Summary
The first few times, he excuses it as rusty social skills, the same as Joel.
She always gravitates to his brother, after all. When she slides in at the last minute into an empty chair beside him or presses right to his side in a crowd, leaving no room for him there as well, it’s possible that she’s just nervous about being around strangers. He takes the loss and stays where he is, content that there will be plenty of time to spend time with Joel when his kid is ready to have some space.
And then the little punk pulls a chair out from under him at dinner one day when he goes to take the empty space beside his brother.
Stunned to find himself on the floor, he blinks up at a round face smiling down at him innocently.
“Oops,” she says, with poorly hidden satisfaction. “Sorry Tomtom, didn’t see you there.”
(back in Jackson, Ellie is faced with sharing Joel's attention with Tommy) (she's not handling it well)

Summary
Sarah always hated green beans.
Even when all of her food was pulverized baby mush, her little nose would wrinkle the moment the tip of the spoon made it into her mouth, and she would throw her pudgy hands into the air and baby-shrill at him for the audacity of the attempt. When he tried to trick her into eating them with some idea of expanding her palate by slipping in a bit between spoonfuls of yogurt, he’d spent a week having to pry tiny fingers off of spoons when she insisted on checking each bite for further betrayal.
More than one supper had ended with a plastic cartoon character plate flung across the kitchen, green bean shrapnel spread across the floor. He’d usually made her go to bed early those nights, whether she ate anything else or not. It had felt like the right thing at the time, a life lesson about hard choices and consequences.
How he regrets those nights now.
(Sarah and Ellie both hate green beans) (Joel's approach to both is different)

Summary
"You asshole," Javi pants. "What if I'd had someone with me?"
Steve huffs out a breath, something akin to a laugh, and dips his head down low enough to press his face into Javi's shoulder. Every hair on Javi’s body stands on-end at the feeling of Steve's lips mouthing at his ear, sliding down to his neck. He experiences the sensation of Steve’s smile as a physical thing, Steve’s teeth pressing into his jugular. "Suprised you don't."

Summary
Behind the pretty faces of the fashion industry, there is an ugliness that no make up or latest Chanel design can hide. Models are monsters hidden behind masks, circulating and circulated by white lies and white lines alike.
Even so, Namjoon had hoped that there was a possibility for life to bloom.

Summary
"Why?", Hanseo croaks. "Why on earth would you call me?"
"I heard you were going to testify against me", Hanseok says and his voice sounds listless and dull. It seems he's dropped his mask all together, then.
"What? Did you think I would be on your side?", he asks, morbidly amused. "After everything you've done?"

Denji wakes up freezing.
That's not that unusual, considering, but at least it's been a while since the last time.

Like leaving a note on the kitchen table:
Hey, I won’t be back. Don’t spend all my money at once. My key is on my desk.
Quit and move to the countryside.
Don’t die.
I love you.

Summary
Gil Young calls him Choi Yoon; Hwa Pyung called him Mateo. Mateo’s life is a rosary strung with self-doubt and self-harm, with decades of prayers for deliverance.
His prayer was, after all, answered. Choi Yoon, nine years old, rigid beneath his bed, had not wanted to die.
He has thought, in the years since, that perhaps he had prayed too hard.

Summary
Before, during and after accepting Park Il Do.
Allowing an evil spirit into his body was easy. He spent years preparing for the inevitability of his death. What was not easy was this: the marks left on his skin as his detective tried to drag him back to shore, and the burn of the crucifix on his forehead as he tasted the blood of his priest on his tongue.

--
Daisuke is unknowingly smitten for months. Too bad Haru is too much a workaholic to let him know the feeling's mutual.
