    Summary

    Eddie thinks he’ll really like that. It’ll feel good, to lean back in the seat and feel the sun on his face unshielded by the headrests blocking the view in front of him. It’ll just be him, and the road, and—
    And there will be someone with him. He’s sure that there will be someone right there next to him. Someone who doesn’t fuss. Someone who isn’t worried. Someone who likes the same music as he does and doesn’t care where the car goes at all. Eddie doesn’t know who it will be yet, because he’s still little. But it’ll be someone who likes him a lot.

    eight-year-old eddie diaz fantasizes about the freedom of the open road; the fantasy follows him all the way to 2025. or: an eddie character study

    Summary

    Amidst the vibrant chaos of the Los Angeles Pride Parade, an easy shift turns into a life-altering rescue that forces Eddie Diaz to confront the iron pillars of his past. Surrounded by a sea of colour and an unexpected reunion, Eddie finally faces the truths he’s spent a lifetime outrunning—leading to a realisation that will change everything.

    ~~~~

    Aka it’s exactly what the title makes it sound like. Eddie grows conflicted and distracted on calls, thinking back to past events of his life, and finally gains the will to move past them and accept who he is.

    Summary

    Falling for Ronan had felt like going to speak at the same time as someone else after a long silence, two people bumbling over their words to say, no, sorry, go ahead before one of them says what they were going to say.

    The problem, when it came down to it, was that the longer he waited for Ronan to actually do something about how he felt, the more Adam wanted him to.

    Summary

    He only realizes he’s doing it when it’s too late to stop.

    He’s standing in the drink aisle of the grocery store, checking the expiration dates on the cans of Coke, mentally cross-checking them with Boston’s away game schedule, and the reality hits him like someone shook one of those cans and popped it open. A snap. A fizz. A mess.

    Shane is making space for Ilya.

    Summary

    Shane’s immediate reaction is to say that he doesn't know when it started. He doesn’t know who his soulmate is. This is what he’s been telling himself for years, because if he stops for more than a second to think about how long he's been collecting little pieces of Ilya Rozanov, he thinks he'll spiral out of control.

    He'll hit the deck like a firecracker dropped unceremoniously onto the sidewalk, burning wildly and spiralling haphazardly, until he's fizzled out with nothing left to show for himself but smoke, ashes, and the knowledge that his soul is bound to Rozanov's.

    or:

    shane hollander spends twenty-five years not thinking about his soulmate. the drawer in his apartment filled with cigarettes, toothpaste, and awful t-shirts says elsewise.

    Summary

    Ilya recalls his mother in fragments: her voice, gentle in his ear; her curls, warming his cheeks as she wrapped him in an embrace; the way her eyes crinkled, as she brushed his hair back and said, “You are getting so tall now, Ilyusha. What am I going to do about my very tall bear?”

    Ilya Rozanov has never belonged to anyone but himself. An Ilya character study, tracing canon events.

    Summary

    “Lily,” Hayden says automatically. “You know about Lily?”

    Something flickers across Rozanov’s face. His jaw twitches. “Yes, I know about Lily.” He raises his eyebrows.

    Hayden feels like a complete asshole, all of a sudden. There’s just been too much going on to even think about Shane’s mystery girlfriend. “Shit, I should probably, like, call her, or something? I don’t know this girl at all, but Shane’s been obsessed with her for years. If she was watching the game, she would have seen him get hurt.”

    “You don’t need to call her,” Rozanov says, and when Hayden glances at him, he still looks fucking miserable but now he’s rolling his eyes, a much more familiar expression of disdain on his face. “She’s sitting right here.”

    Summary

    Diminutive forms are usually emotionally colored and used in friendly and intimate communication. It's generally not appropriate for a foreigner to use these forms when travelling in Russia. If you are close friends, it may be ok.

    When Shane can't sleep, he goes down Wikipedia rabbit holes.

    Summary

    Wyatt was not, like, nosy. For sure, he was interested. He was curious. He engaged with people, obviously, because most people were interesting and engaging and had cool thoughts and said neat stuff if you asked.

    So, no. Wyatt wasn’t nosy, but he wasn’t stupid, either.

    Summary

    He thinks about the list more and more.

    He wants a new dryer, some new clothes, for Christopher to think he’s cool again.

    He wants to pay the truck off, to fly his sisters out for a visit. He wants –

    He wants to be happy. He wants a partner, he wants to be seen, he wants to feel like he has someone who can read his mind and knows his next move before he’s even decided to make it. He wants someone who loves Christopher as much as he does and doesn’t mind that Eddie’s a little screwed up, who doesn’t see him as a problem to be solved. He wants to be loved because, not despite.

    He wants, wants, wants.

    Summary

    Missing Chris is less of an emotion these days and more of a physical entity. He’s sure everyone can see that he’s slowly hollowing himself out, that he can’t do much of anything else.

    But when Jee laughs at him trying to get his tongue to touch his nose, and Mara loops one of her arms through his to keep him from tossing the rest of his cup in the garbage, Eddie feels solid again.

    Maybe he likes yellow birthday cake ice cream after all.

     

    (or, gerrard messes with the team's schedules and eddie 'i just drove my son to flee the state' diaz is the only option to watch mara and jee-yun after school on tuesdays, which, shouldn't be a problem at all, right?)

    Summary

    The rest of the world had faded away. There was just this: Ronan’s arms strong and sure holding him, Ronan’s smell of gasoline and sweat, Ronan’s body heat warming Adam up like a fire, Ronan’s voice whispering his name like a prayer. It was Ronan, just Ronan, and Adam never wanted to move away.

    Summary

    A love song. Who the hell was listening to such whimsy, amongst the murderers and the thugs of the Barrel?
    (You are, and you’re the cruelest of them all.)
    Kaz scowled into the darkness of the room. It’s not like he had much choice, unless he opened the window and shot the singer.

    ---

    Most sensible people avoid the Barrel during major celebrations, out of a healthy sense of self-preservation and fondness for their limbs and wallets. Kaz, on the other hand, does not have the luxury of avoiding everyone else's good cheer. What he does have is a useless gang full of teenage idiots, an irritatingly persistent three-legged dog, a few memories he'd rather forget, and a time limit.
