    Summary

    Daryl's mama once told him something that he never really appreciated while she was alive. When stuff got bad, she'd look at him with that exhausted half-smile on her face and crouch down so that she was eye-level with his much shorter self. "Honey? At some point- something's gotta give. You just gotta be sure that when it does, you're strong enough to handle what happens next."

    Smart lady, his mama.

    After they lose Beth, the decision to keep surviving is hard. It takes everything they've got to keep going.

    And the funny thing was? When Daryl faltered, Rick always seemed to be right there to pick him back up.

    This is a story of how far you have to fall before you can make it back up again, and of the people who make it all worthwhile.

    Summary

    In Leo’s fantasies, Vincent is rough.

    To be fair, it’s not a huge stretch. He’s seen him hold his own in a fight, has seen him handle a gun like a pro and move fast as hell when he wants to. It isn’t hard to imagine that under his typical cool, calm demeanour, he’s got a fire in him that could burn Leo alive if he pushed hard enough.

    And god, does Leo want to push.

    +

    As they evade the law yet again, Leo finds that it’s getting harder and harder to ignore how much he’s drawn to Vincent. He wants him--but it’s an impossible fantasy, and he isn’t going to let that ruin things between them.

    He hopes.

    Summary

    “The sleeping bag. We can share it.”
     
    Leo’s quiet for a second. When Vincent looks over, he’s giving him a funny look that he can’t quite place; somewhere between suspicious and hesitant.

    “You want to sleep in the same sleeping bag.”

    “I don’t want to,” Vincent snaps, exasperated. “But I’m not sleeping on the bare ground, so unless you want to, then we share. Final offer, take it or leave it.”

    Summary

    “Lumine I want to die,” Aether groaned as he saw his sister at the school’s entrance.

    “What happened?” His sister nonchalantly asked as she checked her backpack for her belongings.

    “I had to spend 20 minutes of my precious life between this green emo kid and this purple weeaboo while both of them blasted anime intros. And by the way, the green one didn’t notice that his headphones weren’t plugged in either.”
