Summary
Pete pushes his head back into the wall behind him, wishing it could just envelop him. He looks up, and whispers a prayer; his first in years.
It went something along the lines of: “God, please, please, please, get me to a safe place. Make him go away. Make him fall asleep so I can run.”

Summary
He always used to feel weird at parties, back when he was a teenager, in the first years of high school. He was awkward and unsure and achingly lonely after too long of mostly keeping himself company, still trying to navigate the seas everybody else seemed to have gotten used to long before him.
(Five parties Mark went to with strangers, acquaintances and friends. One time he celebrated with just one other person.)

Summary
For months, Tom's moved his whole schedule around, done whatever he needed to do to prove that blink is his priority right now - because it is. He hasn't been the reason they've had to reschedule anything yet, and he's desperately trying not to be, ever. At least not for another couple of years.
The problem is, this weekend is the full moon, and that's not exactly something he can work around.
Tom is a werewolf. It changes less than you would think. (AKA 30 years of ups and downs of Tom and Mark's whatever you wanna call it, but Tom is a werewolf in this one)

Summary
There was a time when Mark’s approval was the only thing in the world that felt worth chasing, and some part of Tom will always be that stupid fucking kid who fell head over heels that day, that boy who got a taste of something good for the first time in his life, of something perfect and brilliant, Mark appearing on the sidewalk of his cul-de-sac like fate itself fucking placed him there, right when Tom needed him most.
or,
2004. A moment of tenderness in a year of anything but.
The love was there. It's not enough.- Language:

Summary
Mark is no stranger to dark moods, but this feels different than that, heavier, somehow. More consuming. He felt it on tour too, in the few, spare moments of quiet in between the chaos, has felt it for a while, if he’s being honest with himself, but distractions are easier to come by when they’re on the road.
It’s only at home, trapped in an empty apartment where the silence eats him alive, that the full weight hits him. How empty his life is. How truly alone he actually is.
He’s nothing without the band. He has nothing else.
Nothing to come home to.
