    Summary

    After dropping out of his PhD program, Hanamaki returns to Sendai and crashes at Matsukawa's place while he figures out what to do with the rest of his life. Instead of throwing him the pity party he wanted, Matsukawa encourages him to strive for more—both in his career and in his relationships.

    It's super cringe and Hanamaki will have none of it.

    Summary

    “When’s the last time someone else stitched you up?” Bucky asked. He was still speaking in that breathy, low tone, like he was afraid something might shatter if he raised his voice.

    “I don’t know,” admitted Sam. “Years, probably.”

    His answer seemed to physically wound Bucky. For a moment, Sam was worried he might cry. Instead, he just lifted his left hand; touched a single finger to the side of the wound. Sam shivered from the cold touch of the metal.

    “Is there anything else I can do?” Bucky said, watching the way Sam’s ribcage rose and fell with each breath. The question, for some reason, made Sam want to slam his head against a wall. He’d heard it often, but in all the wrong places. Never when he needed it. And never like this.

    *

    Sam and Bucky have this thing between them, and it keeps getting stronger, and something is bound to break. If only either of them could bring themselves to acknowledge it.
    OR - yearning, the fic.

    Summary

    This was meant to be one maybe 4k word short story, and now... Here we are.

    Empire of Light is an exploration of In-ho's character and the way modern art and philosophy play a role in the visual language of the show and overarching themes. Through the final part of that, and the sequel, I explore what In-ho and Gi-hun represent to each other in more depth, and how that dynamic can change as they get to know each other as people.

    Unexpected Answer is a more traditional narrative than Empire of Light, and is much less dense, but it is a direct continuation that needs the context of the former.

    Completed before the release of S03, but I feel as if S03 retroactively makes it land harder.

    Summary

    Haymitch meets Effie's teary eyes and knows she is hoping for his name. He might be offended if the alternative wasn't Peeta returning to the arena. Even with the planned rescue, the risks are too high.

    Effie's hand hesitates between the two slips of paper. She almost takes one, then grabs the other and unfolds it. Her voice cracks as she says, "The male tribute from District Twelve is Peeta Mellark."

    And Haymitch breathes relief because for once, the odds are in his favor. He steps forward before Peeta can move. "I volunteer."

    Summary

    to be alive means to live; to have life and function biologically as an organism. to live can also refer to experiencing life actively, engaging in meaningful activities, or existing in a particular way or condition.

    so, in essence, to live is to be recognised.

    it’s to have memories and experiences of you built in other people’s mind. it’s to be a person to someone else, anyone else. whether that be your parents, your dog, your neighbour. the fact that you exist in someone’s mind as something– anything– is enough to put you in the category of living.

    ji-yeong didn’t have any of that.

    Summary

    Soap always knew he harbored more than just intense platonic feelings for his Lieutenant, Ghost. Something told him from the very moment the man introduced himself -cold, dangerous, and professional- that Ghost would be the one to ruin his life.

    One thing he didn't really expect, though, is to find out just how painfully easy it is to love Ghost. And how painfully starved Soap became for his touch.

    -

    or, healthy soapghost are disgustingly in love and extremely touch-starved

    Summary

    The mission brief was simple, the words all familiar and put in an order that almost made Ghost bored. All goes well and he doesn't think twice about the sequence of events.
    Except he wakes up to do it again. And again. And again. And he can't help but overthink his time with the man next to him.

    Summary

    "Kids?" Soap asks, curving his fingers into a silent okay to Ghost without thinking. "Plural?"

    "Yes. A boy and a girl. Little Joseph was born a couple of months ago, according to the records."

    "Oh," is all Soap says because oh. He has a nephew. A little baby nephew. And then, because that is apparently not enough of a revelation, the doctor says:

    "You are listed as their legal guardian, Mr. MacTavish. We need you to pick them up."

    “Why’re you asking?” Hosea asks as he steps closer, “Is there something there?”

    “I think-” Arthur sighs, looking down to Hosea, “I think I saw-” he doesn’t get to finish, something hard hitting his side, knocking the breath and balance out of him.

    Summary

    “Ellie?,” he called again, willing his mind to calm down, “it’s me, c’mon.” A stretch of silence. “Open the door, please, Ellie.” He tried the door handle again, twisting slowly and pushing to see if it’d move — and it did, slightly, and Joel realized she must’ve been sitting against it. “C’mon, kiddo,” he said softly, almost paternally. “Let me in.”

    She hiccupped then. “I don’t—,” her voice cut out as crying ensued and Joel felt his heart clench painfully at it. “I just wanted to—“

    Joel pushed the door again and it gave in. He peered inside, trying to find Ellie, before looking down to see her cornered and crying behind the door with an arm outstretched, a stained gauze dressing around it and a first-aid kit on her lap. When she saw him, she started crying harder, heavy tears rolling down her cheeks as she outstretched a hand to him, hiccupping hard enough for her shoulders to shake.

    Summary

    Arthur knows he's dying, can feel the unstoppable pull of it, feels the spirit appear behind him to take him along. And yet, he finds he does not want to die. There is so much that went wrong, so much he regrets and he wishes, with all his being, he could change it. Could at least ensure those that managed to get away really make it out alive.

    A second chance, he asks, begs, really. Just give me the chance to save them.

    The being behind him pauses and Arthur can't look away from the moment he's frozen in, staring at the dark mountainside, aching to see the sun rise just one more time.

    One chance, the spirit seems to whisper, voice satin soft. Make the most of it.
