Summary
The room was dim, the overhead lights off, only a small lamp glowing softly near the bed. Max stopped just inside the doorway.
The room smelt of bitter citrus peels, and the tang of salt. Max's nose crinkles at the scent of distress wafting off of the small figure on the bed.
Charles lay curled slightly on his side, knees drawn in, one arm tucked close to his chest. Too thin. Too still. There was a faint crease between his brows even in sleep, like his body didn’t know how to fully let go anymore. His hair looked limp, his eyes sunken. There were bruises visible on his skin, purple and yellow and green.
His other arm is curled protectively around his abdomen.

Summary
What was the importance of a soulmate, to someone without a soul? If Dean swore this version of Sam was not his brother, despite all the evidence, then why continue to act like he was?
“You don’t have to protect me anymore.” Sam said, matter of fact.
Broad shoulders went still, Dean’s back rigid and stiff. “Yes I do.”
__
Tucked away in the bathroom that morning, Sam resolved he still couldn’t fully recognize himself. He practiced a smile in the mirror, squinted his eyes and scrunched his nose, the way he naturally used to.
With everything stripped away, no sense of self, Sam realized that there was nothing else left inside.
__
TLDR; Sam sees the world a little differently without a soul.

Summary
Violet Mitchell, better known as Viper, was abandoned at 15 by her father after her mother died. Her best friend and later boyfriend, Bradley Bradshaw, was left to pick up the pieces.
But after they graduate from high school, she doesn't want to stay in San Diego. The Navy life wasn't really meant for her, it seemed.
She left one night, left a note for Bradley because she felt it would be easier that way. Viper was never good with emotions like that. She ran to Texas, of all places. Went to school there, majored in Business Analytics, like her father never wanted. But hey, fuck him.
Now, Viper, now better known as Violet Mitchell, met what seemed to be the man of her dreams, Jake Seresin, who also happened to be a Navy pilot. I guess you couldn't leave the lifestyle completely behind.
What happens when her now-boyfriend gets a letter to be recruited to a top team of fliers called Top Gun, and it's back in San Diego? Will she see everyone from her past? How will she deal?

Summary
“In shadows deep, I evaporate,
No sound, no light, no voice.
A void engulfs, where hope once thrived,
In darkness lost, my wax deprived.”“No footsteps echo, no laughter near,
Silent tears cascade, unseen, unclear.
Embraced by sorrow's chilling embrace,
I dissipate, erased without a trace.”“I am nothing, a ghostly wisp of smoke,
Engulfed in darkness, suffocated by air.
The weight of emptiness, a heavy shroud,
Engulfs my essence, in silence I'm vowed.”“Lost in this desolate, despondent plight,
Where embers have faded; swallowed by night.
No solace found, no respite in sight,
I'm consumed by darkness, eternally in plight.”“Yet amidst the gloom ,remains a single flame,
A whisper of a dream, defying the chains.
For even in darkness, a glimmer may ignite,
A spark of resilience, a beacon of light.”“I may fade, evaporate away,
I'll seek the embers of the dawn.”“For in the shadows, I'll rise again,
A candle, burning bright, forever and beyond.” -

Hoseok growled. Suga flinched in surprise, and his omega demanded to leave and make a nest as soon as possible. Jung's strange actions truly scared him; who knew he would react like that out of the blue?
In a frightened daze, under the astonished gazes, Yoongi stood up, muttering something quietly, and then practically ran out of the room.
"Seriously, Hoseok, what's wrong with you?" Seokjin said to him. Apparently, everyone had heard his reaction.
"Did you just growl at him?"

Do you know the meaning of her name?”
“No.” Anakin rasped.
“It means ‘Confess to Die’. Creatures come here to repent, or record, and then they end. However, that looks.”
