Summary
"You sounded a bit like a professor I had back in college," he says, and Izzy swears he sees a vague hint of blush on Lucius' exposed face. Then again, it is early December, and they are outside. "She had this old tin thermos full of soup with her at literally all times, like a—"
"Security blanket," Izzy finishes for him. How often had Ed accused him of just that. He tries not to think about the last time he saw it, saw Ed, saw the anger… "Like a bit of home wherever you go," he says instead.
"Don't tell me you know Dr. Teach!" Izzy does his best not to wince. "I think her first name was Val?" Lucius asks in earnest, finally pulling off his mask.
"Fucking hell," Izzy says. "It's you."
***
Izzy Hands is still healing from the wounds of his old life, dealing with poor self-esteem and vicious bouts of anxiety. At the suggestion of his therapist, he volunteers to be a life drawing model for a local artist's class. Dr. Boodhari failed to mention what to do if Izzy developed feelings for the artist, however, let alone how to handle a love eagerly reciprocated by a former student.

Summary
He gives it a few days, watching the golden hairs grow on Stede’s face, and watching Stede frown and scratch his chin more often. But Stede doesn’t act any different. There’s no secret plans Ed can detect.
Ed confronts Stede over it one afternoon in Stede’s quarters. He’s given the matter a lot of thought, and he’s considered how best to bring it up. Stede is a gentleman, so Ed will broach the subject delicately.
“What the fuck are you doing with your face?”

Summary
In total, Julia Trojan is introduced to Johnny Simpson five times.
After the fifth time, he slides the nearest paper napkin across the table, and pulls a pen out of his back pocket. Julia watches as he painstakingly inscribes something. When he straightens up again, he appears satisfied with himself. A curious look from Julia prompts him to pass the napkin to her.
Julia, it reads. Joined our band. Singer. Brown hair, blue eyes. Nice.

Of Falling and Fearing by 9_of_Clubs

Summary
In the aftermath of Black Panther, Shuri fights to come to terms with seeing her brother fall. Luckily, she doesn't have to do it alone.
--
“I cannot tell my brother that I see him dying in my dreams -” She exhales finally, her hand going up in the direction of her brain. “Again and again. Nor my mother, nor Nakia, who see the same, I am certain. It is easy during the day, when we are altogether and there is so much to do, but when I close my eyes.” For a moment she is younger than he remembers her being, fierce still, undoubtedly, but bearing a weight too much for her shoulders. A realization that, for the first time, she has been outmatched and out done by the world. It’s a hauntingly familiar look.
“So I thought perhaps -”
His lip has turned up at one side, humorlessly, but, something in him reaches for her. “I knew a little bit about that?”

“Not planning to,” Poe says. “Besides. I have things to finish.”
(or: Poe resolutely does not think about bright smiles and bloody helmets and of how he lost it all in the sands of Jakku.)

Finn wakes up and Rey isn't there. Nobody is there.

Summary
“I called him Slip, but he was the best friend I had. He died on Jakku, when we were storming the village to search for the map.” Just like that, Poe’s skin starts to get clammy and he feels the blood drain from his face. “He was shot, blaster-fire…”
Until Finn, stormtroopers had always been nameless, faceless things to Poe. Confessing that he'd taken Slip from Finn is hard enough, but even harder when you're telling a man you might be half in love with.

Summary
“You don’t need a designation now. You get to have a name,” Finn explains patiently to the five ex-Stormtroopers gathered in the cantina like they’re expecting a firing squad.
Poe sits in on Finn's first orientation meeting for a new batch of defected Stormtroopers and begins to realize that Finn might have grasped the concept of naming a little better than the rest of his peers.

Summary
There are some salvageable things though. A virtually untouched heavy slate sign that says, engraved in an ornate script that confirms at least one person in the Hale family had a sense of humor (Stiles has a horrible suspicion it might have been Peter), When You Stop Believing in Santa You Get Underwear.

Summary
Derek’s been letting his job dictate his life ever since he was promoted from freelance photographer to official travel photographer. In his five years of travel, he’s built relationships in countries all across the globe, yet he still returns home after each job as lonely as ever. When he decides to try out the pen pal site Laura recommends to him, he doesn't know what to expect. Derek isn't prepared for Stiles, a small town guy with big dreams of seeing the world. And he certainly isn't prepared to fall in love with him. He has to remind himself that this is just a pen pal thing and not to get carried away. It's not like Stiles could ever like him back.
Right?
