    Summary

    He takes a deep breath.

    “I want him the way I should have wanted Jane.”

    Max is quiet, when he finally manages to look at her again. Her brows draw together slightly, pausing.

    “But,” she whispers, in the space between them. “Will is a boy.”

    Mike feels new tears well up behind his lids.

    “Max.”

    Something shifts in her expression, her mouth parting slightly.

    “Oh.”

    It’s quiet. Mike’s mouth pulls itself into a bitter smile. “Yeah, oh.”

     

    or, it’s summer ‘90, and while everyone is off to college, Mike and Max scoop up ice cream in the rebuilt Starcourt Mall, reluctantly bonding over their shared hatred for children (and Mike’s little sister and idle friends) who just can’t seem to leave them alone.

    or, 5 years later, it isn’t Robin and Steve working at Scoops Ahoy: it’s Max and Mike (who also get accidentally drugged. It's definitely not Steve's fault.)

    (inspired by that gorgeous fanart by falloutlaw on twitter!)

    Summary

    “I’m starting to worry about your health, all this pizza can’t be good for you.” Renjun says by way of greeting. “I could’ve sworn Yangyang told me you called this morning.”

    “Yeah, but you weren’t there. So, here I am again.” Jaemin responds like it’s the easiest thing in the world.

     

    Or: Poor, underpaid Renjun has his hands full at a chaotic pizza parlor when a certain regular caller with a brilliant laugh, a penchant for flirting on the job, and way too many pizza puns starts to make his shifts a little more...cheesy.

    Summary

    Rumour has it that to make it onto SMU's dance team, you have to get into the good graces of not only the team captain Ten Lee, but also his best friend. Unaware of this, Kun wonders why he's suddenly surrounded by freshmen bending over backwards to do him favours. Ten is not amused.
