Summary
Enjolras swallowed. "I didn't know he had tattoos on his back."
"Yeah," said Joly, shrugging. "I mean, he lives with me and before about noon, he's allergic to shirts—"
"Why—" said Enjolras weakly.
"I always figured he had a bad shirt experience," Joly offered. "Shirts killed his family, or his first dog got hit by a truck full of shirts."
Enjolras shook his head. His face was a little flushed.
"Ooh, are you experiencing symptoms?" said Joly, brightening. "What's your pulse doing? Are you breathing normally? How do your glands feel?"
Inspired in part by tumblr user feferi's post here, specifically: "i am in love with the idea that enjolras is so baffled by his own emotions towards grantaire that he legitimately cannot tell if he has heartburn or stomach butterflies"
Modern AU. Joly is a gentleman, a scholar, a med student—and, when need be, a matchmaker. And oh, the need is definitely being.

Summary
So it was fine. Even if Crowley couldn’t love him, he clearly liked him well enough, and that was almost the same thing.
It no doubt would have continued to be fine, or at least fine-adjacent, were it not for a narrowly averted apocalypse and several bottles of a really quite nice Riesling Aziraphale had found in the back room of his newly restored bookshop.

Summary
To understand this, one must firstly understand that Anthony Peter Havers is not crazy.
He just has a very strong sense of imagination. Or at least that’s what he is supposed to tell people. He sees people who aren’t there. He hears people who aren’t there. But that is no cause for alarm, because, as previously mentioned, he is not crazy. Just imaginative.
Or: Havers can see ghosts AU

Summary
“How much alcohol do you drink on an average week?” Achilles demands.
“None. Do you smoke?”, Patroclus hits back.
“Never. Do you consume recreational drugs on a regular basis?”
“Assuming coffee doesn’t count, no. Are you currently positive for chlamyd— wait, no, this one shouldn’t be—”
“Oh”, Achilles purrs with a deadly grin, “I didn’t think you’d be this forwa—"
“Shush. That one’s an accident.”
Patroclus strikes the question out several times in his notebook, and scans his list once again. Sperm count, no, familial history of cardiovascular disease, no, unpaid mortgage, no— aha.
“Thoughts on marriage?”
Or: Patroclus insists he is unfit for a romantic relationship. Achilles disagrees. Patroclus isn’t sure he believes himself, either.

None has understood you, but I understand you. by tooyoungtobeold
Fandoms: Dead Poets Society (1989)

Summary
“They can’t know. No one can ever know.”
Just two boys battling their inner demons, eventually finding solace in one another.
A story of the pressure of expectation, of friendships deeper than blood, and of the kind of love that saves you… just slowly.
A slow-burn fix-it fic, full of introspection and multiple POVs from friends and foe alike.
Mostly canon-compliant… until it isn’t of course.
Title from Walt Whitman’s “To You”.

Summary
“What you thinking about?” Todd prodded.
“You.”
Todds head snapped up, a strange choking noise breaking out of his throat. What had Neil just said? His mind was spinning. Why was Neil thinking about him? What did he say back? What did it mean? Nothing. It didn’t mean anything it was just a playful joke from his friend. His friend.
“Good things, I hope?” Todd forced out. Aiming for casual, but ending up more in the realms of high pitched anxious stutter.
Neil’s lips twitched.
“Always.”
OR in others words:
Todd Anderson falls helplessly inconveniently and perhaps disastrously in love with his roommate.(And maybe - just maybe - Neil Perry falls too)Author Note :)
So uhhh no clue if im going to be consistent with this fic - rn its just snippets probably out of order.
IF this does well I may create a proper plot.
For now enjoy these little pieces of Welton life <3Bookmarked by Modest_Timelord
