    Summary

    The closer the date came, the more reluctant Grace felt sharing a home with the thing that was coming back on the Eridian ship. He felt himself growing uncomfortable at the idea of him even sharing a dome with it. How should he be expected to?

    What if it was dangerous? What if the being was more animalistic and violent? What if it was sick? What if it got him sick? How will it react to a new planet? Can he really be trusted to take care of this thing? What if he doesn’t know how because it’s not human?

    God, but what if it was human?

    OR

    Grace is forced to come to terms that he is no longer alone, while Simon struggles with the reality that he deserves any of this. Does he?

    Summary

    It was just dinner with family. A family large enough to be an independent militia, but that was all. Nothing serious.

    Lian disagreed.

    Summary

    "I've been scanning literature. Very interesting study in Sweden; apparently Giovannini's patients mimic whoever they think's in charge."

    "Any country with that low an age of consent and that high a rate of suicide isn’t thinking straight."

    "I am in charge of our relationship."

    "It was the surgery, you were the surgeon; in that setting –"

    “You would pick up my laundry if I asked you to.”

    “... Go ahead, ask."

    “Oh, I wouldn’t do that to you.”

    There's... something there. House goes first.

    Summary

    It was Lucas who broke it, looking over at Mike "Hey. The floor's open, by the way. If you wanted."

    Mike blinked. "What?"

    "Oh yeah! We always end up talking about this stuff without you." Dustin said, rolling onto his side. "Lucas talked about Max. I've been monologuing about Stacy for over a month, which in retrospect was a waste of everyone's time-"

    "Tremendous waste." Mike agreed. "Historic, really."

    "-and you've got something going on now." He shrugged. "It's your turn."

    Mike looked at Lucas, who raised his eyebrows in a quiet yeah, what he said.

    He looked back at Dustin. "You want me…to talk to you about having sex with Will?"

    In which Dustin is a shit head and Mike ends up oversharing about his sex life.

    Summary

    "I know what your problem is," Lance interrupts, pointing a finger at him and smirking as though he's just personally discovered the deepest secret of the universe. God only knows why Keith stops talking then, but in hindsight, he wishes he'd have just gotten louder.

    "You need to get laid," Lance announces.

    Summary

    “Uh, Kris, you’ll get your shirt wet if you — “ Ralsei said carefully, interrupting their thoughts. He was already in the water, glasses on the side. Ever since they first saw him, they were still kind of mesmerized by the way the prince’s eyes glimmered when he didn’t hide them. There was something almost starlike about them — the kind of stars on the darkest night of winter. Brave, iridescent. Determined.
    Ralsei was really pretty when he wanted to be.

    ***

    Ralsei and Kris share a quiet moment in the hot springs. Kris has an epiphany.

    Summary

    An incident can mean different things to different people. The beauty of it isn't always seen from one perspective because what matters is different in the eyes of each beholder.

    And sometimes, even one person is seeing things from two different perspectives.

    Summary

    “...forgive us for the presumption,” Edrehasivar said, tone slightly strangled in the way it always is when he doesn’t like what is coming out of his mouth. “But we thought, if we... that is, if we, er… attended... then you would not have to… no one would have to…" He sagged under our stares. “...stay behind,” he finished feebly.

    We were at that moment visited by a terrible, inevitable vision of the Ethuverazhid Zhas cornered by our mother, and we confess we had to lean on the wall in a brief violation of Alchenar IX.I.VI. Even the edocharei seemed taken aback; even Cala. Edrehasivar looked horribly dismayed at this non-reaction, and immediately started to backtrack. 

    "We do not wish to inflict ourself," he said wretchedly. "It was only a— a thought…" He trailed off, but the pause persisted. In it, we reflected to ourself that while we had taken knives for this boy, and would willingly take plenty more, he had — indeed, has — a talent for making us want to scream in dismay.

    the alcethmeret's annual springnight gala goes... interestingly.

    Summary

    Jimin gave him an undecipherable look and he felt himself stiffen. He was going to make Namjoon eat glass, then he’d strangle him. Long eyelashes fluttered, “Cute,”

    “Cute?”

    “You’re embarrassed because you think you’re too old for me,” Jimin supplied and Yoongi cursed himself for being so predictable. “It’s cute.”

    Summary

    After they came out, Shane was ready for people to be weird.

    It was weird with other guys in the league, weird with reporters, weird with angry fans who thought his relationship had tanked their fantasy teams and their sports betting parlays, weird with sponsors and their very enthusiastic pride campaign pitches, weird on all the social media that he avoided like the plague.

    What he hadn't expected was for things to be so fucking weird with other gay people.

    Summary

    When a Voldemort in his thirties encounters a time-travelling, seventeen-year-old Harry Potter, he makes a dangerous—and hilarious—assumption. He assumes that Harry is his son. And his son, of course, deserves the very best.

    A confused Harry plays along for the sake of self-preservation, but living with his “father” is proving to be intolerable in more ways than one.

    “You are mine,” Voldemort said gently, and smiled when Harry flinched. So the boy did know Voldemort, after all. He knew Voldemort was to be feared. “I will look after you, my own.”

    “I don’t belong to you,” Harry spat, despite his fear. Oh, what a delight he was! He was no cowering, simpering sycophant, like Voldemort’s other followers; no, this child had a spine of steel. Not many could stand before Voldemort without quailing.

    “You are my son,” Voldemort declared. “Of course you belong to me. Your every cell, your every fibre, your every heartbeat. You are mine in flesh and blood and soul. You are mine in magic. And you will not deny me.”

    Now with Chinese, Korean, Russian and Portugese translations, and featuring art by Mona and Hypnodisc!

    Summary

    Carlos's reaction to the first date involves a lot more anguished cries than Cecil's, though to be fair, they're only anguished cries of "Why did I do that, why did I say that, why am I allowed to interact with other people" so they're still better than at least eighty percent of Night Vale's late night wails.

    Summary

    A late-night errand sends Peter Pettigrew to the Astronomy Tower, where he expects trouble—and instead finds Regulus Black under the stars.

    What begins as suspicion turns into quiet conversation, unexpected laughter, and a different kind of discovery entirely.
