Summary
The year is 1999; a decade after the Party’s graduation and dissolution. Will Byers has travelled far from his hometown of Hawkins, running from his past whilst chasing the future. Now living in the cultural heart of Montreal, he has carved out success as an artist and illustrator, but finds himself devoid of everything that made him truly happy.
Socially isolated and haunted by ghosts, he takes life one day at a time. On a whim, he asks about the most influential of these ghosts—the man he once called his best friend. Expecting nothing, he is caught off guard when his inquiries lead him down a path he never could have predicted.

Summary
The first week of college is supposed to be a day for you to scope out the scene, get a look at who your professors are, potential studying partners, and all that jazz. And in all honesty, I would've been doing that if it wasn't for my new roommate (and of course my dumbass scheduling a few 9 AM classes) Jabber Wongar.

Summary
Never once in his life had Mydei been more entitled to spit “I told you so” at a rich CEO’s feet.
“I told you a world tour would be a shitty idea,” he growled at Cerydra. “Especially in this kind of situation. Why didn’t you listen? Now our center is having a panic attack and he won’t be able to perform.”
'And I’m worried for him,' Mydei didn’t add. 'I don’t want him to carry all that pressure alone.'
Cerydra’s eyes were impassive as always, but her voice was a bit quieter. “Phainon can’t perform?”
“He can’t,” Mydei affirmed with a cold stare. “So are you going to do something about it? Or am I going to have to stain our group’s reputation by knocking someone out? Because I will.”

Summary
After the sealing of the honmoon and the banishment of Gwi-ma, Rumi, Mira, and Zoey return home—physically safe but emotionally shattered. As the city prepares for its annual Lantern Festival, Mira and Zoey try to coax Rumi into joining them in the festivities. They’re hoping the night’s cathartic themes and its overall quiet beauty might help her heal. But Rumi’s past—the hiding, lies, and lingering shame-have left her touch-starved and terrified of the intimacy she so desperately craves.
How does someone begin to heal when the thing they crave the most, what they hunger for the most, is the very thing they can't bear? When the very thought of touch makes one's stomach twist in discomfort? But the lack of touch splinters the heart in two? To crave closeness so fiercely that the longing itself becomes unbearable—yet to recoil, to flinch away, when that longed‑for touch finally comes near. Rumi's aching desire for connection is unbearable, but so is the pain of her reaching for it.
Surrounded by the soft glow of lanterns, through vulnerability and the slow rebuilding of trust, the trio discovers that love—like lantern light—can shine even from the darkest of shadows.

You're Always Reading The Despair. by CrushedBerries
Fandoms: Kuroshitsuji | Black Butler
12 Feb 2026
Tags
Summary
Ciel counts the letters in the book of who he and they are as a pair. Counting everything, but only understanding it in a convoluted, detailed way that makes sure he doesn’t miss anything, which means he understands and knows every single twitch, every single unsaid admission. Cierri reads what their worries want them to see. Only blinder than those who can not see.
Ciel sucks at reading himself.
Cierri sucks at reading others.
You would think someone who’s watched Ciel grow up would know more about him.
A butler can know more, of course.
For one who thinks they’re evil, Ciel has one up over them.
(aka, Ciel but if his trauma response was hypersexuality)

Summary
As he stared at the boy his eyes trailed from the rings delicately decorating his slim fingers, to the silver chains hanging around his neck, to the metal bar poking out from his right eyebrow. He had a large reddish almost heart shaped birthmark on the left side of his face.
That birthmark looks oddly familiar…
Finally, his eyes drifted to lock eyes with the chocolate brown ones gazing back at him.
oh shit how long have I been staring?

Summary
This is a rewrite. I wrote the original story in 2019ish, and then got massively burned out and self-conscious. I deleted everything—even my old AO3 account, magicalmayhems. And now, four years older and a little wiser, I decided to start this story again. To be clear: I do not intend to abandon it this time.
But again, new verse same as the first:
Blue gets a Tumblr. Somehow, this proves beneficial for everyone involved.
