    Summary

    Aang wasn’t sure when he started crying. He wasn’t sure when his friends joined him on the balcony, either. But when they all wrapped their arms around him in a massive, ridiculous, everything-he-could-have-ever-wanted group hug…

    They were Aang’s present. His friends grounded him, keeping him in the now. And yet, if he opened his eyes?

    Aang suspected he would fly.

    Summary

    mike rides aimlessly through the empty streets of hawkins, each turn a familiar loop that leads nowhere. he rides like this when he feels useless, when the weight of everything feels too heavy to carry. today, his bike brings him to a place he hasn’t seen in ages, somewhere quiet and forgotten. maybe it’s the silence that draws him in, or the unspoken things that have been left hanging, but now feels like the time to face them.

    Summary

    Truth be told, she hadn’t meant to wait exactly eleven years.

    The days are long but peaceful. It took a while—almost two years, to be precise—for the tension to release from her muscles. To finally relax within the walls of her small apartment, or out under the Icelandic sun, and no longer feel as though she is being hunted, watched. She had to remind herself, actively, waking up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat with a frightful whimper or a wanting name on her lips, that Hawkins was some three thousand miles away. That no one is looking for a girl named Eleanor Iverson in Hella, Iceland.

    Summary

    Maybe it isn’t as unbalanced as she feared... he needs her just as much as she needs him. She isn’t so different from Mike, or anyone else, because at the end of the day they’re all scared of being alone.
