Summary
The last person Thompson would ever consider asking for help within his heist was Matthew. Gold diggers are never prime allegiance material. They want payment and nothing else.
Matthew’s the last person anyone would pick for a heist.
Which is why Thompson is so unlucky he doesn’t have anybody else to go to.

Summary
There’s something wrong with Will.
It started three weeks ago, almost four. Will had woken from some sort of nightmare and, instead of seeking comfort in Mike the way he usually would, he’d rolled out a sleeping bag from the closet and chosen to sleep on the floor.
No one believes Mike, except for Joyce. But even she doesn’t understand the full extent to which something is wrong with Will.
Mike understands, though. Mike has been paying attention.

Summary
Will raises his eyebrows. “Is that why you came in here?” he repeats, looking back down at the blue flannel. “To ask me about the weather in Lenora?”
“Kind of,” Mike says, and then, “well no, not about the weather specifically. I just– I wanted to talk to you.”
“Oh.” And Will looks a lot more surprised at this, actually, than the idea that Mike might have just wanted to come to his room to make small talk about unseasonably frigid California winters. “Okay. What about?”
“Anything.” The response is embarrassingly immediate. “Everything. I don’t know. I missed you.”
Hawkins, 1986. The world is ending, there are too many people in Mike's house, and to top it all off, he and Will have some things to talk through.

Summary
It’s been weeks since Tommy had a decent source of food. Or water. Or clothes, for that matter. So yeah, maybe he took more than an inconspicuous amount of stuff from Techno’s base. It’s kind of hard when a certain green bastard caused you to develop hoarding issues.
or
Technoblade finds out Tommy’s been hiding underneath his base, pieces together the events of the past two months in Logstedshire, and helps Tommy heal.

The Four Stages of Trauma Recovery, as told by Dr. A Burdett by Humanities_Handbag
Fandoms: Sonic the Hedgehog (2020)

Summary
Tom and Maddie Wachowski were, by far, the most puzzling clients Dr. Alice Burdett ever had. One was a police officer. The other a vet. They were a loving couple living a modest life a few towns over in Green Hills. A town that had recently stopped giving out information to anyone beyond its borders.
And they'd come in to discuss their son.
They didn't give her a name. They didn't tell her what he looked like. Only that he needed help.
Dr. Alice Burdett had been a therapist long enough to identify trauma. And their child was absolutely, totally, and significantly traumatized. And she could work with that.
"Right," she said, clicking her pen, watching the helpless parents over her notebook. "Let's start at the beginning."

He's In His House (And I'm In His Basement) by Azkaabanter

Summary
Tommy didn't exactly think his "escape" from Logsteadshire through very well. He had basically no supplies, no food, was injured, and had to trek through the freezing cold and snow to have just a shred of a chance of revenge. It was looking pretty bleak for him as his head swam and his legs threatened to give out- good thing his older brother was exiled close enough to be a refuge.
--
Basically Tommy refuses to give up on himself, and then ends up almost dying in Technoblade's basement. At least he's out of the snow, though.- Language:
