Summary
Thomas Greene's parents never loved him. That much was evident, with every disappointed glare, every second he spent in their presence he knew he was unwanted. He wasn't even sad about it anymore - at least he tried not to be.
Glade Academy would be his escape, his way of stepping out of his parents' tight grasp and into the world. He knew some things would change, but he hadn't expected the human disaster that Newton Isaacs was.
Discovering who he was was never Thomas' biggest concern, but know it's right in front of him, laid out like an unsolved puzzle, and the missing pieces weren't written in his exams, but woven into the souls of those around him.

Summary
Newt felt that if anyone could guide him through the Stygian currents of his mind—the shadowed, treacherous waters he had so recklessly courted—it would be him: Thomas, the antidote to the venomous bite of his depression, drawing him from the underworld of despair. He was unsure whether to be grateful—or to despise himself for needing such a thing—but he trusted that Thomas would not falter, would not turn, even as Newt’s own feelings remained unspoken, unrequited, trailing silently behind, bound by hope and shackled to the certainty of his own devotion. For this moment, relief suffused him—a grim, tenuous comfort that he could still feel anything at all.

Summary
“Do you remember anything?” Doctor asked.
He shook his head, then regretted it when pain lanced across his temples. “No, nothing.”
Not-Doctor growled(?) under his breath. “Not anything?”
“No...?”
“Jesus.” Not-Doctor leaned his forehead against the wall and spat a few choice words into it. “Not even the—“
“Not now.” Maybe-Doctor flashed a pointed look at Not-Doctor. “Let him wake up.” He turned back to the bed. “You remember a name, or are ya good with Tom?”
Maybe-Doctor took his perturbed silence—and increased beeping of the heart monitor—to mean ‘yes’. “Alrighty then, Tom. Jeff, would’ya get some food in here?”
His stomach rumbled at the words. He hadn’t realised how hungry he’d been, but now it was all he could think about.
Doctor—Jeff—nodded and quietly slipped out the door.
Maybe-Doctor held out his hand. “Name’s Newt, Tommy,” the young man said with a grin. “I won’t overwhelm you with the nasty details just yet, but you’ve chosen an unfortunate world to lose your memory in."

“I really can’t stand you,” Jackie snapped, though her voice wavered just enough to betray her. Still, she pushed through. “And I can’t wait for you to leave this ranch and finally get out of my life.”
Shauna let out a dry chuckle, eyes flashing with something sharp. “You’re so desperate for me to fuck you it’s almost cute.”
Or:
Jackie Taylor is about to marry her fiancé, but before the wedding, she decides to spend the summer at her family ranch. What she still doesn’t know is that her parents have hired none other than Shauna Shipman—her former best friend, the one she hasn’t seen in three years—to work there.

Summary
Buck straightened up, looking Eddie up and down. “I’d still take you.”
“You think?”
“I know.” he said, puffing out his chest. They both laughed, and Buck looked down at his feet, before looking earnestly back up at Eddie. “Thank you,” he said quietly, “for having my back”.
Eddie smiled despite himself. “I’ll see you in there, Buckley, and maybe you can have mine.”

Summary
“You gotta be pretty desperate to take a job like this, especially with a kid.”
“Why’s that?” Eddie’s face flickers through a dozen almost-expression, like hail against a window pane, never quite breaking through.
Buck ticks the reason off on his fingers. “You got a ghost story looming over everything. No civilization for miles. The place is old and dark and, well, let’s be honest—creepy. The proprietor is an obvious drunk. That enough for you?”
Eddie scoffs. “You forgot to mention the incredibly off-putting gardener.”
Buck definitely does not smile. “That too.” Then, “So, I figure there’s something equally wrong with you.”

Summary
Eddie was standing in the middle of the dorm with wild eyes, looking panic-stricken, clutching a crying, swaddled baby to his chest.
For a long moment, Buck just blinked at him, trying to process what he was seeing.
“You’re holding a baby,” he eventually blurted out.

“Where are you going with this?” Mason asked, his tone wary.
“I just…” Liam let out a frustrated huff. “When does it stop being ‘taking away pain’ and start being… you know… a full blown make out session?" he continued, the embarrassment in his voice palpable, making him immediately finish the thought in one panicked rush: “Because I don’t know if I’m just reading too much into something that isn’t really there.”
Theo sat up and closed the book he was holding. “Liam,” he called, the conversation in the next room died instantly. “You do realize I’m in the house with you, right?”
Or
Theo's learning how to be human with the baggage of his sociopathic past after puberty, completely kicking and screaming about it.

Summary
“You don’t have to,” Buck says quickly. “You could just leave it. Don’t look.”
Eddie glances up at him, and they both know without saying it that he isn’t going to let this go.
There’s no way he can look away now, not after seeing the way Buck reacted.
“Or maybe just not now,” Buck says softly, stepping closer, his hand settling gently over the screen like he can shield Eddie from what’s on it. “Maybe leave it for now. You’re not… Eddie, you’re not doing well right now. I’ve been so worried about you and this—” his voice catches, “—you… Eddie, please don’t. Just leave it.”
It stings to hear the worry out loud, even if he knew it was there.
He wants to do what Buck says, he wants to trust his friend and give him what he’s asking.
Buck never asks for anything.
Eddie moves Buck’s hand aside gently, giving it a brief squeeze. “Can’t do that, Buck.”
Or; After Christopher leaves for El Paso, Buck decides that he and Eddie should trace their family trees to keep Eddie’s mind occupied elsewhere. The results lead Eddie to face a family secret.

Summary
Missing Chris is less of an emotion these days and more of a physical entity. He’s sure everyone can see that he’s slowly hollowing himself out, that he can’t do much of anything else.
But when Jee laughs at him trying to get his tongue to touch his nose, and Mara loops one of her arms through his to keep him from tossing the rest of his cup in the garbage, Eddie feels solid again.
Maybe he likes yellow birthday cake ice cream after all.
(or, gerrard messes with the team's schedules and eddie 'i just drove my son to flee the state' diaz is the only option to watch mara and jee-yun after school on tuesdays, which, shouldn't be a problem at all, right?)

Summary
As soon as their days at Hellton were over, the poets collectively decided to use their savings to buy a house. Against a backdrop of parental rejections and less-than-ideal jobs, the seven poets took comfort in knowing they had each other to embark on what would be the toughest challenge so far: to be free and pursue their dreams.
or:
The front door creaked, and its sound echoed in the silent night. The faint porch lamp offered such dim illumination that the weather-beaten facade of the house remained mostly shrouded in darkness. Though the house showed the scars of time, seven young people gathered before it, their smiles radiant and their gazes determined.
“Home, sweet home,” said Neil.
“It certainly has potential,” offered Charlie with his signature smirk.

Summary
"He doesn’t move, a temporary monument of senseless indoctrination, indiscriminate fear-mongering, an ideological sacrifice. Condition: Terminated."
Theo decides to stay in Beacon Hills after the events of the Ghost Riders and Monroe's Army. He's not sure why, knows that the town will probably be attacked by some big bad again (spoiler: Theo's right), but while he can't find a logical reason to stay, he can't quite find any push to leave either.
An exploration of Theo Raeken, everything that he's been made to be, and all the potential that remains. It is, first and foremost, a story of Theo's journey, built around the narrative of a new threat in Beacon Hills and eventual Theo/Liam relationship. Will feature appearances from other Teen Wolf characters (to be updated as we go): Alec, Nolan, Sheriff Stilinski, Jordan Parrish, Scott, Stiles, Derek, Peter, the Calaveras.
Starts in season 6, goes past the finale from chapter 3 onwards. Inspired by Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and Albert Camus' essay, The Myth of Sisyphus.

"I swear, Evan, if you jump out of a perfectly good plane, I’ll…” she trailed off, trying to think of an appropriate threat. Buck smirked, amused, and she thinned her lips. Maybe a low blow is what he needed. “I’ll tell Eddie you’re in love with him.” Buck paled, and Maddie looked back at him, unimpressed.
—
The boys take different paths to process their grief, and somehow still end up at the same place.
Featuring: Undiagnosed ADHD, sensory seeking behavior, bad coping skills, Buck 1.2, Eddie figuring some stuff out and being the one with his shit together (for once), and a scheming Maddie.
