    Summary

    Rey is a barista who never forgets a face.
    One day, a man walks into her café refusing to show his.

    -----

    [The scar] crept up from under his collar along his neck, and her eyes traced the length of it. The part that disappeared under the thick, dark waves covering his right eye was still stitched closed with fresh black sutures twisting deep into his skin. He must have been split open to the bone.

    Whatever happened had hurt, in more ways than one, and that hurt was reflected now in the way his lovely mouth dropped open in fear and how horror darkened the one eye fixated on Rey’s face.

    -----

    A Reylo coffeehouse AU where a very sweet, very shy, but very physically and emotionally broken artist Ben meets a sunshiny but lonely barista/college student Rey - and they help heal one another.

    Summary

    It happened when you were sixteen.

    You hadn’t seen it coming. Why would you? Soulmates weren’t a thing by the time you were born. It was an old concept, a montage of grainy, black and white photos you might see in a museum, or the history channel if there was nothing else to watch.

    And yet, it happened to you.

    Summary

    You are a new Handmaid, your first assignment is at the home of Commander Kylo Ren. His Wife hates you. And you wished he did, too. It'd make it much easier to ignore the way he looks at you, the way he speaks to you, when she isn't there. But the hardest thing to ignore is the way he touches you.

    Summary

    L’Automne s’assombrit ainsi qu’une Bachante
    Au sortir des festins empourprés. Elle chante
    La moite lassitude et l’oubli des baisers.

    (Richard and Francis, post-canon. Nothing goes according to plan.)

    Summary

    The guilt and embarrassment were eating Reggie alive. Who gets addicted to spying on their friends fucking around? He was sure that therapist he stopped seeing in the eighth grade—too expensive, his dad decided, and, unnecessary, his mom agreed—would have him committed. 

    Reggie got fixated on things a lot. The color red. His bass. Barney the Dinosaur—it wasn’t just for kids, okay? But his fixations always ended or mellowed down into a favoritism that passed as normal. This was not fading, and it was never going to be normal. 

    He was starting to realize just how damaged he was.

    ~

    OR: Reggie can’t stop watching Luke and Alex.
