Voices in the Library by scumbaganarchy for incineratethelimes
Fandoms: The Young Ones (TV 1982)

Summary
Vyvyan Basterd had always been able to see ghosts, that much wasn’t new.
To be quite honest, he didn’t think his ability to perceive the remnants of the dead had affected his life in a particularly meaningful way. Not in the sense that people might assume, anyhow. He hadn’t been known throughout his childhood as the weird kid who talked to people who weren’t there; he wasn’t in the business of mediumship now that he was grown; he’d learnt at a young age to pretend he wasn’t aware of ghosts, just like everybody else wasn’t. After all, if a ghost didn’t think you could see them, they were a hell of a lot less likely to hassle you with their issues, weren’t they?
And yet… eighteen years of supernatural denial still hadn’t adequately prepared Vyvyan for this. He hadn’t really anticipated a ghostly bottom being shoved through his face on his first week of working in the library, nor the disgustingly girly feelings that came with it.
