    Summary

    This is an extra scene from my fic We Have Chemistry but you could reasonably read this without having read the rest of my work (but you should anyways <3).

    Summary

    Gideon is convinced that if her and Harrow just said "fuck it" and banged it out, the weird tension that exists between them would finally be resolved; so, she created a totally simple, not at all convoluted, multi-step plan to seduce Harrow. It was going really well, too, until Harrow promised to make out with her if she attended their organic chemistry study group each week.

    Not that Gideon was complaining about the kissing or anything. It was just now things were getting emotionally messy and their dynamic was slowly but surely developing into something complicated. And she had to read a fucking textbook.

    (This is a retelling of my other fic, We Have Chemistry, from Gideon's POV. It contains enough new scenes that it should be interesting to people who have already read WHC and enough repeated scenes that those who haven't read WHC will still be able to enjoy this!)

    Summary

    Harrow's finally found the perfect house. Sure, it's much too big and, okay, it's slowly falling apart bit by bit. But it's quiet and empty, and that's all she needs.

    Except her landlord failed to mention that the house isn't empty at all.

    And now she's stuck, for an entire year, sharing space with someone she never thought she'd see again. Her childhood nemesis and almost but never quite friend, Gideon Nav.
    The house is big enough. They won't even have to acknowledge each other's existence, if they so choose. But that doesn't seem to stop them from running into one another in unexpected hallways or long buried feelings from coming to light.

    Summary

    "Some people take the view that we happen by accident. I think that there is something much deeper, of which we have very little inkling at the moment." - Sir Roger Penrose

    “Existence is a fact. We are all here and now. Nonexistence is an abstraction of the human mind... This is the reason I think that a [cyclic universe], which has always existed, is simpler than one that has been created." - Nelson Pinto-Neto

    Somewhere deep in the Mojave Desert, a conservationist remembers a life she never lived and a woman she’s never met. When a mysterious redhead blows into town, memory begins to bleed across lifetimes and reality becomes more idea than fact. Her only salvation lies in the golden eyes that undid her in the first place.

    -

    Or: We're so post-canon we're in a new universe because so help me Jod they will have their happy ending.

    Summary

    Caspar and Leif start sleeping together - literally - when they get back to the diner. The silence is too loud to be alone. There's pent up stress to be worked out, and an unspoken relationship between them that neither really understand, and a bottle of shitty space booze brings all the lingering feelings between them reach a breaking point.

    Part of my AU where Leif and Caspar get back to the diner before anyone else, and are a tad (read: a lot) codependent.

    Summary

    Frankie kept telling himself this wasn’t the worst life a person could have.

    It helped if he listed things. He did that a lot, in his head, like he was tuning something. Okay: he wasn’t starving. His stomach grumbled sometimes, sure, but he always found a way to get a bowl of noodles or some other cheap shit from the stand three blocks from the station, or could heat a can in the workshop when the boss had already gone home. He had a stable job, which was way more than some of the guys he saw drifting through the outskirts, hollow-eyed and jittery, looking like they might sell a kidney for a clean glass of water. He had a roof over his head, technically.

    So, you know. Not the worst.

    It just also kind of sucked.

    or a Fun Ghoul origin story.

    Summary

    Inspired by puriteenism's post "The Peninsula and Linger Straits, according to John Ware, are like super super similar, so i imagine that they cling to teeny tiny cultural differences in a desperate attempt to have some national identity. This is for Paige and Hayward to get into very, very heated argument on what things are called"

    well, not a heated argument here but the discovery that "custard tart" means the English/Hong Kong version in the Linger Straits and pastel de nata in the Peninsula, plus a little homesickness for Hayward.

    Summary

    The letters entered Ghoul's life when Party did - notes scribbled down hastily in bed next to him, long-winded letters on thick paper, some frayed, some pristine, some with lipstick traces, some with tear-stains. He knows it's the way Party shows their love: with big city words, by taking the time to sit down and share their thoughts, by confiding secrets to him that feel too big to be spoken out loud. Ghoul doesn't need to read the letters to understand their meaning.
