    Summary

    “I called it the Good Luck quilt,” Grace says. “It’s all symbols of luck from across the world, it was a parting gift before the mission - but let’s not get into all that. It’s silly but it’s comforted me through some pretty hard times. I thought…I don’t know. I’m probably just being sentimental.”

    Simon grasps the edge of the quilt that he can reach, if only to make sure it’s real. It’s beautiful. There’s not a lot of color left in the world, and colorful, soft fabric of this quality is worth a fortune. The patterns are joyful, almost childish. For some reason that Simon can’t quite articulate through the sickness and exhaustion, it makes him suddenly very certain that this isn’t the COI.

    In Simon’s old universe, fabric, thread, and yarn are all precious commodities. He's had to learn to mend clothes and knit socks out of practicality. On Erid, it's a way to pay back what he owes, to make friends, and eventually, to heal.
    A love letter fiber crafts and the people who do them, an exploration of physical disability, and of course, a very soft love story.

    Summary

    Touch-starved Ryland Grace was excited at the prospect of another human on Erid who could help with platonic touching every once in a while. Simon, however, refuses to touch Ryland, closes himself off from everyone around him, and keeps having sex dreams about Grace.

    What could possibly go wrong if they’re in a room together?

    OR

    Grace refused to be so pathetic as to get hard from a punch to the face (he very much did get hard from it)

    Summary

    “You’re never gonna win this, Gri. You know that, right?” Scar taunted.
    “You wanna - bet?” Grian panted, his nose bumping against Scar’s cheek as they tussled. “You’ve gotta let your guard down eventually! And then - when you least expect it - I’ll strike!”
    Scar hummed, again with that infuriating smirk. “Nope. Never gonna happen. An’ there’s nothin’ you can do about it!”
    Grian brought his free hand out from its fruitless quest behind his back, and tucked a lock of hair behind Scar’s ear. “Is that a challenge, hmm?”

    Scar steals Grian's lucky pencil. Grian refuses to just let it slide.

    Summary

    “Stop thinking,” Scar murmured into his ear, pushing his thumbs in deep circles on his lower back. “You never relax. It’s gonna get you killed.”

    “I’m not the one who’s red right now,” Grian murmured back. His head got fuzzier with every breath Scar let out against his ear. “Maybe this is just your strategy to get my guard down so you can kill me.”

    “Not you, Grian,” Scar answered back. He turned his head away, and Grian could feel the impression of his lips against his neck. Not kissing, not claiming, just there, waiting, like he wanted to. Needed to. But wouldn’t. “Never you.”

    -----

    Or, the end is drawing near, and decisions must be made.

    Summary

    To be clear, it was a favor forged out of mutual interest. Either side had something to gain from this deal. There were zero other reasons why Scar might’ve accepted Grian’s invitation without really considering it. Zero.

    It didn’t matter that Scar had been too distracted by Grian’s mischievous grin to catch his question at first. It didn’t matter that his stomach had practically launched into his throat when the words actually did register. It didn’t matter that they were the same ones he’d fantasized about hearing for the better part of two years now.

    “Scar,” Grian had said, dangerously earnest. “Go on a date with me.”

    - or -

    Scar agrees to Grian's invitation to spy on Tango and Jimmy's date. Surely, there's no way spending Valentine's Day pretending to date his best friend will dredge up any underlying affection though, right?

    Summary

    Grian usually hated rescue missions. Not because he didn't like saving people, that was the only part he loved about it. No, there were too many annoying factors involved, too many papers to sign and rules to follow.

    Now, standing in front of a tied up HotGuy, he might have to rethink that. Maybe this could be fun.

    Summary

    The man hovering over him leaned back, releasing Grian completely. Cold night air rushed in to fill the void.

    “I guess it’s out in the open now,” the stranger hummed. “Shame. I wanted to avoid this.”

    With the additional glow occupying the space between them, Grian was finally able to catch features that were lost in the prior darkness. His curiosity outweighed all else, and he drank them in greedily. As soon as he saw who sat across from him, alarms blared in his mind.

    This man wasn’t a civilian, wasn’t even a hero.

    “Hello, Doctor,” the villain mused. “You were quite the help today.”

    - or -

    Grian is a vet. After a chance encounter in the dead of night, during which he accidentally saves a villain from the brink of death, he suddenly finds himself entangled in a world beyond anything he could've ever imagined.

    Summary

    A heavily drunk Burr approaches a sober Hamilton.

    Alcohol affects people in many different ways - the most stoic people become emotional and the happiest people become depressed. But, Hamilton never thought that alcohol could destroy Burr’s poise and turn him into a flirtatious wreck.

    Summary

    “Thanks,” he says quietly, and for the first time Alex realizes the guy is even cuter up close. “I’m sorry you had to see that. I’m usually not so…”

    He doesn’t finish his sentence, but Alex understands. He offers the backpack forward, an olive branch. “No stress, man. It’s the holidays, delayed flights are shitty for everyone. Trust me, I wasn’t happy when I learned the flight was pushed back either, I’ve got stuff I have to get back to, and a delayed flight really might fuck that up.”

    ***

    In which John's life isn't a motherfucking feel good holiday movie, except that it is, and he really isn't complaining.

    Summary

    Ivan groans, memories from yesterday rushes in his mind like a hangover. Yeah, the drunken conversation was much, much worse than the aftermath of the drinking spree last night.

    "....I dare you, Ivan, to date one guy from different departments every week for five weeks! One guy per week, got it!"

    Screw those bastards.

    But what was more damning was his drunken self's stupid response to their bullshit.

    Ivan grins, slamming down the empty bottle on the table, eyes spinning as his face heats up from the excessive alcohol in his system. "Fuck yeah!"

    Ivan groans.

    Or:
    5 times Ivan dated someone because of a dare, and 1 time Ivan dated Till because Till said that if he dares to date someone else, he'll be sorry.

    Alexander has two main things on his mind this summer:
    1. His father's campaign for president.
    2. Getting over his ex, Eliza.

    He certainly doesn't expect to end up in a clandestine relationship with the son of his father's political enemy. But alas, sometimes the world just likes playing sick, cruel jokes on us.

    Summary

    John Laurens has a peculiar way of showing affection. Hamilton just hasn’t learned it yet.

    The first sign was a feather.

    John had found it outside camp, during one of his long, aimless walks that always ended in Hamilton’s tent. He brought it in like a gift, held delicately between two fingers, the pattern brown with white splattered dots, and set it down beside Hamilton’s ink pot.

    “For you,” Laurens said, smiling faintly. “It reminded me of something sharp. And clever. I am pretty sure it was from an owl.”

    Alexander blinked. “It’s a feather.”

    “Exactly," he said, as if that explained everything. “Sorry, it’s just that you go through quills unlike anyone I ever saw, so I thought you might care for a new one.”

    or that one in which Laurens flirts like a bird

    Summary

    Alex’s keys jingle as he unlocks the door to his apartment and he swings the door open, ready to yell loudly at his asshole roommate John Laurens.

    Instead, the noise dies in his throat when he sees John spread out on the couch, half eaten Chinese food in front of him, laptop open but dimmed, dead to the world asleep. Alex’s heart skips a beat or two and he can’t stop the grin that spreads across his face.

    John looks so cute like this, Alexander thinks giddily, already reaching for his phone to capture the moment.

    Oh.

    ***

    In which Alex comes to learn he wears his heart on his sleeve, John is oblivious, and Alex formulates a ten-step plan to make that change.
