather live there than in any other country, be it ever so beautiful. There is no place like home."
~*~Cracks are starting to show in the Circus, things and people breaking, glitching, corrupting. The code is tangled and the threads are loose. Pomni finds herself wandering the yellow brick road, looking for answers, accompanied by a reluctant Tin Man who has more heart than he wants to admit and knows more than he's willing to say. There's much to discover behind the curtain, and Pomni must find a way to pull it open if she ever wants to see past the rainbow again.
~*~
“I think you are wrong to want a heart. It makes most people unhappy. If you only knew it, you are in luck not to have a heart."-

Summary
"Oh fuck," They hiss once they're close enough, and there are suddenly a pair of hands on him, touching his face with trembling fingers and ghosting over the space on his chest that isn't impaled by the debris, "Oh fuck. Damian! Damian, can you hear me? Shit. Shit."
It suddenly dawns on him — Damian is trapped and he's going to die with Jason Todd.
Somehow, this has become marginally worse than simply dying alone.
(After a warehouse explosion, Damian is trapped under rubble. He only wishes he was trapped alone.)
