Summary
It isn’t just the name thing. It’s a lot of little things. Will spacing out, or tapping his first and second fingers idly on his other wrist, or saying things with a weird lilting inflection, or fiddling with the radio knobs for a little too long in the basement, like he’s searching for something.
(‘Midnight,’ Mike could have sworn he heard Will mumble, one of those times. ‘Midnight…’)
--
Mike realizes he's stuck in Camazotz.

Summary
“I know you don’t understand. Because I haven’t been honest with you, Mike. Or— or you, Mom. I’ve been keeping things from you, because everything I have, everything in here—”
Will’s finger jabs at his chest, enough to leave an indent in his shirt over his heart, and Mike wishes he wouldn’t do that so hard—
“He takes. He takes it away from me. And I don’t want you to hear this from anyone but… but me."

Summary
He knows which buttons to push, and most of the time, he pushes them in the right order, but there are just some moments where he gets frazzled anyway, and his finger slips, and, and, and —
“It just… feels like all of a sudden, she’s, like, all over you. Is all.”
“‘All over me??’” That’s a direct hit! Dirk the Daring has only one life remaining. Ready your next two quarters now. “That… is so rich coming from you, Mike. I mean, you can’t be serious. You spent the entire summer before I moved away ignoring all your friends to–to make out with my sister. And now, I hang out with Robin. My friend. Like, twice, and you get all pissy and grossed out about the concept of being all over someone? Are you kidding me?”
---
Or, Mike is jealous of Will and Robin's budding relationship.

Summary
Turning to ‘Idiot,’ he opened his mouth, holding the produce he’d just scanned to his chest, out of reach from the guy. And, for the first time, ‘Idiot’ fixed his gaze on Keith. And, fuck, he was actually kind of cute. Keith’s mouth snapped shut before he could say something stupid. Instead, ‘Idiot’ apparently decided to do it for him, with a (stupidly adorable) shit-eating grin, no less.
“Hey, nice melons.”

Keith and Lance are students working in the same grocery store.

falling in love (but cats always land on their feet) by shootsharpest for madnessandbrilliance
Fandoms: Voltron: Legendary Defender
17 Feb 2019
Tags
Summary
“I think he likes you.” It’s soft, and doesn’t reach Pike’s ears until a few moments after he starts petting Yorak. As if in agreement, Yorak’s head lands heavy onto Pike’s thigh. He breaks into a grin, and looks back to Thunderstorm, gesturing excitedly at the wolf resting against him. Thunderstorm shakes his head, looking terribly fond in this moment, and--
Oh. That look. That look really works some sort of magic for Pike, as something impossibly warm and every bit as tender blooms in his chest, and he’s been cursed before, but never with anything harboring this kind of softness. Oh, he thinks again.
---
Or, Pike gains an unexpected traveling companion, fights some monsters, and falls in love. -

Summary
"Wha’bout the friend--Ollie? Whatever his name was--he never realized it was her, all that time? He was supposed to have, like, a huuuuge crush on her and he couldn’t tell. I, mean, if it were me,” Lance continued, rambling on, “If you came up to me in a blonde wig, I’d know it was you, no doubt.”
Keith laughed again, but it caught in his throat after a moment of processing exactly what Lance had just said. “Wait, what--”
(or, lance is drunk, keith makes sure he gets home safe, and the realities of hannah montana's disguise are discussed.)

to allow us all to breathe by shootsharpest for madnessandbrilliance
Fandoms: Voltron: Legendary Defender
21 Jan 2019

Summary
There’s a soft, musical sort of laugh. “Since when have humans been so kind to merfolk?”
“I don’t know what that is.” He really doesn’t. The last of the netting around the creature’s tail falls away into the shallow water. The tail swishes, rippling waves against his legs.
The creature fixes him with a strange look. “Surely you must have seen one of my kind before?”
(keith has no idea who he is or where his home is. lance is the mer who saved him.)

just like fireworks by shootsharpest for fauxghost
Fandoms: Carry On Series - Rainbow Rowell, Simon Snow & Related Fandoms
18 Jan 2019
Tags
Summary
The room smells thick, smoky-sweet, and my head is spinning. It’s only after the page is decidedly back in place that I snap the book shut, and the magic recedes, as does Snow’s hand. Instantly, I miss the warmth of both.
“We did it,” he grins.
“We did.” Simon Snow is standing in my space, breathing in my air, and he’s so close.
(or, an au where the fireworks simon feels are a bit more than just figurative.)

Summary
The Catacombs are every bit as dark and chilly as I remember, but having Simon by my side is always like having my own personal star. His light shines brighter than any spell I know of; his warmth seeps into my bones deeper than any drafty corridor beneath Watford.
--
Simon and Baz return to Watford one summer (with a few surprises, courtesy of Baz). -
Tags
Summary
An AU where Baz and Simon's rivalry began because Baz hit Simon in the face with a football, tried to say "I'm so fucking sorry" and "Are you okay?" at the same time, and ends up mincing his words.

Summary
With everything looming over him in a never-ending cycle of homework and stress-fueled isolation in his own room or in a corner of the library, he definitely didn’t need to be so hung up on the singing shower guy. Keith continued his usual workout-shower-class routine three days of the week, adding “ignore singing guy” in whenever necessary.
----
Keith and Lance have a meet-cute (depending on your definition of cute) in the dorm showers. -

Summary
"The nurse'll be back soon to check you out and then we can take you home. You could probably do with some rest, too. Sound good?"
"Home?" Barnaby gasps, eyes blown wide. "I can go home? You're coming too? Are you.......oh my god, are you my boyfriend?"
--
Kotetsu deals with a very high-on-medications Barnaby and thinks he just might not make it through this evening without spilling everything. -
