Summary
Katie Wilmot had spent her whole life being careful. Of her words, her actions, and other people's feelings. She tried to take up as little space as possible. On her first day at Tommen, she meets Patrick. It wasnt love at first sight, more so familiarity. That was up until New Year's Eve 2003.
Patrick Feely buries it the way he buries everything. Under sarcastic remarks, late nights, hookups and a drink. Katie, however, chooses the safer option. Hughie Biggs. He's kind and predictable, exactly what she needs in her life.
Whatever almost happened between them is something they can't talk about, because what lived and died between them haunts them. As the years tick by, this fragile peace starts to break.

Also there's a fun side-plot where Krupp gets a cat.

SEQUEL!!! PLEASE READ "The Weight of Want" if you're interested in this story :) Do NOT read the description if you have not read or finished "The Weight of Want". Also, tags contain some minor spoilers so I will include warnings in the notes in the first chapter if you don't want to get those.

Unfortunately for him, Aizawa Shouta, his art professor, and him have had quite the history. Niko's learned to resent him, and Aizawa has been just as cold right back to him.
After so much that happened between them, Niko can't help but antagonize him every chance he gets. Perhaps it's not good for his decaying mental state, but the tension between them is too much for him to resist.

Summary
Mikhail shook as he, his mother, and his sisters were led into the prison camp that would be their home for the next few years. Just fourteen years old, he'd seen his father put to death, a death that began their own damnation into the hell that was the gulag. His family was worked all day, every day, given only thin soups and porridge to live from. Every night they were forced into the cramped barracks, forced to huddle together with strangers to keep warm. Every night Mikhail would prey for their deliverance. For ten long years he prayed every night, growing bigger but much much weaker. The guards used him as an example when any of the newcomers tried anything. It all came to an end one day when a strange dying old man came to him while he held his sister. "God isn't listening my son. I know of someone who can be persuaded… for the right price." He croaked, voice not unlike that of a raven. "I have nothing I can give." Mikhail replied desolately. "Oh my… no. That is where you are wrong. You still have one thing the guards cannot take from you." The old man reached out a bony hand to tap at Mikhail's chest, right over his heart.

Summary
“Expecto Patronum,” he murmurs.
I lift my wand.
My voice comes out rough, but steady.
“Expecto Patronum.”
Silver light erupts from my wand — bright, sudden, alive.
Not a weak wisp. Not a sputter.
A flood.
It pours into the air, gathering, shaping, moving with a will of its own. It’s cold and clean and beautiful, the way moonlight is beautiful — distant but undeniable. -

Summary
Something sinister happened to the Phantomhive twins last summer...
What started out as harmless guidance curdled into something unrecognizable. Sinful. Now, Ciel has an insatiable craving for attention that he'd sworn he'd never desire.
When a chance at normalcy presents itself, will Ciel be strong enough to break the silence or repeat the same lessons they were taught in secret?
***
“Shh, shh,” Astre tossed Ciel's hand aside and pressed his lips to the reddened cheek, “I don't like it when you call out another man's name. You say my name, not his, sweetheart.”
When was the last time they were innocent and free of debauched influence? When was the last time their parents cared about what happened to them?
Would they ever be the same?

Summary
"So what do you do in your spare time? Usually? When you're not, um ..."
Jake tails off, perhaps realising the implications of his question. When you're not - being tied to an A-frame and flogged by a bored, part-time dominatrix? Being blackmailed with evidence of the same? Being babysat, the threat to your life severe enough to justify round-the-clock police protection, but only by South Sussex's most junior and inexperienced officer?
"I do rather a lot of ironing," Felix says, instead.
Felix Kane's secret activities become public. A story about fast cars, loose morals, and love in unlikely places.

Summary
Dr. Laurence Welsh had been researching for the entirety of his academic career, but nothing quite so enticing had ever come up as Project LATHE. It was 1954, and he had been selected by MI6 to join another psychologist in the facility in Arizona. Of course, he had to meet his new research partner, Dr. HJ Easterman, before getting started. Drugs were his specialty, and paired with Easterman's expertise on the idea of brainwashing, he knew the project was sure to take off. He couldn't have been more excited.
(Or, Easterman falls for a guy and can’t fully get over internalized homophobia and it ends up really really bad)
