    Summary

    ...For several years, that was all he dreamed of. That moment above the clouds, his father, and the mystery behind it. Everything after would work itself out, he thought. Gon’s goal was just to find him, that was all, and he was so happy he had finally done it.
    Gon never even considered what could come after.
    Ging was gone.
    Killua was gone.
    His Nen was gone.

    Gon sat up abruptly.
    “All right,” he said to the wind and the butterfly on his knee with an excitement he didn’t feel, “It’s time to get back to training.”

     
    ------

    sometimes you have to fall apart several times over before you can turn your life around. Once you've lost everything you valued most, with horrors, desires, and mistakes of your past looming around you like a poltergeist, you can finally come back up for air.
    Gon really wishes he didn't know how it felt to lose everything yet still be left with a heartbeat.

    Summary

    SDN Employee Handbook, Page 12:

    Personal relationships between colleagues are permitted, provided they are conducted in a professional manner and do not interfere with work performance. All employees are expected to maintain professional conduct at all times in the workplace and avoid behavior that may cause difficulty, embarrassment, or discomfort to others.

    Navigating workplace romances is hard enough even when they don't involve ex-supervillains with mile-high egos.

    “Brain damage, probably.” Chase nods. Not entirely impossible, considering his lifestyle.

    Summary

    “So you’re stealing this away from me.” Marvin says quietly, like you stole the money, like you stole my kid.

    Whizzer slaps him on the shoulder, hitting Marvin like a bullet to the chest, “It’s more like a collaboration.” 

    Marvin sucks in a quick, deep breath, pointing out in a low murmur, “I don’t play well with others.” 

    Whizzer looks him up and down, sizing him up.
     
    “I can tell.” Whizzer says, and this time when he touches Marvin’s shoulder, he lets his hand linger, “But we’re not going to be doing much playing.” 

    When Marvin doesn’t respond, Whizzer squeezes his padded shoulder. He’s smiling, in a way that devastates Marvin.

    Tilting his head, Whizzer asks, a bit coy, “Are we, Mr. Marvin?”

    :: - ::

    Marvin is a drama teacher who has an understandable flair for the dramatics. Whizzer is the new baseball coach who won't stop stealing everything that Marvin worked so hard to fortify - his prestige, his kid, his heart.

    "Well," he says. His voice is dry, because his throat is dry, and he absently remembers days of fetching Whizzer ice chips, how his skin was hot and clammy but his lips were cool, and Marvin refused to ever stop kissing him. "I guess this is romantic, in a way."

    Marvin tests positive. People deal, mostly badly.

    Nolan flies above, watching as she disappears down into the subway on her way to work — only a few blocks away from where he first rescued her — and scoffs at himself.

    He's being ridiculous. She's just a human. One among millions. He can find another interesting one, surely.

    Summary

    Chuuya knows he’s so so close, fingertips just barely brushing the possibilities between them. But Dazai’s the one calling the shots again, and he’s yanking it away, out of Chuuya’s grasp, taking absolute control before Chuuya even knows he’s given it up. Every single facet of their relationship is one-sided, both of them too blind and too stubborn to stop for a second and consider what’s on the other side of the wall between them before they try to tear their way through it.

    Summary

    For Daryl Dixon the world ended days before it did for almost everyone else, and it was heralded with a prerecorded phone message instead of a bang.

    An AU fic where Daryl met Paul several years before the apocalypse.

    UPDATE 1/12/2019: I was really put off the ship/fandom when the spoilers about Jesus dying started coming out this past summer, so I decided to end this fic at chapter 25 since there was a nice emotional resolution. Obviously I came back but don't have the inspiration for this particular universe, so I wrote down my plans for a sequel on my tumblr. Check it out: https://tinyurl.com/ripplessequel

    Summary

    “Why does your blood smell so strange?”

    The question startled Gale, who looked up from where he sat cross-legged in front of his tent, organizing his scrolls in preparation for their upcoming “visit” to the goblin camp. He’d given Astarion a wide berth since the revelation of his vampiric condition a few days earlier, so he was surprised to see the pale elf looming over him now, a peculiar expression on his face.

    “You know,” Gale offered with a smile, “in my extensive journeys across manifold realms, I do believe that is not a question that I’ve ever been asked before. I honestly can’t decide whether or not I should be offended.”

    -

    Of the many side effects Gale has faced as a result of his whole “being physical host to an imminently destructive magical orb” problem, he somehow never anticipated his blood now apparently smelling irresistible to vampires (or at least, one particular vampire) to be one of them.

    Summary

    “It’s bullshit,” Suguru slurs, sliding down the doorframe. “Bullshit. You are. I am.” He gestures shakily around the room. “All of it. Bullshit.”

    Things had started well enough. (But don’t they always?)

    But maybe, after ten years of drifting in and out of each other’s lives, there’s a chance they can both achieve what they want and, perhaps, even find some happiness along the way.
