    Summary

    It was a strange but not unheard-of thing to have one’s soulmarks on their fingertips.

    The little black dots on each fingertip of his left hand could almost pass as non-protruding moles on a first glance, except the chances of having five identically sized moles on one hand were slim to none. His kids would ask about them, sometimes. They hadn’t the age nor maturity yet to understand the nuance behind soulmarks—their different ways of presenting, what they entailed, why Mr. Grace hadn’t found his person yet if he was so nice—but had loads of hypotheses around the topic. For Ryland, it was a bit of a touchy subject to teach.

    So it was more than just a little disappointing when Director Stratt walked in his classroom that fateful fall afternoon and he felt the signature twinge that everyone describes, sudden and sharp and deep in his core the moment he laid eyes on her, sure that there would be something there when his gaze immediately dropped to her hands—only for them to be pale, porcelain, and bare. If she noticed the host of emotions that crossed his face over the span of their interaction, she didn’t comment. And that was that.

    Or: those four years on Stratt's Vat.

    Summary

    /perē'apsis/

    The point in the path of an orbiting body at which it is nearest to the body that it orbits.

    ・ 。゚ ☆: * .☽ .* :☆゚. ・

    He remembers, distinctly, the first time he met Eva.

    “Met” was generous—it was more like gawked from a distance. It was a warm Autumn afternoon after the last bell when he first spotted her across the mezzanine, through the open door of the student council office where she was jotting down notes at the head of the table, head down and brows furrowed in concentration. The sun filtered through the window behind her just right so that she seemed to glow and from the end of the hall, Ryland traced the blue of her eyes down the bridge of her nose to her soft pink lips and knew he was utterly fucked.

    Summary

    He had successfully overthought his way out of careers, relationships (some, many before they ever got the chance to be anything), apartments, and jobs. That overthinking usually led to some places where story-making ultimately got a hold of his impulses, and he put his foot in his mouth. He had put his foot in his mouth plenty of times around Eva Stratt, and she still held him in some kind esteem. She made him feel something he hadn't felt very often in his life. It was how he felt about the Astrophage and Project Hail Mary: like having a direction, as if his internal compass were waking up and showing him his North Star.

    That scared him because it always prefaced the destruction of something that gave Ryland Grace a purpose.

    Eva Stratt gave him a purpose. And he overthought himself into a position that truly must be the worst of all.

    He kissed her. But she kissed him back.

    Summary

    Eva Stratt liked outliers. She always had.

    So it was a bit of a disappointment to find that face to face Dr Ryland Grace was actually very milquetoast.

    Summary

    Will raises his eyebrows. “Is that why you came in here?” he repeats, looking back down at the blue flannel. “To ask me about the weather in Lenora?”

    “Kind of,” Mike says, and then, “well no, not about the weather specifically. I just– I wanted to talk to you.”

    “Oh.” And Will looks a lot more surprised at this, actually, than the idea that Mike might have just wanted to come to his room to make small talk about unseasonably frigid California winters. “Okay. What about?”

    “Anything.” The response is embarrassingly immediate. “Everything. I don’t know. I missed you.”

    Hawkins, 1986. The world is ending, there are too many people in Mike's house, and to top it all off, he and Will have some things to talk through.

    Summary

    Henry’s smirk deepened, still trained on Will. He was waiting expectantly.

    Will’s breaths hardened, eyes practically catching on fire in rage.

    A fresh wad of fear slapped Mike in the face. The sight of Henry seeing Will, taunting him, was too much. “Will, I can’t-”

    I can’t lose you. I can’t do this.

    Will’s gaze jerked from where he was locked with Henry, and he found Mike’s eyes. The battle was in full force around him, yet Will was the only thing in the world. The last few members of their own crew were rushing past them, and they were running out of time.

    Will was so full of unadulterated anger, yet his eyes were bountiful with love as he pressed a short kiss to Mike’s lips.

    “You can."

     

    Or: With Henry's secrets revealed, Mike's loyalty is steadfast to Will. They've escaped the king's grasp for now, though their torments have just begun with conflict rising between kingdoms. The paladin and the cleric must trust in their allies, their friends, and in their love to make it out alive.

    Summary

    Will pressed his face to the glass, wishing that he were closer. The man’s cheeks were pale, having thick eyebrows and lips. His nose was long, though it didn’t disrupt the harmony of the man’s features. His eyes were the most captivating part of his face: wide and brown, reflecting the moonlight.

    In other words, he was beautiful.

    Will found himself blushing, feeling foolish for swooning over the knight, who clearly was just doing his job. He couldn’t help but itch for his parchment and ink, to see the man up close, take in those eyes when they weren’t forced to remain a disciplined neutral.

     

    Or: William Byers is a prince under King Henry's rule, known for being one of the most exceptional clerics of the entire lands. In comparison, his life remains pretty lackluster, and Will is convinced that nothing more will ever come of it.

    That is, until a certain Sir Michael Wheeler is elected as Will's personal knight.

    Summary

    “I’m glad they moved me closer to the art block,” Mike mentions after a second, and Will blinks at him. “It’ll be easier to bother you, now.”

    Will clicks his teeth. “Incredibly professional,” he notes, and Mike’s smile widens. Sometimes, Will’s heart feels moments from exploding, like a firework someone had poured gasoline onto and threw in a fire.

    “I’m the pinnacle of professional,” Mike decides, oblivious to Will’s cardiovascular issues.

    Between being a teacher in a school full of chaos, being in love with his best friend and coworker of several years, and Lucas' worst idea yet, Will tries his best to make it through another school year.
