Summary
Even on the brightest of days, a moment of cruelty can spark trauma like nothing else. But no matter how bad it gets you're supposed to face the suffering on your own and not put it on your friends. They'll be angry if you reach out to them for help, and you'll be a failure for being so weak.
Right?
Alternatively, learning how to ask for help is not always an easy process.

Summary
Caught by surprise, Wei Wuxian can’t stifle the little rush of breath that escapes him as a twinge of pain shoots along the tendons of his shoulder.
Like most things, he lets it turn into a laugh.
Serenely returning to his task, completely unrepentant, Lan Wangji shifts a little closer, so that he is holding him at the waist, and Wei Wuxian can feel the gentle pressure of his touch in both places, on his shoulder and along his side, and the fullness of his own laughter recklessly pressing back against the points of contact. It’s a good feeling.
Or: Five times Wei Wuxian doesn’t ask Lan Wangji for help, and one time he does.

It’s not like he hoards food or snaps whenever someone asks him about his eating habits. It’s not like he skips meals or picks at his food in a way that makes it look like he’s eaten a good portion when he hasn’t. It’s not like he stares at his reflection every morning or thinks of himself as overweight. He doesn’t think he has much body issues, either.
Sure, it sometimes feels like he’s been pieced together all wrong, a tightness in the back of his throat whenever he steps onto a scale, something rattling in the back of his mind like a skeleton waiting to burst out of his skin—but that’s normal, isn’t it?
His body isn’t used to a quirk, after all. There’s an adjustment period he’s experiencing ten years too late. He’s barely passed the starting line while everyone else coasts ahead, leaving him to stumble as he tries to catch up.
It starts when All Might hands him a diet regime.

Then Sam says his name, a gentle “Buck?” and it’s hushed, kind, and it blows out the flame in Bucky’s spine, calming him, because he is safe, and he’s loved, but there’s still hurt curling in his gut when he lets himself fall into Sam’s arms – because while he’s incredibly grateful for Sam, for one beautiful moment he thought Steve was there.

“Dick!” Duke’s voice preceded him as he turned the corner into the kitchen. “How was— Oh sh-shoot,” he said, mincing the oath in Alfred’s presence. “You got feathers!”
Dick felt the wings twitch self-consciously. The keratin-covered pin feathers rattled together. “I don’t know if they count as feathers yet.”
“You look like a rotisserie chicken had a run-in with a porcupine,” Tim shouted from the top of the stairs.
“Yeah, thanks for that.” Dick rolled his eyes.
“You’ll be flying before you know it,” Duke said confidently.

It had been difficult to explain to the doctor in Chicago why Rand’s back looked like he’d been run over by a tractor and spit back out.
It had fully healed by the time they’d went to the office so the three men had no choice but to back up some excuse about Rand getting into a car crash a couple years back, and definitely didn’t include any mention of a possessed bug person slashing through his spine like it was scissors to paper.

Or, Rand struggles through a chronic pain flare but Barcode is there to make sure he doesn't have to do it alone.Series

Oscar doesn’t remember the exact moment it started to slip — the space between kisses getting longer, the silences going unchecked, the scent of love fading from the walls. All he knows is that somewhere between race weekends and routines, he stopped feeling like someone they wanted to hold.
After an incident leaves him shaken and raw, Oscar finally stops trying to be easy to love — and begins to ask what he actually needs.
Now Max and Charles have to face the ache they ignored too long, and Oscar has to decide if healing means returning to what they had... or building something new from what remains.

Summary
Sansa Stark dies in ice and fire, her thread of Fate severed too soon in the battle for Dawn; she is born again in blood and magic, the Old Gods weaving her anew.
Finding herself in a new world on the brink of magical civil war, scorned for the "impure" blood that runs in her veins, Sansa is determined she will never again be told that she is less than what she is worth. Through pain and suffering, she has learned how to turn righteous rage into armour, into weapons, and with the blessing of the Old Gods she will fight for what she believes in; for her family, for herself, and for the Fate of her new world.
