Summary
Healing is never linear but it is healing just the same. And Caleb Widogast is getting better whether he wants to or not.
A College AU about growing as people and figuring shit out, without a whole lot of actual college.
Because sometimes when you're not fighting for your lives in a mineshaft full of gnolls it takes a little longer to come together as a family.

Summary
"There’s an after-school program that I think would do you some good. Like a club, sort of. You could meet some people like Nott.” Mr. Sol’s smile was wide and seemed genuine. “You seemed to get along well with him.”
“Oh.” Caleb wanted to protest, but he couldn’t. He didn’t need to meet people. He’d had people before, and it had done very little good. He was fine alone.
“I’ll give your parents a call and let them know, okay?”
“Ja. Okay.”
Mr. Sol called the people Caleb was staying with and told them about Zadash High’s “Behavioral Correction Program”. And Caleb left.It had only been a month since he’d left rehab and come to this school, and he was already being recommended for a troubled kid's group. So, overall, he was off to a shining start."
In which Caleb has a lot of trauma to work through, the Mighty Nein is A Lot To Handle (tm), and Caleb's parents are lowkey my favorite characters.
The first work in a shamelessly self indulgent, stupidly elaborate High School AU. Basically, the Mighty Nein are shoved into an after school program together. Slow burn bonding, angst, and probably cuddling to follow.
Title from Noah Kahan's song "Please".Series

Summary
Donnie collided with Leo in a tangle of limbs. There was an instinctive cling in return from his twin, before the realization sunk in.
"No." Leo breathed in his ear, immediately shattered. "No, no, no, no, no!”
Every muscle in Donnie's body was shaking like an earthquake from the amount of effort he'd just expended. The explosion caught up to them, sending the twins spiralling away into space and debris.
For one singular moment, Donnie allowed himself a burst of victory. His heart was still thudding a thousand miles an hour in his chest, having been absolutely terrified he wasn't going to make it in time. But he did. And he held onto Leo, his prize.
Then they hit the ground, the sudden tumble bursting them apart. Donnie felt the world spin, rapid and disorientating, before he slammed into something rock and cracking under his impact.
or: donnie doesn’t let leo go to hell alone

Summary
“Tim, what is today’s date?”
“July 15th, 2016.” Tim blinks. “…Are you sure you don’t need to go to A&E?”
Jon stops breathing.
This can’t be. It’s impossible. It doesn't make sense—
It’s real.
He Asked, and Tim answered, and the Eye presses the knowledge upon him, urgent and irrefutable. He's not dreaming anymore. He’s gone back.
In another universe, Jon chooses to die, rather than to accept his transformation into the Archivist. The Beholding is displeased with this choice, and sends him back to try again.
my attempt at a time travel travel fix-it, except this time it's s3!jon that gets sent back. i have as little idea where this is going as you do. we'll see how it goes.
