    Summary

    “Houston, do you copy?”

    Caitlyn panicked, feeling extraordinarily unprepared having been thrust into her new position without so much as even a handbook to consult. What were the formalities? What was she supposed to respond with? Where was the damn push to talk button…

    “Hellooo? I said Houston, do you copy?”

    Caitlyn fiddled with her headset, having finally found the green button on the side and hastily letting out a rather breathless reply. “Um, yes. Hello? This is Houston. I copy.”

    There was a long pause in which Caitlyn sat twiddling her thumbs, anxiety pushing the frantic pulse of her heartbeat through her eardrums. Was that wrong? Did she already fuck up? She took a steady deep breath, finger hovering over the talk button until the familiar voice of the astronaut came through her headset once more.

    “Damn, Houston. I didn’t expect you to sound so sexy.”

    OR

    Caitlyn has been assigned as the personal capcom to one of the astronauts currently on a year long expedition at the international space station. Cue long months of pining and desperate longing.

    Summary

    There’s an observable phenomenon among the hosts, where something happens to one of them and it rings through the others, vivid and calling. Uncoordinated, but perfectly in sync, they’ll turn to witness whatever momentous thing is happening in that host. Today it happens again, all of them honing in on Haruhi’s laugh.

    He wonders if she can sense it, their eyes and hearts on her, breathing in rose-sweet air and watching as the whirlwind delight that is Renge sweeps Haruhi off her feet.

    ~

    Haruhi and Renge’s new relationship sparks envy, shatters plans, and stirs up fears throughout Music Room 3. Especially for one Kyoya Ootori, who is now down a beard.

    The carriage is rattling. Midnight fast approaches.

    But there’s a magic in dreaming, and a comfort in sharing pain. The tighter the Host Club family holds, the brighter their future seems.

    tamakyo & harurenge centric!

    Summary

    “I’m always amazed at how you’re not kidnapped or dead in a ditch. Your luck is almost annoying.”

     

    “What can I say?” Vi grinned with that casual leaning shrug. “God is a woman, and She thinks I’m hot.”

     

    Vi and Cait are coworkers on the second season of their hit show. Their characters onscreen have great chemistry and are popular with fans, but the actors themselves? Barely get along.

    Until they have to.

    Summary

    Even after years of it, Penny Polendina wasn't used to a human-- er, normal sleep schedule. Nestled in the dark peace and quiet of the apartment she shared with her best friend, Ruby Rose, the android couldn't help but think; literal gears turning in her head. She tossed and turned under the piles of blankets Ruby had said could give her a sounder sleep, burying her face deep into her pillow. No matter what she did, her mind still raced with thoughts.

    Thoughts that were already years old.
