Summary
He can hear Jisung stand up too, but he doesn’t turn around. Instead he lets his eyes close, only to find Jisung painted on the backs of his lids. It makes his hands shake.
“I’ve never met someone like you.”
Jisung shuffles forward before responding. “Hm? How am I different?”
Minho turns around. It’s painful to look at Jisung, a beacon right down the middle of the dark playground, but he does anyway. He thinks about the question for just a moment, because the words are already escaping him.
“You’re someone I can’t see through.”
Jisung laughs at that, eyes squishing up as every dimension of space around him glitters. “Well, I’m pleased to know that I’ve managed to hold your interest.”
Oh no, you’ve known. You’ve known since that day in the library that I’m incapable of looking away.
Minho turns back around and tilts his head up. He focuses on the sky this time, vast and dark. Looking at the endless sky is easier than looking at Jisung, the labyrinth of a man.
A maze Minho has no chance of escaping.

Summary
Gon had too much energy and not enough… bodily volume to contain it. He was always bursting at the seams, and it always made him appear bigger than he really was. His strategy of moving moving moving constantly gave off the impression that he was everywhere at once; a little boy with a wide field of vision. The result, a larger than life image.
But Gon was small, and when he didn’t have the leeway to move move move, he was at a complete standstill, and that’s when Killua could see the proportionate Gon. A side of him that was real, something he found himself wanting to protect. Something worth protecting. Something that needed protection.
. . .
What goes through Killua's head stays in Killua's head, but he had a feeling Gon knew exactly what he was thinking because, in the end, there was no such thing as sharing space with someone like Gon Freeccs.

Jeezus who gave you the right. To write this. Amazing, etc. Touches on Killua's perspective in ch1 as well as Gon's in ch2, on Gon's abandonment issues and depression, everything. Late night talks are like the pinnacle of this fic. so slay

Summary
He saw the duffel.
It was battered all to hell and the strap was nearly torn from the bag, but it still glowed almost neon in the darkening night and streetlamp glare. Neil would never…
He dropped to his knees beside it and rifled through it, looking for any sign, any clue as to where Neil might have run. Nothing, nothing, nothing. Until his fingers found the keyring. Until he found the phone.Andrew's perspective on the Binghamton riot and the walking tragedy that is Neil Josten.

Post-Canon Fire Lord Zuko (and his staff) by RejectsCanon
Fandom: Avatar: The Last Airbender, Avatar: The Last Airbender (Cartoon 2005)
29 Aug 2024
Summary
A few people have asked if I would make a series for my Fire Lord Zuko fics so they’re easier to read, so here we are! The fics aren’t linear, or necessarily connected (though I do recycle original characters, and occasionally reference an event mentioned in another fic) but you don’t need to read all of them in order to understand one of them, so you’re free to read whichever ones you want. Enjoy!!

Summary
There’s no tyrant, no manipulator, no abuser anymore. Everything should be better now, everything should be perfect.
Then why does it not feel this way?
Or, Dream is dead. The SMP is left with questions, uncertainty and regrets.
This is the aftermath of the last chapter of “a monster with cold veins,” so it would make more sense to read that first if you haven’t :D

Summary
The piano sat in the corner, just behind table four. It didn’t play well anymore. The keys stuck, the top was scratched, and one of the legs had been uneven since before Henry bought the place. But he cleaned it every morning. Cloth in hand, gentle fingers tracing the dust from the keys as if they still mattered.
He never said aloud why he kept it.
Not to customers. Not to friends. Not even to himself.
Some things didn’t need words to be true.
Henry always cleaned it the same way. Left to right. Top lid, keys, then legs. Seven years of muscle memory. Seven years of maybe he’ll come back. Seven years of just in case.

Summary
“Hi,” breathes Shadowheart, her voice low and weak. It is all she offers, as she looks steadfast ahead, refusing Lake’s gaze.
There is a vicious and urgent thought burning like white-hot metal to exploit, to hurt her while she is vulnerable. Fool, it whispers as it tickles through her veins, spreads through her bloodstream like a poison. It spawns images of Shadowheart’s pretty pink lips twisted into an expression of anguish, her eyes heavy and wide with panic and pain. It entices her with the promise of pleasure, the rush from the absolute feeling of control and power over another – a second of ecstasy, of peace, as the life would leave Shadowheart’s eyes.
The terrible urge is paired with an unpleasant, sticky feeling of shame, and Lake hurries to tear her eyes away from Shadowheart.
“Hi,” says Lake, letting their steps fall in tandem in silence, too afraid to trust her mind to say anything else.
.
Or,
a brief excerpt from the party's visit to the mind flayer colony beneath Moonrise (and its lovely implications for the Dark Urge's lore).-

Summary
Luo Binghe despairs of ever finding a day where his Shizun will not throw himself in front of danger for other people’s protection. It is easily his worst trait–the way that he treats himself and his body as a shield for others, ranking himself cavalierly as far more disposable than Binghe wishes he would. When he was younger, it caused Binghe to spend many nights filled alternatingly with worry and despair for his Shizun, so willing to throw himself into harm’s way. Time has softened the despair into more of a gentle exasperation, and Binghe has simply resolved to do his best to prevent Shen Qingqiu from ever needing to throw himself in the way of danger for him.
Or, all the ways in which Luo Binghe loves his husband
