    Summary

    “You’re gonna have to come in eventually,” says Sam, then he takes a deep breath and steps away from Barnes, back towards the club. “But it doesn’t have to be now.” Barnes’ eyes widen, and he goes utterly still. “I’ve got some conditions though, if I’m gonna let you go.”

    A year after the helicarriers go down, Sam finds not the Winter Soldier, but Bucky Barnes, who's trying his best to live and not just survive while on the run. Sam finds him and keeps finding him, and eventually, Sam finds himself too.

    An alternate take on canon where Sam and Bucky have been secretly meeting up since after CATWS.

    Summary

    “I won’t laugh.” Bucky straightens out both his back and his expression and scoots closer, knee colliding with Sam’s own. He keeps it there; it feels hot and solid, even through the kevlar. “C’mon, I promise. Just tell me.”

    Sam turns it over in his head for a long moment. Swallows hard. Rubs his palms across his thighs.

    “Okay,” he says, looking away. “Do you believe in ghosts, man?”

    Bucky laughs, the asshole.

    Sam has been haunted all his life. This is the first time he's ever thought of telling anyone about it.

    Summary

    After all, Hans was busy charming local lords and he had nothing better to do.

    What he didn't expect was that the black knight would catch his lord's attention. Nor that he wouldn't be able to stop himself from responding.

    Summary

    The moments after the Walk had officially ended, when Ray had fallen to his knees after hauling Pete up and urging him forward, when the Major had stood beside Ray with his pistol pointed at the back of his head, two other soldiers with carbines pointed at Ray’s gut, his brain had stopped working. He had heard Ray receive his final warning, the numbers as much a physical wound as his ruined body, and had screamed, “Wait!”

    The Major had looked at him, cocked his head in curiosity, his expression unreadable behind his aviators. Ray, sprawled like a broken thing across the wet asphalt, forced his head up to peer blearily at Pete from beneath his hair, but Pete had continued, unperturbed. “I want my Wish! I’ve won, he’s got his ticket, and I want my fucking Wish!”

    Summary

    “Aw man,” Pete said breathlessly, drawing back. He was leaning up on one elbow; their faces were inches apart. “Where’ve you been this whole time?”

    The bravery he’d felt so briefly before suddenly ignited, blossoming under Pete’s gentle gaze and soft touches.

    “Waiting for you, I reckon.” Replied Ray.

     

    Ray meets Pete in a bar the night before the dropout deadline.

    Summary

    Pete McVries, in a desperate attempt to find his calling, has spent the best of three weeks staring at his local notice board. When all hope seems lost, he finds a small advertisement for Ray Garraty's Fishing Experiences, and it's exactly what he's looking for. He packs a bag and heads to the countryside for what he thinks is a nice weekend with a kind old man named Ray.

    But there's a catch; Ray is not elderly at all. In fact, he's Pete's age, and to make matters worse, he's ridiculously attractive and scarily talented. After this revelation, Pete's task is simple: enjoy the weekend, learn how to fish, and please, for the love of God, don't try to seduce the fishing instructor.

    Summary

    He needed Ray, he needed to know he was breathing so he could know to breathe. Two hearts, one soul now.

    If I'm breathing so is he. If I'm breathing, so is he.

    The mantra that carried Peter through the suffocating, faux-glamour of his night. Half-dead, half-alive. Every breath a surprise and relief to himself, eyes brimming with delirious tears. So far so good.

    So far, so good.

     

    OR Pete saves Ray. Both survive. But now they must live.

    Summary

    Winning means fame and fortune. Losing means certain death.

    In the ruins of post-war North America, a military state known as The Capitol controls twelve outlying districts. The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line by forcing them to send two teenagers each year to participate in The Hunger Games, a televised fight to the death.

    Eighteen year old Ray Garraty already views the Games as a death sentence, but when a boy from his past volunteers to take the place of his younger sister he knows he's a goner for sure. Ray's a survivor, everyone says so, but what does it mean to compete in a death match when the thing you're fighting for isn't your own life?

    -

    I did it, I caved and beat-for-beat re-wrote THG with Ray and Pete. But there are still some surprises in there! As of updating this description I'm officially 2/3 of the way through the book! Hunger Games fans, you know what that means!

    I would call this film characterisation combined with book lore. If you haven't read the book you'll probably just presume some characters are OCs lol. And if you haven't read The Hunger Games I (albeit briefly) explain the worldbuilding lore here, so you won't be lost.

    Summary

    Ray had sworn he'd been a dead man. His ticket had gotten punched. Three warnings to forty-seven, and he was more than sure that he'd die. He was ready to give it all up for Pete. He trusted him with his idea in taking out the Major. And when Pete was ready to give his own life up to make sure Ray's idea happened, he knew he had to do the same.

    He falls unconscious due to his gun shot wounds, believing that he has succumbed to his injuries. Despite that, Ray finds himself waking in an unfamiliar room and a hazy memory of what had happened once the Walk had ended. The only thing he's sure of? He loves Pete - that wouldn't change. But there was no reason he should be alive, not if Pete was the winner.

    Not until he finds out that Pete's one wish was his life.

    Summary

    What does it mean to bear the gift to see glimpses of the afterlife?

    What does that make a person?

    To some, a Witch, to others, an Exorcist, to most, a Freak.

     

    ____

    Like his Father, Tanjirou has been able to see Spirits for nearly his entire life.
    He's dedicated himself to helping them move on to a proper afterlife; so much so that he's willing to help a broken soul find peace even if it means cutting fresh ties with new faces in his life. But then there's a face from the past, with emerald eyes framed by dark, messy hair, suddenly bumping into him one particular autumn morning, and he catches himself slipping- spending more and more time with this resurrected flame from High School and nearly forgetting the promise he not only made to his Father, but himself as well.

    Summary

    "Are you sure you want something light? The mornings and nights get very cold up here."

    Tanjirou nodded firmly. "Yes. I'll be okay. I'm actually looking for something for someone else."

    "A girlfriend?" 

    Ah. Tanjirou covered his face without thinking, feeling heat spread like wildfire. The young woman laughed softly at his reaction, which was fair. He probably looked silly, trying to hide something so obvious. "Sorry. I only ask because of the festival. It's a perfect opportunity to take your loved ones out to have some fun."

    "I...I didn't think about that." Tanjirou mumbled between his fingers. "But...um...it's actually for this guy—"

    "—Oh? Boyfriend?"

    "Eehh..." He covered his face even more, embarrassed that a single word could affect him so much. He hoped Nezuko wasn't awake and listening, she would see through him instantly even from within an enclosed space on his back. "It's not...its not like that."
