Melancholy

Stiles thinks no one is listening, so he just... stops talking. It's just like that asshole Peter to refuse to take the hint.

He was the last person Namjoon expected to hear from - thought he was dreaming when he saw the email in his work inbox. It was short and simple, typical Hoseok. Just: We saw what happened. We’re so sorry. If you need get away for awhile, you’re always welcome to come stay with us - JH. He wonders now if Hoseok was surprised when he said yes. If Hoseok only extended the invitation because he didn’t think Namjoon would actually come. (Or: Namjoon chose a solo career and left Yoongi and Hoseok behind. Seven years later, after being outed by a Korean tabloid, he ends up on their couch in Queens, trying to face an uncertain future. And confront feelings that have persisted for nearly a decade.)

"Let go. Shhh . . ." a gentle purr escaped his throat. His finger caressed a nudge upon her knuckles. "Let go . . . for relief must soak your body. How you yearn to touch yourself . . . to feel . . ." Severus broke his stare with a slow blink, angling his palms in a failed attempt to cup her breasts. ". . . and feel good. Such a deprived little witch, aren't you?" "What was your sin, professor?" "Not so memorable as this, Darkling . . ." A star-crossed love between a melancholic, hypoesthesic witch and her Dark Arts professor.

Lan Wangji was not delusional. He knew Wei Ying was dead. The sharp stab of hope had spread out and dulled. But there was something firmer than hope, firmer also than fantasy, which he would not leave behind. Even if Wei Ying was gone and would never come back, nothing would take his place in Lan Wangji’s heart. He thought about that occasionally, when he glimpsed the moon through stark branches on a forest trail, or when he felt drowsy and distant in the seat of honor at banquets. It was simple. He would always love Wei Ying. - Over 16 years, Lan Wangji’s faith is rewarded as rumors solidify: The Yiling Patriarch survived Nightless City and became a powerful sect leader in a distant land. Mirthless, jaded, aloof: this stranger sounds nothing like the Wei Wuxian whom Lan Wangji loves. But as political backstabbing and a monstrous magic threaten to destroy the cultivation world, Wei Wuxian will return one last time.

He thinks maybe he should be unsettled by the impact she’s had on him. Thinks maybe it should chafe. That maybe it should remind him of HYDRA and having his choices, his will, ripped away from him. It doesn’t. She doesn’t. It, she, the memory of her, feels like choice.

It's a simple thing really, driving and working to forget every horrible thing he's trying to leave in his rearview mirror, but when Tubbo picks up a hitchhiker that's hell-bent on remembering, he maybe stops driving so fast, stops trying to forget, maybe tries to figure out where he's going.--It's about learning how to let go.It's being okay with saying goodbye.

"How about this then, Getou." Suguru's intuition tells him to run while he can. His butt stays planted. "You can come to my practices to give me some friendly advice about my routine, and in exchange, I'll forget about pressing charges for your assault." He beams. "Good deal, right?" Suguru wants to slap him across the face. "What? You're the one who put your lips on my neck." "After you punched my arm like a truck. Come on, dude. Do you really want to ruin your hockey career right now? I don't think the sports teams in jail are very good." "You're a piece of shit," Suguru seethes. Crystal blue eyes crinkle. "And you've got seven different sticks up your ass, but who's counting?" Suguru is just a guy trying to recover from unhealed wounds of his past. Satoru is the star of their university figure skating team, embodying everything Suguru wishes he had. So when an unexpected injury brings the hockey team's captain to this supernova of a man, everything he thought he knew about his principles goes ass up. Alternatively, bratty figure skater Gojo fucks around and finds out ft. college angst and sex in places that aren’t very sanitary.

On the 9th day of November XXXX, Kim Seokjin of Bangtan Sonyeondan died. The day he died at the hospital, he's given a choice.

Some things were just never meant to be.

The eggs tasted even better than they looked—fluffy and buttery with just the right amount of salt. Objectively, they were much better than any of the meals he had over the past five years. So why did eating them fill him with revulsion? “Finney, what’s wrong?” A tear trickled down his cheek, followed by several more. “I—” He swallowed. His shoulders trembled, and he sniffled. Unable to endure the alarmed concern in his father and sister’s eyes, he focused on the plate in front of him. “I shouldn’t be here.” And then that ugly, beautiful truth ripped through his skin like a shirt several sizes too small: “I should be with Al. I want to be with Al.” **** After five years of captivity, Finney Blake is finally reunited with his family.
