Summary
For the rest of her shift, Trinity turned those words over in her mind. The way Garcia’s voice held her name, direct and unprecious. Like she was important, like she was crucial. That voice, those words, glued her feet to the spot where she stood, and it was a labor to get them to move throughout the rest of her shift. She worked on a food poisoning case, dislocations of both the shoulder and elbow, and a head contusion. All she thought about all day was Garcia.
At the end of the day, she was packing up her bag, waiting for Whitaker to wrap up his debriefing with Dr. Robby, when she heard the voice that had been haunting her for the past twelve hours.
“Santos.”
She would follow her anywhere, as long as she was welcome to.

Summary
Galinda needs to be more passionate about things that matter. For example, one of Elphaba’s eyelashes falling onto her cheekbone does not matter. Elphaba hasn’t even noticed it, so Galinda shouldn’t care. She looks down at her empty notebook. Picks up a pen.
She really does care about that eyelash, though, she needs to swipe it off of Elphaba’s face and set it on the desk, or put it in her pocket or her mouth or something. Maybe smell it. Galinda wonders if Elphaba’s eyelashes smell like the rest of her, like old books and intrigue.
Elphaba turns to look at Galinda, and oh, shit.

“You’re in love with her.”

Summary
Constance. God, she misses Constance.
Her cheeks heat up thinking about the other girl, just like they always used to. She remembers high school, slipping her rough, pencil-calloused hands into the soft, saccharine, safe-havens that were Constance’s. It always made her blush, for some reason. Probably the sensitive nerve endings in her fingers. She was always cold and Constance was warm. Yeah, that was it.
They haven’t spoken in years, three to be exact. And even before that, it was stilted bi-yearly updates at most. They haven’t been innocent high-school blushy besties for a while. Ocean’s hoping to change that this time around. It has nothing to do with the fact that she’s really lonely in her small-ass apartment, or that she’s failing at living up to the title of “most successful girl in town,”or the fact that she’s been searching for a friend to make her feel like Constance did, and she can’t. Nobody has ever lived up to Constance.
Whatever. She’s excited.
Ocean and Constance are trapped in the same city during the holidays and forced to reconcile with each other after years of not speaking.

Fandoms: Interview with the Vampire (TV 2022)

Summary
"Happy birthday!" Daniel croons, his grin hooking his mouth wide, eyes bright and glowing with pleasure between dark eyelashes.
He holds out a small packet, haphazardly wrapped in colourful paper; a hint of pink dusts his cheeks, his heartbeat quickened with excitement and nerves; he smells sweet with it.
Slowly, Armand takes the packet from him; it's light, and when he turns it over in his hands, it emits a quiet, gentle rattle.
"Okay, birthday tutorial: at this point, we usually say 'thank you'."
Or: Daniel Molloy and the many birthdays of the vampire Armand, across decades.

Summary
“Are you jerking off in there?” Santos calls from the living room. “No judgement if you are - explore your budding body all you like, bud, but could you keep it down? Mommy’s trying to watch her shows.”
“No,” Dennis calls back sulkily, lowering his hands from his face, scowling at his bed. Nothing wrong with the bed - just what is laid out on top of it.
‘What’ being his very limited, definitely not date-friendly wardrobe.
OR:
Dennis and Michael go on a proper date. Dennis struggles with family, his past and medical records. Michael struggles to understand and with a connection of his own.

Summary
As Robby lifts his shirt up, Dennis is overcome with the need to bury his face in his armpit until he passes out. The gold chain with its Star of David that he always wears rests just below his collar. As Robby strips off, Dennis allows himself a longing look.
Yeah, Dennis admits to himself, he’s down pretty bad.
He’s certain that the fishing trips his brothers took with their dad didn’t have this additional complication – that of the man taking them being so hot they’d want to cry. Trinity’s comment, ‘daddy wants to take you to the woodshed,’ bounces around in Dennis’s head.
-Robby takes Dennis out on a fishing trip. Neither of them expected it to end this way.

Summary
" Guillermo met his eyes across the courtyard, and for a moment the human was grave and resolute as a warrior in battle, resigned to his fate yet defiant to its circumstances. For a moment Nandor imagined this meeting as the start of a war rather than a courtship, and for that moment he felt as if he'd found his footing again.
But then the human had done something outrageous.
Then the human had smiled. "
In the end, when all was said and done, the marriage of Nandor the Relentless and Guillermo de la Cruz would be remembered as a pivotal and defining moment in the history of human and vampiric society alike.
In the beginning, however, it was mostly just a mess.
