    Summary

    He had intended to just get his photos and leave, but something about the guy interested him. He could still see him through the view finder, leaning against the tree and basking in the sun.

    He felt unable to look away, as if he would disappear forever if Dan dared to ever cast his eyes elsewhere.

    His heart wouldn’t stop hammering all the way back to his dorm. He was entirely sure the guy he had just photographed was the most perfect person he had ever seen.

    Summary

    Dan Howell, a semi-successful contributor and one-time model for Attitude magazine is, by all accounts, struggling.

But the past has a way of resurfacing, and it seems like everywhere Dan turns, there is Phil Lester—his old almost-lover, now the local weatherman.

    Summary

    Dan Howell’s summer is no different from any other, except for the fact that he’s due to start university at the end of it. With only two weeks left, he’s found himself on the precipice of a depressive episode. He’s following his passion in music, something he’s ached to do since forever, and yet there is still so much missing from his life.

    Phil Lester just so happens to suck at one particular boss of a video game, and needs whatever help he can get. So, he does what he’s never done before: he sends an unsolicited message to a complete stranger online in the hopes of receiving the advice he’s looking for.

    Summary

    He looks like he does on screen, black emo hair a little like a very attractive bird’s nest, with yellow-checkered cat ears on his head, but unmistakably Phil. Dan is shocked, genuinely, that not everyone here falls head over heels for this man immediately. Surely they must. Surely they’re just doing a better job than Dan is at keeping it in. Maybe he’s not gay, maybe this is just what Phil does to people.

    “Hi,” Phil says. “You’ve got nice whiskers.”

    Dan chose the safety of a girlfriend over Phil, and now he meets Phil in real life for the first time at a YouTuber meetup. And for the first time. And for the first time. And for the- It's a time loop fic.

    Summary

    When you watch a man shave his face in the morning, mutter to himself while he looks for his shoes, bang his shin into the coffee table for the second time in a week and cry out in irritation—how can you help but love him?

    In a sense, Dan has known Phil all his life. Others have known him longer, known him since he took his first breath in front of a live television audience, but it seems to Dan that no one has known him better.

    or: phil’s life is a tv show, and he’s the only one who doesn’t know. dan—actor, fan, hot for a badly dressed bottle blond—auditions for a leading role. this goes about as well as dan howell + reality tv stardom could possibly go.

    Summary

    Phil stays quiet, his lips pressed together, until they’re all sat in their living room, Dan next to Phil on the sofa with far more space between them than they usually have, looking around helplessly.

    “Just what exactly do you remember?” he asks Dan.

    “Uh,” makes Dan. “I know my name is Dan. They told me.”

    Dan has a ski accident and loses his memory. Phil can't do anything but offer him a home - Dan finds that said home is quite obscure.

    “And why would he do that?” Will asks, but it comes out weak, “He’ll either… Sense that it’s a trap and ignore it, or he’ll be disinterested. He tried to kill me Jack, why would he return if he got what he wanted? He has no reason to… To care about me. About that.”

    “I know that he will want to be sure. And I know as well as you do that he didn’t intend to kill you that night. Even if he senses a trap, he’ll consider himself too clever to be caught. He will come back for you. To claim you, one way or another.”

    OR: After the events of Mizumono (S2E13), Jack goes a little off the rails. In an effort to lure Hannibal back and save Will from himself, he kidnaps Will and fakes his death. His plan works, but not in the way he expects...

    Summary

    Dan smiled softly in his sleep, his dimples slowly appearing onto his cheeks. Phil felt his throat tighten as he stared at him laying peacefully in their bed. He couldn't will himself to look away. A warm sensation bloomed in his chest. He was unable to contain the smile that spread across his face, as Dan giggled quietly in his sleep. It felt like his heart was going to burst from the fondness that he felt building up inside him. Slowly, he leaned in closer to Dan's face. How lucky he was that he got to wake up every morning to this. A quiet stillness engulfing the room, sunlight peaking through the curtains as his heart, his whole world, lay peacefully beside him, dozing off without a care in the world.

    Phil wakes up early at the crack of dawn to see Dan sleeping peacefully beside him. Overwhelmed with emotion, he looks back on the life they've shared together and marvels at how much Dan has grown whilst admiring his sleeping figure.

    or
    Phil admires Dan in his sleep and traces the freckles on his face as he thinks about how much he loves him.
