    Summary

    This is a series of interconnected fics set in a post-canon universe where Robert and Flambae are easing their way slowly—and a little awkwardly—into an actual relationship.

    The fics are in chronological order, not necessarily in publishing order, but you can read them either way! At some point maybe I'll string all of them together with some transitional scenes and make an actual full-length fic, but for now they're just shortfics!

    Summary

    Steve's first impression of the future is that it is wrong. Everything is in the wrong place, it smells different, the roads are different, his usual haunts are no longer there, the music is different, there are too many cars, too many people, the buildings are too tall, the city is too big— it's all wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong.

    Summary

    “Tell me your name.” Carlisle’s voice is barely more than a whisper; his lips grace the shell of the man’s ear.

    “Swan.” The man clears his throat. Carlisle can feel every vibration of the action from the tips of his fingers, dug into the man’s sides, to the ache in his throat. “Charlie Swan.”

    Summary

    Carlisle lingered close, as still as a stone. For a moment, Charlie wondered if all the air had been sucked out of the room. There was some new look in the Doctor's eye, like… He wanted something from him.

    Charlie Swan had given much thought to how he would die, but he never suspected it would be because of love.
    When the rich and charming Dr. Cullen moves into Forks, it feels like Charlie can't stop running into him. Over cases and coffee, they get to know each other better... And Charlie finds it more and more difficult to suppress unprofessional thoughts. Meanwhile, Carlisle's discovery of his very first Singer puts a strain on the Cullens settling into Forks.

    Summary

    A unplanned road trip strands Robert and Chad in the desert after the Firebird breaks down miles from anywhere. With night closing in Robert begins to realize Chad isn't afraid of being stranded.
    ───☄─·✵·─☄───

    Nyctophobia — fear of the dark. Of spaces where nothing can be seen and every sound feels wrong. Fear sharp enough to make the fire spark, and the lingering dread of accidentally hurting someone just trying to get close.
    ───☄─·✵·─☄───

    The first sign was the sound.

    A hitch in the V8's rumble. Small, barely there. Robert felt it through the bench seat before he heard it, a vibration that didn't match the road. The engine caught briefly and Chad checked the dash and nothing flagged, the gauges holding steady.

    It came through the whole car, a tremor that started under the hood and traveled backward through the frame, rattling the rearview mirror and buzzing through the bench seat into Robert's spine. The engine note dropped and caught and dropped again, and the RPM needle twitched with it.

    The Firebird shuddered harder and the engine coughed, flat and mechanical, and the speedometer began to slide, eighty down to seventy-five down to seventy.
