    Summary

    His hands shook as he clutched the edges of his jumper, pulling it tighter around himself. The events of the night played on a loop in his mind, each detail sharper and more horrifying than the last. He squeezed his eyes shut, trying to block it out, but the images wouldn’t leave him.

     

    The sickening crack as the bullet went off.

     

    The wet thump as his body fell to the floor.

     

    or

     

    Foster care au, two possessive ex-war vets and their new, traumatised son. More at 8

    Summary

    In the long list of rules that Dream gave him, there were four that stuck out as the most important. Four rules that he could never break.

    Stick close to the island when swimming. Always be back before seven. Never complain or hesitate to give Dream his pelt. And never, ever interact with humans.

    Tommy didn’t break any of those rules often, and if he did it was a one time thing, a mistake. But this wasn’t a mistake. This was a very deliberate, very stupid move on his part and Dream would kill him if he knew what Tommy was doing. Fifteen years Tommy had lived here, and never once had he intentionally broken one of Dream’s rules. Until now.

    He swims closer to the three humans.
    .
    Tommy's a selkie living isolated on an island with Dream as his caretaker. Wilbur, Techno, and Phil are the new lighthouse keepers next door. Surely there's no way for this to go wrong.

    Summary

    “You just… have to work your snake charm on the nobles. Help us out. If they find anything, and they will, we’re like sitting ducks. Ready for hunt, nothing more, nothing else. If you can… If you just manage… So at least Essempi doesn’t fucking murder us in our sleep.”

    Wilbur choked on his own breath. Impossible. It was impossible, he couldn’t mean that Soot, that Empire, that Essempi-!

    “If they don’t take you, I don’t know how we will avoid full out war. You said it yourself, for fucks sake!”

    Wilbur sobbed.

    “I died. I think I died,” he breathed.

    ________
    Or: Wilbur Ash gets isekaid into a novel he hates, into a character he despises. As the new Wilbur Soot, his goal is simple: he has to survive.

    Summary

    Techno's eyes travel from Tommy's head to his toes, recognition didn't flit across his face like Tommy had anticipated. Nine years did change a person a great deal. Techno, who had only been fourteen the last time Tommy had seen him, was now a grown man, well muscled, all traces of boyishness gone from his body. Though he was still recognizably Techno. Tommy on the other hand had been six. A runt with bright eyes and a firy personality. Tommy wondered if the years had rendered him too changed for his brother to know him.

    Then it happened. Tommy saw the instant Techno put the pieces together. He stood up in a rush, his book falling to the floor in a heap, while his beer sloshed around in its bottle.

    "Tommy?"

    OR

    Tommy winds up at Techno's doorstep after nine years of separation. He'd found him online via article. Apparently Tommy's brother was a semi famous bullrider. Tommy didn't care about that though, he just needed somewhere to stay. A cabin out in the middle of Texas would just have to do.

    Summary

    There is a strange way grief manifests. Grief twists and turns in a person’s chest, in a person’s mind, consuming and consuming until they either give in or they fight it with every bated breath. Grief manifests, strangely, in the turns of words repeated or moments felt. Grief manifests in the way hands no longer hold others, words are no longer exchanged, a moment is no longer bright and colourful and wonderful. Grief manifests in strange ways, in beautiful ways, in haunting ways.

    There is a strange way you can grieve someone before they’re even gone.

    (A family loves and a family breaks and a family heals, and it's hard to tell a story about a long-gone missed home.)
