    Summary

    “It was foolish,” Jo chokes out. “That letter was so foolish, and I—”

    “But was it true?” Teddy asks, half-desperate. Then, an open wound given voice, “Was it true, Jo?”

    In which there is a different road.

    Summary

    The more Sebastian talked to you, the more he let you in. And the more he let you in, the more of him you saw. And the more of him you saw, the more of him you wanted to see.

    That’s what liking is, you think. That’s why you say, I think.

    Sebastian squints. Probably at a wayward semicolon that kept breaking the whole damn program. He rubs his eyes, pulls his hands away from his keyboard. “Did you say you like me?”

    Shit.

    Or, three times you think something about Sebastian, and one time you know it.

    Summary

    “So stay with me. Forever.”

    You make a weak stab at a joke. “For Infinity, you mean?”

    “Yeah.” Satoru turns to look at you and your heart jumps at the clear expression on his face. There’s not a hint of humour: for once, he’s fully and completely serious. “For the rest of my life, and for all the lives after.”

    -

    You meet Satoru on 7th September, 1996.

    Some time later, you realise you love him.

    Summary

    “I would have found you,” he says, more resolutely than you’ve ever heard him. His fingers tighten around your wrists, as if to reassure his tremulous soul that you are really there, a warm constant beneath his body. “It’s like—you can’t miss the sun, can you? It’s either glaring in your face or trickling through the clouds, or if it is gone, it’s temporary. The night draws to an end and the storms always pass, and then the sun is right back there, where it was always meant to be. I’d always find you.”

    “In every lifetime?”

    “Every lifetime,” he repeats. “You’re inescapable.”

    or: now that he has you, he's never letting go.

    Summary

    “One large iced caramel macchiato with fifteen pumps of vanilla syrup, heavy whipping cream, light ice, and extra caramel drizzle, please,” he says, cheerfully. 

    You stare at him for a long moment. He stares back at you. Maybe. You don’t know because he’s wearing blindfolds.

    “There’s a Starbucks down the street,” you finally say.

    You are the co-owner of a small café in a small, eccentric district in Tokyo that is notorious for bizarre murders and supernatural occurrences.

    You think you’ve seen it all, but it turns out that nothing comes close to the man wearing a bad Kakashi cosplay who terrorizes you with his increasingly complicated and awful drink orders.

    All you wanted was a nice part time job to scrape by. But if you had known how much of a smug sass-master Akira Kurusu would turn out to be, you’d have thought twice about agreeing to tutor him.

    Summary

    Daddy is quiet for a long time, eyes fixed on her face.

    “Ok,” he says evenly. “Thalassa got the axe. What’s my punishment?”

    “It’s not about punishment, Daddy.” Trucy starts the car back up. “You do that just fine all by yourself.”

    ~~

     

    Trucy is going to get her happy little family together or kill them all trying.

    Summary

    “Leon – Leon, shoot the eye! Shoot the eye!”

    “You shoot the eye!”

    “You trust me that much?!”

    “I can duck!”

    “Bullets?!”

    Frantic and too anxious to use the handgun, you throw a flash grenade. It doesn’t do anything. Despite being chased by a mutated and inhuman monster, Leon still has time to throw you an incredulous look.

    In your stupidity, you forgot to pull the pin.

    (Alternatively: It is September 1998. You are nineteen years old and living in Racoon City. Or, you were, until about five days ago. Now you're just surviving, and badly at that. But hey, at least you've got Leon Kennedy by your side, right?)

    (Alternatively alternatively: Your life sucks. The end.)

    When the head of King Blaiddyd's security notices a busker in the dead of Fhirdiad winter, he turns his orderly life upside down to figure out what makes her tick.

    If only music and romance were enough to stop the Agarthan Cult threatening a violent takeover of Fhirdiad. Talk about bad timing!

    Summary

    For Penny, "self" and "home" are complicated. Who is she now and where does she belong, now that the stars have long finished falling? Who is she supposed to be when there's not a screen between her and the people around her? How is she supposed to treat her friends now that they're beside her?

    Also, how can she just ignore that Juliana's giving Arven an APPLIN? IN THE MIDDLE OF CLASS?

    HELLO? ISN'T ANYONE ELSE SEEING THIS?

     

    OR: There are three people in Juliana and Arven's relationship. Maybe even four.

    Sakura recognises the flashy redheaded boy in her year the moment she walks through the door at her new summer job.

    Ending up paired with him in some weird mermaid role-play was not part of the plan.

    Once, everyone knew that it was best to keep a bit of cold iron ready, and that one should never, ever, insult the Fair Folk.

    Now, Darcy's family is one of the few left in England with enough Sight to see things as they really are.

    Such as the fact that Miss Elizabeth Bennet is not at all human.

    Summary

    “I have come across a matter that might be aided by someone with your… particular expertise,” Franziska said, with the ever so hesitant tone of someone who had reluctantly acknowledged that spirit channeling existed but wasn’t quite sure what they thought of it yet. It was a surprisingly specific tone that Maya had come to recognize over the years. “Are you available for consultation?”

    “Consultation, huh? I don’t know,” Maya teased. “The fee for consultation with the Master of Kurain is pretty hefty, Franziska. Are you sure you’re willing to pay it?”

    There was a brief pause on the other end of the call, and then Franziska responded, “I am sure that appropriate payment can be arranged with Interpol.”

    “I - no, that was - I was kidding.” Truthfully, she’d been ready to propose that Franziska take her out for burgers afterwards.

    Summary

    Chunsung waits for her at his cafe. Perhaps she’d come, like she promised.

    She never does.

    He tries not to let it bother him - tries drowning it under the loud grinding of coffee beans and chattering customers. But each time the doorbell jingles, only to lift his head to see that it’s not her, never her, becomes too much to bear.

    Then one day, like a miracle, he sees her in Gwanghwamun.

    Summary

    “That’s not it.” Robin, eyes still hard and furious, takes a step closer.

    “Then what is it?” Her voice is raised and her eyes are fiery and Nancy can tell she’s pissed now. And Nancy allows her to be angry over the fact that she thought Nancy was homophobic, because who wouldn’t be angry about that, but then her own anger sets in again.

    She’s said her piece. And Robin isn’t listening. Robin, it seems, wants to have it out, right here, right now. On their fucking information retrieval mission inside of the creepiest fucking house Nancy’s ever seen. Robin wants this fight at the most inconvenient time possible. They’re supposed to be combing this goddamn house for clues, relics, anything to help them in what could be another fight for their lives. And here Robin is, derailing them.

    Nancy finally fucking snaps—for real, this time.

    “Fine. Fine!” She yells, throwing her arms up in the air, breathing short and fast. “You wanna know what it is, you wanna know why I don’t like you?”

    “Oh, please, enlighten me.” Robin spits back and takes another step closer, eyes ablaze.

    “It’s because you’re an asshole!”

    Summary

    Robin reaches for her. She slides a tentative hand towards her, palm up, knuckles skimming over Nancy’s thigh, the tips of her fingers twitching ever so slightly. 

    Nancy stares. And stares. 

    She wants to tell Robin, don’t offer your hand to me. If I hold it now, I might never let go. 

    She wants to tell herself, religion has taught you to be merciful. So be that. Let her go. Don’t take her hand when you might rip it clean off. 

    or: Robin is Nancy’s safe place.
