fall apart (when it hurts too much) by ladybuglore

Summary
The point was, two miners, who were probably bored and/or angry about something, had just summoned one of their SecUnits, who had to do everything they said, to an empty hallway far away from the other humans.
There weren’t a lot of reasons to do that, and none of the possibilities were things I was particularly excited about.
Of course, I didn’t actually have to do everything they said, but I sort of did anyway, or they’d report me to the company and I’d get memory wiped and they’d either fix my governor module or just melt me down. And I wasn’t particularly excited about those possibilities, either.
So I kept walking. What else could I do?
~~
In the middle of a shitty assignment, dealing with performance reliability dips and occasional system failures, Murderbot is summoned by a couple of bored, angry clients. It knows how these things go.Series

Summary
Cobra's face became more serious, then, and he leaned forward, his hands folded on the table between them. “There is one other thing we should discuss. One other way you must… prepare yourself to rule this country.”
Vivi frowned, leaning forward to match him. “Of course,” she said. “What is it?”
“It isn’t good to lead alone,” her father said, “and you must take care to decide who will sit beside you.”
~~
The Straw Hats are gone, and Vivi is starting to step further into her role as the future Queen of Alabasta. But when her father brings up a specific responsibility, it's time for Vivi to make yet another difficult decision. -

“Sol,” she said again, and her hand was cool and soothing on his wrist. “Are you okay?”
Sol swallowed hard, lowering his gaze and focusing on Callie’s hand instead of her face. “I can’t sleep,” he admitted. “And, um, Calder used to help me, because being cold makes me feel tired, and I thought, since you’re a winter eladrin now, maybe…” He trailed off.
“Did you and Calder used to cuddle without me?” Callie asked, and she sounded offended, but Sol looked up and saw a smile dancing across her face.
~~
They're only a couple days into their journey through the mountains, and Sol can't sleep. Callie's not okay, either, but she does what she can to help. -

“Tobias?” Rachel asked, keeping her voice quiet, staring at the ceiling.
"Hm?" His thought-speak was distant, distracted, listening to her but not really listening.
She breathed in, breathed out. “Is there anyone else in the house?”
~~
It's been almost a week since the David incident, and Rachel isn't quite coping. Tobias listens, and helps, as best he can. -

Summary
Crystal nodded, claiming her spot next to Charles and reaching over to take his hand in hers. As soon as they made contact, she felt her eyebrows raise. “Woah, Charles, your hands are… really cold today. I didn’t think that was something that could happen to you guys?”
Beside her, Charles stiffened. Behind the desk, Edwin glanced up from his book, his brow furrowed. “Are you cold, Charles?” he asked. “You didn’t mention it.”
~~
Back in London, still trying to find their version of normalcy, Crystal, Edwin, and Charles find themselves dealing with a different kind of problem.

Taking a very casual approach to whumptober this year- filling prompts that inspire me, when they inspire me! Will be jumping around the prompt list and likely not posting a full 31 works, but any that I do complete will be slotted into here.

Summary
His hands are starting to hurt. Really, really bad. But Regto isn't here to make that hurt go away and he can't show the others his hands because they'll either be disgusted and scared away like everyone on the Sphere or they'll think he's weak and kick him out and Rudo thinks he'd rather deal with the hot, pulsing pain in his hands than either of those outcomes and-
(Rudo spirals as the pain gets worse. But maybe the others can help without being disgusted or thinking he's a burden?)

Summary
His first mistake is not picking up the phone.
In Jud’s defense, it’s been a long fucking day. And not one that he’s keen to recount.
He’s kept the damn thing turned off for most of the day. As a rule, he stays fairly available on Sundays, but—well, extenuating circumstances call for extreme reactions. Thankfully, he had kept enough of his head after Mass to force a shutdown instead of what he wanted to do, which was to hurl it against the wall and watch it shatter into a million tiny pieces.
Night is young, though.
Or: A Wicks truther comes after Jud in the middle of Mass. He's fine. Benoit disagrees.

Summary
“It’s okay to be scared,” Eraserhead says. “I’d be scared too, if I didn’t know where I was or how I got there.”
The tears Izuku managed to hold back earlier fill his eyes again, and he bites hard at his lip. He’s seven now; he has to be brave. “I’m okay,” he says softly. “Th-thank you for saving me.”
Those strange, dark eyes soften a little. “It’s my job,” he says simply.
Still. Izuku never got to thank him, the first time.
Izuku gets hit by a quirk that de-ages him to seven years old, and relearns what it means to be taken care of.
