Summary
Patroclus met Achilles’ eyes. He was standing across the room, arms crossed over his chest, hair bound in a leather thong at the nap of his neck. A few strands fell in front of his eyes, though it did not look careless, like Patroclus’ hair did most days.
Achilles’ eyes scoured over him and Patroclus sat perfectly still, awaiting his verdict, like he was judge and executioner at once.“What?” Achilles finally said, making another face. There was the disappointment, flashing sharply across his cherub features. Patroclus did not know Achilles’ expressions well, but he could pinpoint disappointment on anyone. He’d seen it on too many faces. “He doesn’t seem like anything special to me.” His tone was dismissive, a knife right to the gut...

Summary
The underworld is dull.
Heroes are promised riches and wonders beyond their wildest dreams. It is why we try so hard. It is why I sailed across the sea, knowing that Hades was waiting for me on the other side. Chasing glory. Chasing an afterlife of pleasures and peace and renown.
I do not feel like a hero, so it is understandable that the grass wilts beneath my feet where I walk and figs turn to ash in my mouth.
It is lonely. Quiet.

Summary
Rick Grimes is a senior at UGA who is gearing up for the greatest year of his life. He’s got the two best friends in the whole world: Michonne, who he has known since freshman year, and Shane, who has been by his side since preschool, his beautiful high school sweetheart whom he adores, and a one way ticket to the Police Academy after graduation. That is until he gets his housing assignment…a double? For a senior? It’s unheard of. And what is worse: he’s stuck there, thanks to an overly packed incoming freshman class. To top it all off his roommate, Daryl, is rude and probably the most anti-social person he’s ever met. Whoever said college was the best time of your life was obviously lying. Betrayals, heartbreak, and scandals erupt on Horvath House 5th floor.

Summary
“Ya havin’ some trouble there?” he asked, amused and glad to have something to focus on besides the current state of undress that his best friend was in and the not-so-friendly thoughts he was having about it.
Rick chuckled and reached up to touch the patch on his lower face that was peeking through a froth of white foam. He raised his hunting knife with his other hand, looking at the blade instead of Daryl’s face. “I haven’t ever used anything but a razor before…to be honest, I’ve never dealt with this much facial hair in my life.”

Summary
Kate Hawthorne was never prepared for the zombie apocalypse. She didn't know the first thing about skinning an animal, and she'd never touched a gun. But with a strong will to survive even she has made it this far. When she meets up with a strange man named Daryl Dixon who leads her to safety she doesn't know what to think, but as impending threats draw them closer together will their combined stubbornness drive them apart? Or will circumstance force them to interact? And maybe, underneath all the craziness the world has come to, people can still be beautifully human. (Picks up in the middle of season four and deviates from there. Prison group included with an even focus on all characters. I try to spend a little time with everyone because I love them all so much.)
