Summary
When Robby announces he’s taking a three-month sabbatical and riding his motorcycle across the country, most people assume it’s just a well-earned break.
Dennis Whitaker isn’t so sure.
With Dr. Abbot quietly pulling strings behind the scenes, Dennis suddenly finds himself with three months of unexpected freedom. And a seat in the passenger side of an old truck headed west.
Robby thinks he’s doing Dennis a favor.
Dennis is just hoping to bring him home.

Summary
“Yes,” she says. “Because he was flirting with you and he knows it, and now he’s panicking like a Victorian maiden who accidentally saw an ankle.”
Dennis stares, stunned. “He wasn’t—”
She lifts a brow.
He swallows. The memory of the car ride flashes through him—Robby’s hand on his thigh, squeezing for half a moment, and the way he smiled, flustered.
“Oh,” he murmurs, realization sinking with somewhat of a dullness in his chest.
Santos beams like a proud parent. “There it is.”
Or, some boundaries are crossed, and both Dennis and Robby are freaking out about it.

Summary
One month after the shooting, Robby is back on his feet... at least physically. Emotionally, everything feels wrong.
Recovery for Robby brings back old insecurities and brings new ones. His decision of staying in the hospital instead of going home left Dennis feeling unwanted and useless. Between PTSD, pressure at work, financial troubles, and the fear that he is only “borrowing” Robby’s life and future brings for the young intern a new wave of stress, that no one realizes how much harm can be done until it turns dangerous.
With therapy on the table and their relationship far from what they expected to be, they are forced to ask some questions, not knowing with certainty the answer.

Bookmarker's Notes
Beautifully written realism, love the way emotions and contradicting/controversial feelings are talked about. The characters (and ocs) feel so natural. Pacing feels like a TV script (complimentary)

Summary
Keith has always lived his life by a few simple rules that boil down to one ultimatum: never let the fey know he’s an ironblood. The byproduct of the rare union between a fey and a human, he’s seen as dangerous. Able to harness the power of his fey bloodline without the drawbacks that keep them in check. He doesn’t remember much of his life before Shiro found him, but things have been pretty good since. Despite the fact that his guardian-turned-brother-figure is a fey, his best friend is a druid, and his dog is a blink wolf, his life is pretty ordinary.
That is, until he runs into a beautiful fey with eyes like ice and a touch like fire. A fey that makes him want to break the rules and calls out to a part of him that’s remained shrouded for so long. With their lives irrevocable intertwined, drawn to one another despite all the warnings, they’re set on a path that threatens to destroy who they are and save who they might become.
The course of love never did run smooth.

Summary
"I find myself wondering, sweet reader, when exactly someone will take a shovel to the back of this racist statue's metal head and begin dismantling our university’s scandalous love affair with the most problematic donors they could possibly find. I’m looking at you, President Zarkon, kindly remove your hand from the Republican Party’s dick. This is a liberal arts college for God’s sake."
When Galra University's Tumblr page, meant for football game updates and pleads for attendees for club meetings, is plagued by a mysterious writer determined to eviscerate every toxic part of the college, Lance is intrigued. When he becomes a leading character in the anonymous letters, well, he gets a little more curious. Lance becomes determined to unveil the writer and find out a) what is his problem exactly and b) does he really think Lance's eyes are that blue?
A tale in which Lance is oblivious and pining for the hot nerd in the back of his Greek mythology class, Keith can wield a pen with deadly cruelty, and you, dear readers, suffer from the pains of dramatic irony.

Summary
His question was simple and straightforward, unlike some he’d seen on the site which could very well pass off as unrequited love letters accompanied with heartbreak playlists to go along them. If Langa were a bit better at love advice, he might just have helped them. But he digressed.“I like a guy my age. I’ve tried my luck but he doesn’t notice. Please help me. Thank you”
Or: Langa goes to a website for his crumpled love advice and meets an...interesting stranger

“Everything,” Keith repeats out loud. “It’s only been a few years—”
“—five years—”
“—but I feel like we’ve changed a lot since the last time we talked.”

Summary
The story begins like this:
There is a legend in Fontaine,
That every time the sky does rain,
It comes, not from wind, or cloud, or sky,
But from the great Hydro Dragon, feeling sad enough to cry.
Or,
In which Freminet, somehow, keeps running into none other than the Chief Justice himself.
Things all sort of begin to unravel from there.

Summary
Lance had dug himself his own grave, really. Months ago, he had told his mother that he'd be bringing a date to his sister's wedding, and here he was, one week out, and dateless. In a last-ditch effort not to disappoint his mama, he asks his roommate and friend, Keith, to go with him.
What ensues is much less hilarity and a lot more pining than Lance had bargained for, but he wouldn't change a thing.

Summary
“Hey, do you want a croissant? Or a cookie? They’re really good! My ma makes them all. What are you into? Take anything, seriously, whatever you want!” Bakery Guy keeps waving him over at a faster pace the closer Keith gets and as Keith approaches the table he backs off from where he was hunched like a dragon over a pile of leftover pastries.
“Uh…” Keith has no idea what the fuck is going on right now and he knows that his eyebrows are furrowed in a way that always makes Shiro laugh, but he can’t help it. What is happening.
Bakery Guy shoots a ray of pure sunlight out of his face directly into Keith’s eyes with his smile and tries again, “We don’t always sell everything pastry and bread wise, so I try to hook up the other vendors with some treats before we take everything to the women’s shelter downtown. Do you want anything?”
*
In which Keith and Lance fall in love over a farmers market season the same way they do everything else: a little bit backward and a whole lot stupid.

Three or Four (Or Possibly Five) Easy Steps to Living Harmoniously With Your Roommate by Bgtea

Summary
The truth of the matter is, Kaveh has no idea how to read Alhaitham. He prides himself on being an expert at understanding people, his empathetic heart lending him the capacity to relate deeply with those around him (oftentimes to his detriment). But with Alhaitham, there is nothing for him to read; no clues from his cool expression for him to grasp. The man appears stoic all the time even during their petty bickering.
Honestly, when was the last time Kaveh has seen the man do anything except smirk or frown? Does Alhaitham feel happiness? Has he ever seen the man laugh?
Kaveh's mind is drawing a blank on the latter and it...bothers him deeply.
--
Kaveh devises a plan to get Alhaitham to smile by being aggressively nice to the man (and also maybe if he makes Alhaitham happy, he can score a discount on his rent or something). Alhaitham thinks Kaveh ate some mind-altering mushrooms and is, understandably, confused and mildly afraid.Series
