This Crooked Heart by surprisinglyOK
Fandoms: History Boys - All Media Types, History Boys (2006), History Boys - Bennett
03 Feb 2025
Tags
Summary
‘Do you ever wonder what you’re doing here?’ Posner asks.
‘At Oxford?’
‘Anywhere. What the point of it all is.’
Posner feels Scripps shift beside him. ‘I don’t think anyone knows the answer to that. God would say worship. Jesus would say love.’
‘And what would you say?’
Scripps falls silent as he ponders the question. Then: ‘I think it’s being with the people you care about. Finding moments of quiet. Looking for beauty.’
Posner smiles bitterly. ‘I don’t think I could find it if I tried.’
~
Posner navigates adult life and everything that comes with it, both the good and the bad. Thankfully, Scripps is there through it all, in confusingly fluctuating capacities as friend and lover.
Rated M for some pretty heavy mental health stuff, a suicide attempt by OD (though not in graphic detail), and sexual content (again, not super graphic, but there are sex scenes). Triggers for individual chapters will be in the notes. Please be careful! This is angsty, but I swear it ends happily.
Title is from As I Walked Out One Evening by Auden.

Love, friendship and the trials of soul marks are never easy to navigate. At eighteen, a name on your forearm can make the world all the more a painful and confusing place.

White Cliffs of Dover by bathfullofglass, Tea_and_Sympathy

Summary
In which our boys are transported to the 1940s
It’s funny, Posner thinks, but in a dozen flights he hasn’t even seen Dover. He’s seen neither Dover, nor France, nor Germany, nor Denmark—all he’s seen is a patch of sky over the heads of Scripps and Dakin when they carve out a minute on a calm section of the route. All the places they’ve been he knows only from his maps: bends in the rivers, city markers, scraps of fields, anti-aircraft weapon stations. Maybe it’s for the best.
