Summary
(Companion fic to Out Alive)
Even now, watching this back on the TV, Flash is impressed at how well his classmate fared onstage. His aunt’s cries are heard in the distance, and Flash can still picture Ned’s and MJ’s silent sobs from standing just a few rows behind them.
Then, Coulson’s hand disappears into the pool for the second tribute. Boy or girl, whether they're a 12-year-old fetus or an 18-year-old that just finished school, Peter will have to work with this person if he has an inkling of a shot at winning, as the Games only allow two winners if they come from the same district.
Problem is, with Peter being a dead kid walking, that likely means his partner will be a dead kid walking too.
“Flash Thompson.”
And the other dead kid walking is me.

Set in the Hunger Games universe, this is Out Alive from Flash Thompson’s POV.
Follow him on his journey from bully, to friend, and most importantly, to survivor (in more ways than one)

Summary
After the events of Mockingjay, Johanna Mason goes home to District Seven. While she's happy to be back, she can't find it in herself to celebrate, not when she has no one to celebrate it with.
Well, a knock at the door is about to change that.

Summary
Her father hands the phone’s receiver to Johanna. “Honey, Finnick Odair wants to talk to you.”
The teenager can’t help but be surprised, her eyes widening in alarm. “What? But why?”
“The Finnick Odair?” her mother says, equally shocked, “Yeah, that’s a good question.”
Cedric says with a snicker, “Maybe he has the hots for her like the rest of the Capitol—”
His sister cuts him off with a light slap upside his head. “He already has the Capitol wrapped around his finger, dumbass, why would he want to talk to me?”
-
Johanna and Finnick's unlikely friendship developed through phone calls until they meet in person for the first time during Johanna's Victory Tour. They vent, banter, but most importantly:
They're there for each other.

Summary
This is where my Ace Flash fics are kept! I recommend reading them in order since they'll take place in the same universe and the second one is a follow-up.
I also combined this universe wth my The New Normal series, so there will be some overlap and references (highly recommend reading the first fic in that series for more information).

Summary
This series is about Peter's diagnosis and struggle with Pediatric Multiple Sclerosis (aka MS), a chronic illness that attacks your nervous system.
I recommend reading the first fic in the series before reading the others, that one gives you the most information to understand what he's going through.
I also combined this universe wth my Ace Flash Thompson series, so there will be some overlap and references.

Summary
Eugene 'Flash' Thompson is born into a family that couldn't care less about him. As he grows up, the abuse worsens, and he dons a persona to cope with his struggles. But as events occur, like the Blip and the entirety of his summer trip to Europe, he's forced to pull his life together.
Not without the help of some friends of course.
Basically a character study and a redemption fic where Eugene Thompson is more than just a stereotypical bully side character.

Based off of Carol telling Daryl he needs to shower, and if he didn’t she'd hose him down herself.
Aka Daryl gets forced to shower. Fluff ensues!

Daryl wasn’t used to things like wanting hugs. He wasn’t used to having anyone who wanted to give them, or anyone he’d trust to do it. The idea of wanting hugs, comfort, stuff like that…
It was just weird.

Summary
When her lungs are balloons filled big enough to burst, Maggie tilts her face up toward the sky and spins, spins, spins–until the galaxy molds itself into beautiful rings, twisting and swirling and sparkling. She twirls until she’s dizzy, until she falls onto the grass with a light head. Until she smells the Earth, pressed right up against her heart.
Carl lands on his butt next to her. He’s breathless, hand on his chest. His heart beats a humming-bird’s tune but he’s still smiling. Still alive. They’re alive.
The moon is full.
Maggie peers at Her and knows She’d understand what it’s like to be looked at bare by sick, salivating men. The Moon knows what it’s like to be unable to hide from the gazes that feel like honey and blood, slimy, grotesque, terrifying–and she’d understand why Maggie wants to be far, far out of reach.
-
Or;
Maggie reels from a tragedy and finds will to heal and hurt through Carl and truth. -

Summary
Every window and door of every classroom is packed with students.
But nobody’s laughing . . . because they all know. They know what these kids did and they know exactly why this is happening. And these students aren’t stupid; they also know exactly what the underlying lesson is and, given the choked, thick silence, seem to be taking it to heart.
Then someone sees Tony, trailing several steps behind the group of disgraced former students and their soon-to-be-disgraced — and disgraceful — principal . . . and starts clapping. It spreads like a tidal wave until the entire student population of Midtown is cheering and applauding him.
Because he stood up for them. He noticed there was an actual, serious problem and he stepped up and solved it.
