    Summary

    Between a rocky home life, a ton of new trauma, and memories that aren't his own, Nicholas is struggling. He's found a way to cope, but he's embarrassed. At least Terry Jr doesn't mind that his best friend sometimes feels more like a toddler than a teenager.

    Summary

    Written for day 5 of Kiddads Week 2025! Title (as well as chapter titles) Are from "My Evil Twin" by They Might Be Giants. Rated T for language.

    Nicholas looks shockingly like himself, with the exception of jewelry stuck in every bump and crevice of his face. When he clears his long curly hair off of his face, he can better gauge what he looks like – a teenage rebel.

    Nicholas and Nick wake up in each others body. Whatever will they do?

    Summary

    Morgan Foster’s house rang with silence, still and flooded with light in the way the afternoon could make the world seem a photograph of a memory. Some long-divorced and quietly murmuring instinct recorded the notion for a poem which would never make paper.

    The silence would surely kill her.

    Glenn lives, returning at the end of the adventure to an empty house and nothing much more.

    Meanwhile, Morgan is caught in a miserable state. Jodie and Nicholas have fucked off to Hell of all places, leaving her with nothing but a few forlorn hugs goodbye and promises to visit. And then, she’s getting these dreams about having a kid with her college boyfriend. Which definitely never, ever happened.

    ...Right?

    Summary

    “Is Daddy gonna come to my play…?” Nick asked. Morgan sighed, and she didn’t look him in the eye.

    “I hope he does, honey, but he has a show tonight…” Morgan said. “When I talked to him this morning, he said he was going to try extra hard to make it home to see your play.”

    “I hope he gets to come because I’m gonna be Santa…” Nick said.

    “Daddy wants nothing more than to see you be Santa,” Morgan said. She tried to control her anger, remembering every time for the past three months that she told Glenn not to plan a show for the week before Nick got out for winter break. Yes, they needed the money, but damn—Nick needed his dad.

    Summary

    Nick never really knew his mother. As much as he tries not to, he blames Glenn for that.

    -

    Glenn doesn’t talk about his emotions much. This leads to missing information.

    Summary

    Lark isn’t at school on Tuesday. It’s the first sign somethings off and it goes completely over Nicky’s head at first. Lark’s attendance has never been great, sure Sparrow seems like a nervous wreck but that isn’t too odd for her. Nicky is worried, but not enough to be deeply concerned, since it’s common for him to skip days when he’s too overwhelmed. (Not that he’d admit that as the reason to anyone besides Nicky.) Then suddenly it’s Thursday and there’s no sign of him.

    Summary

    Glenn has been mostly dealing with being dead. It's a pretty sick deal. He doesn't have to maintain things like eating, paying taxes, and the horrible misery that comes with thinking too hard about everything he's lost. He gets claws as built-in guitar picks, he gets to be cooler than before, and he gets some peace and quiet for once. Unfortunately, this doesn't last, and Morgan shows up in Hell. Oh dear.

    Glenn is still in love. Head over heels in love. Totally whipped for this woman. He's not very good at hiding it.

    Summary

    But regardless, Nicky sits still in his chair and looks down at a meal that he's barely touched, with all three of his parents arguing loudly, on his birthday that no one seems to have remembered. For a moment earlier he thought maybe he’d forgotten his own birthday, but between everything that's changed with having two different childhoods and a whole lot of inter-dimensional bullshit, December 21st has always been Nicky’s birthday.

    Summary

    The Streep/Hemsworth/Close/Freeman/Foster/Swift family did not pass on last names. The did pass on Hanahaki syndrome, a fatal affliction where flowers will bloom from one's throat when in love, unless it's reciprocated. Unfortunately, they also passed on emotional incompetence.

    Hanahaki AU following Meryl, Christine, Glenn, and Nick. Some of these are happy endings, some not, some depends on reader perceptive. As always, I project on my favorite dysfunctional family. Yes, I named Christine 'Christine Hemsworth', and her own mother is named 'Pierce Brosnan'. The first one because its funny, the second because it's also funny and because of Mama Mia.

    TW for discussions of divorce and parents fighting.
