Summary
She didn’t ask to be born like this, she didn’t ask to be born at all. She didn’t ask for her dad to be a demon, she didn’t ask for Celine to take her in, she didn’t ask for anything.
She never did.
Maybe that’s why she feels as though she’ll never succeed. Maybe that’s why Celine looks at her like she's a mistake. Maybe that’s why she's never gotten praise. Rumi’s a mistake. She knows she is. She’s accepted it.

Summary
"You don't love me?"
Steve's voice came out weak when he looked at Nancy. Did he hear her right? There was no way she had just said that to him. The words 'I don't love you' and 'bullshit' echoed through Steve's mind. Maybe he just misunderstood her. But judging from the annoyed and drunken look on her face she was dead serious. Ouch. He felt like he just got stabbed in the heart.
This fic is heavily inspired by HeckinaHandBasket, Raicho, pocketwatchangora, and NotEvenCloseToStraight for their awesome fanfics! This fic is my version/reimagining of Stranger Things S2 with an A/B/O AU.

Summary
When a one night stand with a sexy stranger turns sour, Bitty runs his mouth and sets a challenge. But what he's asking for is less than what Jack wants to give him.
In the end, it might just be exactly what they both need.
To think a few blissful seconds ago Bitty’d been working up the nerve to ask for Jack’s number.
Now, with Jack dressing in the dark without a word of explanation, Bitty choked on the disappointment that tasted suspiciously like the jagerbombs Holster had forced him to drink and let it leak out into these next words he spoke:
“So it was bad for you too, hmm?”

Summary
He’s not usually a procrastinator, is the thing. He’s not sure what makes this different, why he doesn’t just tell Dex the truth and get it over with.
After all, he thinks that he’d want to know if his friend-with-benefits, sometimes-hatesex fuckbuddy had fallen stupid in love with him.

Summary
William Pointedexter doesn't know which is worse--that everyone kinda thinks he's a designationist conservative asshole or that every time Derek Nurse steps on the ice he totally looses control of his biology and wants to growl at every alpha and beta player even thinking about checking him. He finds it easier to just be seen as the conservative jerk that has an issue with being paired with an omega as his d-man partner. But then, fucking Nursey has to keep being smart, and annoying, and funny, and annoying!

Summary
After two and a half semesters at Samwell, Dex has gotten used to people handling their stress in weird ways. Bitty bakes up a storm, Lardo is constantly covered in what Dex really, really hopes is paint, Ransom turns into a curled-up ball of anxiety on the nearest flat surface. He gets it: people are just weird here.
That doesn’t mean he doesn’t choke on his Red Bull when Nursey sighs, “God, I’m so tense right now. I just really need to suck a dick, y’know?”
(Or: five times Dex and Nursey really don’t quite know what they’re doing, and one time they’ve really, really figured it out.)

Summary
“I’m looking at these numbers and I just can’t in good conscience recommend keeping the skating rink open. In fact, it would actually be preferable to demolish it. Its operating costs are high—far higher than any of your other facilities—and you’re not even breaking even on it. And your report concludes with a request for funds to refurbish it? Frankly, the land would be far more valuable to the city if it were to sell it to a developer. I can put you in touch with—”
“Over my dead body,” Eric interrupts.
“Excuse me?”
“You heard me. You can’t sell my rink.”
Eric Bittle is the director of the City of Samwell's Parks and Recreation department. He loves everything about his job, including overseeing the city's municipal ice rink, where generations of kids have learned to skate. Unfortunately, a citywide budget crisis has put Eric's proposed rink renovations on hold, and out-of-town auditor Jack Zimmermann is insistent that the best course of action would be to shut it down entirely. Too bad Eric isn't willing to give up his rink without a fight. He's got a plan. And he may just melt the heart of Samwell's iciest auditor along the way.

Summary
Jack’s sprawled on the living-room couch on a Friday after morning skate, watching tape of the Tampa defence, when it happens. Bitty’s phone rings, and out in the kitchen, Bitty’s voice says cheerfully, “Hey, Mama!” Jack listens with only half an ear.
Then the quality of the silence from the kitchen changes, somehow, and Jack pauses the playback, sits up, and turns to look.
Bitty’s clutching the phone to his ear with one hand, and clutching the edge of the kitchen island with the other. His face is pale and his eyes are huge and he looks about ten seconds away from bursting into tears.- Language:

Summary
Derek walked right into a cardboard cutout of a middle-aged man with skin almost as pale as Will but with dark brown hair and a beard to match. It almost toppled over with Derek following behind, but he caught himself and the cutout with minimal flailing. “Shit,” he cursed under his breath.
“Nursey?”
He was not prepared for the sight in front of him once he spun around.
First, Derek had to get up at seven in the morning, then he drove for seven hours, with half an hour breaks every three hours. He was tired, he was hungry, and now this.
Or: the one in which Derek Nurse drives up to Maine to visit Dex, Dex turns out to be full of surprises, and Chowder is in the prime spot to watch his best friends pine for each other in real time.

Summary
Jack breathed. Once, twice.
You can do it. You just have to tell George about you and Bittle, and you'll feel so much better.
George beat him to it, though.“Eric Bittle, your old teammate. I want him with the Falcs, the minute he graduates.”
Well, now he couldn’t talk, could he.
