    Summary

    Love has always been there, stuck in the inbetween. If you close your eyes and strain your ears – push past the buzzing cicadas and droning powerlines, past the rushing water and crashing waves, past the gasping and choking of life violently separating from body – love lives among the borders of it all. Love is a ruthless monster. ‘Hikaru’ has become too human.

    Or

    Yoshiki and ‘Hikaru’ had a fight – nothing ‘Hikaru’ had intentionally caused, and yet Yoshiki can’t bring himself to explain to the entity living inside his dead best-friend’s corpse why he threw a conniption over him trying to hold hands in the very public eye of their school.

    ‘Hikaru’ would get over it eventually, anyways. The two of them always made up, no matter how big or small the issue. And no one else ever had to witness these tucked away moments of seething fear and festering desire. No one else ever paid the price for Yoshiki’s inability to accept what grew deep inside him.

    Except, now Kaoru wasn’t answering her phone.

    Summary

    Bill Cipher begs the Axolotl for a second chance on the verge of death. The Axolotl agrees, like the bleeding-heart idiot that it is. All Bill has to do is pass a little trial. How hard can that be for a dream demon of unfathomable cosmic power?

    He wakes up in 1979. And he is not a dream demon of unfathomable cosmic power.

    Summary

    Almost every night, I have the same dream. We’re sitting together in a room you made just for us. You play the piano and I sing along poorly. At the end of the song, you laugh and tell me something.
    I don’t remember what you said.
    My mind refuses to hear your voice ever again.
    The dream is so pleasant, so sweet. I feel so warm sitting side by side on the piano with you.
    And yet each time I have this dream…
    I wake up in a cold sweat like I just emerged from the world’s worst nightmare.
    But today, something changed.
    For the first time in ten years…
    You spoke to me.

    Stanford Pines has learned to put the days of Bill Cipher behind. It's been ten years since he and his family stopped the world from ending and all that he had left from that past were nightmares and blurry memories. He hasn't even thought about Bill, about their past relationship, about all his regrets in so long. That is until Bill starts showing up in his dreams again. Now Ford has to prepare to face the past again.

    Summary

    Jon is fine.

    He’s cold, even though he’s wearing a jumper and a cardigan, and the heating is definitely on, and really it’s a rather warm day. He’s cold, but that’s fine. He’s always run a bit cold, after all. This is normal for him.

    His stomach hurts. Not the uncomfortable pain of sickness, nor definitely not the bloating of a large meal. It’s an ache, something persistent and empty.

    Hungry is the right word, but he refuses to use it.

    Summary

    “Martin,” Jon says, frail. Martin blinks, a flick of lashes, glazing his eyes gold in the low light. Jon squeezes his hands. “This- this might be the last—”

    “Oh, come on,” Martin huffs, dropping his eyes. “Jon- don’t— Don’t.”

    “Don’t what?”

    “Don’t-” Martin bites his lip, but not before Jon’s seen it quiver. The patchy hair dusting his neck—would it be prickly against Jon’s skin?—undulates, throat in turmoil beneath.

    “Come on,” Martin says again, a plea.

    Jon closes his eyes, and the energy in his body buzzes all the brighter. He furrows his brow. Exhales. “So, I waited too long.”

    Sudden and sharp, Martin’s hands clench. It startles Jon’s eyes open.

    “Of course not,” Martin says, a rush. “God, I just—” he laughs, utterly vacant of joy, “it’s just- it’s shit timing, isn’t it?”
