Summary
I didn’t realize how important this was to you, Charles admitted, sending along the impression of… gratitude. Gratitude that Erik cared this much. I’m not who I used to be, though. I’m not the same.
And neither am I, Erik replied, leaning back against the headboard. I have no expectations. I just want to help, if I can.
Mental silence fell between them—Charles was still there, drifting carefully in the center of Erik’s thoughts, but he was thinking, guarding the quiet metronome of his thoughts from Erik.
What if this doesn’t work? Charles asked, uncertain.
What if it does?

Summary
This page of the story comes from another realm and time. Imagine if the Flame-Chase had been grounded to Earth, the golden-blood Chrysos Heirs of Amphoreus instead the demigod heroes of Classical Greek myth…
…
Amphoreus, 350 BC.

Summary
Erik realized quickly that their living together wasn’t the ideal situation. Charles carried on in blissful denial, finding ways to cope with a mind he longed to know and a boundary he would not cross.
He found ways to distract himself from the promised pleasure of his roommate’s thoughts, sneaking there at the periphery of his own, not able to realize Erik is begging to be let in.Bookmarked by swordmaster

Summary
“Gandalf is going to turn me into a weasel,” Pippin told Boromir. “I shall need a pocket to ride in. May I borrow yours?”
Boromir blinked. “Oh,” he said. “Ohh. Yes, certainly, so long as you are a weasel-sized weasel and not a hobbit-sized weasel.”
Pippin turned to Gandalf, caught by this new idea. “Can you make me into a hobbit-sized weasel?”
“For mercy's sake,” said Gandalf.
In which Pippin has approximately sixty uninterrupted leagues to find out everything that can be found out from Gandalf and gets approximately sixty times more than he bargained for.

Summary
There's not a whole lot that Natasha has ever struggled to do on her own. It is with great pride that she upholds her community, be it through her free services or through channels of Wildfire - never has she slowed down to think about what she could be capable of with a few extra hands. Certainly, it'd ease the ache in her back from shouldering all this responsibility, and yet she's loathe to put it down.
Enter Sampo Koski, stage left.
(A look into the developing relationship of Natasha and Sampo over the years prior to the Astral Express' first contact with Jarilo-VI.)

Summary
“Jason wasn’t famous for keeping his temper in check, but he just had to grit his teeth and bear it.
It was most of what he did these days. A Neighbor's dog barking so loud it wakes him up before school? Grit his teeth and bear it. Teachers telling him that he had too much potential to be falling asleep in class? Grit and bear.
Landlord increasing the rent so Jason had no choice but to borrow money from the sharks? Grit and fucking bear.”

Summary
In the modern world of Toril, magic and devils and the like are believed to be relics of the distant past. But 34-year-old Wyll Ravengard knows all too well that these things still lurk in the corners of his own city, Baldur’s Gate, where he fights every day in the arena of the courtroom for his clients who have no one else by their side. One mundane morning, he meets one of his semi-regulars in lockup, Astarion Ancunín, a rare elf remaining in this world. What seems like one of Astarion’s usual street-level run-ins with the law explodes into something much more—something touching the highest levels of the city-state’s government and infernal planes beyond. Wyll struggles against the forces in and out of the system that wish to use Astarion, and at the same time contends with his own long-sleeping pact with a higher power which will lead him and Astarion on a journey far beyond the familiar confines of the Gate.

Summary
The diner bell rings and the door swings open. All that enters is cold gust of spring air and a patpatpat of little feet.
Too-small, too-soft hands grip the counter and pull up to reveal a mop of fluffy brown hair and a voice that says, faint yet solemn, “I’m looking for my mom.”
Sam searches for a missing family member. Things go as planned.

Summary
“C’mon, princess!” Dean stopped under a streetlamp. “You want a royal invitation?” His ears were stinging. The cold gripped him, making his head ache. The halo of light made the sideways flakes whipping around him glow gold.
Sam didn’t respond. He kept shuffling forward. Head bowed, hands crammed into his jean jacket. He was too quiet.
“Sammy?”
He finally made it into the glow of the streetlight. Still no answer. The light flickered above them. Sam looked up.
There were marbles where his eyes should be. Glassy, unfocused. They almost looked—Dean’s breath hitched. Yellow.

There's no short term solution for any of that. He just wants something normal in his life for once— and this is the most he'll probably get, he thinks, refocusing on the angel: sitting in a church he feels too small to truly be apart of.

Summary
He tells his big brother what he wants to hear, how could he not? He tells him it’s okay, and that he can go, but he’s clinging to Dean the way he did when they were little kids, crossing the street and looking both ways. Hopes that his desperation makes Dean change his mind, that he’ll say, “It’s okay Sammy, I’ll hang on.” But he doesn’t, just holds Sam tighter and tells him goodbye.
This is not how it’s supposed to go.
Sam barely remembers helping the kids out, he just remembers the way Dean’s skin was cold to the touch when he got back. He lifts Dean off the rebar and Sam can’t stop the intrusive thought of taking his place, it’d be perfect, Dean could go live the life he so dearly deserves. But it’s not perfect, and Dean’s blood dries onto the leather in the backseat as he drives them home.
