    Summary

    The first few times, he excuses it as rusty social skills, the same as Joel.

    She always gravitates to his brother, after all. When she slides in at the last minute into an empty chair beside him or presses right to his side in a crowd, leaving no room for him there as well, it’s possible that she’s just nervous about being around strangers. He takes the loss and stays where he is, content that there will be plenty of time to spend time with Joel when his kid is ready to have some space.

    And then the little punk pulls a chair out from under him at dinner one day when he goes to take the empty space beside his brother.

    Stunned to find himself on the floor, he blinks up at a round face smiling down at him innocently.

    “Oops,” she says, with poorly hidden satisfaction. “Sorry Tomtom, didn’t see you there.”

    (back in Jackson, Ellie is faced with sharing Joel's attention with Tommy) (she's not handling it well)

    Summary

    Sarah always hated green beans.

    Even when all of her food was pulverized baby mush, her little nose would wrinkle the moment the tip of the spoon made it into her mouth, and she would throw her pudgy hands into the air and baby-shrill at him for the audacity of the attempt. When he tried to trick her into eating them with some idea of expanding her palate by slipping in a bit between spoonfuls of yogurt, he’d spent a week having to pry tiny fingers off of spoons when she insisted on checking each bite for further betrayal.

    More than one supper had ended with a plastic cartoon character plate flung across the kitchen, green bean shrapnel spread across the floor. He’d usually made her go to bed early those nights, whether she ate anything else or not. It had felt like the right thing at the time, a life lesson about hard choices and consequences.

    How he regrets those nights now.

    (Sarah and Ellie both hate green beans) (Joel's approach to both is different)

    Summary

    "You asshole," Javi pants. "What if I'd had someone with me?"

    Steve huffs out a breath, something akin to a laugh, and dips his head down low enough to press his face into Javi's shoulder. Every hair on Javi’s body stands on-end at the feeling of Steve's lips mouthing at his ear, sliding down to his neck. He experiences the sensation of Steve’s smile as a physical thing, Steve’s teeth pressing into his jugular. "Suprised you don't."

    Summary

    Behind the pretty faces of the fashion industry, there is an ugliness that no make up or latest Chanel design can hide. Models are monsters hidden behind masks, circulating and circulated by white lies and white lines alike.

    Even so, Namjoon had hoped that there was a possibility for life to bloom.

    Summary

    "good afternoon," jeongguk says. "do you have a few moments to listen to the word of god?"

    the young man in front of him crosses his arms, tilts his head in thought. "depends...what's he saying these days?"

    (jeongguk spends the final days before the rapture trying to turn lost souls to the word of god and comes across seokjin who challenges all of his beliefs).
