Summary
"In your hands, there's a touch that can heal
But in those same hands, is the power to kill."*
With all his time spent at the Library recently, Neil has been excelling at his studies. It’s only too bad he can’t say the same thing about his sleep.

Triple Chocolate Fudge Brownie by liminal_trace for eyeslikefireflies

Summary
Fleetingly he thinks of his favourite flavour ice cream, triple choc fudge brownie with caramel bits. The others laugh, or disapprove- in Kevin’s case, they call it an addiction as if they know what it means. And perhaps they do, Andrew thinks of track marks and Aaron yelling obscenities at the bathroom door. But ice cream isn’t an addiction for Andrew, it’s a way of coping. A shitty, sugary mechanism for dopamine and unharmful urges.

Summary
Wymack has his arms crossed over his chest as he stares at Neil, eyes hard, and long enough for Neil to start feeling uncomfortable again. Before Neil can say anything, Wymack glances away and Neil follows, landing on Andrew and Renee. Wymack seems to wait till Neil has followed his gaze before delivering the punch. “And you’re going to see Betsy, I won’t have an argument with you, not about this.”
Neil snaps his head back so fast that the back of his neck twinges in pain, which he ignores in favour of gaping at Wymack. His stomach sinks down to the ground and when he swallows he feels protests scratching at the back of his throat.
“Coach…” Neil starts before he lets out a dark humourless laugh. He attempts to arrange his wobbly limbs to stand taller, firmer. “You can’t make me.”

Or, the one where Neil goes to therapy.

Summary
Neil got up to sit right in front of Andrew, phantom hands floating above Andrew’s knees, staring into his eyes, eyes that looked as dead as Neil was.

Summary
The term monster that the upperclassman love to refer to him by had not surprised him in the slightest. He was filled with monsters, it only made sense that he was branded by them.

10 tips to stress less, without the tips by liminal_trace for Stjosten

Summary
A lonely Neil lets his therapist bully him into checking out the clinic's support group without too much fuss, but little did he know he wouldn't be checking out the group that day, instead meeting a dramatic hunk of a man who drives a fancy car and forgets to wipe the cream off the corner of his lip. It's only fair that Neil tries to do it for him, right?

Summary
His anger was all consuming, spitfire and laser sharp words rolled into one; body shaking with suppressed emotions, heat and rage and sweat making up his entire body. Sometimes it got so bad that Neil felt like he’d crack right in the middle, splitting his body into two with no way to stitch himself back together.
*
Or, between his new position as Vice (which Neil still thought of as a bad idea to begin with), the stress over his dead father's trial, and the slowly setting realization that he had indeed lived through the past year, Neil didn't expect the new freshman to be the cherry on top of the awfully large cake. -

Summary
Andrew let go and started towards the diner but Neil remained frozen in place. He wasn’t in the mood right now, to sit at some diner with gossipy strangers gazing at his face; intrusive memories of a time when it was only him and his mother, cheap hair dye, uncomfortable contacts and a stern hand ready to drag him away him at the slightest turn.
“Neil.”

Summary
Andrew was rested with his back against the wall, fingers curled into fists underneath his pillow, the heat of his leg beside Neil’s. Other than that, their bodies weren’t touching.

Summary
Wymack stared into Kevin’s cautious eyes as he slowly sat back down at his desk. With the quickness his anger appeared, it also faded, leaving Wymack feeling hollow. Tired. Disappointed.
He was afraid of me.

Summary
Neil’s entire body was screaming at him. He could feel himself trembling, trying to balance on his hands. He felt like if he moved his whole body would give out - not unlike their last match against the Raven’s. The difference was that they weren’t facing the Ravens at this very moment.
