Summary
“You accused me of treating this like a game. I am sorry if I’ve led you to believe that it is only a game—though I won't deny that part of it is.” Bren gives a disarming smile. “My life is either games or murder, after all.”
“Or mail fraud,” Thelyss says dryly, not even a little disarmed.
“The mail fraud is a sort of game as well.”
A sigh. “Is this your way of telling me that you intend to continue playing?”
Bren smiles again, sharper. “If you would let me.”(In which Bren Aldric Ermendrud decides to seduce the Shadowhand and finds that the best way to convince someone to be vulnerable with you is to be vulnerable in turn.)

Summary
“I get it," Grantaire said. "We can even make it a deal, if you like – no detours, just straight home. Shake hands on it.”
Enjolras eyed him sceptically. “All right,” he said finally and extended a hand. “Straight home, no detours.”
Grantaire cracked a smile, taking the hand that was offered. “A gentlemen's agreement.”(There's a car that has to get from Norway to France, Enjolras doesn't drive, and Grantaire just happens to be there.)

Summary
Peter Hale is not afraid of dying.
Not anymore, at least. Once, Death was something he feared. An ending chapter to the strange book of life. A grand, somber pause. But between the resurrections and the awful concept of living his lonely, miserable life for an unspecified amount of time, death lost its sparkle.
Dying did, however, chase him far away from Beacon Hills. Far from charred wood and smashed picture frames and all those lonely, lonely memories. Far from Derek and Scott’s watchful eye, and far from the dark cloud of fatality that Peter had found himself trapped under. Dying chased him to the rain-soaked coast of Humboldt County, where the mountains met the seas and all things are neatly hidden behind the emerald curtain of the old-growth redwoods.

Silence Is the Speech of Love by lady_ragnell for samyazaz
Fandoms: Les Misérables - All Media Types
24 Jan 2014
Tags
Summary
Grantaire's life has a pattern: he pays his respects to Aphrodite, he goes to work, he loves Enjolras and provokes him because he can't bring himself to do otherwise. That seems unlikely to change, at least until Enjolras speaks out against the gods and ends up cursed. Grantaire does his best to help him, but it turns out it's just as hard to love Enjolras up close as it is from afar.

Summary
Grantaire’s first flower appears when he is two years old. It’s late, for a First Bloom, considering some children are born with their First already etched above their hearts, but Grantaire’s parents are warm and loving and wait to see what sort of child they have born unto the world.
His First Bloom, when it comes, is vibrant patch of yellow carnations. He is too young to know what it means, and his parents don’t tell him, just—withdraw, and a much smaller patch of yellow carnations appears on his mother’s ankle.

working for a paycheck by jadedpearl

Summary
Sometime between Eddie’s first apartment after Myra and his second, he adopted a fucked up looking rat of a dog that Richie thought might be some sort of chihuahua, but with longer, stringy patches of hair. The dog’s name was Rager, and he had a broken front tooth and sometimes had to wear what looked like a wide cloth belt but was actually a diaper, just so that he wouldn’t spontaneously piss all over Eddie’s New York City apartment. The apartment in question cost $2550 a month and absolutely should have housed an art dealer and his two greyhounds, but instead Eddie paid the rent so that Rager could live in style on the Upper East side.

Richie is outed. Eddie gets a dog. They don't talk about it, and then they do.Series

Summary
"Did you see Stan's email?"
"Yes," Eddie says and the 's' sounds sharp and jagged on Richie's end. "I've already spoken to Hayworth to ask if I can have the Friday off. Asshole better give it to me, I haven't taken time off since fucking January."
Richie fiddles with the zipper of his jacket for lack of a better thing to do with his hands and asks, "So you're coming?"
"If Hayworth lets me go."
"If Hayworth lets you go."
"It'll be good to see everyone," Eddie says softly.
It'll be good to see you, Richie hears.
"Yeah, man." He swallows. "It's been a while."

Summary
Eventually the zucchinis are all decimated and the Furbys are lined up how Bev wants them. Richie tucks his legs in and makes room for other people on the couch. When Mike sits next to him instead of Eddie, he tries not to be crestfallen. Being seated next to Mike is a blessing, and Eddie’s only two cushions away. Richie waits for Mike to get comfortable before plopping his legs in his lap so his toes are touching Eddie, anyway.
“Get your foot out of my armpit,” Eddie says, shoving Richie away. “What the hell are we watching?”
“I’m so glad you asked,” Richie says. For a moment, his stomach twists nervously. But the truth is, he knows he has nothing to be worried about, not anymore. “Who here likes to objectify men?”

Summary
“So obviously Derry was fucking batshit,” Eddie says.
Richie hums in an affirmative tone, determined to keep his mouth shut.
The rest all comes out to the signature rapid-fire Kaspbrak beat.
“I’m not good at talking about shit but I talked to Stan and he said a therapist was probably a good idea so I got one and I figured some things out and you wouldn’t talk to me and you didn’t answer your fucking phone, but you said – you said I could come visit anytime, before we all went home, and if you didn’t mean it you’re a real fucking asshole, because I’m here now and I didn’t really have anywhere else to go or stay because I’m, because,” He sighs and drags his left hand down his face, conscious of his scar, and Richie clocks something before his brain catches up, “Because I got divorced. Also, I’m gay.”
(Or: Eddie shows up on Richie's doorstep. You know the drill.)

Summary
Based on art by Puckboum for the Captain America Reverse Big Bang. The prompt: "Post-apocalyptic AU. The idea I had while drawing was that the end of the world happens some time after WS or CW, Steve and Bucky are looking for Tony so he can make a new arm for Bucky, and Natasha, Clint and Sam are looking for them so they can stop Hydra from taking control of what's left of society. That or quiet slice of life, except in a post-apo world."

Summary
Eddie squints at the little silver bag under Richie’s right arm. “Is that drugs?” he asks. “Do you keep drugs in that bag?”
“And paraphernalia,” Richie says, as himself. “This is our third tour together. What the hell did you think I kept in here? Communion wafers?”
“I don’t know!” Eddie says, sitting up. “I tried not to think about it! How many state lines has that bag crossed?”
“A lot.” Richie grins. “Yes or no?”

Summary
Things have been...rough, since Derry, and the fucking clown. The aftermath was a fucking mess, dealing with the hospitals, the recovery. Fending off well-meaning but nosy friends. Trying to convince everyone to let him go home. All while feeling like absolute shit, with his insides constantly trying to be on his outsides. And then going home was also a mess, leaving was so fucking hard, especially when Richie...when Richie asked him to stay.
But Eddie couldn’t stay. He had to go home. Fight with management, fight with Myra, remind himself over and over that he didn’t need her, didn’t need anyone. That she lied to him, like his mom lied to him, lied that he needed them. And then moving out was shit, and living alone was shit, and everything was shit, but. God, full moons are always the shittiest. And then the day after full moons are even worse than that. And he’s so fucking tired, and he needs to sleep, but everything hurts. God, he hurts so fucking bad.

Summary
"I'm just saying. You haven't shut up about wanting to fuck a stranger since you left Myra,” Bev says. “He's a stranger who is down to fuck. What are you twiddling your thumbs for?"
Eddie sighs. He chews on a bit of soggy bell pepper and considers it. Finally he says, "I just worry it'll be bad."
Bev laughs. "Sex with strangers often is."
"Oh, great! That's just what I wanted to hear!"
"C'mon, Eddie," she says. "What's the worst that could happen?"
OR:
Eddie and Richie try to have a one-night stand and get snowed in together.
