Summary
A cough.
Till's gaze snaps up at the sound, caught between disbelief and the cruelty of a maybe. He waits, dares not even to breathe, terrified that even a single sound would shatter the illusion.
Another cough, so soft that Till would not have believed he heard it if he had not also noticed Ivan's shoulder jerk. For a single moment, he stays frozen in place as if in a trance. Then, the fog lifts.
"Ivan?"
Ivan survives Round 6.

Summary
Till turns his crazed grin and both middle fingers up for the cameras, then he throws himself off the suspended stage headfirst. The momentum rips clear of the cords in his neck, blood streaming behind him from his open wounds. Behind his eyelids are flashes of his life: long pink hair, bruises down to bone, and one night with the sky streaked bright, running hand in hand.
On the way down he thinks, in the split second before his neck snaps against the hard metal floor, that if he had the chance, he’d keep running next time.
~~
Or, Till tries again (and again and ag- )

Summary
Ella leaned forward, her grin widening as though she were gearing up for something big. “All right, the kiddie gloves are coming off!” she announced, practically buzzing with excitement.
Ivan straightened slightly in his seat, already bracing himself. He knew what was coming next. After all, a person doesn’t just release a rejection song without raising a few eyebrows.
“For those who don’t know,” she began, turning her attention to the camera, “MAPS is a heart-wrenching song about yearning and rejection!” She let the words linger, her dramatic delivery pulling the audience in, before turning back to Ivan with a glint of mischief in her eyes. “So, naturally, everyone has been dying to know—just who managed to break the Ivan’s heart?”
The room seemed to hold its breath, her question hanging in the air as Ivan’s smile faltered, just for a second. It wasn’t the first time he’d heard it, and it wouldn’t be the last.
Or I give Ivan Hanahaki and make it everyone's problem
Or or My take on the Hanahaki trope (i.e trying to make it more logical) because I have beef with how people write it

Summary
Ivan had never experienced love before. Usually, his crushes were short and fleeting, but with Till… It was different.
Ivan thought throughout his entire life, his sister would be the only person to truly understand him. But when Till came along, he made Ivan feel new to the language that made up his entire being. Like translating text over and finding nuances to words you never would have known beforehand. Until someone took a close look at you and appreciated you in full.
After only a few months together, Ivan doesn’t remember where he began or where Till ended anymore. They were emulsified.
Everyone thinks Till and Ivan are dating, which is impossible when Till is in love with Mizi. Hijinks Ensue.

Summary
As we rest here alone like notes on a page,
The finest to compose could not play our pain.
With a candle through time I can still see your ghost.
I hate that it seemed you were never enough,
We were broken and bleeding but never gave up.
And I hope that I sing through your memory.
I hope that we meet in another life
("Another Life" by Motionless in White)Ivan looks at the stars, their flickering echoing painfully in his chest, the quiet glow reminding him of familiar eyes.
"In another reality, if I were to reach out, would I be able to reach your heart?"
Or Ivan is plagued by blurred memories of his past life, and Till is a suspended college student who seems too familiar to be a stranger.

Summary
Till is a phenomenon, a famous actor, a living legend. When the new movie he is starring in has a global press tour, Till needs a translator to get him across the world and make sure his words are heard. And there is nobody more fit for this job than his close friend Ivan, a polyglot who is also the screenwriter of the movie.
In a whirlwind of tangled words, things always get lost in translation. But feelings? They are not so easy to hide behind the boundaries of language.Series

Summary
It can't be.
It isn't possible.
The hair is different. Longer, wavy. He's more muscular, too, than Till remembers him being, bulging visibly with his arms crossed like that. There's a scratch on his nose that's in the beginning stages of healing, and his clothes are stained with what looks like segyein blood.
But the look in his eyes is nothing like the cold, despising gaze that haunts Till. It's warm and red and alive.
Till chokes around the word.
It couldn't be, but there he is.
Ivan.

Or, in short, Till and Ivan find themselves in a life beyond their original expectancy. Now what?Bookmarked by galacteddy

Summary
Dropping the mic sounds out like a death knell to him; the final nail in his soon to be made coffin. Ivan’s long since made peace with the maw of the void, so stepping up to its open mouth isn’t why he’s afraid.
What actually scares Ivan, is having to live with the consequences.

Summary
He was fourteen when it started, and twenty-two when it ended, if it ever really did. The dates are important. They matter because any blurriness in them and bad words start getting thrown around. Words like abuse and taken advantage, things that really don’t apply to him and certainly didn’t then, when he had wanted everything he got.
After managing to go a year without contact, Arthur receives a letter that brings him right back into Dutch’s orbit. He’s dying, and despite his usual theatrics, this time he means it.
Or, how Arthur watched his abuser die and got his groove back.

Summary
“It’s like my ad says,” Tang Fan says. “We can talk. Or you can talk, and I can listen, or I can talk to you. About anything. Or … I could talk dirty to you?”
Tang Fan does have regulars who want sex stuff, but really, what he does only qualifies as phone sex maybe one call in twenty. Mostly, it’s just Tang Fan chatting with lonely people. But he can handle the sexy stuff, obviously, and if the Man with the Sexy Voice wants sexy, Tang Fan is very willing to — actually, he decides, a little unnerved by his own enthusiasm, better not to finish that thought. This is a business transaction, after all. This is the gig economy.
“Not this time,” the Man with the Sexy Voice says, almost apologetic, like he’s forgotten that he’s paying Tang Fan for this. “Just — maybe if you could talk to me about something you find interesting?”
In which Tang Fan develops some rather inconvenient feelings for a late-night caller to his phone sex line.
