Summary
The first snowfall in Boston that year brings several things: a heavy layer of dirty snow coating all the roads of the city; a freezing, threatening cold to the air both inside and out; all incoming flights to Logan getting grounded before they could even think about taking off; and the breaking rumors that Ilya Rozanov is fucking men in his spare time.

Summary
Andrew stares blankly down at Neil’s bare fourth finger. Then he looks up at Neil’s scarred face, his deep blue eyes that stand out even against the summer horizon of this godforsaken city, and he wonders yet again if he knows about the ring tucked away in the bottom drawer of the double vanity.
One more surprise, Abram. I think I want to marry you.
Andrew buys a ring. It takes a while before he makes any use of it.

Summary
It is a weird thing to wake up and realise that for the first time in 800 years, you are no longer in love. Hua Cheng felt it even before he opened his eyes, could taste it in the back of his throat. Even the air around him felt different: stale, and with a strange odour to it. With his eyes still closed, he took stock of his other mental facilities, and it all came back in order, except—
Except that for the first time in 800 years, he thinks of Xie Lian and feels nothing.
(in which Hua Cheng's devotion gets stolen, and no one is happy about it.)

Summary
Jean asks for a favor. Neil finds himself at the center of a territorial squabble. It's him. He's the territory.
“But why me?”
“You are my only good option. Aaron is straight. Andrew is rabid. Allison and Seth are on and off so often it’s impossible to keep track. Dan and Matt are a couple and getting them both to agree to pretend to date me would be harder. Renee doesn’t like men. Katelyn is lovely but Aaron would be angry. I don’t know which of the others started or stopped dating over the summer. That leaves you."
“What about Kevin?”
Jean scoffs. “You cannot be serious.”
“He’s…” What is Kevin? Not any better at telling Riko ‘no’ than Jean is, and, subsequently, probably not great at lying to him. Also, is it really believable that Kevin would jeopardize the team and their athletic careers by shitting where he eats? Probably not. Kevin’s amended hierarchy of needs just has the word EXY at the base. Somewhere far above that are pedestrian concerns like ‘food’ and ‘water’ and ‘shelter.’
“Taller,” Neil finishes lamely. “He’s taller.”

Summary
“I want this,” Jeremy says, his voice cracking as the words tumble hopelessly out. “I want to keep playing. I think I will die if I don’t. Jean, I—”
“Okay,” says Jean, thumbing under his eyes. “Then you will keep playing.”
Jeremy shakes his head. “Is it really that simple?”
“Yes,” says Jean. “It is.”
Jeremy navigates the reality of his future. He also navigates the reality of Jean.

Summary
“You signed the contract to play for us,” says Jeremy, and he sounds a little helpless. Jean spins around and stares at him.
“I did not know,” he says. “I did not know what Kevin was doing until it was too late. He did not give me a choice. Neil didn’t either, I—I was—” Dying. Breaking. Drowning. Drowning. Drowning. “No. It does not matter. I do not have any other option. I have to play. I will die if I don’t.”
In which Jean and Jeremy dated long distance and broke up before Jean's transfer to the Trojans.

Summary
“I hate you,” says Andrew. He thinks about the version of Neil in his dreams, the one that slipped beneath his covers with him at Easthaven and slept next to him with two feet of space between their hands. He should have known it was a dream the moment Neil climbed into his bed—nobody gives Andrew his space. Nobody enters his bed and does not immediately press themselves to him as close as possible.

Will leads them to a sanctuary where they are only themselves: here, they are severed from the collar’s pull. They find it is Sarcean’s former estate, perfectly preserved in time.

Bookmarker's Notes
"no one," will admits, slowly, "i taught myself; i didn’t have anyone to write to. but i thought— someday, when i did, that i could be ready for it."
will’s voice is steady. the future is in his eyes.
"that i could be prepared for someone to write to, and for them to answer back."

Summary
He sounds so much like himself. Will wants to believe it, wants every story about the collar to be wrong so badly.
But –
"Tell me who I am."
James tilts his head in curiosity, but complies.
"You are Will Kempen."
"Who else?"
"Sarcean, the Dark King."
Will closes his eyes and inhales a shaky breath, once again swallowing the scream stuck in his throat.
"Don’t you mind at all?"
"Why would I?"
Because this is what you've always been afraid of. This is why your family cast you out and Sinclair took you in. They made you believe that all you would ever amount to was betraying people for Him. For me. But then you found out it was all a lie and for the first time in your life, you were free to choose your future. Until now.
__If there is a way to remove the collar, Will is going to find it.
(picks up right after Dark Heir)

Summary
The ball flies into the air, and the middle court erupts into motion. Natsu’s eyes are unable to track everybody so instead they zero in on Shouyou, and as she watches with her little human eyes, Shouyou takes his short, average legs and jumps higher than she’s seen anybody jump before, easily clearing the heads of all his teammates, like an angel that’s had his wings taken away because the heavens knew he didn’t need them.
Or like the sun. Commanding and bright and a little unreachable, the indisputable facts Natsu holds close to her heart. Scientific decree. Natsu’s Law: for every older brother in the center of the universe, his little sister will follow as the moon.

Summary
“Okay, okay, wait, don’t look at me like that,” Tooru laughs, bringing one hand up to cup Tobio’s cheek. “I’ll make it up to you.”
“Will you?” Tobio says. “You did just beat me in my own country in front of the world, you know. It’ll take a lot of begging to get back in my good graces.”
“Will it?” Tooru lilts, and he feels so ridiculous. It’s so big and bright that he thinks for a second that it’ll burst through the domed ceiling above them and reach all the way to the moon—and then back, because he’s always been one for cliches. He unfurls his hand. “Even if I ask you to marry me?”
Marriage comes for them slow and winding, from Olympic circuit to honey-gold wedding ring. They have time. They'll make it.

Summary
Kaveh scoffs. “Oh, please! Us as best friends? Nobody would believe it. You might as well have us pretend to be lovers!”
He waits for Tighnari and Cyno to roll their eyes or shake their heads or say, Haha, good one, Kaveh, we should get you a stand-up comedy show in addition to all your amazing gigs. He doesn’t expect them to exchange a serious look.
To convince the public that they don’t hate each other, famous actors Kaveh and Alhaitham pretend to be in a relationship. Too bad they actually hate each other.
At least, Kaveh thinks they do.
