Summary
"We were so worried, we heard you—" Ragatha starts, and then looks up. She meets Jax's gaze dead-on, and goes silent. Tears brim in the corner of her eye. Her hand flies up to cover her mouth. He can't tell if the look on her face is relief or fear.
Gangle's staring at him like she's seen a ghost. Pomni slowly raises to her feet, brows furrowed. She winces as every movement jars her wavering form.
Cowered on the floor, panting, confused and disoriented, with everyone standing above him, taller than him… it reminds Jax of something deeply unpleasant. They're all staring at him. They're all seeing him.
Jax knows they're not going to like what they see.
His breath quickens until his head is spinning, and he feels like he's going to vomit. He forces himself upwards with a frustrated cry, swaying in place, and then turns and bolts towards his room as fast as he can.
"NO!" Pomni screams.
(or: pomni pulls jax back from the brink.)

Summary
“Have you got anywhere to stay?” Jon asks him, briskly. “Friends, acquaintances, maybe, who you could stay with…?”
Martin flushes, deeply. “I, I mean— n-no, not really,” he stammers, and then goes even redder. “Or, just, y’know not that I’d want to, to. Put in the middle of this. Put in danger of, of worms.”
“Ah,” Jon says, “No, of course, that makes sense.” Why drag anyone else into this mess? Seven people died during Prentiss’s initial hospitalization; the collateral damage of roping someone from outside the Institute into her orbit doesn’t bare thinking about. “In that case…” Jon feels like there’s some alternative solution, one he’s just not thinking of at the moment, but it evades him, and Martin needs somewhere safe to stay. “My couch is quite comfortable. You’re welcome to come and stay with me until you figure something else out.”
Martin is held hostage by Jane Prentiss for two weeks, and can't go back to his flat. Jon offers him a place to stay until Prentiss and her worms can be dealt with, and they can be sure he's safe.

"Who the hell are you?" Jon could feel his hands shaking.
The man laughed, taking a step forward and raising a hand to point at him.
"I'm you, from the future!" he said, then swayed, eyes going unfocused, and collapsed to the floor in a dead faint.

Summary
Jon had always assumed that "love at first sight" was a conspiracy of capitalists, created to sell novels to teenagers and Disney films to children.
And then it struck him like a poorly secured piano dangling over an unsuspecting pedestrian.
Yet despite his crush on Martin Blackwood, Jon begins to realize Martin is guarding a slew of secrets regarding not just the future of the world, but Jon himself.
If only Martin would tell Jon what was going on...Series

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 ManagerAbigail Bailey runs a successful management advice blog. One frequent contributor is from a workplace with some... issues.

“Ah, a romantic. If only all of life worked that way, that he who wants something most, gets it.”

The First Law of Thermodynamics by Turbuggy

Summary
“The first law states energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can pass into or out of a closed system. The change in a system's internal energy is equal to the heat added minus the work done by the system.”
.
“Well? Go on.”
Now that he had captured Viktor’s attention, Jayce felt his anxiety reach its peak. There was something on his mind, that much was clear, but with those naturally intense golden eyes staring him down, he wasn’t feeling nearly as confident as he had been when he had first spoken.
“Jayce.”
“Why don’t you put your legs on my lap?”
In which Jayce attempts to solve the most daunting equation yet; how to get Viktor to relax.

Summary
Getting Viktor to relax around another person is like trying to pry apart two neodymium magnets, in Jayce's eyes. His partner is so strong and stubborn, so damn determined to do things by himself. So, when an opportunity arises wherein Viktor could use a helping hand, Jayce is always willing to give. He'll give, and give, and give until there's nothing left of him. After all, Viktor is his best friend; of course he wants to assist in whatever ways he can.
Besides, could anything ever actually stop him from wanting to be by Viktor's side?
He doubts it.
Or, five times Jayce carried Viktor, and one time Viktor walked completely on his own.

He knew, whether intentional or not, this was a grave marker."

Summary
Xie Lian had never traveled in his dreams before now. Never opened his eyes and found a different bedroom, different people, a different life. But he had heard of this curse long ago. A curse about people who could glimpse opportunities, other lives. Their souls would travel as they slept.
The only person he had known affected by it was a man whose wife had died. In his dreams, he saw her a thousand times, a thousand worlds where she had lived, and woke up in the world where she had not. Perhaps Xie Lian, too, had a traveler’s soul now, seeking out his Hua Cheng while he waited.
But Xie Lian was not grieving. He was only waiting until Hua Cheng was back and he would have no need for dreams.
