Summary
Early in Ted’s tenure as coach, Sam and Jamie end up as roommates during an away game. That night Sam discovers Jamie is suicidal after Jamie asks him to sit with him, feeling like he might kill himself if he’s left alone. Jamie thinks Sam will leave him be afterwards, but Sam can’t just let Jamie walk away knowing all this, it wouldn’t be right.
Sam’s attempt to look out for Jamie, even if Jamie thinks it’s not necessary, pushes him to become more confident and assertive, stepping up as a leader. Meanwhile, Jamie is pushed to be more open by Sam refusing to let him go on as if any of this is okay or normal. As their friendship develops, Jamie grapples with his childhood trauma, while Sam works through how he feels about becoming friends with someone who has bullied him in the past, as well as figuring out how to feel about the fact that Ted and Roy are imperfect people too, especially when it comes to how they approach Jamie.

Summary
Roy's already been Jamie's Dom for months the first time he has to act as Club Dom in front of him. He probably shouldn't be surprised when the lad doesn't take it well.
Or: Roy has to help another sub who's dropping, and Jamie throws a strop about it. So much for not telling the rest of the team that he's a sub.

Summary
After the West Ham match leaves him reeling, Ted Lasso finds himself seeking refuge at the Crown and Anchor more often than usual. It's there he meets Betty, a fellow Midwesterner who's traded Ohio for a quiet life pouring pints in Richmond. She's got walls higher than anything Ted's ever seen, the kind of polite distance that feels like home and hurts just the same.
Ted knows what it's like to run from something. He also knows what it's like to be alone in a place that doesn't quite fit, going through the motions while pretending everything's fine. Maybe that's why he can't stop trying to chip away at her careful armor, even when every gentle attempt gets him nowhere.
Betty came to London to disappear. Ted Lasso's never met a person he couldn't eventually reach.
Something's gotta give. It's just a question of when.
A slow burn about two people learning that sometimes the hardest person to let in is the one who understands exactly why you built the walls in the first place. -

Summary
Roy Kent transferred out of Chelsea without so much as a warning, preferring to slink away to third-rate Richmond with his tail between his legs than confront the sundowning of his career. Embittered and disillusioned turned out to be just the frame of mind for encountering a young hustler trying to scam his way into Roy's bank account. Pre-series AU.

Summary
Rebecca leaves Paris after finding the confines of London society stiffling. She isn’t looking for love, she’s looking to have some agency in her future. She never expected to end up here - at the Moulin Rouge.
Ted leaves for Paris, France not Missouri. He wishes to be a writer and there are too many demons in Kansas. Can he find what he needs among the streets of Paris? -

Summary
Ted only signs up for bantr because he's never been able to say no to Keeley; he's got no intention of actually using the app. The last thing he expects is to strike up a friendship with a stranger who doesn't seem to mind that Ted isn't looking for romance. Before long he's getting way too attached, and he doesn't regret it at all.
Jamie signs up for bantr even though he's not sure what he's looking for; Sam made it sound like a good idea, anyways. He has no reason to keep messaging a stranger who's not even looking for a romantic connection. But Jamie finds the guy charming, despite all the bad puns, and it's not long before affection escalates into something a whole lot more distracting.

Grounded For A Week by Phoenyx_Fyre_Writer for rainbowsweaterpaws
Fandoms: Ted Lasso (TV)

Summary
Grounded for a week means grounded for the full week, no exceptions. Which in Jamie’s opinion is totally unfair. He’s almost done his full week anyway, Roy could totally let him off just one day early, what would that even hurt? Jamie’s learnt his lesson, won’t break his curfew or drinking ban again, swear down. Roy is just being an unfair arsehole! Especially when he leaves Jamie alone for the evening.

Summary
Sequel to 'We'll All Be Here Forever', picking up where the story left off so reading that one first is advised.
After Rebecca finds out she's pregnant, she feels a lot of things, she wants to be happy and excited, but there's a lot to worry about too. There's so much that can go wrong and after all the good things that have happened to her lately, she isn't sure if the universe will give her anything else. Ted, on the other hand, wants to stay on the side of hope, as he always does and with a bit of reassurance, she wants to do that too.
With a pregnancy, running a football team, having Henry living in England, being around their friends and having Effie, Harriet and Rosie move over life is getting rather busy for Ted and Rebecca and honestly, they wouldn't have it any other way, because they've got each other.
Ted and Rebecca continue on their journey healing from old wounds whilst being with the people they love the most as their family is about to get bigger.

Summary
Roy has noticed that Jamie and Maggie have been spending a lot of time together. Which is fine because they’re fucking adults and they can do whatever the fuck they want. But it makes him worry. Because Maggie is fucking good at her job, Roy respects her a lot, and if she and Jamie got… involved and things ended badly, he would hate for the club to lose her.
Yes, that’s why something uncomfortable stirs in him when he hears both of them giggling like kids in the treatment room. It can be so hard to find a good physio.
When a new physio starts working at AFC Richmond and she accidently lets slip her dislike for Zava, Jamie is expecting to become fast friends with her. What he's not expecting is for Maggie to clock his feelings for Roy so quickly. Shenanigans ensue.or, OC takes these two idiots and goes 'now kith'
