Summary
“You nervous?” Dave turned to the sound of his brother’s voice, momentarily distracted from the half-folded paper in his hands.
“Nah, not really?” he replied with a shrug, partially surprised at the question. “This job seems pretty standard. Transporting a retired ship to its home planet for scrapping. Easy peasy.”
Born as a set of quadruplets, Dave and his siblings grew up attached to each others’ sides like a human monkey chain. Having each others’ backs proved more difficult once they became young adults, however. Their separate interests began pulling them in different directions, but thankfully Dave and his siblings did share the desire to leave Mars together. They had all decided to go the “interstellar traveler” route, and agreed to take multiple tracks at the Interstellar Travel Academy to become their own self-sustaining crew and eventually buy their own ship.
One morning Dave woke up to an Earth-based company looking for an individual with both engineering and pilot experience, which he was. With only one other crewmate aboard the payout would be insanely good, so Dave took it without hesitation. And now the day had finally come.

Summary
The notepad feels old. The pages slightly yellowed, the cover a little frayed. This isn’t a new notebook.
Curiosity gets the better of him. It always does
Press Conference - new coach
- Arrived early. Half the room is already waiting. Anticipation thick, but not in a good way. People are ready to mock, not listen.
- This is going to be a disaster.
First sighting of Ted Lasso:
- Walks in smiling. Far too relaxed for a man about to be eaten alive. Looks surprised, doesn’t look that nervous. Should be.
- What is that mustache? (Note: Find out if it’s intentional or just unfortunate.) --
or, Ted stumbles upon a forgotten notepad, it spirals from thereBookmarked by Mellow_Fool

Summary
Trent Crimm has always had a bit of a thing for Ted Lasso, although ethically he certainly has not. Now that he is seated up close, that bit of a thing might be a bit bigger than he was prepared for. It’s a shame Ted is a straight man from the Midwest.

Summary
Fic is now complete. I'll be honest, the first three chapters are not my finest work and I may go back and fix them, but I'm pretty happy with the rest of the fic.
Premise:
Trent runs into Ted on the streets of Liverpool after the Greyhounds defeated Everton F.C. This is not the Ted Lasso he's seen in the press room.These two men do not have their lives together and trying to do whatever this is, is a supremely bad idea. But they are going to do it anyways.
Snippet:
Ted shudders at the contact and steps back, his hand running through his hair. He’s breathing hard after his outburst, his body screaming at him to do something. Fight, fuck, run, anything to get out of his head. He shouldn’t be around people right now, but the urge to feel something other than helplessness has a grip on him.“Get out of here” he rasps out. “I’m either going to hit you or kiss you if you stick around. Neither of those are headlines I need to see.”
Trent stays frozen against the wall as his brain reboots.

Summary
Tim inched towards the door and tried to hear if anything was moving inside. Nothing. Slowly, he raised his hand and knocked against the wood. Still, nothing. So he opened it. At first he couldn't see anything through the dusty darkness of the room. He turned on the light, looked at the floor, and turned it off again. After a stunned second of silence, he turned it back on.
Laying there, on his side, arms hiding his face, was Jonathan bloody Sims.
Or: Jon returnes from the Circus, but refuses to speak. Martin and a reluctant Tim take it upon themselves to take care of him, involving lots of angst and fluff.
I M P O R T A N T:
if you stop reading after chapter 42, you get a good, happy ending. (there are warnings after the chapter to let you know again)
if you continue reading ... prepare for the worst.Series

Summary
Now: When Eliot wakes up, everything is wrong. Quentin is missing, leaving only ominous letters behind, and no one seems to care. He needs to understand what happened while he was gone. Why something in his body is telling him things were worse than they seemed. He has to find Q, at least make sure he's still alive.
Then: The monster is fascinated by Quentin. And Quentin? Well, he loves Eliot and he needs to keep his body alive for him to return... and he is a weak, selfish man. Really, he shouldn't have expected better from himself.

Summary
He was almost certain that there would never come a day when people called on him again, he didn’t exactly have much more work to do on earth for the time being, sure, eventually he’d have to check on systems and life, but for now he could enjoy his rest. So you can imagine the shock he felt as he began to stir, felt that old itch in the back of his mind that someone was in his shrine.

Summary
Jon hadn’t exactly forgotten that Martin was sleeping in the archives, per se, it had just… unfortunately slipped his mind.
Or in which Jon and Martin are extremely sleep-deprived and traumatized and you know what, just a dash of Physical Touch couldn't hurt... it actually would be very nice, thank you.

Summary
"Are you going for the course?" Lovegood asked. "You have the NEWTs.”
“What course?” Draco said, then, “No, don’t be ridiculous,” when he realized she meant the notice pinned up on the board he’d been staring at: Applicants To The Introductory Mediwizard Course For The Coming Term Shall Present Themselves In The Chief Mediwizard’s Office By August 24th.
“Oh, I thought you might,” she said. “Well, goodbye.” And off she wandered again in her addled way.

Summary
Dave Strider is known across the world as the youngest assassin. He rose to prominence at the age of seven, having (allegedly) killed his father. Now, as a new recruit for the International Contract Agency’s Federal Convict Exchange Program, he’s trading freedom for a badge he never wanted to earn.
Meanwhile, Karkat Vantas is one of the ICA’s most prolific handlers. His decade-long career spans multiple agents, but that doesn’t exempt him from bad assignments. Despite his protests, he’s been enlisted as the handler for the ICA’s newest and most infamous hitman.

Summary
It's pretty simple. Karkat Vantas has long ago given up on himself and instead dedicated his life to protecting mankind from demons as a Grade 1 exorcist.
It's not until he regretfully meets Dave Strider that everything starts to fall apart.

Summary
“A hallucination is the perception of something that is not really present in the environment, as opposed to an illusion, which is the misinterpretation of something that is present. For example, seeing a cat where there is nothing is a hallucination, but mistaking your coat rack for a person is an illusion.” The Beholding supplied unhelpfully.
Jon screamed.
