    Summary

    L’Automne s’assombrit ainsi qu’une Bachante
    Au sortir des festins empourprés. Elle chante
    La moite lassitude et l’oubli des baisers.

    (Richard and Francis, post-canon. Nothing goes according to plan.)

    Summary

    If Richard noticed their attentions, he disregarded it as no more than his own mind conjuring his desires up for him, a self-absorbed visitor to the museum imagining that the painted eyes of a favored portrait were directed at him.

    Summary

    Half-way through his cross-country trek to Vermont the summer before college, Richard encounters a wealthy woman twice his age at an airport, somehow smooth-talks his way into her home, and prepares to make the easiest money he's ever made.

    Then her son shows up to Boston in her stead, and his summer goes to shit.

    Summary

    Oh fuck. He’s coming back. Tommy curls up so none of his important organs are accessible, the guy has only strangled him up till now, but there was blood on the tarp, so maybe he likes to stab too. Tommy doesn’t want to be stabbed anywhere important.

    Techno just sits on the other end of the couch and bounces his leg, mostly just looking at the fire, but occasionally glancing at Tommy.

    “So, uh, you do anything interesting in school today?” he asks, Tommy would laugh at his awkwardness if he wasn’t so confused.

    “I failed a math test,” he says. God he wishes he could go back to that being his biggest problem.

    --

    or

    Tommy walks in on a murder and gets kidnapped by the worlds most awkward serial killer.

    Title from Sodikken's Misery Meat
