    Summary

    "The pack meeting itself is pretty lackluster. Mostly, everyone is reconnecting, sharing some anecdotes about their time at school or what they’ve been doing at work. Even Derek manages to socialize a little. Stiles can’t help but notice how much more settled he looks. Gone are the skittish, wary glances and deep frown, forced nonchalance.
    Now he snarks with the best of them.
    Stiles almost feels bad reaching into his pocket to check his notifications."

    Summary

    "Nervous? Why would I be nervous to spend twelve weeks in a foreign country riding around in an old piece of junk car with a dull-as-fuck mechanic who thinks he's a model and smiles too much just to impress our mother?" Harry glares at the side of his sister's head as she backs out of the driveway. "Do you know he winked at her? He fucking winked Violet!"

    "Oh, so Louis thinks he's a model, does he?"

    Harry ignores her smirk. "Betrayed. Pissed off. Abused! Those are more fitting words that describe my state of mind."

    One week ago, Harry's mother introduced him to a complete stranger, and assigned them the stupidest project he's ever heard of. Now, he's on his way to America to shoot videos of the newest investment properties she's acquired, and turn the footage into a travel vlog.

    -or-

    Harry and Louis can’t stand each other and the houses they have to film turn out to be haunted. Worst. Roadtrip. Ever.

    Summary

    In all honesty, Harry was long forgotten, cast aside by a dimpled stranger and too much champagne. He was almost glad, now, that Harry hadn’t come, because he wouldn’t have met this stranger, this tall man who could make his heart flutter with a single glance. 

    Victorian!AU where Louis is a wealthy lord throwing a masquerade ball for his birthday and Harry is a toymaker who's only confident when he's wearing a mask.

    Summary

    Stiles blinks hard. He can’t argue that he’s not quite all there, a little woozier than he would like, but he’s done more difficult things a lot worse off. The wolf didn’t know shit and Stiles sure as hell didn’t need him. He huffs out a little laugh into his own chest, leaning back against the armrest and chin dropped to his sternum, head lolling slightly. His eyelids are heavier than they were a minute ago. “What makes you think I wouldn’t use the opportunity to gut you? I hunt werewolves for sport, and so does everyone I have left.”

    A careful claw tilts his chin up and it takes Stiles’ eyes a second to bring the face in front of him into stark relief. “You can barely keep your eyes open,” the wolf says softly, “I don’t think you have the upper hand now, human.”

    Summary

    Summary

    "I'm not pretending," Louis spits out. "I care about Mina. Unlike you."
    He tries to hold eye contact, but holy fuck , Harry’s blown-out pupils make it nearly impossible. It was almost frightening.
    "Really?" Harry challenges. "You're not?"
    "No."
    "No?"
    The slam of Harry's hand against the doorframe sends Louis' heart right to his throat.
    "Then why do you keep looking at me like that?"
    His eyes snap to where Harry's arm meets the side of his head, realizing he's caged him in completely.
    "Like what?" He swallows.
    Harry grins.
    "Like you're trying really fucking hard not to."

    -or-
    Louis knows his place: serving at The KettlePot, nodding along to Mina's plans for his future, and never questioning why none of this feels quite right. Then he meets her insufferable, arrogant, mate Harry. He should hate him. He does hate him. But hatred isn't supposed to feel like this. As Louis finds himself drawn deeper into Harry's chaos, he learns some lies are easier to maintain than others, especially the ones he's telling himself.

    “So what, like I gotta get you shrooms and find you people to fuck?” Harry says, rereading the list for the 10th time, still in a state of bewilderment.
    Louis doesn’t respond.
    Harry glances up. Louis is completely silent, staring very hard at a spot on the table.
    Something clicks in Harry’s tired brain. “Wait…”
    He looks back down at the list. Then back up at Louis. Then at the list again. There’s no fucking way.
    Louis clears his throat. “No, like...you’d be doing the fucking.”

    Frat Boy Harry and Genius Louis are known on CU-Boulder campus as mortal enemies. When Louis realizes he's behind his peers, he creates a bucket list.

    Summary

    When Sherlock invites John to live with him, he fails to mention that he's a single father to a four-year-old girl.

    When it comes, will it come without warning
    Just as I'm picking my nose,
    Will it knock on my door in the morning
    Or tread in the bus on my toes,
    Will it come like a change in the weather,
    Will its greeting be courteous or bluff,
    Will it alter my life altogether?
    O tell me the truth about love.

    W.H. Auden, "O Tell Me the Truth About Love."

    Summary

    “Do you like cigarettes after sex?”

    Harry blanched, wondering why on earth Louis would ask him a question like that.

    “Oh, well, I - well I have asthma, and ehm, I’m actually a virgin, so,” Harry managed to stutter out, answering purely on instinct as he fiddled with the edge of the vinyl case he was holding and looked at Louis nervously.

    He met Louis’ eye after a few seconds and saw an amused glint, one of his curved eyebrows raised in question as he nodded down at the vinyl in Harry’s hands. Harry looked down and was met with three words in white, serif typeface against a misty black background:

    Cigarettes After Sex

    or the one where harry's in his mid-20's so it's probably about time louis took his virginity

    Summary

    “What day is it?” Derek demanded.

    “What?”

    “The day! What day is today?!” Derek let Stiles go, but only so he could reach into his pocket and pull out his phone. He tapped at the home screen, and then went so perfectly still that Stiles was pretty sure this guy wasn’t human. No human could stand that still.

    When it was clear Derek wasn’t going to move again without some prompting, Stiles said, “It’s Wednesday.”

    “That’s impossible,” Derek whispered.

    “Not really, it comes around every seven days.”

    “This is impossible,” Derek said again, looking around himself, as if he was searching for something.

    Summary

    Down in the arena, the triumphant gladiator places his foot on the back of the loser, holding him there as he waits for instruction on his next move. Kill or let live. It’s barbaric, really, the bloodlust involved in this sport. Louis is pretty sure that if it wasn’t for his distaste for the killing there would be a lot more blood soaking that sand.

    As it is, his father rarely gives the kill order anymore. He gives the order to let the loser live. Louis rolls his eyes, turning away. He doesn’t miss the way the gladiator’s eyes linger on him.
