Are you there, God? It's me, Finney by bright_place

Summary
For a while, he lies on his back on top of the covers, hugging his duffel bag against his chest. His eyes are glued to the popcorn ceiling, appreciating the weight on his chest, an instant soother for him, and tries not to think about his mother or God or the pretty boy below him, or almost anything else. If his head was a solar system, there would be a meteor shower spanning lightyears.
Below him, people are playing cards, laughing, getting to know each other. Some boys are unpacking, others just throwing clothes around the room and roughhousing. He’s glad Robin took the bottom, it seemed a shit ton more chaotic down there and he couldn’t handle that at the moment.
Welcome to Camp Alpine Lake. Yeah, God hated him that much.

Summary
Halfway into breakfast, he started feeling it. Sounds gentled and his chest loosened, thoughts blurring a little bit so he didn’t have to pay such close attention to them. His feet swayed back and forth under the table as he ate bacon and toast, slower than usual but all the more grateful.
The pills helped, they really did. And no one could even tell.

Summary
"That's enough for now, Johnny. Save yourself for later for me, I'll be back. You did good" He slides that hand down to the small of his back where his shirt rides up, slipping a hand up it, thumbing the ridges of his back. Finney presses his forehead tight to the concrete, eyes shut, still sobbing silently. He can't fully articulate how long it takes before The Grabber drifts back upstairs, until his hand is gone. It feels like it's still there. But eventually, he uncurls, redresses, and cries a lung out.
No one can hear him.
or
Finn gets high to cope, it's all he knows. But flashbacks, particularly intimate and disgusting ones, flood his psyche as he tries to relax. Finney Blake is a broken system.

Summary
When Wednesday returns to Nevermore after last year's incidents, something's different. Both in the hallowed halls and in herself. Something is going on. Something sick. Something vile. And this time, the answer can't be investigated in a case. She can't mull over suspects or inspect crime scenes. No, this time, she is the conundrum. After exhausting her psychic ability to black tears, prophetic trances plague her next. Her whole body goes numb, eyes roll back to only the whites, and speaks. It's in a deep voice, strangely unlike her own. And everything she spouts is cryptic nonsensical verse, clearly nothing...until its something.
As these trances become more and more common, she weakens greatly. The white leaves her skin, fading to a pasty grey. Her eyes lose their darkness, and her bones their strength. What will be left of Wednesday if they don't figure out a cure in time? What could be causing these trances? What does all the gibberish mean? And most importantly, how will all who love and care about Wednesday find their way on without her?
or
Wednesday's health worsens as her psychic abilities degrade. Can Enid find a way to save her perishing roommate? Can she stand to watch her fade away?

Summary
(Set in season two)
Wednesday experiences writers block, mind too preoccupied with trying to save Enid from demise to focus on Viper, her fictional protagonist. When Enid returns to the dorm, a small moment is shared. It might not mean anything at all.
But then again, it could still. At the very least, it could mean something to them.
