Summary
Are we living a life that is safe from harm? Of course not. We never are. But that is not the right question. The question is: are we living a life that is worth the harm?
Kaneki Ken loves medicine.
He loves his father's old textbooks. He loves the colorful anatomy diagrams. He loves the rhythm of scientific articles, the shape of words like 'fossa' and 'muscular dystrophy'. The research projects/work shifts/studying/crying don't leave time for Kafka, but those books were for creepy little orphans, anyway. Which he isn't anymore, because he's not a kid anymore, because soon, he'll never be that kid again.
The world is hurt or be hurt. It is better to be hurt than to hurt others. But to be a doctor is to heal hurts without hurting yourself. To be a doctor is to be free.
Kaneki Ken is growing up. Kaneki Ken is moving on. Kaneki Ken will become a doctor or die trying, because hope is a thing with teeth and he'd bite through his tongue before going hungry ever again. And god help anyone who gets in his way.
aka: an au in which kaneki ken is premed instead of a lit major, with mixed but (ultimately) uplifting results
cw: suicidal ideation.

Summary
It's no secret demigods don't exactly have easy lives. Luckily, their stories are ongoing and some surprising people are there to help them through it. And, somehow, while nothing ever gets fully resolved, they always end up in the right direction. It's like they always say: where there's a will, there's a way.
Or
Behold: some silly fics that have some not-so-silly undertones. Or is it vice versa? I'll let you decide.

He can be this person, if that’s who Rozanov wants, because all Shane’s ever wanted to be is good.
That’s really all he’s ever wanted to be. Good.

Summary
Six months ago, Shane’s intimate conversation and break-up with Rose Landry was recorded and leaked. In those six months, his life had completely upended and everything had changed, for better or for worse. Except for Ilya. He still has Ilya, and he’s beginning to understand that he always will.
It’s 2018. Shane Hollander has to figure out his new life, in a new city, on a new team, while being out to the world but not by his own choice. Ilya, along for the ride, also has to learn what it means to be connected to a place, to a person, and to his own inner truth.
(Sequel to “something you can fix,” set post-Heated Rivalry, pre-The Long Game)

Summary
Maybe if the video ended there, Shane thought, it would be okay. Okayish. Still incriminating. Still a fucking disaster. Still embarrassing, to have his breakup with this beautiful actress filmed and disseminated on Reddit of all fucking places, but not a nail in his coffin, burying him alive. But the video didn’t end there.
“Can I ask if you’ve ever been with another guy?” she had to ask.
And he, tears visible in his eyes, had to nod.
Just once. Just a single nod.
Why did he have to nod?
“Have you ever told anyone that before?” He shook his head. “Was it different? With a guy?”
“Of course.”
Of course.
“Was it better?”
“Yes.”
+++
Shane’s conversation with Rose is secretly recorded. Months later, after the All-Star game and Ilya’s confession in Russian, the video gets leaked online. Shane is outed to the world while Ilya is in Russia, and must now finish the 2016-2017 season with the entire world in on his secret.
