    Summary

    Steve's feet stumbled more than walked, but Hopper didn't care. He half-carried, half-dragged the kid toward the emergency room doors, his jaw clenched so tight it ached. Every step felt like it took too long.

    As the two of them started to slowly stumble to the front of the ER, Hopper took a brief moment to think about it. Took a moment to think how despite everything—despite barely knowing the kid, despite all his preconceptions and assumptions, despite the amount of times Steve had purposefully acted like a smart-ass punk just to piss him off—Hopper had realized something tonight:

    Steve Harrington was a good kid.

    Summary

    Eddie made a strangled disbelieving noise, expression flickering. “You are not apologizing to me right now, for like, feeling a normal way about stuff. I can’t believe you.”

    Steve pushed a shaking hand through his hair. His heart rate no longer in his ears meant he felt he could at least think a little more clearly. “Maybe it was the heat. Doesn’t always have to be something messed up, right?”

    Eddie gave him a placating nod. “Sure, heat exhaustion is a helluva thing.”

    It had been happening a lot recently. The… forgetting. Zonking out. Whatever. He was pretty sure he was just extra exhausted, it had been a few weeks since everything but it might have just been the adrenaline or something finally wearing off. Sometimes it was like he just forgot someone was speaking, or couldn’t remember for a moment what they’d been talking about. Like blinking out of a fog maybe.

    It does not get better, in fact, it actually continues to get worse.

    Summary

    “Sirius,” Remus said.

    That was the only warning.

    He said it softly, like a statement, almost casually– so casually that Sirius turned expecting him to ask something about what they were having for dinner, or telling him he wanted honey in his tea, or complain about how off brand sports-drink didn’t taste as good as Gatorade.

    Instead, Remus’ knees were already buckling. His arm was sliding off of the granite corner of the countertop, and his shoulder was colliding with the barstool to his right, and his body was thudding against the hardwood, and the only warning Sirius got was his name. That was it.

    He was moving before he even realized what was happening.

    Summary

    There were only so many times someone could hit you in the head before you got lasting problems. Steve found that the number was about three. 

    But now Robin and the kids insist he should look after himself, and with Eddie making it his mission to make sure he does, Steve isn't sure he's in a place to argue.

    Maybe being loved isn't so bad.

    Summary

    At some point, Eddie’s hand had made its way to Steve’s bad knee, massaging it gently in soothing circles. It was like magic, the way the deep ached subsided just enough for Steve’s posture to slump. He felt like putty under Eddie’s fingertips. Tension melted away from him as Eddie continued his work over his kneecap to the beginning of his thigh. He couldn’t help but close his eyes and let out a contented sigh.

    “Do you want me to stop?” Eddie asked quietly.

    “Huh?”

    “Steve,” Eddie whispered. “Do you want me to stop?”

    Summary

    Time became a foreign concept, but he was aware of it passing, could see it in the way the concerned faces looming over him multiplied, hands of different sizes tapped insistently against his face, and the distance the clouds had moved. It was a lazy sort of existence, and he didn’t feel any strong urge to shake himself out of it.

    Damage to automail isn't as harmless as it appears to be.

    Summary

    The corner of Henry’s mouth. It’s disappeared now, covered by the oxygen mask fixed securely around his head, but if Alex concentrates hard enough, he can see it sprawled out in front of him. Every ridge, every bend and edge and turn of it.

    He knows Henry’s heart. And that’ll be enough.

    (or: the one where henry gets shot and alex is a goddamn mess.)

    Summary

    Thomas’s body never quite remembers to get out of fight-or-flight; his pulse is hammering away in his throat and he’s sweaty all over when he finally gets his eyes open. His cheeks are wet. He doesn’t remember what he dreamed of, but he can guess well enough at what it was about.

    “Tommy,” Newt murmurs from his side of the room, and Thomas feels his entire miserable body relax.

    In which Thomas helps make the Safe Haven into a home, tries not to think too hard about That Time Newt Almost Died, and learns to feel his feelings.

    Summary

    Newt was clearly doing all he could to stifle the sounds slipping from his mouth. Occasionally, his slim fingers worked to rub out the agony in his shattered leg, but that only brought a renewed wave of muffled pain-filled sounds.

    “But… you were trying to rub it… would massage help?”

    “Don't rightly know,” Newt mumbled. “Can't bring myself to press where it bloody hurts so badly.”

    “Can I try?” Thomas asked.

    Summary

    "Is it often like this?"

    Hawkeye's voice was so soft, Ed almost didn't hear it through the static clouding his head. He took a moment to breathe.

    "Not often", he finally said. "This storm's a bad one, but usually I could just take it easy for the day. Get some rest. It passes. Just—"

    He cut himself off with a sigh.

    "Just ...?", Hawkeye prompted after a moment when he didn't continue.

    Edward grimaced. "Well, the shitheads who have it out for me rudely don't give a fuck if I'm having a bad day or not. Really we should make them sign up on a schedule. Attempted murder on fair days only, please."

    --

    Edward knows not to push himself too much when the rain makes his scars ache and the strain of the automail on his body unbearable. Really, he does. It's just ... sometimes he's not given a choice.
