Summary
The line between love and obsession is a thin one. You may not even realise you've crossed it before it's too late. You may not even realise you've crossed it at all.
Knox never did. And it was Chris who paid the price.
And Charlie? He did nothing to stop him.
(Or, a fic about Knox slowly losing his grip on reality because of his "love" for Chris, and Charlie's guilt for not seeing the signs earlier)

Kiss Me Now Or Fuck Off by alightelixe

Summary
Based on a prompt by @liv-333 on Tumblr
When Thomas gets a call from Teresa saying she can't make it to their date, he thinks about throwing his cinema tickets in the trash. But, being the greedy sucker that he is, he decides to go and see the film on his own. The only problem, however, is that it's the sequel—and he hasn't seen the first part yet.
Luckily, a very handsome stranger in front of him googles the film plot, which Thomas catches when he leans in to read over his shoulder. But his glances do not go unnoticed.

A Not-So-Lonely Christmas by alightelixe

Summary
"A sob coming from his right pulled his mind back into the real world, catching him off-guard. He turned toward the sound and saw someone sitting on one of the wooden benches, holding their head in their hands.
For a moment, he wanted to pretend he hadn't seen whoever was sitting there and go back to his much more joyful fantasies. He was about to do so when the sobs got louder, the person's shoulders evidently shaking. It was impossible to ignore. Newt took a deep breath before walking toward the bench, the boy sitting on it now slightly more visible.
"Are you all right, mate?"
Or, when Newt decides to go for a walk on Christmas Eve, he comes across a boy who's close to freezing to death. He couldn't possibly let him die out there, so he takes him back to his flat, where he tries everything that comes to mind to get Thomas warm again.

Summary
"In some ways, Welton was what he’d expected it to be. Its grand entrance hall, long-stretched grasslands, neatly dressed students, and various other things had been exactly as he’d imagined. Though, his roommate and his friends had not.
It wasn’t that Todd didn’t like them- they were alright, for private school snobs, anyway - but they were so intrusive. He’d always been more of a private person, especially in places where he didn’t know anyone. Shaking hands, introductions, small talk- he’d rather not. He didn’t like talking.
Truth was, he was too ashamed. "
Or, Todd has had a stutter for most of his life and avoids talking to anyone as much as he can, though that can get a bit tricky if your roommate is Neil Perry.

Summary
They’re about four days into their journey through the Scorch when Thomas notices it.
Newt's leg is giving him trouble.
And that's an issue—just slightly, because Newt is touchy about his leg on a good day, but now, for some reason, he seems absolutely hellbent on avoiding Thomas's help at any cost, even if it means he has to limp around in pain all day.
Thomas doesn't understand, and Newt only gives half-answers, bats him away, until he can't outrun the truth any longer.
They talk about it.
--
Or:
Newt struggles with his leg, Thomas is clueless, they both pine a little, and someone takes a tumble. Not necessarily in that order.

Summary
The one where it's Thomas who adopts a dozen of toddlers, and Newt finds out it's harder to pry a moment alone with his boyfriend than he originally thought.
(a companion fic that follows zapfinoo's in the broken bravado of my ghost (i'm a sucker for soft don't go's) but can be read separately.... however i highly recommend checking it out! it will make you go all the more insane)
