Summary
Shep couldn’t believe it. He was standing there, in the middle of Times Square. And it was New Year’s Eve. He knew he wouldn’t be here had he not developed his friendship with Anderson Cooper. And he wouldn’t he here had he not quit his job at Fox. Or his schooling. Everything was weird because it was all he could have ever dreamed of. All journalists older and more experienced than him could dream of. But he deserved this. It was his moment. Okay, technically it was Anderson and Andy’s moment, but still, he was there to share in it.
Shep joins the New Year’s Eve Live team, reporting from Times Square. Meanwhile, Jon hosts a New Year’s party.
Takes Place on December 31st 2024 and January 1st 2025.

Summary
In most ways, life wasn’t the same without Jon. But The Order of Osiris couldn’t keep sitting around, waiting for him to wake up from his coma. At some point, they had to move on. And there was no longer a risk of them getting meningitis themselves, but it served as a cautionary tale for them to go to the doctor immediately, though for some, it bordered on paranoia.
Jon Stewart is sick. Like really sick. Everyone is trying to move on with their lives and adjust to the new normal. Only Stephen Colbert just can’t seem to.

The prompt read "This isn't really a porn prompt but I didn't know where else to beg for a Hunger Games AU in which Jessica Williams is the latest tribute from a non-career District and Jon is her mentor." I kind of feel like I should apologize for the fill.
