Hayden Pike wins best gay ally (against nobody) by ten_steps_away
Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV)

Summary
Hayden didn't know exactly how to support your gay best friend who is married to his long time ex-rival, but he thinks he's doing a pretty damn good job at figuring it out. But he can never be too much of an ally, and if it takes finding out his best friends sexual preferences to support him, then Hayden is prepared to make that sacrifice
ft. Hayden getting involved in hollanov top/bottom twitter discourse, vaguely helpful online articles and lots and lots of incorrect opinions (that may need correcting)

Summary
They watch him flounder for a few more embarrassing seconds before he finally gets it off and hops on. Max lets him ride away for a few seconds before she sighs heavily, rubbing the bridge of her nose. "Please don't tell me I'm the only one who thinks that Mike has been acting really fucking weird lately."
or; Mike Wheeler is having some trouble juggling his responsibilities and his desire to spend time with his boyfriend. I'm sure this won't go badly at all

Summary
It was mostly busy work anyway. He would pile himself into his car with a short list of people and drive around the neighbourhood, attending to mind-numbing noise complaints and spending half an hour trying to get out of a conversation with the old man that lived on the corner of Kerley.
or; Hopper thought his day was going to be quiet, before he finds Will crumpled up in some side street. He helps him, and maybe grows a little closer with the kid.

Summary
'Will avoids Mike's wide eyes, trying to keep the blush from his cheeks. "The King would never agree." He points out.
"You underestimate my powers of persuasion." Mike says, grinning. "Just leave it to me."
"For the record, I still don't think this is a very good idea." Will mumbles.
"That's not a no."
Will glares at him. He had never been much good at saying no to Mike. "I guess not."'
Will has been training as a Cleric for as long as he can remember, and for all that time Mike has been by his side. The crown prince of the kingdom, and his closest friend. But as Mike's duties and the true meaning behind Will's powers begin to close in on them, they're forced to confront what it is they truly mean to each other, and what that means for everybody else.

Summary
“Your lungs have collapsed. You can barely breathe on your own. Aang’s been keeping you alive with airbending.”
Oh. That explains a lot. Zuko can’t do anything but choke in response.
Thankfully, the Water Tribe boy isn’t looking for a response. “Not even four hours ago, Katara was the only thing keeping you from bleeding out on the pier. You’re probably just minutes away from being back where you were then.” He accentuates his point by gently applying more pressure to Zuko’s injury. Fucking ow. “You need them. If you want to stay alive, you don’t try anything. Okay?”
Shit.
. . .
When his ship explodes, Zuko isn't so lucky to get away unscathed. No amount of firebending can protect him from the solid steel the explosion launches everywhere. His ship is lodged in his chest, and he can't breathe. He must rely on the Avatar to do it for him.

Summary
“I don’t think that it has to mean that you’re into guys,” Lucas says. His words are accompanied by a casual shrug, and said in the tone of someone who has clearly already given this subject some thought. Will doesn’t know what to do with that information. Jump from a building, maybe. “I mean, we’d all get flustered if Spider-Man carried us in his arms.”
Mike points to him enthusiastically. “Thank you, Lucas.”
Dustin looks between the two of them, his eyes narrowed.
“...Would we?”
“Sure,” Mike concludes. “He’s attractive. That’s not a weird thing to think.”
Will just barely resists the urge to bang his head against the table. He feels Dustin’s eyes glued to his burning face, and sinks even further down his chair.
In which Mike tells Spider-Man that he has a crush on his best friend, and Will jumps to some very wrong conclusions.

Summary
The Wheelers and the Byers have been living together for eight months. Mike and Will have been dating for two of them.
Will figures keeping their relationship quiet should be simple enough. After all, he kept his feelings for Mike hidden for years on end—with Jonathan the only person to realize something was going on. But in the Wheeler household, as it turns out, secrets aren’t so easy to keep.

Summary
“You’re okay.”
It was a voice he’d recognise anywhere and instead of yanking away as he once might have, Sokka sat and breathed quivering breaths as Zuko ran a thumb along his neck and eased him through his breakdown.
“You should hate me,” he whispered, broken and cracking.
Zuko squeezed, “I know.”
He was gone by the time Bato found Sokka again, nothing left of their encounter besides the warmth still etched into his neck and the odd feeling settling into his gut.
OR
As victors of the Hunger Games, Sokka and Zuko navigate a complicated relationship in a world just waiting to watch them tear each other apart.
