    Summary

    A waiter glides up to them, carrying a silver tray laid with delicate looking pastries topped with swirls of white foam and spilling with tiny, glittering fish eggs. Ignoring Ray, the waiter holds the tray up to Pete.
    Don’t eat anything, Ray begs him silently, chest tight with horror. He thinks of the old book of Greek myths his father had read to him, of Persephone who was condemned to the underworld because she ate a handful of pomegranate seeds. Please don’t eat anything.

    Or: Every year, the winner of the Long Walk is honored with a celebratory party in the nation's capital. Despite everything, this year is no different.

    Summary

    #47, Pete McVries, has a girl back home. It takes a while to get him to open up about it, he’s cagey about his home life, the tinfoil wrapped package of cookies in his pack, and the photograph he keeps folded into quarters and tucked into his shirt pocket. Almost everyone’s tried to get a peek at it over his shoulder at one point or another, and Olson even gets a warning for interference when he tries to snatch it from his hands.  

    “C’mon,” Olson whines. “Why don’t you want us to see her? She ugly or something?”

    “Prettiest thing you’ve ever seen.” McVries is finally coaxed into saying. “Big brown eyes, red hair, soft all over.”

    Summary

    “Shit, Billy are you alright?!” Steve is pale, Billy notices, he always goes pale. Purses his lips and stares, a thousand things hiding behind that expression that Billy can even begin to name. He looks oddly human like that. Worried.

    Fussing, like Billy’s one of his damn kids.

    He snorts, and adjusts his grip on his side. The drying blood on his knuckles itches, and he tries to focus on that rather than the searing pain lancing through him every time he inhales. “Yeah. Clearly,” he grunts. “You gonna let me in, or what?”

    He sways, shoulder knocking against the doorframe, and Steve’s hand shoots out to steady him.

    “Yeah. Shit. Yeah, sorry, I—come—come here.”

    “That’s the plan, baby.”

    Summary

    Every goddamn day Billy regrets moving in with Heather. His shitty studio apartment was just fucking fine, thank you very much. Even with the mold under the radiator. And the cracked window pane. And dysfunctional neighbours. All that aside, he was perfectly happy with his old place. 

    True, his scarred up lungs couldn’t handle the constant draftiness, and he’d had more than one panic attack when the arguing next door sounded a little too familiar, but…

    But at least there he didn’t have to deal with Steve goddamn Harrington and his stupid tiny shorts.
