    Summary

    In ancient greek, there are multiple words to describe what we in english nowadays call love. None of them is better than the others - they simply describe the feeling differently.

    They are 4 separate people - but, maybe, at the end, they could be 4 people together. No matter what happens after.

    Summary

    A comic re-posted from my Tumblr

    There's no reason Simon would wake up on the Hail Mary and act rationally after dying in a blood ocean.

    So, he doesn't

    Good luck to Grace and Rocky

    Summary

    Somewhere else, some place else, there is a book. On most pages there are the words “My father was a good man.” On each page the handwriting is different. There is a new page now, though, one that appeared with Dick’s death, and in spindly handwriting on this new page there are new words: my brother was a good man.

    Summary

    Martyn tried, nerves squirming in him at speaking out of turn, “M’lord, I hope you don’t mind me saying this, but we need to get you out of the open. Do you know if you’re able to walk?”

    The proper response– the one he’d come to expect, at the very least– was a snapped correction and then some promised punishment, the Red King’s sour insecurity coming out to bite at his own allies. Just anticipating it made Martyn’s hands itch for his weapon: maybe as soon as the king turned his head he’d chop him apart like a log, like he’d been practicing. Maybe he’d do it before the bastard got a single word out.

    “I’m not sure I can walk,” the Red King rasped, putting paid to that notion. “But, um, I— I expect I might be able to stand with some help, if you’d be willing?”

    Summary

    In the aftermath of Oakhurst, Abolish returns to work, but finds himself joined by two very familiar faces. "Done with those lunatics," he definitely was not. Still, he's got a job to do, and he's going to stick at it, even with two divorced-situationship/whatever-the-hell vampires flanking him. Abolish can be professional about the whole thing. His two new coworkers, however...

    AU in which Owen and Legs both survive VSMP and join Abolish in the shadow organisation. Neither are coping with working with the other in a remotely normal fashion.

    Summary

    His eyes snapped open to hunger and dirt. He cursed and dug his way out of his grave. This didn't make any sense, he'd been staked, and there was no way that was all a dream, not again. But he'd died, he felt himself crumble away, and the only other explanation from it being a dream was that-

    Oh.

    This was his hell, wasn't it? He was going to relive his final months here in this accursed town, surrounded by traitors and monsters, forever. Without Louis.

    Owen blinked. “Wine? Anti-staking wine?”

    Pyro nodded, trying to keep it casual, as if handing a toddler a fire extinguisher labelled ‘Do Not Consume, But Maybe.’ “Yes. Totally legal. Scott keeps it there for… you know… obvious reasons. HR emergencies, corporate meltdowns, ritual destruction, and uh I dunno, general Owen temper containment.”

    “Oh, Wylan,” said Nina, peering through the half-open door of her room at the Sweet Shop. “Again?”
    “It’s not as if I do it on purpose,” Wylan muttered through his swelling lip.

    Dainix first wielded a knife when he was seven.

    "Be careful," said his dad seriously. "It's very, very sharp, which is good for control, but it can slice your fingers as easily as it can slice those vegetables. Understand?"

    Dainix nodded solemnly. His fingers, so much smaller than his dad's, curled around the handle of a gleaming chopping knife.

    Or: a character study of Dainix and his relationships with the rest of the cast through the lens of cooking.

    Summary

    It was rather unusual for a twelve-year-old to have two full-replacement automail limbs. Edward typically tried to cover every inch of skin and metal to avoid the questions, but unfortunately, it couldn’t always be helped. When asked the question, “How’d you lose your limbs?”, the usual story was that Ed had lost them in the Eastern Conflict.

    But what if he decided to take a more… interesting approach? After all, if Al wears the armor as a hobby, why can’t Ed have lost his arm against a bear?

    Or, Fullmetal Alchemist where everything is the same but Ed comes up with increasingly more insane ways for him to be short a few body parts.

    "Alright, alright, I get it," Mumbo grumbles. "So assuming there's something wrong with my soul. And seeing as stealing yours obviously came with its own problems-"

    "Hilarious problems," Grian interjects.

    "How would you suggest I fix it? Because frankly, it seems as though whatever I've been doing hasn't been working."

    Sometimes you take Old Norse as a language elective to flex on your fellow doctors and then you're the only person who can treat this random-ass escapee from the Yggdrasil System, and you and all the nurses in the hospital just have to deal with the crazy shit that goes on in there
    And maybe wish that you could have an intelligently designed spine.

    Hi, this is Tim Stoker. I can’t take your call because I’m doing something way more fun than talking to you right now. Unless you’re Sasha. If you’re Sasha, I’ll make it up to you with pizza soon. Promise!

    Tim. Tim? Pick up your goddamn phone, Tim! I—I need to talk to you. I need to talk to someone. Just, what’s going on? What’s happened to the world? I—shit! Shit! Oh—oh god, oh god, I—

    A few minutes after Jon destroys Not-Sasha, the real Sasha opens her eyes on a changed world full of monsters and horror, and the only contact left on her phone is Tim. She calls Tim, and she starts to walk.

    Jon manages to keep himself from reading all of the Watcher’s Crown and then, somehow, he isn’t there anymore. He’s in the Archives, years earlier. He can fix everything before it starts, right?

    Wrong. He’s in Georgie’s flat. There’s still time to make things right, it’s not too late, surely?

    Wrong. The Archives, except that that’s not—is that Martin? That’s probably—

    Wrong. Scotland. Maybe this was all just a bad dream. Martin says it was all just a bad dream. Martin’s always so right, even if he’s acting off. Even if his hair is streaked with spiderweb.

    Summary

    I've recently been unexpectedly promoted to lead a department in my organisation, wrote the anonymous emailer.

     

    As there was no one working here when I arrived, my manager, who is head of the organisation, had promised me the choice of my own assistants. However, without warning, he simply presented me with an additional assistant. This new assistant’s first act on his first day was to let a dog into the office. It took several hours to catch and clean up after this dog and it has only been downhill from there. I admit I'm not entirely sure what to do with this assistant now I'm stuck with him. I'm hoping you have some advice?

     

    Kind regards,
    New Manager
