Summary
A story of a sweet little omega out drinking, abandoned by his university friends to doomscroll on his phone and sip an espresso martini all by his lonesome.
Or, perhaps not so lonesome, if the alpha with the salt and pepper beard has anything to say about it.
An Omegaverse M/m story about the gay scene, cruising, and love at first head.

Summary
“Better the devil you know than the devil you don’t” — [idiom] meaning it is better to endure a difficult person or situation one is familiar with, even if it is painful, than to take a risk with an unknown person or thing.
Ethan is still speaking—yelling—and Adam is—he’s a little nauseous. Part of him doesn’t want to be a part of this conversation at all, and a more traitorous part of him wants to call her back, but Ethan still has his cell phone.
Adam thinks, isn’t this how everything went long last time? Adam hid paycheck stubs from his parents and got caught in his own web of lies. Now he’s lied to Ethan and he has been caught for that as well. He never learns. He always makes the same mistakes.
Adam dampens his lips and chooses his next words carefully. “I don’t understand why you’re angry.”

Summary
There’s a small half-moon of blood under the white of Tim’s nail where he bent it. He studies the red of it, feeling foggy and dreamlike. “Can I ask you a question?”
His brother’s eyes flick to him and away again, surprised and wary. “What?”
His nail doesn’t hurt much, just the dullest of aches when he presses down against it. “When you were homeless, you slept with people for money, didn’t you?”
Jason jerks like he’s been slapped. His knuckles are so pale where they grip the steering wheel they suddenly look more bone than flesh. “Did I -”
“Was it worth it?” Tim asks, drifting like a cloud over whatever furious reaction Jason was about to give him. “The money, I mean.”
His sternum slams into the seatbelt with bruising force. Unbraced for it, his head whips forward and back against his seat as they swerve off the road again and skid to a halt with a screech of rubber.

Summary
or, How Tim Drake Found A Family, Became A Photojournalist, Learned To Love Coffee, and Grew Up, not necessarily in that order.
Tim Drake is thirteen, runs the famous BatWatch blog that has spiraled hilariously out of control, has absentee parents that suit his purposes just fine, is training himself to run the streets at night, and is doing absolutely peachy, thank you.
Alfred and Jason disagree, and get Dick and Bruce involved in figuring out their weird nextdoor neighbor kid’s life. Everything goes uphill from there.

Summary
“Can’t believe a pretty thing like you has to come begging to the Red Hood,” he says against Tim’s neck. “Thought they’d be lining up down the block for you. Thought Daddy would need to get the shotgun.”
“You’re the one with the shotgun,” Tim points out.

Tim’s benched with a broken arm and starts playing Jason’s personal Oracle. Things escalate.

Summary
"I miss him," Gansey tells him that night, glasses resting low on his nose, cheeks flushed, Blue's asleep inside. They're drunk enough to reminisce.
"I know," Adam says, head resting against the sofa, eyes heavy.
"So much."
"I know," Adam says again and his voice cracks, because what else is there to say?Bookmarked by Arse_In_Arsenal

Summary
"Ronan," he whispers, and his voice sounds like Cabeswater's enchanted air.
He is a solid weight beside you, keeping you warm and safe. He leans in for a kiss as you slide your arms around his waist, tugging him as close as possible. The sound that escapes his mouth makes you feel alive and real and you can't imagine what it is to feel alone again.
Suddenly you go cold, his hands on your chest are pushing--pushing away from you--and you can't move.
"I have to leave," he says, and you feel him slipping from you, as he stumbles out of your sight.
"Wait," you say, the panic clear in your voice, "please stay, just for--"
--and then you wake up.Or: the one where Adam dies and Ronan is a walking tragedy.

Adam has a day off, and he and Ronan spend it tangled in each other and their friends.
They lounge around Monmouth; fooling around, fucking with Gansey, and bickering constantly - but it's all underpinned with real conversation about religion, sexuality, and feelings.

Summary
Roy doesn’t see any immediate threat, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t one. He carefully inches the door open, glancing up to the rooftops once more and then down to the mass currently trundling its way to its hands and knees while the balcony creaks under the motion.
“You know,” he says absently, when nobody takes an immediate shot at him and nothing catches fire, “when they warned me about birds flying into my windows, this isn’t quite what I had in mind.”
