    Summary

    In a Walmart at three am, between beef jerky and tortilla chips, with the lights flickering above them like it’s the fucking twilight zone, Bradley wants him more than he’s ever wanted anyone.

    or: it's a hundred degrees in texas.

    Summary

    "There was a reason he always included his newspaper at the end of his name. People should be identifying Trent with the Birmingham Mail, with journalistic rigor and sarcastic questions, not with locker room smiles. Not with left wing politics. Not with affairs with football players, whose evident straightness could be explained away with a fantasy of tragic closeting.

    "But a boy could dream."

    Trent Crimm has already lived a long and checkered life as a reporter, but when he meets an inexperienced coach called Ted Lasso, he breaks every single one of his own rules.

    Summary

    Love is a constant terror of loss, Obi-Wan instructs Anakin, once.

    He's twenty-seven when he says this. He’s had vague nightmares of war but no real knowledge of it. He hasn’t yet taken charge of a quarter of a million lives, hasn’t locked eyes with Cody and heard him say General, say Obi-Wan. At that moment he has no idea what it’s like to love the way his padawan loves, greedily, with grasping hands, desperate to see the depth of his hunger reflected back at him. He has loved, Qui-Gon and Siri and Quinlan and Bant, but these have all been loves that he was able to make himself ignore.

    He has no idea, yet, what it’s like to feel love that he cannot ignore.

    Summary

    Wedding season approaches at Button House and, for once, everything is going off without a hitch. Of course, there’s the slight issue of Pat’s recent epiphany about his sexuality, Kitty’s determination to get her hands on as much badly-written erotica as possible, and the peasants becoming decidedly revolting. Still, if only the ghosts can refrain from murdering any of the builders, Alison is fairly sure they can pull this off.

    Or, Pat and the Captain negotiate coming out, even if it's only to each other.

    Summary

    In the war, Dean holed up in hollows and friendly attics and Muggle pubs. He drew Umbridge the Toad, noseless Voldy confused by the last dozen plus years of wizardly pop culture, the Ministry of Magic with its fingers stuffed in its stuffy ears.

    He drew Snape as Headmaster, his sneer easy after seven years of notebook margin practice. Dean drew the Dark Mark over London’s skyline and he left his work nailed up around Diagon Alley, Hogsmeade, Godric’s Hollow. He signed his name. He had things he wanted to say.

    There were long days when he didn’t talk to anyone– walking old fields and long roads, sleeping in haystacks. There were long weeks when he only talked to strangers– passersby, shop owners, sympathizers, snatchers who he traded curses with.

    He drew the Gryffindor Common Room, hearths all ablaze. He listened to Lee Jordan’s radio show on the crackling airwaves. He drew his little sisters, who had gone to France with his mother and father. He drew faces from the darkened boys’ dormitory– Harry’s long bangs hiding his scar, Neville practicing his dance moves for the Yule Ball, Ron asleep with his head on his thick Weasley sweater, Seamus grinning at him over a three a.m. game of cards.

    Summary

    1985. Four years after the death of his friends, Remus decides to break out of the pattern of his post-war life and try living among Muggles. In a sleepy town in southern England and the bustling city of London, he tries to build a new life for himself, piece by piece. The more he sees of the Muggle world, the more Remus wonders if that structure is as stable as he would like to think it is.

    “The Survivor” is set in Thatcherite Britain, in the wake of the Falklands War and the onset of the British AIDS epidemic. It explores themes of disease, stigma, war trauma and grief, reflecting both on the historical context of the 1980s and Rowling’s characterisation of Remus Lupin.

    Summary

    Finn wakes up. He wakes up slow, the rising tide of consciousness making him aware, firstly, of how stale his mouth tastes. Then it's the general stiffness of his body, the foreign feeling of a pillow beneath his head, the softness of the clothes he's wearing. Finn doesn't think he's ever worn clothes so soft.
