    Summary

    Kyan Reki is an arts major that has a late night radio show to talk about his messed up sleep schedule, dreams, nightmares, among other things. The show is loved by his audience and everything is going smoothly – as smoothly as one can expect from an insomniac college student who has crazy nightmares. That is until a mysterious student that identifies himself only as 'Snow' gives the show a call to tell him exactly what he thinks about it.

    Summary

    The snow is beginning to fall again, in slow drifts, and the flurries melt when they kiss the glass, and it’s magical in a way Reki never imagined anything could be. He glances over at Langa, whose face is close enough that Reki can see the faded scarring on his cheeks, his pale lips with the cupid’s bow in the center that Reki has wanted, for so long, to kiss.

    Langa has always been beautiful, but he looks the most beautiful to Reki when he has that wonder in his eyes, usually at S, and occasionally in the dusky sunset at DopeSketch or on the half-pipe at the skatepark. The way he looks up at the mountains makes Reki’s throat go dry.

    He wants Langa to look at him that way.

     

    or,

    the christmas-in-canada fic nobody asked for, complete with some awkward first kisses, matching pajama sets, too much cuddling by the fireplace, a little mistletoe, and of course, the beloved “there was only one bed” trope <3

    Summary

    It would only be a matter of time before Langa noticed he was acting weird and confronted him about it. What was Reki supposed to do then? What could he say that would make sense? More sense than "yeah, sorry, man, I might have fallen a teeny-tiny bit in love with you"?

    He froze. In love? No, no, nonono, that couldn’t be it. Admiration, friendship, and well, some type of crush, maybe, since Langa was so talented, and cool and always knew exactly what to say to make Reki feel all warm inside, but in love? A sequence from the video flowed into Reki’s mind; when Langa had started smiling, the pink evening light coloring his hair purple, and how his eyes had glittered, the way they always did when something made him truly happy or excited... Reki whimpered into his hands and squirmed, folding in on himself on the bed.

    Damn it, damn it, damn it, DAMN IT.

    He was so fucking screwed.

    (Or in which Reki finds himself in a most surprising situation; on a paradise island with all his friends - travel and accommodation paid in full by his least favorite person. At least the man in question isn't with them. The holiday is challenging enough as Reki tries to figure out his confusing feelings for Langa.)

    Langa has finally built up the nerve to ask Reki on a date— all seems to be going well... all except Reki hasn't quite realised they are dates.

    Summary

    Snowboarding feels bleak, meaningless and it’s the last thing Langa wants to think about now.

    Everything changes, however, when Reki enters his cold world and Langa, in spite of himself, offers to teach him how to snowboard.

    (Or, Langa is a pro-snowboarder, who’s dealing with grief, and Reki has just moved to Canada, carrying deep homesickness with himself. Together, they help each other heal their wounds.)
