    Summary

    On the phone, Chris had said she wanted to meet Knox at the coffee shop near her apartment, and she’d gotten there before Knox, which was no surprise. When he saw her, the oceans crashed, putting out the hope burning inside of him with the huge, churning waves that had disappeared before, sending billows of smoke and sorrow into the dark, cloudy sky.

    He had to leave as soon as possible, for as long as he could afford. It didn’t matter, he could rebuild his savings when he got back. He had just finished college, so anywhere in Europe would be out of his price range. He figured a month would work just fine, and decided New York sounded nice.

    Or, basically,

    Chris breaks up with Knox and he feels the need to get away. New York sounds perfect, and if he makes new friends, one of whom is extremely attractive, he can't complain.

    Summary

    Kevin Price thought he was straight, he really did. He had never even considered entertaining the idea that he was anything else for 19 years, and he wasn’t going to start questioning it during his mission; that wasn’t what he was there to do. He was there to spread the word about the Book of Mormon, and convert the Ugandans to the church.
    But it was hard, when his whole life, he’d only really been around his siblings. He wasn’t a very social kid; the only friends he had were LDS, and they didn’t spend time together outside of church. So when he met Elder Connor Mckinley, and started questioning everything he’d known himself to be, it was rough.

    Or

    Connor makes Kevin question his sexuality, and the aftermath.

    Title from Put Your Head on my Shoulder by Paul Anna

    This is a little ooc, due to Kevin being a little unusually open to the idea of being gay, but hey, I tried.

    Summary

    Maurice had gone to Italy for two months on business, and wasn’t allowed to bring Alec (fortunate, really, because that would have been suspicious to no end), so they were reduced to writing letters. Based on the simple prompt: “Write a story through old-timey love letters.”

    Summary

    "Loki was devastated when you got pruned," Sylvie hummed, nonchalant. 
    "He was, huh?"
    "Completely and utterly devastated. It was a bit tragic, really. Seemed like a bit of a star-crossed lovers situation."
    "We're not star-crossed lovers. We're not even normal lovers."

    Or

    The reunion in the void scene, rewritten to give Loki and Mobius the romantic moment they deserved.

    Summary

    “I knew I was his favorite," Loki grinned cockily as the two turned and started walking towards Alioth. 
    “Sure you did. At least I didn't have to seduce him to get him to like me more," Sylvie snorted.

    or

    A rewrite of the parting scene between Loki and Mobius in episode five! I wrote this at 11:30 pm for my best friend and she insisted that it was good, but it's very short and I strongly disagree with her, but it's fine :)

    Summary

    “I’ve somehow managed never to read Romeo and Juliet. My trajectory has really only taken me through the histories with any degree of depth. The only comedy I’ve read is Twelfth Night.” Combeferre puts the pen to the top of the lunch table and starts idly writing imaginary words on the tabletop.

    "You've never-" Courfeyrac marvels. "Alright, do you want to watch the Leonardo DiCaprio version, or the old one where the girl looks like she's 12? You're coming over after school today, and I'm educating you on the second best Shakespeare play." he pauses for a moment. "If you're okay with that, that is,"

    The whole building could’ve crumbled around the two of them and Combeferre might never have noticed it.
    “Of course I am. You’re a scintillating person, Courf.” A beat. “I don’t know what the difference between the two is, what would you have me watch?”

    or

    Courfeyrac finds out that Combeferre's never read Romeo and Juliet, and he steals him for a movie night. A bit more happens than was expected.

    [Mer and I roleplayed this and I really liked it, so I'm just making sure it's all in the right tense! So if it's a little choppy and back and forth, that's why.]
