    Summary

    1989. Senior year.  

    It took nearly three years of growing apart, but Will Byers has finally gotten used to life without Mike Wheeler. He has El, he has Max, he has his art, and, as of two days ago, he has a full ride to art school in Chicago, so things are good. Right? So when Mike climbs through his window one night and stumbles back into his life, Will’s not prepared for the resurgence of old feelings—and even less prepared for the possibility that they might not be as hopeless as he always thought. With the expiration date of graduation looming, Will has to figure out not only his future, but what exactly he and Mike are to each other.

    Summary

    "It was simply my conjecture of what a future world might look like and how you and I might fit inside it. From a drop of water a logician should be able to infer the possibility of an Atlantic or a Niagara."

    Sherlock is certain that James Moriarty is dead and he already has a theory for the person behind his apparent return. Considering Sherlock was overdosing at the time, it's only to be expected that he overlooked a few details in coming to his conclusions.

    John meanwhile has moved back in with Mary after reconciling with her at Christmas, but finds himself agonising over why Sherlock would have thrown away everything he cares about to keep her safe. Could Sherlock be in love?

    A reimagining of Series 4 picking up from the end of The Abominable Bride.

    Summary

    No, he’s not scared Eddie will be mad at him for his feelings. He’s more worried about a future where Eddie’s uncomfortable around him, where they dance around each other at every loser gathering because the head-over-heels, balls deep, I-carved-our-initials-into-the-kissing-bridge love is unreciprocated. He thinks that that new, horrible awkwardness would be the death of him. Between having Eddie and living with this secret forever or telling him and ruining everything, it’s not even a choice.

    or, Eddie Kaspbrak is looking for a place to stay during his 4-week work retreat in Los Angeles, and of course Richie, in all of his generous, hospitable, dumbass glory offers his place. It goes about as well as you'd expect.

    Summary

    “So, I was thinking. Once it’s spring and some of the sea ice begins to melt, I’m going to go back to the South Pole,” Sokka says with an air of faux nonchalance that has Zuko immediately suspicious, probably from something similar usually being used to prompt ideas that did not tend to end favorably for him.

    -----------
    or: sokka and zuko dance (literally) around their feelings, things that they want, and duty, while springtime brings change and new life.
