    Summary

    “Are you comparing my relationship with Jonathan to the Fall of the Roman Empire?” Steve asked Robin. “Because even I think that’s a little dramatic.”

    Robin snorted.

    “No,” she shrugged. "The history between you two is so much less important than the disintegration of European superpowers. But," she added, "it's hard to forget pain. You want to know what’s even harder to remember?”

    “What?” he dared to ask.

    “Sweetness. We have no scars to remember happiness by. But acts of violence? Of destruction? Of personal moral failings? Those are the things that matter. Those are the things that people carry with them.” Then, she reached over and lifted up his hand, flipping it over to observe his knuckles: there was a long, red line that wrapped up and around his wrist and her thumb brushed alongside the skin where it was silvery and smooth. Steve knew exactly where the mark had come from, and so did Robin. “So how many scars did you leave Jonathan with?” she then asked.

    Again, Steve paused.

    “I don’t know,” he finally answered honestly as Robin’s hand dropped. But if he had to think about it, there must have been a few.

    Summary

    "Isn’t there a better way for you to tell me that you like me and that you’re sorry for what happened in high school? Other than calling out a number at me in public or writing shitty porn featuring your self-insert?” Jonathan snaps.

    Silence. Steve looks thoughtful.

    -

    Or: a twenty-something Jonathan gets catcalled walking through his hometown mall in Hawkins, Indiana. What he discovers is a pair of perpetual slackers who he may or may not remember from high school. Bad pick-up lines and burgeoning albeit awkward friendships follow. And coffee. So much coffee. At least Steve's hair is nice to look at.

    Summary

    “Age of Consent” by New Order blares out, loud enough for Jonathan to hear across the room.  He had been there when Steve chose it a few months ago during another war room: “‘Age of Consent’ is good, I guess.” 

    “It can’t be I guess, dingus!  It has to be enough to save you from a brutal interdimensional death!” Robin snapped.  

    Steve had rolled his eyes.  “What’s Vecna gonna want with me anyways, Rob?  I’ll do ‘Age of Consent.’” 

    Jonathan had known, that night, that it might be the wrong choice.  But he didn’t say anything because it had been years and he could be wrong and maybe some selfish, petty part of him didn’t want to give Steve the satisfaction of Jonathan still knowing.

    Something lifts Steve off of the couch.

    “It’s not working!” Robin screams.  

    And Jonathan knows why it isn’t working.  He remembers.  Whatever high school bullshit Steve has put him through doesn’t particularly matter in the face of watching him be destroyed and turned inside out.  So Jonathan, calmer than he feels, says, “It’s Hank Williams.  Do you have Hank Williams?”

    Summary

    Jonathan Byers didn’t believe in soulmates. Not in the sense that they didn’t exist. He knew they were out there– in theory. He wasn’t naive enough to think that he’d actually find his. He also didn’t buy into the belief that you couldn’t live a happy life without finding your soulmate. He didn’t know anyone who had found their soulmate and they all lived perfectly happy and normal lives. There was just one benefit of finding a soulmate. Colors. The moment a person and their soulmate touch, their worlds are flooded with vibrant, beautiful colors. Without that person, you were stuck in a world of black and white. When Will goes missing, finding his soulmate is the last thing on Jonathan’s mind that is until he punches Steve Harrington in the face and his world is flooded with color.

    Summary

    Steve made his choice, hiding behind his too-big Letterman jacket and later that overpriced Members Only while his friends went out of their way to make Jonathan’s life hell; or what he thought, in the ninth grade, was hell.

    Hell actually came two years later, when they dragged Will’s body out of the quarry.  When Lonnie came home.  When his mother sat him down like he was three years old again and said, smiling tightly, I’m going to have a baby.

    Benjamin, the magnificent life-fixing-grief-resolving-replacement-baby, was born nine months later.

    Summary

    “The rules are simple.” She said, eyes darting to a clock on the wall before she looked back at Keith, “Unlike the past, no matter what you do in the future, the past will not be affected. You will be.

    All you have to do is observe the future, pinpoint where and when the potential ended up buried forever, and return to stop the same from occurring in your future.

    There is no point in changing the future you will see, for that is already set in stone. Observe what has bloomed and grown, find the root, and leave the future to flourish on its own.

    For beauty is subjective, and perhaps there is someone beyond our time that sees an incompressible perfection in the future we deemed unexplored.”

    With those words, Queen Masari held the drink out to Keith, and, for a moment, the black paladin stared at the drink in genuine wonder.

    Was it really a good idea to just leave his team behind like this?

     

    or the one where Keith was sent to the future for a week or so to find whose potential was left buried and find the cause of its wilting. (Why was Lance not by his side?)

    Summary

    If Hatake lands weren't so close to the Academy... if the outer perimeter didn't stretch across nearly the entire strip of forest between the oldest students' training grounds and the sheer cliff of the Hokage mountain... if it didn't have to have precise, perfect seals to allow children and authorized adults through for Academy survival classes, seals undamaged by ice and rockfalls and curious little hands with blunted kunai scratching at the pretty designs in the boulders... if the weather of fog and knives didn't have Kakashi on high alert... He might never have caught the faint scent wafting through the fog.

    Who the hell was stupid enough to go wandering around outside while in heat? And unmated?

    Summary

    “Tadashi, it’s a bad idea. Oh my god, this is such a bad idea.” At the conviction in Yachi's words, Yamaguchi throws his hands up. Yachi sees the offence written all over his face and backtracks. “I’m sorry! It’s just, you’ve literally told me that you think he’s attractive—"

    “He is!” Yamaguchi fails to see the issue here, still reeling from her unexpected disapproval. He kind of thought Yachi would be on board, or find it funny. But who is he kidding, this is Yachi, of course she’s going to worry. “First of all, I’m his best friend, I’m allowed to admire him! And second, I was drunk when I told you that! In confidence, I might add!”

    “Well, what happens when you fall in love with him for real?”

    Yamaguchi stops breathing for a second. Oh, yeah. That would be an issue.

    or,

    in which yamaguchi asks tsukishima to be his fake boyfriend for their friend group's yearly lakehouse trip. this goes about as well as you'd expect.

    “Keith? Buddy, did it sting? Bite? You okay?” Lance says.

    “Bitten. Shit, that hurt, I don’t know where it we-”

    Keith looks up and just stops. That’s all Lance can describe it as. His mouth ceases forming words, his eyes lock onto Lance’s and his body freezes.

    Summary

    What's wrong with wanting an alpha by your side during your rut?
    Hajime doesn't want an omega, he hasn't met anyone who makes him feel even the slightest bit like this, and he certainly doesn't want an undefined someone he might or might not meet in the future. He wants Oikawa, even though Oikawa is an alpha.
    What's wrong with that?

    Summary

    “You’re staring.” The boy points out, his dark-colored eyes flickering with amusement. Oikawa ducks his head shyly, his cheeks burning. Embarrassed that he was caught by the boy himself, he apologizes again. “Sorry.”

    The boy hums, mimicking Oikawa. “It’s okay, I like you. You’re pretty too.” Oikawa let out a strangled gasp, his mouth opening and closing, before finally deciding that he had nothing to say. He looked like a dear caught in headlights, with his brown hair tousled and messy, his hazel-colored eyes wide in shock. The boy was clearly stifling his laughter, and Oikawa merely pouted in response.

    His heart had definitely fluttered.

    Summary

    Al-Haitham doesn't much care for his summer vacation to a beachfront resort. It's too hot and too loud, sand clinging to every crevice of his body with a nasty vengeance. He'd much rather be back at home where he can read his books in peace without suffering the sun's glare and the shriek of rowdy children.

    That is, until an attractive lifeguard catches his eye, and his holiday suddenly gets a lot more interesting.
