    Summary

    Silence leaves room for strange intimacies even in unexpected ways.

    Six months before Major League Hockey Awards in Las Vegas, Ilya Rozanov stumbles across Shane Hollander’s anonymous Tumblr: an unassuming blog dedicated to book reviews. What starts as idle curiosity becomes a quiet ritual as Ilya watches Shane process distance, restraint, and longing through the books he reads, never knowing he’s being read in return.

    Across shifting genres, deleted posts, and words that cut too close to the bone, Ilya becomes a silent witness to the cost of not reaching out and the slow attrition of wanting someone from afar.

    Summary

    Shane sends a message without fully thinking it through, are you disappointed in me?

    No. Comes through immediately. I told you, good game to watch. It makes me happy to see you lose once in a while. I think you need to be brought down a notch.

    Shane’s face crumples with confusion. His heart flutters but his nostrils still flare with annoyance. Rozanov isn’t disappointed with him. He’ll ignore the last two sentences of that text. Although he thinks he knows what's coming after them.

    I can take you down a notch. Send address. Rozanov texts.

    Summary

    The Crows long to extend their affections to Kaz too, to be able to reach out as freely to him as they do one another, let touch say what words can't always. They would try to ignore the pang of hurt as Kaz coiled away from outstretched palms, because he wasn't ready for that yet, and they'd never rush him.
    That doesn't mean they wouldn't do everything they could to support him in the meantime, however. That they woudn't be there for Kaz in whatever capacity he'd permit.

    Or, Kaz receives the gift of a weighted blanket, and regains a small part of himself once thought to be long lost at Reaper's Barge.

    Summary

    Derek had blossomed steadily over the past year, growing into his ears and turning even more handsome, if that were possible. But instead of going out and melting the panties off the girls, suddenly he was coming to Stiles all bashed in, demanding that he patch him up like Stiles was some freelance nurse. It was a familiar pattern by now.

    AU in which Stiles has been living with the Hales for a few years as their assistant and friend. He needs to deal with Derek, who keeps coming to Stiles with bruises and cuts to be treated, while trying to figure out what the elderly alpha of the Hale pack is up to.
