Summary
“Maybe I just enjoy getting under your skin,” James says, his tone playful but laced with something deeper. “You’re all… moody and stuff. I like a challenge.”
Regulus’s expression softens, though his voice remains cold. “Of course, you do,” he sighs, turning a page. “Though I didn’t realize your idea of a challenge was pestering me.”
James grins, leaning in as if it’s the most natural thing in the world to invade Regulus’s space. “Well, you’re the most interesting person I know.”
“Because I’m a vampire?” Regulus asks dryly.
“No, because you’re you.”
Or
Two brothers move into the house across the street and upend James’s life. While being introduced to this secret world of vampires, James just might fall in love with one of them.

Summary
“Look, Wilbur," Technoblade started. "I don’t know what kind of situation you pulled Tommy out of and, frankly, it’s none of my business. But Tommy seems happy here. Don’t do yourself the disservice of thinking that has nothing to do with you.”
Wilbur didn’t say anything. He and Tommy were alike in that way: Doubt was built into their bones.
“I couldn’t do what you’re doing, Wilbur. Most people probably couldn’t.”
“They could.” Wilbur sounded so certain. “For Tommy, they could.”
“But have they?”
That question seemed to take Wilbur out at the knees. “They should have,” he said fiercely.
“They should have,” Technoblade agreed. “But a lot of people have let Tommy down.” He squeezed the nape of Wilbur’s neck and the kid leaned into it, his head falling towards Technoblade’s shoulder. “They’ve let you down too.”
Wilbur was quiet.
“Tommy didn’t deserve it. I think we can both agree on that." Technoblade’s voice was soft above Wilbur’s head. "Can we agree on something else too?”
Wilbur hummed unsteadily.
“You didn’t deserve it either.”
Or, Phil and Technoblade get new neighbors. No one's all right, but they're getting there.
