Sparkling Cities by Avid_Reader_UsedToBeGuest
Fandoms: The Outsiders - S. E. Hinton, The Outsiders (1983)

Summary
Dallas Winston sat on a hill overlooking the city, loosely gripping his knees, which sat about halfway up to his chest. Hanya Yanagihara’s A Little Life lay sprawled out next to him, open to a random page after he’d tossed it aside. The sun had set long before he’d finished, revealing naught but the starless night he now stared at, but he’d plowed through the 830-page brick of a book in the dark, hoping, hoping against hope, simply hoping that it would make him feel something. They’d said it would; Soda spent almost three days sobbing, and Steve couldn’t even think straight for twenty-four hours after he’d finished it, but Dally had yet to shed a tear. Why couldn’t he feel? Joy, sadness, anger, anything was an open relief to the (emotionless) mounting hunk of lead building in his stomach. Was he a sociopath? A psychopath? Those seemed like the only plausible answers he could think of.
- OR -
Dally considers his choices up until now and has a long think about...well, life.

Summary
The wind howls and groans, soaring through the trees. Leaves twirl down, and bushes shuffle to tunes only they could hear, like old dance partners. Rain barrages down onto my roof, and I worry the shingles would tumble out as I lay splayed across my bathroom floor, my latest piece of artwork hastily scribbled across my torso and down my thighs. Darry would skin me alive if he found me like this. He’d always been a mother hen, fussing over even a torn knee.
I may have gone a bit overboard, this time.

Summary
As teammates, it was Naruto and Sasuke’s job to be a little (or more than a little) overprotective of Sakura. So when they notice a ring, worn on the so called engagement finger, they just can’t leave it alone. They are determined to find the truth, but it’s not.. exactly expected.

Summary
Sicktember daily prompt fills.
Day 30: "Get back in bed!"
“Wind, come on. I get it, but you’re not going to get better if you don’t rest.”
Wind shuffled sideways, away from his bedroll. Twilight already caught him and dumped him back in it once; it wasn’t going to happen a second time.
“That’s rich coming from you, Twilight.”

Summary
“Are you scared, dear Will?”
A soft, near silent whimper.
“I feel as if I’m begging my father to steady the boat again, and he’s yelling back that it isn’t him.”
“Will.” Firm, abrupt. Will’s eyes shot back up, forced to hold contact. “Are you scared?”
He didn’t want to say it.
“Yes.”
---
What seems to be a typical conversation between Hannibal and Will pulls the empath over the edge.
