Summary
"“Please–” The word is choked out, pathetic and useless.
“Even your thoughts are disgusting.”
He shakes his head, pressing his hands down against his ears harder.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” He repeats, his voice cracks, and his throat locks. A sharp pain strikes the back of his head. Painful, yet familiar.
“Please— I’m normal, I’m sorry.” He sobs, his eyes shut tight. He curls his body onto itself even more. The pain on his head returns, then it pounds onto his back. He cries out."
Will Byers doesn't like who he is. Afraid of his own feelings, haunted by voices that sound too much like his father, and trapped in memories that never quite fade, Will struggles to convince himself that he's normal.
or
Will Byers loves Mike Wheeler and is scared of who he is.
Set in season 3

Summary
Alastor makes a split-second decision, unfounded in logic and dripping in venom the second he snatches Vox up in his sharp claws. He holds him still, close to his face so he can watch the alarm that crosses his dying opponent’s face. His eyes are wide, unfocused, but twitching like he doesn’t know where to look.
“Al- wh-what are-”
“Not yet, old chum.” Alastor croons as he stares the man in the eye, “You’ll be dying on my terms, but not just quite yet.”
or///; Alastor nurses a suicidal Vox back to health. They nearly kill each other in the process.

Summary
Ezra Laurent-McAllister was once inseparable from Shane Hollander until one kiss, one confession, and one moment of silence shattered everything. Branded by rumors and crushed by homophobia, Ezra chose survival over honesty, burying his sexuality and leaving Canada behind to rebuild his life in New York.
Years later, he returns as the New York Admirals' top center, forced into a brutal rivalry with Shane's Montreal team and dragged into the league's most infamous feud between Shane and Illya Rozanov. Ezra wants nothing to do with the past, but the ice has a memory, and Illya sees what Shane lost long before Shane does.
Caught between guilt, obsession, and unspoken truth, Ezra must decide whether faith, love, and identity can coexist in a world that once demanded his silence or if survival will always come at a cost.
Ezra x Shane x Ilya

Summary
Obi-Wan would do anything to protect his people, so he and Fox had very easily come to an arrangement that did not need to be verbalised to be obvious.
Fox would forgive the Jedi for certain breaches, extend his protection to them and offer him a few privileges, and in return Obi-Wan would provide him with a relationship as perfect and idyllic as possible to keep him happy.
It was a win-win situation.
The only problem Obi-Wan had very quickly identified with this arrangement was the following, and it was inevitable: Fox's interest in him would not last forever.

Summary
“Welcome to the Devildom, MC.” said a tall man. At least he appeared huge to you since you were still on the floor.
Despite that you still made no effort to move, struggling to process what was happening. Were you awake? You felt awake. Maybe you were kidnapped overnight and brought to a church to be offered as a sacrifice. Or maybe the Harry Potter fans were actually onto something and you’d subconsciously shifted to another reality after another night of hating your routine.
(You didn’t know what was scarier, getting kidnapped or the possibility that the people thirsting over Draco Malfoy were right.)

welcome to a retelling of Obey Me! through the eyes of a troubled teen. i will not hesitate to hate on your fave brother btw.

Summary
In the final moments that Bunnyx keeps coming back to while trying to stop the end of the world, she realizes that even with all of her powers, she cannot do it.

Worse comes to worst, and soon she has to take help from Damian Wayne, the not-so-civilian boyfriend of Marinette Dupain-Cheng.
Will he be able to save her (and the world too)?
Will she be able to save herself?
Or:
Marinette spirals deep into depression and self harm and eventually suicides.
Bunnyx believes her death is what causes everybody else's death, so she gives Damian a chance to save her.
But Damian's seen it happen last time. Who's to say it won't happen again?(Changed summary, title and a lot of other stuff, things went in a different direction)

Summary
The grass is green over here,
Good thing it's not ruined with beer.The wild is quiet at night,
Nobody is partying with all their might.You can see the stars so clearly,
No stairs that sound so eerie.Some trees are on fire,
But at least there's no deadly wire.A forest can hold many,
But you can only hold a pretty penny.Series

“Maybe what you really need is a friend, not a lover.”
Astarion’s eyes flutter with surprise. “I-I would like that. I’ve held more people than I can count. An infinite parade of lovers. But a friend?” He pauses on the question and his face becomes crestfallen. “I can’t think of a single one.”
He puts his hand out to Effy, to which she happily accepts.
“Until you,” he says with a smile that only she’s ever seen.
Ever since that moment the two remained friends and even got an apartment together in the lower city shortly after the defeat of the Netherbrain. It’s been several months and Effy is happily living with her vampire bestie but Astarion’s been acting different lately…
