    Summary

    "So far, Andrew’s heard the song on piano, cello, acoustic guitar, a goddamn bassoon, and even whistled across the crowded dining hall yesterday - which made Andrew immediately stand and search for the culprit, but to no such luck.

    This thing isn’t original. It belongs to something. Someone wrote it, put it out into the world, and Andrew missed it.

    Two weeks of this. Two weeks of hearing the same lyric-less melody echo through rehearsal rooms, courtyards, open windows. Two weeks of his perfect memory turning up nothing. No title. No composer. No words to match that achingly melancholy, and yet smiling beat.

    It’s taunting him.

    Andrew has been cursed, and he is going to find out by what song if it’s the last thing he does.

    And no, that is not overdramatic. It’s just a fact."

    Summary

    Eve was not the best person in the world. Sometimes she didn’t hold the elevator open when she saw people rushing to catch it from the other side of the lobby. Cutting the line at Starbucks was a semi-regular action.

    But Eve did not deserve to be Neil fucking Josten's publicist.

    **********

    Or, the one where Neil does what he wants, picks fights with reporters, discovers Twitter, breaks the internet, and really shouldn't be allowed out of his house.

    Andrew does nothing to discourage him.

    Summary

    The main story is going to be about Neil and Andrew, 10 years after the end of the series, fostering and then adopting two kids; that story is currently 140k and still going. I'll start posting it once I'm sure I'm done making changes to the first few chapters. Until then, here's some backstory.

    Summary

    If Andrew had met Neil today, at the ripe age of twenty-five, when the dark is just the dark and not a threat, and when he doesn’t need to balance on rooftops to feel things anymore - maybe things would be different.

    Maybe better than okay.

    But he didn’t meet Neil today - he met him seven years ago as Aaron’s new friend, when the word "want" was a foreign body in his mouth, and so things are just okay.

    He is okay, and he is in love with his best friend, who isn't in love with him, and it is okay.

    Summary

    It’s not until they’re standing between trees, basket swinging from Neil’s elbow, that Andrew wishes he’d worn shoes with taller platforms. One inch, apparently, is not enough extra inches.

    Or, Andrew and Neil go apple picking.

    Summary

    Neil's been on his feet for the last thirty-six hours. His leg is aching, his interns are all idiots, his charge nurse thinks he should've gone home hours ago, but Neil can't bring himself to leave the knowing chaos of the ER.

    He tells himself he'll see one more patient. One more, then he'll clock out.

    Except, Neil's last patient of the day turns out to be a professional exy player, who's just punched another doctor, might be hiding some knives, and seems determined to notice everything Neil is trying to hide.

    And, well - maybe Neil doesn't want to hide from one Andrew Minyard.

    OR

    Neil is an emergency physician and Andrew is a pro exy player who keeps finding himself in Neil's ER. Oblivious flirting ensues.

    Kevin's there too. Just...being Kevin.

    Summary

    The witch’s hut is small and simple. It’s an embrace of a room, cozy corners and softly scalloped log walls chinked with white clay. Garlands of flowers and herbs festoon the ceiling, some fresh, some wilted, many dried. Shallow shelves full of jars and bottles line one wall. The bed is shoved against another. A small round table with three chairs just fits between. A cauldron of water perpetually simmers on the wood stove, ready for spellwork or tea.

    Summary

    This conversation requires an emotional finesse David doesn’t possess. He tries anyway. It’s not part of the job description, but David’s never been able to hold that line of separation in his head. It’ll all kill him early, he knows. The booze and the smoking and the endless parade of messed up kids. Too bad he’s no good at quitting.

    Andrew's in Nashville. Neil's in Palmetto. They're both well-practiced in surviving alone. 
    But now, it's Wymack's problem.

    Summary

    Neil didn’t mean to steal a car belonging to a local gang, and he certainly didn’t mean to steal the gang’s getaway driver, Kevin Day, along with it.

    Unfortunately for Neil, Andrew Minyard doesn’t care why he stole the car (or Kevin), just that he knew how to drive it - and honestly, who made Kevin the getaway driver, anyway?

     

    A Baby Driver AU, but it's so loosely connected that you don't need to know anything about the movie to read.

    Summary

    “Put it away, Lawrence.” Neil didn’t look up from his laptop as he spoke and typed simultaneously, determined to get this done before the end of the day.
    Out of the corner of his eye Lawrence straightened guiltily in his chair. “Yes, absolutely, will do.”
    He didn’t move.
    “Is it away?” Neil deleted 'in essence', because it made him sound like an asshole.
    “For sure.”
    If he was going to sound like an asshole, he’d rather it was because he knew of a better way to take down this guy’s theory than by using words like 'in essence'. “Can you finish the equation on the board?”
    “Yes, I can, the only thing is there’s some exy news –”
    “I hate phones,” Neil said. “Don't any of you give a shit about privacy –” He stopped mid-sentence and looked over at Lawrence. “What exy news?”
    -
    in which neil hates phones but is curious about the exy news, and then some more stuff happens over a series of chapters involving only friend jeremy, exy pro andrew, and darling OCs lawrence & jennifer. kevin's there too.

    Summary

    During The Monster's second year at PSU, their dorm RA discovered that their five-person room was only being occupied by four people, and hands them their fate that very day:

    Find a fifth roommate by the end of the first semester, allow residence life to provide a randomly assigned roommate, or cough up an $1,000 fine AND get the randomly assigned roommate anyway.

    Now, with only a few days left in the semester and a laundry list of people too afraid to room with a monster, Andrew is out of options.
    Nicky thinks the solution is to throw a party to show everyone how fun Andrew can be - when he's not stabbing people, that is.
    Andrew is just desperate enough to agree.

    What could go wrong?

    OR

    Neil works for the FBI to hunt down the criminals they can’t catch, in return for staying out of jail after Baltimore. Agent Browning isn't all that good at his job, Matt just wants to be friends with his squirelly roommate, and Andrew is the first person Neil doesn't want to lie to.

    Summary

    Nicky is well aware that he might get brutally murdered for what he’s about to do, but if it all goes well, then his death will be the turning point in helping his stabby, possibly depressed cousin and his alcoholic friend find the loves of their lives, and that, to Nicky, is a cause worth dying for.

    OR

    Jean and Neil move in next door to The Monsters, and no one can decide if they're a couple or not. Nicky makes solving this case his personal mission, because as much fun as it is to watch Andrew and Kevin pine over the mysterious neighbors, Nicky is positive that those two aren't dating.

    Positive.

    Summary

    Neil was just trying to leave the hotel he'd holed himself up in after being released from WITSEC two weeks ago.

    Simple, right?

    And while he did succeed in leaving the building, he also managed to get stuck in an elevator with the entire Palmetto State exy team, perform emergency triage on half of them, parkour a little, and possibly learned what it means to be free.

    Featuring: Chaotic Foxes, Neil being the only competent person in the room, concerning head wounds, and even more concerning blondes who won't stop staring while Neil tries his best not to die in this elevator.
