Summary
“Tell me,” he says, softer. “What are you so afraid I’ll do?”
William’s breath stutters, chin dipping, then lifting, barely a movement, barely consent to anything at all. Michael notices, and for a moment he looks almost confused by it, by him, by the way William’s body answers even when his mouth won’t.
“Are you worried that I’ll kiss you?” Michael asks.
William looks away, but Michael follows the small dip of his chin, tracking the heat blooming up his neck.
“You are,” he says quietly, sounding like he’s finally understanding something that’s been in front of him for weeks. His gaze flicks to William’s mouth again, unmistakable, before he drags it back up. “And you’re worried I won’t.”
or what mike wants is so devastatingly simple and so impossibly out of reach: for will to choose him. for will to admit mike is the one he’s been waiting for

Summary
Mike writes Will letters in attempt to get him back.
“Mike…” Will warned as he watched Mike’s chest rise and fall in rapid succession. He was looking at Will now, with glossy eyes, in an entirely new way. He was… pleading. He had this hungry, desperate look in his eyes. He was fighting every muscle in his body, being heldv back by just a single thread. He was dying to reach out, but he couldn’t. He wouldn’t make the first move again. He was giving all the power to Will.
Oh, this was going to be fun

Summary
'I just mean,' Nicholas starts, then looks away like he’s nervous. He has this badly disguised, kicked-kitten expression that Euijoo remembers from when they were younger, when he used to think to himself, I can’t believe there are people scared of him at school. 'All those years alone? So lonely, Juju! Not even any flings—'
'No,' says Euijoo through his teeth, frustrated and humiliated and mostly a little starved. 'There’s no one. Not since—' And then he swallows his own tongue.
Those strange, wonderful, inseparably close teenage years; the freedom in inevitably drifting apart; and the ache of the aftermath.

Summary
AU
They’ve spent their entire lives pretending to hate each other.
The Slytherin Princess and the Slytherin Prince — bound by family ties, ancient bloodlines, and meddling mothers who have been plotting their wedding since they were six years old.Hermione Celeste Zabini, the untameable daughter of Italian grace and Slytherin fire, has always known that Draco Malfoy is insufferable — arrogant, beautiful, and far too aware of both.
Draco Malfoy, heir to the Malfoy legacy, has always sworn that Hermione Zabini drives him to the brink of madness. And perhaps she does… but Merlin help him, he likes it there.Between sharp tongues, stolen glances, and far too many “mistakes” behind locked doors, fire and venom begin to blur into something dangerously close to love.
And as fate — or perhaps two scheming mothers — would have it, the Serpent’s Children may have been destined for each other all along.Enemies to lovers. Pureblood politics. Meddling mothers. Italian fire and Malfoy pride.
In the end, love was never their choice. It was their inheritance. -

Summary
“I’m Midoriya Izuku, but you can call me Izuku, and I’m six years old!” The boy exclaims, shoving his tiny hand into Shouto’s personal space with a wide grin.
Shouto almost doesn't move, but something in those eyes forces him to. He takes the offered hand slowly, shaking it like he’s seen his father do to the other heroes.
“Todoroki Shouto,” is all he says back. His voice is small.
Midoriya Izuku shakes his hand too firmly, too bouncily. Their hands bob up and down between them for a few moments too long.
Shouto thinks it’s fitting. Everything about this boy is… too much.
-----
Shouto meets Izuku at the Pro Hero Ranking Ceremony when is he is six years old.
It quickly becomes his favorite day of the year.

Summary
Mike gazed out over the lake as they steadied the boat, sitting down on the old, splintered planks which served as benches. The gate ripped like fire across the water. The authorities had long since stopped placing security alongside the entire edge of the tear in the earth. It just sat, smoldering, hellish. Somehow gravity played into this whole thing, and the water of the lake… hadn’t fallen through the gate.
The beach they pushed off from was actually oddly tranquil.
Will grabbed the paddles. “God, we should’ve at least left a note or something-”
“Will.” Mike said seriously. “You can go back if you want. I wouldn’t blame you.”
“No, no, I- it’s just bad in there, Mike.”
What had he been thinking? Mike suddenly felt incredibly guilty. Pulling Will back into the Upside Down after what’d happened-
“Shit, Will. I didn’t even think,” Mike said anxiously. “If you-”
Will looked him dead in the eyes. “Absolutely not. I'm not going anywhere.” He began shrugging off his jacket.
Mike’s heart did something funny in his chest. “Cool.”

Karen swallows. “Since Ted passed… I know people expect me to still be sad. And I am. I am. But sometimes it’s not grief. Sometimes it’s just… empty. And then I feel guilty because what kind of person feels relieved that their husband is gone?”
Joyce’s eyes soften. She reaches up, brushing a strand of hair from Karen’s cheek in a way so familiar it aches.
“You’re not a bad person,” she says. “You’re a person who was tired. You carried everything. Alone.”

Until Katsuki fucking Bakugou ends up being your maths and sciences teacher, that is.
—

Summary
When Husk died twenty-three years ago as a pre-teen, he assumed he was in for an eternity of being alone. But then he met Angel, and started thinking Hell might not be so bad after all.
Angel had never let anyone see his true self until Husk came into his afterlife. But Angel was damaged, and not even Husk could chase away the shadows.
After a decade of joy laced with pain, Angel chose to disappear, leaving Husk broken.
Over the last thirteen years, Husk rose through the ranks of Hell to become an overlord, trying to change who he's always been. When Angel returns, asking to start over, they are both thrown back into the past they never truly escaped. Can they break their previous cycle, or are they doomed to repeat their prior mistakes?
Toxic has never felt so damn good.
