    Summary

    In an AU where eldritch beings naturally roam doing whatever they like, Dial Up is a collection of horror fics that show the side effects of being the main character in a horror genre. (Lmao)

    Fics are put in chronological order, as there is a timeline. Disclaimer for dark tones and unsettling imagery, bc, well. Horror. hehe

    Summary

    The first thing that happens when Tommy Innes crashes during his 159th lap around Auto Club Speedway, is his wheel loses traction with the ground, and he goes careening to the right...
    -
    Tommy Innes has dreamed of being a race car driver since he was four years old. Now, at eighteen, he's the youngest rookie on the NASCAR tracks, and about to participate in his very first Cup Series. When a bad wreck leaves him with a butchered sense of hearing, though, he and his new team must navigate the challenges that come along with it. Including, but not limited to: new tech; Tommy's own self-doubt; and one utterly irritating, legendary racer, Wilbur Soot.

    Summary

    He thinks that they don’t know he’s intelligent. With how kind they just seem to be, he doesn’t think they would do this to an actual person. So maybe he just needs to prove himself to them, and they’ll show him human—er, alien—decency.
    Yeah. Ok. How hard can that be?

    Or: Inspired by bitsinboots's 'Flying Saucer Attack'/continued from it, Tommy has been abducted/adopted by the SBI who believe he's a pet. Misunderstandings and fluff ensue!

    Summary

    I don’t think you’re bad, Wilbur had said.

    Tommy will admit — Wilbur almost, almost got him with that one. But Tommy’s smarter than that. Wilbur doesn’t even know him. He has no clue what he’s talking about.

    You will, Tommy finally decrees after a harsh swallow, a silent promise only for himself. The only kind of promises he can make in this form. I’ll make sure of it.


    Tommy can’t remember the last time he’s shifted, or that he’s trusted someone.

    Wilbur might be able to change both of those things — not that Tommy’s going to make it easy.

    (ft. catshifter tommy, crimeboys healing, and many, many self-esteem issues.)

    Summary

    '“I said stop!

    Tommy jumps, shoulders curling up. His eyes fly up to Wilbur, following the way that Wilbur throws his hands, knowing the camera is soaking in every ounce of abject confusion and strand of horror using his face as a battlefield.

    He can’t help it. All he can do is look at Wilbur and wonder who is talking to him: his best friend and co-star, or Wilbur’s character.

    Tommy, nauseatingly, cannot tell the difference.'

     

    a mishap on set leads to tommy failing to realize how much wilbur cares about him (ft. crimeboys as actors)
