    Summary

    “Dude, we should, like, test him.” Gareth says while passing the shared joint over to Jeff. They were hanging out in Steve’s backyard, a small party going on around them. Maybe it's disrespectful to be gossiping about a man whose backyard you’re smoking in and whose beer you’re drinking, but Eddie considers every misdemeanor towards Steve pay back, nowadays.

    “Test him?”

    “Yeah, like, everyone here thinks he’s so great, y’know? Except for us, of course. We should test him, to see if they’re right. And if they’re not, we can tell everyone, so they stop hanging out with a douchebag.”

    “And how are you gonna test him, Dingus? Gonna give him a pop quiz? Ask him to name three feminist writers, tell him to write 200 words on Martin Luther King?” Jeff scoffs as he’s pulling out the grass from underneath his fingers.

    He's so focused on watching Jeff’s grass-stained fingers passing him the joint that he almost misses Gareth’s suggestion. “No man,” he pouts a bit. “Eddie should like, flirt with him.”

    Eddie doesn’t even feel embarrassed by his sudden coughing fit from inhaling the smoke into the wrong pipe. “I should what?!” He asks, still a little raspy from the weed.

    Summary

    Pete skips over the part where Patrick has a big fat fucking crush on him, and he’s scared if he’s so close to him, so close around a holiday all about love, it’s going to get out and he’s going to fuck everything up for good.

    The “Please, Tricky,” is what does it for him in the end.

    With his entire being screaming that this is a terrible idea, he leans his head back and says, “I’m in.”

    Summary

    Here’s what he would say. Patrick, I really like you. (He would start subtle, where he could still back out.) You’re the highlight of my life right now. You’re the center of my universe, the sun— too much. Should he just ask him out? Good old fashioned D-word date? Sometimes the best course of action is the simplest. Like, Patrick, would you want to get a romantic candlelit dinner?
    A little choppy, but it would clear up on its way out of his mouth, surely.

    Or: ex-boy band megastar patrick x clueless bartender pete, getting together despite the secrets.

    Summary

    Patrick takes a step backward like his feet have been glued to the floor. Breathing gets somewhat easier when he’s out of direct orbit. “Go put some clothes on, Wentz," he gets out. "We’ve got a stakeout to get to.” Okay, good, blunt and straight to the point; all he can manage when he’s devoting three quarters of his brainpower to resisting the urge to jump Pete right now.

    He turns and puts the wall in his direct eyeline for long enough to hear Pete mutter and stomp away, sounding enough like a tantrumming three year old for Patrick to wrestle his lungs under control.

    Or, a cop au in which all Patrick's been hoping for is to be given lead on the drug case his precinct has started investigating. And he does get it. Only his Lieutenant sees fit to give him a partner he really does not fucking want.

    Summary

    “Shut the fuck up.” He’s not proud of how many times a day he’s resorted to that since starting to work here. “I’m going to get fucking evicted, and it’s all your fault ‘cause you didn’t tell me how hot Patrick was.”

    Pete’s met with slow blinking eyes and silence. A lengthy period of silence, like Gabe’s trying to piece together a story that makes sense. “You’re getting evicted… because Patrick’s hot?” he says hesitantly.

    Summary

    The only New Year's tradition Patrick (unwillingly) upholds is landing himself in painful, embarrassing, and downright humiliating situations. There's only two common factors: they always happen on New Year's Eve, and they're always, always because of Pete Wentz.

     


    or, Patrick keeps injuring himself on New Year's Eve because he’s so flustered by Pete.

    Summary

    It's Tuesday night. They should be watching Predator or Die Hard, sitting on their couch at opposite ends while Dennis pretends Mac's not staring at him out of the corners of his eyes, but they're not. Instead, Dennis is in the hospital chair next to Mac's bed, pretending to be his husband for reasons that he doesn't want to think about right now. He just wants Mac to wake up. Well, if he decides to wake up, that is. If Mac decides him and the gang are worth coming back to at all.

    Dennis just wishes that things could go back to normal. Before Mac decided he loved Dennis and decided to shove it down his throat, before things got stiff and awkward and stuck between them. Then Mac wouldn't be in this goddamn hospital bed and none of this ever would have happened in the first place.

    If only Dennis remembered to be careful what you wish for.

    Set after season 14. No major character deaths.

    Summary

    John Lester. Arthur thought about him carrying that name around everywhere he went and grit his teeth like he was chewing sand. It was his own damned fault for telling John to pick whatever he wanted; he’d had plenty of opportunity to lay down ground rules, it wasn’t John’s fault Arthur had run out of other Lesters quite some time ago with no plans to bolster numbers.

    Not that he’d been much more enthused to gift his name to Bella. Why couldn’t he seem to stop comparing the scrap of the King in Yellow he’d stolen to his dead wife?

     

    (In which John and Arthur take up private investigating together once they find their way out of the Dreamlands and into separate bodies.)

    Summary

    Half of the King in Yellow gets ejected through a portal on a failed ritual. To return, he must perform a human sacrifice - harder than it first seems, as the entity struggles to adapt to the peculiar ways of mortals. In a stroke of luck, he finds the perfect sacrifice in the form of one drunken, surly ex-PI: Arthur Lester.

    In the meanwhile, Arkham is in the swing of Prohibition and everyone knows how things work around here. A chance meeting and an abrupt kidnapping put John and Arthur on a case: one where secrets lurk behind every mask and blood flows thicker than gin.

    Summary

    "We'll find you a nice cadaver, or something."

    After everything, Arthur and John finally have time to figure out how to get John his own body. It isn't a pleasant process. It turns out that having a fragment of a god excised from your mind has some side-effects, and being a fragment of a god suddenly resident in a human ex-corpse isn't particularly straightforward either.

    They'll help each other through it. They always do.

    Summary

    There’s absolutely no hope of Steve following along, or paying attention, or noticing anything at all except the gentle press of Eddie's hand in the center of his chest. He can’t explain why, but it feels like his hand is on fire; like that fire is searing into his skin and lighting him up from the inside out. It burns, but in a good way. That radiating warmth, that sting of heat, feels like proof that he’s still alive.

    Steve realizes it’s the first time he’s felt something—actually felt something—since they escaped from the Upside Down.

    Summary

    After their breakup, Steve found that being around Nancy and Jonathan was pretty much unbearable. His old friends wouldn't even look at him, and there was only so much time he could spend with the kids before he started feeling kind of pathetic. All in all, he was a pretty lonely person now.

    But was he really lonely enough to consider joining Hellfire club?

    And were they really willing to accept having a dethroned king in their party?

    A post season two AU where Steve becomes a part of hellfire club
