Summary
Up in the dark void of the sky, the moon sits perfectly round, painted mottled shades of grey, with striations on its surface like stretchmarks over skin and jagged pockmark clusters scarring its vast landscape. She can see everything so clearly it’s like she would be able to feel its texture on her fingertips if she just reached out and touched it.
All she has to do is reach out.

Summary
For a second, he thought he was dreaming. Just another nightmare. It was the only explanation. But the pain in his side told him otherwise. He could count on one hand the times he ever felt this level of fear, and the man he was facing was responsible for most of them.
He forced himself to breathe, feeling his heart thumping hard against his chest, and tightened his grip on the small blade to keep his hand from shaking.
Run. He could hear his sister’s voice yelling at him from the back of his mind. Run Gwaine!
****
What dark secrets are lurking in Gwaine's past? It's obvious there was more to it than what he told Merlin, and when someone from his nightmares comes knocking on his door, he has no choice but to face his past.My main focus for this story is Gwaine's past and the friendship between Gwaine, Arthur and Merlin. No slash, just friends. I just love their dynamic in the series and I hope I was able to capture it. Takes place in the 3 years between season 4 and 5.

Summary
“If the king is so concerned about Merlin,” he asks, looking at Leon, “Why does he always take him along on quests and patrols? It’s not necessary to bring a servant, and he’s clearly worried—”
Leon smiles. “We’ve often asked the same thing,” he says, and shrugs. “But I don’t think Merlin would allow himself to be left behind, so any argument is moot.”
“He could order him,” Mordred says.
“Merlin would just follow,” Leon says. “It’s easier to include him from the start. Sometimes, I think those two just need to be close to each other. Hard enough to keep them apart anyway, even at the beginning, when they were just constantly sniping at each other.”
When Mordred looks back, Arthur’s arm is around Merlin’s shoulder, and he is smiling broadly. Merlin’s eyes are bright and focused on Arthur, and his lips are tugged upwards, as if he can’t quite stop himself.
Merlin loves Arthur to the point of fear, Mordred realises.

Summary
The arrival of guests from another kingdom takes the servants of Camelot's castle in a flurry. And not just by the level of work. Due to the difference of stations, a voice to stand up for themselves at the cruel hands of arrogant and abusive nobles is often buried. Such is the same for Merlin.
Fortunately, his friends notice and are there to help.

Summary
It took a moment before Finnick was yelling too. He thrashed in the hands that held him. “Don't touch me!” he yelled, still choking on his tears. He’d never dare to say something so harsh to someone who'd bought him. If he even looked like he wanted to say no, Snow would find someone he loved to kill.
Finnick wasn’t with Snow anymore, he was with Coin, and two of her soldiers were trying to keep him still.
With a quick needle in his leg, the nurse he had recognized earlier knocked him out.
Finnick was sent back to the hospital wing.
or: after being rescued from the arena and going to 13, finnick can’t stand being touched by anyone

Summary
Missing Chris is less of an emotion these days and more of a physical entity. He’s sure everyone can see that he’s slowly hollowing himself out, that he can’t do much of anything else.
But when Jee laughs at him trying to get his tongue to touch his nose, and Mara loops one of her arms through his to keep him from tossing the rest of his cup in the garbage, Eddie feels solid again.
Maybe he likes yellow birthday cake ice cream after all.
(or, gerrard messes with the team's schedules and eddie 'i just drove my son to flee the state' diaz is the only option to watch mara and jee-yun after school on tuesdays, which, shouldn't be a problem at all, right?)

Summary
Finnick wakes up in Johanna’s bed without remembering quite how he got there. That should probably worry him.
“You wanna get wasted and watch idiot television?” Johanna asks, and Finnick’s so relieved he laughs.
“Fuck, yes,” he says, and she gets up, calls downstairs for eggs and bacon, pancakes and maple syrup, orange juice and coffee and champagne.
They’re leaning against each other half-dozing when the Capitol seal spins and Caesar Flickerman comes on to talk about wedding dresses.

Summary
Buck coming from a line of hunters has never mattered. Sure, Eddie recognized the tattoo as soon as he met the man who all but puffed at him for a shift or two. However, with a team including a witch and a dokkaebi who seemed to consider his attitude more like a little brother acting out than any kind of threat, Eddie was never overly concerned.
The same way Eddie doesn’t bring up Buck’s family’s affiliation, Buck doesn’t ask why Eddie doesn’t change to help them find a victim buried under a mudslide, or severed fingers scattered around.
Well, he doesn't until Eddie fucks up his own life and Gerrard comes back to the 118. And, granted, confronting Gerrard on scene might not have been the wisest decision. Hen looked like she wanted to smack him on the head for his stunt while Chimney sighed, an expression usually reserved for when Buck is acting out animating his face.
But it’s not like it warrants Buck following him home after their shift. One that ended up with four hours of Eddie scrubbing the sanitary facilities of the station. All he wants is a shower, a way to scrub his nostrils clean and sleep. Not to be reminded of yet another blunder to add to the ever-growing list of things he did wrong.

Summary
"Maddie." Eddie’s fear matches her own when they meet each other’s eyes again. “You gotta get out. We don’t have time…”
“I’m not leaving you.”
“What about Jee, Maddie?” Eddie grabs it like the steel frame in his side and jams it straight through her heart. “Who’d you rather leave? Me or her?”
For a moment, she thinks of how simple it would be. How badly she wants to get out. To remove the danger, to remove the possibility of leaving Jee, again, of leaving Chimney again. She could get out of the car. She could survive this.
Some part of her wants to, so bad, but she’s staring at Eddie, and thinking of Buck’s shaking hands after he got shot, thinking of Eddie spinning Christopher at the fire station, thinking of all the things this world has to lose if it loses Eddie Diaz. Thinking of all the things her brother would lose.
Thinking of all the things she would lose.
OR
Eddie and Maddie end up in an impossible situation.

Summary
The guy cradles Christopher as gently as Eddie thinks anyone could, and says, “What’s his name?”
“Christopher,” Eddie says, around a lump that’s suddenly appeared in his throat. He turns away, then, ducks down to dig through his backpack so that he won’t do something insane and embarrassing like snatch his baby back immediately after handing him over.
Eddie hears the guy say, “Hi, Christopher. I’m Buck. I like your outfit. Dinosaurs are very cool.”

"What makes Finnick Odair dangerous is his brilliance and, most importantly, how easily people forget about it. How he fooled an entire country into loving him at only fourteen while mercilessly murdering the other children, younger and older alike."
Haymitch Abernathy has no interest in anything or anyone. Finnick Odair is a riptide.
