    Summary

    Looking down, Ronan gently bounced the toe of his sneaker against the baseboard. “I know you don’t like me.”

    “Haven’t given me much reason to.”

    Ronan laughed, that stupid little snort. “Fair. But I want you to.”

    “So things won’t be weird with Gansey?”

    “No. I mean, yes, but that’s not—” Shaking his head, Ronan lowered the bag of peas, finally actually looking at Adam. “Look, I don’t know how to” —Ronan looked pained, but went on, voice low— “flirt.”

    Adam had been lying down on his side, eyes open just enough to see Ronan, but now he pushed himself up with one arm. Surely he’d misheard Ronan. “Punching a guy in the face was your attempt to flirt?” 

    --

    Adam hates his new teammate, but the feeling isn't mutual.

    Summary

    Silence, agonizing in its completeness. Then, “I think I’m being hunted.”

    Ronan swore. He was already in motion, pounding up the stairs to sort through Declan’s store of weapons. “Don’t take cover anywhere you can be cornered. Move if you think they’re close. Turn on the ‘Find My Friend’ app, I’ll track your phone.”

    “It’s not that, really.” Adam’s voice was faux-even, which made the quake at the end more obvious. Suddenly, Ronan realized what was off about the tone: terror, all-encompassing and uncontrollable. “I think I’m dying.”

    Summary

    Just for the record, Adam didn’t want to be there in the first place. He was already half deaf, and the last thing he needed was to lose the other half in the mosh pit of a rock concert. He didn’t even like rock concerts.
    Unfortunately for him, he did like Blue.
     

     
    Ronan is a Grammy award-winning rock star with a shady reputation, Adam is a mechanic with a maybe-girlfriend. When Blue drags him to the Second Sleeper concert, he gets wrapped up in a scandal with himself and Ronan at the center.

    Summary

    Bakugou Katsuki likes to fight.

    Well– he likes to win, actually. But a win is only worth a damn when you have to fight for it, and there’s only one person in this stupid class who actually can put up a fight against Katsuki. That’s why the guy makes a halfway decent sparring partner – Icyhot’s strong. Icyhot’s powerful. He makes every damn thing look effortless, but when Katsuki’s his opponent, he has to actually try for once.

    So then– what the hell is he supposed to do when the half and half bastard stops trying?


    Or: Bakugou and Todoroki have an arrangement to spar after school for stress relief. But when Todoroki starts looking and acting strangely, Bakugou starts to pay a little closer attention.
