    Summary

    "Hold on," Dan interrupted him, "wait. You don't. Like soup. Soup. Vegetables and water. And olives. Olives are amazing. Soup is amazing. Are you even real?"

    "I think, yeah. There are theories and on-going bets that I'm secretly an alien but other than that, I'm real and human."

    "You do know that I'm everything but reassured, right?"

    Phil shots a beamy smile at him, showing the tip of his tongue trapped between the side of his crooked teeth. Oh, his entire face lit up.

    "Oops," Phil giggled. "Is there a thing that people like and you don't?"

    Dan raked his brain to get to see Phil's smile again, "Colours."

    Summary

    Dan and Phil coincidentally see fireflies. Or, well, one singular firefly. Not quite Phil's romantic dreams coming true, but it'll do for now.
    8 Years later, Dan decides to repeat that experience. But this time it actually goes as planned.

    Based on the little firefly anecdote from Podcast episode #36 <3

    Summary

    Dan is the one who cries that night. Phil bans him from every device in the house, making a big show of setting his phone on a high kitchen shelf while Dan pouts. It’s silly, and they’re both playacting, and Phil hopes it stems the nervousness in its own little way.

    (scenes post-hard launch. phil's proud. he's really, really proud.)

    Summary

    Dan and Phil find one another at a university, as rival soccer coaches, with an arranged marriage in place, and on the rooftop of their shared apartment complex, amongst other scenarios in a variety of universes.

    Of course, they still fall in love with one another. It’s inevitable, really.

    Summary

    "I'm Phil, by the way," He says, when his brain finally remembers how to interact with other human beings. "I just bought this building today, so I guess I'm your neighbour now?"

    The man smiles. "Nice to meet you, Phil."

    He holds out a hand for Phil to shake. Phil is so normal about this.

    "I'm Dan."

    Phil takes in a slightly shakier breath than he had hoped for. He shakes his hand for a perfectly respectable amount of time. He is so fine right now. So fine and normal.

    or;

     

    When Phil moves his budding floristry business into the building next to a tattoo parlour, he can't help but feel a little out of place - at least until he meets the man who owns it.

    Summary

    Dan just wants a quiet fresh start for himself and his daughter. Phil just wants his cat back.
    What neither of them expects is a five-year-old who names things into existence, a building full of nosy, well-meaning neighbors and an orange cat with a serious talent for matchmaking.

    A slow burn about single parenthood, learning to leave the house again and figuring out that being taken care of isn't the same as being a burden, one door at a time.

    Summary

    At the academy, Dan Howell is famously impossible to date. He turns down every advance with the same answer: he just isn’t interested.

    The truth is harder to explain. For years, Dan has lived another life in his dreams. One where he’s already fallen in love with someone he can’t remember when he wakes up. Then Phil Lester transfers into his course. And suddenly things start to feel… familiar.

    Summary

    A present for tumblr user yep-the-whole-time (https://www.tumblr.com/yep-the-whole-time)

    Phil wondered what kind of person painted all of the walls of their new shop black and how the rest of the shop would be decorated. Basically every surface of the shop was covered in moving boxes and Phil couldn’t quite figure out the vision of the space, he found himself assuming that whoever had moved in next to him was probably devastatingly cool, some kind of edgy hipster who Phil would have nothing in common with. Oh well, Phil thought, at least it’s not a Starbucks.

    Throughout the rest of his evening, Phil kept catching himself imagining this painfully cool hipster and wishing that someone a little more like him had moved in next door. It would’ve been nice to meet someone down to earth, someone who Phil could spend time with, maybe order delivery and play video games with. Maybe even someone Phil could go on a date with…

    Or:

    What if Dan was a tattoo artist opening his first independent shop next door to a gorgeous floral shop owner? And what if they fell into fast and hard?

    First fic I've written in nearly two decades.

    Summary

    On the surface, it looked like Dan and Phil had everything they could ever want. Sure, some things had changed, but everything still appeared to be pretty perfect - to the Internet, at least. Dan and Phil had incredible YouTube careers and had toured around the world, Dan had successfully raised his daughter despite having her so young, was still best friends with his daughter's mother even though they were no longer in a relationship, Phil also had wonderful relationships with them both, and now...Dan was engaged. To a woman named Heather. Beautiful, charming, good with Dan's daughter, but something just...wasn't right. Or maybe that was just Phil's jealousy talking. The day of the wedding though, Phil is approached by Dan's daughter with a secret about Dan, and as a result, there's a pretty good chance that everything is going to start falling apart. Luckily...Phil is a pretty good confidant.

    Summary

    Phil stays quiet, his lips pressed together, until they’re all sat in their living room, Dan next to Phil on the sofa with far more space between them than they usually have, looking around helplessly.

    “Just what exactly do you remember?” he asks Dan.

    “Uh,” makes Dan. “I know my name is Dan. They told me.”

    Dan has a ski accident and loses his memory. Phil can't do anything but offer him a home - Dan finds that said home is quite obscure.

    Summary

    All things considered, Dan was happy. Happier than he ever imagined he would be, at least. Still, something was always lacking. It felt like one of his internal organs was missing, like it had been taken from him somewhere along the way, leaving behind a dull ache that pulsed with intensified pain now and then. He felt it when he was alone at a party, standing in the corner. When he was making forced small talk at a bar. When it was late at night and his bed was cold and empty. When he played MarioKart alone on his couch. When he was making his morning coffee and instinctively reached for that second mug. When he was out in public and caught a glimpse of a tall bony frame with a head of dyed black hair.

    ----

    Dan Howell quit YouTube after he broke the heart of the first boy he ever loved. That was thirteen years ago. After a lot of struggling (and a lot of therapy) he is now a well known mental health podcaster. When he is suddenly thrown back together with Phil Lester, he can't bring himself to stay out of his orbit. And it seems like maybe, just maybe, Phil doesn't want him to.

    Summary

    Phil Lester bumps into (literally) Dan Howell, a smaller YouTuber that he recognizes, on the rainy streets of London on the first of December. As the month progresses Phil finds himself spending more and more time with Dan, and wonders if that nervous feeling in his stomach is what he thinks it is. Will he be ringing in the New Year single yet again, or will this maybe actually turn into... something worth keeping.
