Summary
It was a new paintbrush set when Will showed a sliver of disappointment after his paintbrushes broke, a box of pens when his only pen ran out of tint, a dozen coffees, and a dozen night outs. It was a dizzying pattern, one that spent Will a couple sleepless nights. In his mind weren't his art assignments due next week, or an essay due in five hours, not even what he wanted to eat. In the corners of a hushed room that is his loud mind, stands a question waiting to be answered.
Will, as everyone knows, that whenever he opens his wallet—flies come rushing out. To put it in layman terms, he is broke. Really, really broke. Even with two jobs, money he seldom receives from his mom and older brother, he doesn’t have financial freedom. The typical broke, art major.
But, at least his childhood best friend with unbelievably full pockets is always there for him.

Summary
“What do I have to do?” Mike asks, eyebrows furrowing as he looks down at Will.
Will looks around, “I don’t know,” he says, sarcasm evident in his tone, “Apologize to El? For being an asshole and not listening to anything she said?”
“I’m not thinking about her right now.”
Will, across the room from Mike.
It’s not on him that he loses every sense of self control.

Summary
He wipes a damp hand against his neck, ridden with sweat and humidity. It doesn’t help with anything. He ignores the sweat at his palms, the stickiness gathering in his legs, and the burns heating at the surface of his skin. No, Keith doesn’t mind that at all.
He minds the freckled face, brown splattered all across his cheeks like constellations spread in galaxies. The smile that shouts sunshine pulling at the corner of their lips, the lean body at the registrar—making conversation and pulling out change. And Keith keeps on minding until the line moves, the people in front of him filing out to different directions. Until he stands right before him, before the boy handing out smiles of sunlight like it was nothing. The boy with eyes that always manage to pull Keith in.
“Heya,” he says, the voice cutting right through Keith’s mind, “What can I get for you today?”
— What Keith would do to keep the one he loves safe, and he would do almost anything.

Summary
The moon above the horizon, its serenity entrancing stars from the kaleidoscopic galaxy closer and closer. There are no clouds to be seen like in broad daylight, and there are no birds that sing and sway in the usual peach-blue sky— just the somber sky that hums us lullabies, the peaceful sound of waves rushing into the still shore, gentle to the ears. Wind caught up in soft chocolate hair as the owner clutches on to another for dear life, eyes closed as if they’re about to face death itself— and they have never really been afraid of death, they yearned for it, unfortunately.
Dazai also yearns to get off this hot pink abomination that’s going faster than light. And to unclutch himself off of his beloved partner cause it seems embarrassing.
Or; The two go out on a joyride, hopefully no gay feelings ensue within Chuuya’s heart

Summary
A shitty day at work, sloppy assassinations, missions— everything within a mafia boss’s orders, all shitty. Extended hours, his hands feel cold and dead under the leather gloves, practically begging to have the leather gloves taken off and reaching out for the sun. Days like this at the mafia has the mafioso’s brilliant blue eyes darkened and pretty much dead, it isn’t a very pleasant sight to see, forces shudders and harsh shivers down his fellow co-workers backs. He doesn’t really know his face wears this expression, and everyone was too afraid to point it out, so he's left clueless.
Or: an unpleasant day at work leaves Chuuya oddly cold, luckily a stupidly warm fish is waiting at him at home. Cuddling and whispers of sappiness ensues.

Summary
It only took a moment before the physician smiled. “Well,” he said, with satisfaction. “That settles it. You are approximately nine weeks along, Your Highness.”
Nine weeks.
Without thinking, Will’s hand drifted down, resting against his lower abdomen. There was nothing there, not really. No visible change, no difference he could feel beneath his palm yet.
.........
or: As an Omega, Will knows what he was married for. It was merely to form a political alliance between their two kingdoms.
So when he finds himself pregnant, and Mike suddenly begins to care in ways he never did before, the reason seems obvious. It’s not love, it’s only the heir.And then, when he loses the baby, Will is certain he will lose everything else too.

Summary
r/DnD
u/MWpaladin commented on “Can’t tell the difference between sorcerers and…” posted by u/LionsandTigers7 on r/DnDu/MWpaladin: Are you an actual idiot? Sorcerers and wizards are hardly even comparable. It’s not ‘the same thing’ in the slightest. A sorcerer’s magic doesn’t even come from a book of spells, their powers are INNATE. Maybe go back to third fucking grade before you ever try and DM a campaign of your own. Jesus Christ. Another important differentiation to note is… [expand]
Or: a long, very long, retrospective of Mike’s reddit history.

Summary
“’Morning,” Mike grumbled, voice low from sleep.
“Noon,” Max corrected, as if she hadn’t only woken up thirty minutes before him.
“Wow,” he replied, squinting at the light. “Nobody thought to wake me?”
It happened casually after that, so casually it almost didn’t register at first. El laughed at something Lucas said, then turned toward Mike and leaned in, instinctively, easily, pressing a kiss to his lips like it was the most logical way to say good morning to him.
.........
or: Mike and Will have been together for a year and a half when El comes back. The problem is, El assumes she and Mike are still together. The bigger problem is that Mike doesn’t realize Will thinks he might choose her.
