    Summary

    Dib realizes he has a crush on Zim, doesn't know how to deal with it in the slightest and tries to completely ignore it and play it off despite it being so blaring obvious, making him more avoidant and dismissive.

    Meanwhile, Zim is incredibly suspicious. Disturbed by the thought of the Dib swept away by someone else, he plots to eliminate the problem, if only he could figure out who that problem is.

    A two-shot about two losers dealing with their (assumed) unrequited pining.

    Summary

    From the very moment Reigen woke with a gasp, he had a feeling it was going to be a rough day. Serizawa was already camped out at the kitchen table, pouring over the textbooks Reigen had barely convinced him to abandon at a reasonable hour the previous night, but Reigen could wait until later that evening to pester him for attention.

    OR: Reigen has an abnormally stressful day, made worse when he gets a migraine towards the end.

    Technically written for Whumpril 2023, day 2 "Stress|Insomnia|"Get some rest.""

    Summary

    Reigen and Serizawa get a case about a presumed haunting of an abandoned old cabin the woods. It's definitely not haunted (at least by spirits), but something about this case sure seems to be haunting Reigen.

    OR: Reigen has a hard time being vulnerable and communicating what he's feeling, especially when a case reminds him too much of some of his own traumas.

    Yeah, I don't know how to summarize this. Give it a read? If anyone comes up with a better summary, I'll be happy to give credit for it 😅

    Summary

    He doesn't feel his fingers relax, doesn't notice that they have until his mug of coffee shatters on the kitchen floor. It splashes over his legs, up against his whitewashed cabinets. Reigen shifts his gaze to look down at the mess that has materialised at his feet. Coffee seeps between his toes, and he knows it should disgust him viscerally, but he can't really feel it.

    After a long moment, he reaches behind himself for a towel. That seems like a good place to start, soak up the liquid. He crouches and a thought flashes through his mind. It doesn't feel like his own thought - is hardly in his brain long enough to even form as one. It's not a coherent string of words. Instead, it's an image, a tug, an impulse that urges him.

    Reigen puts out his hand, palm first, and lowers it into the shards of broken ceramic. He feels the edges of them prick at his skin but it all registers as pressure rather than pain. Without thinking, he twists.

    ----

    Reigen is the victim of a curse, but that isn't all there seems to be to it. Even after it's exorcised, Reigen finds himself suffering from habits he thought he'd long since overcome that the curse has brought back to the surface.
