Summary
“All Jotaro’s other targets are dead. Except for you.” Malika cocked her head, considering Kakyoin. “After he came back the last time and he was…alone in there, I…grew him flowers, a few times. I wasn’t supposed to. But he was in the dark for so long. I thought he wouldn’t mind losing a little bit of blood as long as it reminded him there was still something left.”
“What do you mean,” Kakyoin said slowly, “‘in the dark’?”
Malika didn’t answer. White flowers unfurled from her forearm, gentle trickles of blood rising up the thin stems. She watched them thoughtfully.
White poppy; consolation.
She plucked a poppy out of her arm and held it carefully between two fingers. “You have to get him out,” she said. “You have to.”AU where Jotaro is the evil brainwashed assassin sent to kill Kakyoin, who makes life very complicated for Dio by being better at counterpossession than he is.

Summary
“I am going to strangle you. Jesus Christ.”
“Come on.” Ronan leans across the gearshift, now, knocks his elbow against Gansey’s arm. “Don’t you ever just want to love being alive, man?”
“You,” Gansey says, slightly calmer, but still with the air of a witness damning a defendant, “are a terrible influence.”
“God,” Ronan says happily, “I hope so.”
-
Or, a fic about how Ronan saved Gansey long before Gansey ever needed to save him.

Summary
Edward startles like she’d just slapped him. “Babs, It’s not like that, I just – you know, my prospects aren’t – exactly – I’m not trying to imply – “ A fragment of hysterical laughter, “You aren’t saying you think that I – like you or something, that’s ridiculous, I know you – you don’t – I would never ask that of – “
“Hush, Eddie,” Barbara says, and possessed by the spirit of comeuppance she leans forward and presses her mouth to the warm brown skin of his temple.

Summary
hisoka did not look good. his makeup was smudged, revealing bruised skin under, a thin rivulet of blood was drying on the side of his face, coming from somewhere hidden by his messy hair. he was shaking so bad his teeth were chattering loud enough for gon to hear. he looked wild and unhinged in a way gon hadn't seen on him before, even in the hunter exam. he held his arms over his middle, pale wrists bent unnaturally, his knuckles swollen and bloody.
"c-can i use your shower?" his voice was rough, hoarse, coming out in a stutter through his chattering teeth. his left ear was torn and bleeding, gon could see now - where someone had torn his earring out.
he was too stunned to speak, moving out of his doorway. "hisoka, were you in a fight?"
//
gon knows that bad things happen in the world. but he'd always thought of hisoka as something that happened to others, not as someone the bad things would happen to.- Language:

Bookmarker's Notes
i am not particularly in the habit of wanting to think sympathetically about either hisoka or illumi like, ever.nevertheless this fic remains foundational i think. some of the best gon characterization that is out there & i'm deeply unwillingly charmed by this characterization of the clown. everybody say yay i love feeling miserable and complicated thank you okayantigone!

"He wants to lay all these little pieces of the world at Gon’s feet as if to say I’m sorry, I’m not sorry I left but I am sorry I left you, but look, look, don’t you ever think I forgot you, don’t you dare feel as if you were only a memory to me, look and see how i was thinking about you everywhere, all the time."
As he travels the world with Alluka, Killua gathers souvenirs. They're all for Gon, of course.

Summary
“You’re my favorite mask Joker,” Goro says. “No one compares to you. Not your stupid fucking thieves, or my stupid fucking father, or anyone. You’re my favorite person.”
For a moment, Ren just holds his stare. Stupidly, Goro feels embarrassed, and then embarrassed for feeling embarrassed, and angry he’s doing this at all, playing this stupid fucking game that Ren probably, probably already knows all about. But maybe this time Ren will finally fucking— “Hm,” they say, which could mean anything, but then they smile, small and sincere. “I like you a lot too, Akechi.”
Goro wants to scream.
///OR: Akechi has BPD. Akechi has an FP. Akechi wants to tell Ren his feelings. So he does. Again. And again. And - at this point, it's a matter of pride.

Summary
Maybe it was the lack of his shades, the lack of his stupid beat-up baseball cap, the lack of the permanent frown etched into his face every waking moment of the day, but you’d always be hit with some weird, intangible feeling in the center of your chest, the sudden realization that, when he was out cold like this, he looked small.
Young. Fragile, almost.
Human.

Summary
“Satoru?” The word rings, fuzzy in his ears as it whines like tinnitus, familiar and heart stopping.
‘I’m dead.’ He can’t even hear his own thoughts over the loudness of the world, staggering where he stands, eyes still fixated on the sky, on the sun. ‘I’m dead, I died, I felt my heart stop, this can’t be, it can’t-’
“Hey,” it comes again, a little more urgent than before, a little closer, another hammer to his ears and all the noise shrieking behind his eyes. He recoils hard enough to go stumbling as a hand reaches for him, covered in flesh rather than empty bone, tan and recognizable. Unbelievable.
There’s something wet trickling from his nose. Bile stings on the back of his tongue. The words dissolve into the rest of the white noise as he stares up at the blue of the sky, and tries to remember if he’d ever had a hallucination as bright as this.
‘I have to be dead,’ he thinks. Somehow, he isn’t.
Or: Gojo Satoru goes back in time. He makes a couple of changes for the better.
