Summary
As it turns out, there’s a lot of time to think on the road to Scotland, and a lot of things to think about. But there’s also a pretty man-cum-eldritch-atrocity snoring softly in the passenger seat.
On the way to the safehouse, Jon falls asleep. Fresh out of the Lonely, Martin keeps driving.

Summary
Lance, however, isn’t finished. “When I grow up, I’m gonna go to space and marry Coran the Crusher. Then we’re gonna rule over the galaxy together!”
What.
Keith is on his feet in a flash, wasting no time in stomping across the classroom.
The teacher looks on in mystery as Lance turns to his new companion, grin growing ever larger. “Are you going to space too, buddy?”
“Yes I am, you quiznak," Keith spits, balling his fists in first-day-of-kindergarten glory. “And I’m going to marry Dr Coran.”
In which crushes need almost as much navigation as spaceflight, but Keith has never been one to give up easily.

Summary
They are two weeks into millennia of servitude. Neither has a clue of their intertwined destinies, the love and loss which await them; they interact with the stilted politeness of strangers, stumbling through conversations punctuated with formality. Opposing titles set harsh boundaries: though every child in the land knows Arthur’s legacy, the past that gave Merlin his knobbly knees and too-big ears remain mysterious to all.
Especially his master. Custom dictates Arthur leave it that way, but the feeling Merlin invokes – so ancient it pulls at his chest – begs otherwise.
(He doesn’t quite believe in fate, but there’s something about Merlin that makes Arthur wonder.)
In which destiny has never been kind to Arthur Pendragon, but his servant more than makes up the damage.

Summary
Other than the occasional breakfast slip-up, Yachi loves her job beyond all else. What better place to be than curled up amongst tottering jam jars and paintings, listening to the shrieks of your potion-college as he tries to concoct a boil remedy? It’s a good life to have, growing fruit, making art and rooming with Hinata; this Yachi knows. And, despite the fact that she sometimes eats gout remedy on toast, she is happy.
However. There is one tiny problem with running a jam shop in a world entwined with magic.Orchards are very hard to maintain, especially when the dragon shelter next door doesn’t know how to keep their doors locked.
In which Yachi's can't help getting into sticky situations, and Kiyoko's just the girl to rescue her.

Summary
Merlin sighs. The reprimand for his sharp tongue is coming, he can feel it, and for once he regrets his jibe: it’s the King’s wedding day, the castle is hectic, and everyone is far too on edge for joking around.
“Leave the pans, Merlin,” Arthur says heavily, and follows that up with something even Morgana could've never predicted, even with all the magic in the seven kingdoms.
When Merlin came to Camelot all those years ago, he would never have expected to be dancing with the King on his wedding night. Then again, there are some thing even prophets can't foretell.

Summary
He’d already decided on this since the first night he let the flowers fall, had lain alone in bed as he pondered over his future and the cost that came with bearing the weight of all his emotions. Hajime was only fourteen then – fourteen years old and yet so impossibly in love – when he made the decision in the small solace of his bedroom, sheets speckled with the dreamlike blue-violet petals of a kurinji.
And even now, four years later, his feelings remain unchanged. Here, hunched over in the passenger seat of Issei’s rented-out Toyota sedan, Hajime finds himself coming back to the same answer:
He does not want to lose Tooru.
He does not want to forget.
(Here, Hajime remembers: once, he was in love with his best friend.)

Summary
For Eddie, senior year is supposed to be an under-the-radar kind of year. He's been avoiding all of his friends for months and his mental health has been steadily declining. Why rock the boat and make everything worse? His plans consist of getting into the local community college (easy) and avoiding Richie, the worst sort-of-ex-boyfriend ever (considerably harder.)
Then Bill drags him to a stupid party, and Eddie's plans are thrown through a loop. Suddenly, "under-the-radar" seems like a cop-out. Eddie decides, once and for all, to stop settling for decent, for alright, for enough.
Eddie's going to take his life back if it fucking kills him.

Summary
‘Richie looked down and scratched the back of his neck awkwardly. “There’s a reason I came to New York.”
“Isn’t it because of your job?”
“Yeah, but there’s a reason I specifically chose New York. I mean, it’s Wonder Boy’s home.”
Eddie choked on air. For the first time in ages, he wanted to use his inhaler. “What?“
"Yeah, I’m kinda obsessed with him. He’s, like, my idol.”
So, his new roommate was his superhero persona’s fanboy. Yep, that was definitely not going to be a problem.’
Or, the self-indulgent Superhero!Eddie and Superfan!Richie AU that literally nobody asked for.
