    Summary

    Five years after the world was ravaged by a zombie outbreak, what remains of humanity has learned how to survive in their new apocalypse. In their new normal, the dead wander the earth with insatiable appetites, families have been ripped apart, citizens have been abandoned, and the Reds thrive amongst the chaos.

    When an unfortunate run-in with some Reds and an inconveniently-timed thunderstorm forces Soap to separate from Price and Gaz during their hunting session, he finds himself washed up on the doorstep of a wooden cabin. Only he's not alone.

    Soap should probably be more worried about the masked stranger with a furrowed brow pointing an arrow at his chest, but there's something intriguing about him, secrets hidden deep within his heart and walls impenetrably built up. And even more shocking is the fact that the stranger allows him inside to take refuge.

    What starts at that moment which neither realize is the beautiful unfolding of a love story between two people who were meant to find each other. It's about learning to trust again, the power of forgiveness, finding hope in the world that has ripped everything from you already, and falling into the arms of someone who will love you unconditionally.

    Summary

    Unable to see through killing Cath on Smurf's orders, Pope leaves Oceanside for good and adopts a new alias: Andrew Miller. Mild, unremarkable, someone who keeps to himself. That is, until he meets a mousy ED doctor who, for reasons he cannot fathom, cares.

    In the ten years he's been on the run, Andrew's had a million reasons to pick up and leave. But Dennis Whitaker might just be the first reason he finds to stay.

    Summary

    At thirty years old, Sanji likes to think he’s doing fine — if you ignore the divorce, the empty apartment, and the fact that his work is the only thing keeping him from falling headfirst into an early midlife crisis.

    So when he walks into his old gym on autopilot after a long trip and finds it replaced by a tattoo studio, he does the only rational thing:

    …committing to a massive piece that’ll cost him a fortune and trap him in close quarters with the unfairly attractive yet impossibly rude artist behind the counter.

    It’s not like it's the worst idea he’s ever had, okay?

    (Though maybe he should’ve gone with the word impulsive tattooed across his arm to stop him from repeating mistakes like this.)

    But when the dreaded session turns into a day of laughter, teasing, and warmth he hasn’t felt in years, he can’t wait to come back.

    A story about the value of found family, learning to love again, and trying to charm your way through life with extravagant food.

    Summary

    One shift at the Pitt changes everything when a newborn with no name is brought in.

    What starts as a temporary situation quickly becomes something far more complicated for Abbott — and for Robby, who finds himself pulled into the quiet, unexpected gravity of a life neither of them planned.

    Between long nights at the hospital and the fragile calm of home, they discover that sometimes the hardest lines to hold are the ones around your own heart.

    Summary

    Jack Abbot kissed me three days ago.

     

    ///

     

    After Heather, he swore he would never date another coworker again. The breakup wasn’t easy, and their interactions were so awkward and tense for a while. The effects were felt throughout the Pitt. Not that he wants to date Jack. No. Absolutely not. The kiss was a mistake. It was the beer and a trauma response. They’ve been gravitating to each other more lately, needing each other.

     

    ///

    Robby told himself he was not going to date anyone after Dr. Collins. He also carries a mental List in his mind of all the people whom he's wronged or he fears he disappointed or cannot help. He can't possibly explore any feelings he may have for the night shift attending. No, not until The List is whittled down or gone.

    What could happen if The List is completed? Could he make an exception for the younger attending? Old habits are hard to break. It seems like Jack Abbot could just be the thing that Robby needs.

    Summary

    “It’s going to be fine,” Jack promises him, as if he can promise him that. “Flu’s not taking you down, is it?”

    “Guess it’s your job to make sure it doesn’t,” Robby replies. Despite the verbal blows Jack just aimed right into his ribs, he still feels bad for the way Jack’s face drains of color once he’s said it. “Jack—”

    “Go lay down before it starts,” Jack instructs him, and Robby recognizes Dr. Abbot taking over in more ways than one. “I’ll come check on you in an hour, alright?”

    For one more heartbeat, Jack doesn’t move. Again, Robby feels the pang down the center of his chest into his stomach that simultaneously tells him to kiss him and reminds him that he can’t.

    or: robby catches a deadly flu in the pitt while treating patients. jack is his only hope for survival.

    Summary

    Life has never favoured Shinsou, exemplified thusly: even a simple evening errand to retrieve groceries cannot pass quietly and without incident. No, rather Shinsou is hit with a quirk that thoroughly strips him of every inch of his dignity and actively encourages him to choose a new identity and never be seen again.

    The quirk makes him cry. Specifically, it makes him bawl when he looks at Aizawa and Yamada.

    Summary

    He repeats it a few times, scratches his neck, slaps himself again, and then falls into his bed. He groans at the way it bothers his bruised ribs, but he lays there in the pain, letting it cleanse him from his thoughts earlier.

    Here, in the haze of his pain, he is whole, normal, pure. He is repenting, paying his dues, accepting his punishment. He doesn’t need his pa for that, he can do it himself, make sure he’s not some dirty gay.

    Gary hasn’t believed in God in a very long time; in fact, he’s certain there isn’t one. But there has to be some truths in the world, and this has to be one of them.

    Gary Barkovitch is normal. And if he isn’t, he’ll break himself until his bones set right.
    ———————
    OR - All Gary Barkovitch's life, he has been the starving mutt wandering the edge of the street light, baring his teeth at any approaching person. Maybe, now in Maine, he can learn to lower his hackles and let people in.

    Summary

    McVries tells him about meeting Ray when he’d only just meant to be passing through Freeport. He casually asks Stebbins if he believes in soulmates while he’s elbow-deep in the ceiling, and when Stebbins freezes stock still on the ladder, he only laughs that easy laugh of his and keeps on describing their meet-cute like he wasn’t really expecting an answer anyway. It’s a sweet story. Romantic, at least in the way McVries tells it.

    It’s the kind of story that twists Stebbins up in places he didn’t even realize could get knots until his smile looks like it hurts. It was love at first sight. McVries doesn’t ask if he believes in that, too, and Stebbins is grateful that he doesn’t have to stutter out an answer that he’s not entirely sure he knows.

    Summary

    It was foolish of them to expect McVries to let Garraty bleed out while he had them in the palm of his hand. So foolish that McVries almost laughed, something bitter and disbelieving catching in his throat, but he'd been too close to tears to really get it out—or maybe he was already crying when he said it, maybe he was bawling his eyes out and struggling against soldiers, but he can't make heads or tails of those last moments before Garraty was rushed off. He just knew he had said it, had wished for his life, because he'd never been more sure of what he'd wanted before.

    Save Ray Garraty, he'd said, or screamed, or cried—and they had to.

    Saving Ray Garraty had been the easy part—was the easy part, would always be the easy part—it was what came after that was hard.

    or

    McVries uses his wish to save Garraty. They learn how to live and heal together.

    Summary

    Ray Garraty entered the Long Walk, with a wish to kill the Major fresh in his mind, and a sunhat and baseball packed ready in his bag to walk who knows how far. 10 miles, 100, who knew? But he was as ready as he could be, waiting for the Walk to start and surrounded by boys who may or may not be dead before the final stretch, whose bodies would litter the stretch of road ahead of them.
    And looking around and introducing himself to the other Walkers, Ray thought that yeah, maybe he could do this.

    But hell, he wasn't expecting a kid to be here.

    Summary

    An old blue Ford pulls into the guarded parking lot that morning, looking like a small, tired dog after a hard run. Except that doesn’t make sense, does it? There should be no car, no worried mother, no...

    There should be nothing. There was nothing, wasn’t there?

    Why is there something now?

    ***

    Ray Garraty dies. It's only the beginning.

    Summary

    Ray had sworn he'd been a dead man. His ticket had gotten punched. Three warnings to forty-seven, and he was more than sure that he'd die. He was ready to give it all up for Pete. He trusted him with his idea in taking out the Major. And when Pete was ready to give his own life up to make sure Ray's idea happened, he knew he had to do the same.

    He falls unconscious due to his gun shot wounds, believing that he has succumbed to his injuries. Despite that, Ray finds himself waking in an unfamiliar room and a hazy memory of what had happened once the Walk had ended. The only thing he's sure of? He loves Pete - that wouldn't change. But there was no reason he should be alive, not if Pete was the winner.

    Not until he finds out that Pete's one wish was his life.

    Summary

    “This is a waste of my goddamn time,” the boss snapped, swinging his fist at Soap’s jaw. Again.

    “Really?” Soap spat blood onto the floor, his binds flexing at the motion. “And here I thought we were starting to bond.”

    The man’s attention— and his pistol— turned towards Ghost. “Tell me, does he ever shut the fuck up?” It was a bluff, Soap knew it was, but it didn’t stop the smirk from falling off his face. Only realizing his mistake a second too late.

    Oh,” their captor said smugly, gun back at Ghost’s temple as his eyes flicked between the two. “I see. We’ve been going about this all wrong, haven’t we? Let’s try this again…”

    or

    After months undercover, all that stood between Soap and freedom was an exit plan. When it goes awry, he and Ghost are left at the mercy of a cartel boss, who’s determined to get his revenge.

    With all their time apart, are Soap and Ghost still in-tune enough to escape?

    Summary

    If anyone bothered to ask Ghost who he was, he figured he'd just stare at them for a moment, and say three simple words.

     

    "A stray dog."

     

    He didn't mean to bite. Didn't mean to bare his teeth or snap at every outstretched hand.

    It wasn't in his nature—not really.

    He didn't want to be like this.

    He just didn't know how to be anything else.

    — # —

    "Jesus fucking Christ, MacTavish," Ghost snapped, his voice cutting through Soap like a bullet through bone, making mincemeat of his heart as it dropped clear to his feet. "Shut the fuck up."

    — # —

    In the wake of Hassan's death and stolen moments in Las Almas, Soap can't seem to quiet his mind—and Ghost won't let himself rest. Haunted by guilt and convinced he's the problem, Ghost starts doing what he does best: pushing people away before they can see the mess he really is.

    If he's alone, maybe Soap will be safe.

    But Johnny MacTavish has never been good at backing down.

    “Cap, what’s going on?”
    Price turns half towards him, jaw working, levels him with a long look. When he eventually speaks, Soap can tell that he didn’t imagine the earlier flicker in his eyes.
    “It’s Ghost. He’s been captured.”

     
    After a mission gone sideways, Ghost isn't the only one who has to deal with the aftermath and everything that comes with it.

    Summary

    A big, broad-shouldered man came through the door, the look of a long-haul trucker hanging around him like a ratty coat. He was wearing old oil-stained jeans and a frayed flannel shirt thrown over a white t-shirt, his scuffed boots peeling up at the toes with age.

    He had the air of a man who’d reached the end of his rope. He had a battered wide-brimmed hat pulled low to cover his long, frazzled hair, half of which was scraped back into a loose tail. He had dark hair and dark skin and dark eyes that were framed by the deep-set bruises Arthur only ever saw on long-haulers and cattlemen, the marks of too many nights at the wheel or in the saddle, the normal rhythms of life stretched out and pulling at the seams. 

    The feller was handsome. Arthur noticed that as an afterthought, his breath catching in his chest. Under the bruises and the loose strands of hair, the feller was handsome. His eyes were bright and keen. 

    “Uh,” said Arthur, caught flat-footed by the unanticipated surge of attraction tightening his belly.  “Hi.” 

    The feller looked Arthur dead in the eye. “I need all of the caramel sauce that you have,” he said. 

    (or, a coffee shop au. yeah. i know.)
