Summary
Sherlock is quiet against him, and loose against him, and after some time he presses reverent words into John's shoulder, strokes a little at the skin of John's back and finally eases off into a startlingly deep sleep. So John swallows the words down, buries them. They can try to dig them out later. (Or how Mary decides to solve a personal problem by fiddling with another problem. Sherlock is upset. John tries to be nothing much at all. Not nearly as much fun as it might sound. First in a series.)

Summary
Ares has seen many, many wars, and even more fights, and he has never once witnessed a single soul able to compare to Death’s intensity when forced to take up his sword. Ares has considered wars only for the joy of seeing Thanatos defend souls from the Keres many, many times.
He does not, because he understands fighting is what Thanatos does last, and he quite likes Nyx’s son.

Summary
Even just the phrase “trigger words” makes Steve want to punch something, and as soon as he gets to the gym, he runs up to an industrial-size bag and doesn’t even wrap his hands, just starts whaling on it. He holds back only enough so he doesn’t immediately rip open the punching bag or send it flying off its hook.
After an hour of simmering he finally completely loses his temper, and the bag goes sailing off into the corner. He stares at it like it’s insulted his mother. His hands are bruised and bleeding but healing fast; he clenches his fists, reveling in the bright spots of pain.
There’s a whisper of a noise across the room and it’s only instinct that makes him turn around and step sideways.

Summary
Jean and Eren slowly but surely feel out the parameters of their relationship over the next few days. Though they still spit fire at each other at any given opportunity, there is now a very different fire brewing that they both are all-too-aware of.
Things come to a screeching halt at the arrival of some MP officers — one of whom Jean knows very well. Eren never liked the MPs, and he has fewer reasons than ever to like them now, but in his eagerness to prove their uselessness to Jean he oversteps and lands them both in a very uncomfortable position.
It takes a brutal fight, some gut-wrenching vulnerability, and a shit ton of patience for the boys to make up and eventually come to terms with what they are.
And a moonlit lake is a rather picturesque spot for the occasion.

Summary
Hawks let out a forceful exhale that might have been a laugh. “Alright. You wanna fight? Let’s fight.”
Tomura narrowed his eyes. “Seriously?”
Hawks took off his flight jacket and tossed it to the side, rolling his shoulders. “Seriously. Doctor says you’re good for ‘normal activity.’ And hey, beating the crap out of your parole officer counts, right?”
“Yeah, I’m assuming ‘normal’ doesn’t include breaking my master out of prison, letting him take over my mind, and becoming an eldritch abomination.”
Silence.
“Yeah… you clearly need to work through some shit.”
