Summary
Canon divergent AU.
Following their rescue from Xuanwu of Slaughter’s cave by Jiang Cheng, Wei WuXian and Lan Wangji are both brought back to Lotus Pier to heal.
Even with MianMian’s herbs that Lan Wangji was given in the cave he was still very sick from the Xuanwu’s bite on his leg. It had after all been a centuries old creature filled with death and resentful energy. It was not an easy injury to recover from, especially not when Lan Wangji had exhausted himself caring for Wei WuXian before they were rescued.
Recovery along with realisations about how they feel towards each other will be interrupted by the Wen attack on Lotus Pier.
Summed up as Lan Wangji is sick, Wei WuXian realises what should have been obvious, Wen Chao is still awful, some characters still die (sorry) and the Sunshot Campaign still happens, if rather differently.

Summary
After a narrow escape from the Upside Down, it's hard to find your footing.
Or: Steve Harrington deals with his terrible parents, Robin Buckley refuses to leave her best friend to fend for himself, and Eddie Munson simply will not stop lending Steve his clothes for no reason Steve can see.
(Or: Steve cares too hard and too deeply to not have someone else care the same way about him. Everyone knows this except, apparently, for Steve.)

Summary
“You’re doing what?” Keeley asks, her voice tinny because Jamie put her on speaker. It’s a video call, but Roy can’t see her face, because he’s too busy standing ankle-deep in water and cursing.
“He said he’s fixing my pipes,” Jamie confides.
“Is that a euphemism?” Keeley asks.
It's not.
*
Or: When Jamie's house gets flooded, Roy embarks on a mission to teach him some important life skills. For some reason, Jamie seems less than appreciative.

Summary
“It’ll take two seconds,” Higgins says. “I like to keep up to date with all the players, you know. I just thought, well, you moved recently. And your emergency contact.”
He pauses here, and Jamie raises an eyebrow. His emergency contact? He’d probably filled out some joke response last time, hadn’t he. Fucking Queen of England, Boris Johnson’s wife, something good.
“Oi, let’s see it then,” and Higgins passes over the paper like it’s a live bomb, and Jamie scans down to where he sees his own handwriting sitting over a few dotted lines, and, well. It sure ain’t the Queen.
or: Jamie goes through a series of unfortunate events, changes his emergency contact a few times, and considers the possibility that maybe, actually, letting other people help isn’t all bad after all.

Summary
“Yeah,” Jamie drawls in that soft voice, and if Coach Ted’s voice is peanut butter, she thinks Jamie’s must be honey. “It ain’t your fault, Phoebe. And I don’t think your Uncle Roy meant for you to hear what he said ‘bout your dad. But it’s kinda like that, see. No one wants me dad to come to our matches either.”
“But you want him to show up sometimes too?”
Jamie looks down at their clasped hands. “Sometimes. It’s complicated.”

Summary
Buck doesn’t think that if he were to say, “I’m in a bad place”, that anyone would turn him away. Really, he doesn’t. The 118 has too many good, kind people for that.
But every time he wants to open his mouth, to say something, to reach out to Eddie or Bobby or Hen or Chim, he hears Eddie yelling, “you’re exhausting.”
—you’re exhausting, you’re exhausting, you’re exhausting—
So each day he does his job and he laughs and he jokes and he pretends he’s the care-free goofball he’s always been. And each day he packs away his bruises and his worries, takes them home to his empty loft with its quiet rooms, and licks his wounds in silence.

Summary
It's not often that Buck is the sensible one in their little fire family - but seriously, someone has to let Eddie know that Hildy isn't taking over the world.
That is, if Eddie would stop panicking about sentient technology long enough to listen to him.
(or - the many ways in which Hildy interfered with Eddie and Buck's life, until they got the picture.)

Summary
“Fire through the heart is the only thing that puts a leshy down. Six hours in a fight, and that didn’t occur to you?”
Geralt should have known, then.
-----------------
Geralt grieves, and regrets, and desperately tries to do right by Ciri. Elsewhere, Jaskier rescues a handsome witcher from a tree, gets into trouble, takes up the name of the Sandpiper, and finds solace in a kindred soul - not necessarily in that order. Eskel just wants to make it home to his brothers, his father, and Geralt, and keep their bard alive while doing it.

Summary
Theo's voice is hushed when he asks, "The first time I came back...did you think I was a ghost?"
Liam sighs, gazing up through his eyelashes at the chimera. He scoots closer, arms circling around Theo's waist.
“I didn’t know what you were,” Liam admits. He pauses, too honest when he adds, “I still don’t.”

Every time Theo dies, he dies happy.

Summary
Theo’s never considered himself lucky. Everything he got, he fought for, clawed his way for it until his nails bled. Pushing and bending things to his whims is what he does—well, did. It stopped meaning much in the hospital with Tara. After that, it was just easier to give in.
Liam taps away at his game, still talking about all these little things in a low rumble of a voice. This boy who had, somehow, pulled Theo out of that place. This boy who fought together with him. This boy who is still here, despite everything.
Is that lucky?
In which there are summer afternoons, milkshakes, roses, learning how to let oneself be vulnerable and, oh—Animal Crossing.Bookmarked by madcapmabel
