    Summary

    In the end, it doesn’t matter. None of it fucking matters. Because what’s really in control is the tension. This elusive string tied between their chests that’s always changing length. Right now it’s so short and taught and strong that Will can’t imagine resisting it. So really, it was never a matter of if he would. Just when. When will he fold? When will he let go and let himself follow Mike into the water?

    He dares to glance down at his knees, where he can see Mike’s fingers peeking out from behind his calves (as if he needed that visual reminder that they’re touching), and then back up to meet Mike’s expectant gaze.

    He’s going to do it. He’s such a fucking idiot.

    OR

    Mike & Will have a long overdue conversation on the way back to Hawkins— by, in, and around a random motel pool.

    Summary

    It’s winter in Hawkins, and Mike and Will aren’t speaking anymore. Living in Mike’s house, Will tries to be invisible, spending most of his time in the basement.

    Then the power goes out — and if there’s one thing he dreads more than facing Mike, it’s the cold.

    or

    Seven nights in which Mike and Will have to sleep in the same bed, even though they’re barely friends anymore.

    Summary

    In the event Alhaitham saw Kaveh again, he thought Kaveh might've looked at him like a stranger. Like he didn't know him.

    But here, now, Kaveh looks at Alhaitham like he knows him. Like they're anything but strangers.

    He does. They are.

    They're so much more than that and they both know it. You can't throw away a decades worth of friendship and hatred and joy and heartache away in a single movement.

    They knew each other. They know each other now.

    But the difference between now and then is that today, instead of going home together, they will go their separate ways.

    Alhaitham, to the empty home they once shared.

    Kaveh, to the new life he's building.

    //or, kaveh moves out but can't seem to stay away.

    Summary

    I felt like the world needed yet another fic based on this lovely tumblr prompt: https://captainkirkk.tumblr.com/post/628849887874842624/au-where-the-war-ends-for-reasons-fire-lord

    ”Dad’s marrying you off to some water tribe peasant.”

    Zuko’s head jerks up to see Azula on his doorstep, leaning against the doorframe while inspecting her nails in an obvious attempt to come off as unbothered. Or maybe she genuinely doesn’t care. Zuko can rarely tell.

    He puts down his book and sits up on his bed, giving his sister his full attention, knowing very well that she won’t leave until she’s done taunting him.

    ”What do you mean?” he says, not really registering the words that have come out of Azula’s mouth until now. Azula is always taunting him about something. Usually it’s inconsequential, her dangling something over his head because she can, because she’s the favorite, because she’s perfect and Zuko’s not.

    ”I heard him talk about it with one of his advisors,” she says. ”Apparently emissary Liang is there negotiating the terms as we speak.”

    ”You’re lying,” he says, narrowing his good eye at her.
