Summary
[With Sam against him, holding his face with a gentleness only he could still have after everything, the burdens of staying alive lifted a bit. Frodo could focus on the warmth from his skin instead of the fiery heat not far away. His face was soft in that harsh world. Looking at him then felt like how it did at the beginning of the journey, back when Frodo believed he could bear anything with Sam’s endless faith and devotion at his side. And he had, in the end.]
Sam and Frodo sit on their island in the lava.

Summary
They’re calling him ‘the world’s savior’. He may have tried to destroy it first, and he may have cleaved the moon in half, but when it came down to it, Doctor Robotnik chose to sacrifice his own life to save everyone on earth. The people who shut him out. Rejected him. Resented him. Thanks to him, life goes on. Thanks to him, humanity still has a world to live on.
Stone’s world, though, floats outside of earth’s atmosphere, nothing but space dust among the stars. Robotnik may have steered the laser away from the planet, but it still blew Stone’s world into a thousand tiny pieces.

please don't make me say it (i'm sorry, i'm in love) by Macremae

Summary
At some point Hermann’s hand had migrated to the peak of his back, and Newt focused on the feeling of each thin fingertip like an anchor on his skin. After several minutes, Hermann spoke.
“I’ll be honest,” he said, voice calm in a way Newt didn’t know whether to believe or not, “this wasn’t how I expected us to meet again.”
Newt managed a dry half-chuckle. “No fucking kidding.”
When an accident (please, God, don't ask) sets Newt free from the Precursors without warning, there's clearly only one thing to do: find Hermann, get his (???) life together (to like, a point), and pretend none of this shit ever happened. Oh, and make sure nobody ever finds out about the whole possession thing. It's cool. He's cool. Newt's coping.
(He's not.)

“Will you please stop that wretched noise?” Hermann snapped. “I can barely hear myself think.”
Newton shrugged. “Nah, man. Trash all your gross air fresheners first.”
“The air fresheners are to keep the smell of your precious kaiju samples from wafting over to my side of the lab.”
“Dude, they make the smell worse. All the chemicals and shit from my side aren’t gonna disappear because you want your side to smell like fucking cinnamon apples.”Or: Hermann and Newt get sad, drunk, and together (in that order).

No?

Summary
"What am I to do with you?"
Newt just smiled as innocently as he could manage with his face half-buried in his pillows. "Anything you want."
"'Anything,’” Hermann murmured, rhetorical and playful as all hell, and damn him for somehow making those three syllables shoot Newt's pulse into overdrive. "Surely you know the dangers of offering someone the power to do anything, Newton."Newt didn’t know when they started being this open with each other, and he didn’t know when exactly he started to develop not-so-platonic feelings for his best friend, but he did know that he couldn’t let Hermann find out.

Newt has a bad day early in his recovery from the Precursors, and it only gets worse when he's confronted by an angry jaeger pilot. Hermann can't punch the evil aliens that still haunt Newt's nightmares, but a self-righteous American jock? That's fair game.
