Summary
Mark has felt fucked up about holding onto the pendulum of control so fiercely each time it swings to him, but he tells himself not to bother. Eventually you hit a breaking point, where the internal turmoil dries up like a puddle in a forest fire.
He'll admit that it's unfortunate that a forest fire is an apt metaphor for his love life. Sex life. Shit.
Series
- Part 2 of pendulum swing

Summary
It’s been, by Ryuji’s rough estimation, two months now. Two months and Ren—Ren Amamiya, his confidant, his partner-in-crime, his very best friend in the whole world—still hasn’t introduced him to the guy he’s dating. Or shown him a picture. Or given him a name. Or anything!
But it’s fine. It’s fine. Ryuji can be supportive while also being held completely in the dark, it’s fine.
He’s literally going to die if he doesn’t meet this guy soon.

Summary
“Goro– can I call you Goro? You can call me Takuto, if that makes you more comfortable. Truthfully, I find formalities all rather stifling,” says Maruki. “You know, I feel almost as if I know you already. It must be something about you; you’re just so very… approachable, I suppose is the word. Your face, perhaps? You have such a pleasant aura about you.”
“So I’ve been told,” says Goro. “Yes, that’s fine with me… Takuto.”
Takuto beams at him.
(The bad ending where everything is perfect, Akira and Goro are in love, and Goro goes to therapy.)

Summary
“So I’m to be bait,” Akechi says flatly. “You’re serving me up.”
Ren can feel the grin on his face, and he can’t stop it. “I gotta open the store tomorrow, I only serve coffee.”
“Absolutely idiotic. Why would I agree to that?"
Ren shrugs one shoulder and leans back against the movie theater wall, smiling. He’s feeling light on his feet right now. It’s been a bad day, but the end is nice. “Call it penance.”
“Penance for what,” Akechi says.
His smile stays where it is as he glances away for a moment, then meets Akechi’s eyes again. “Being yourself.”
—
Summer vacation back in Tokyo was supposed to be two things: an exciting break from the mundanity of home, and a chance to see people he's missed so much it hurts. If he survives, Ren has good news for himself on both.

Summary
Hiatus AU: Mark drags Damien back across the country in what amounts to the most karmic reverse kidnapping in history, but stopping to take hipster pics of scenic overlooks will not protect you from the scary stuff lurking in the liminal space behind highway truck-stops.
