    writing a movie is hard.

    writing a movie while avoiding, ignoring, and refusing to address the relationship you have with each other is harder.

    Summary

    “You'd think they'd be more into living green, what with all art being just a recycled sludge of ideas from all who came before them.”
    “Originality is the myth of capitalism,” Enjolras said, avoiding the loose cobbles of the plaza and the sludge that lay therein. “Where are we going?”
    “Museum,” Grantaire said.

    Temporarily moving abroad certainly widens all horizons.

    Feat. an abundance of promenades, unsafe painting practices, subtle but lovingly placed mentions of tattoos, arguments over Italian pastry, debates over French cooking, enough European references to satisfy my heart, harmless but copious flirting, and maybe one cat.

    Summary

         Other people escape to faraway Greek islands because of boys. Enjolras makes his escape because of the 1979 election result.

        (“It is also because of a boy though,” says Courfeyrac. “I mean, it’s actually mostly because of a boy.”

         Combeferre elbows him pointedly. “You’re supposed to be bolstering,” he hisses, and then pastes on an obliging smile for Enjolras. “How could the British people do this to us?” he demands melodramatically, and takes advantage of Enjolras’s distracted rant about how it wasn’t the fault of the people; no one’s offering a good option; they’ve been completely let down by the major parties! to pry the empty ice-cream tub out of his cold, heartbroken hands.)

    Summary

    It all begins when Enjolras’s power goes out in the middle of the night.
    Or, well, that’s not exactly true. It actually begins five years earlier, but that’s a very long story and Enjolras, quite frankly, does not have time to start from the beginning.
    And so, for the sake of convenience, it begins when Enjolras’s power goes out while he’s in the middle of writing an editorial, taking the wifi and the very last shreds of Enjolras’s patience with it.
    Enjolras takes a deep breath, lets it out slowly, and says, very quietly, “Fuck!”

    In which Enjolras gets the flu, Combeferre is in Morocco, and Grantaire is trying his best.

    Summary

    The sensation of passing out is not unfamiliar to Mike Ross.

    Ever since he was a kid, he had a tendency to do things too fast, pushing himself to the point of exhaustion without realising it, and what with being such a skinny, scrawny little thing who never really ate enough, his body had never really learnt to cope.

    He’d been scared the first few times, confused why he suddenly felt so dizzy and nauseous all the time, why sometimes when he’d stand up too quickly or run too fast in gym lessons the room would suddenly be swaying uncertainly, vision greying out before he’d wake up on the floor.

    But he’d gotten used to it.

    Summary

    “It doesn’t make any sense, you— you don’t like me like that.”

    Langdon laughs, thinking that this is just cruel to him, and Mel looks confused by it.

    “Mel, this is a little unfair,” He sighs. “Who wouldn’t like you?”

     

    or, where Langdon and Mel are just too blind to understand each other.

    Summary

    It’s Mel King, who looks absolutely identical to the other times—count them, three—he’s seen her: honey-colored braid, no-nonsense thick-framed glasses, a slightly uncertain expression playing across her face, which Frank already knows hides the strength of her convictions.

    Summary

    The car pooling, she thought, represented this blurring of boundaries: not quite work but not quite personal life, either. If somebody asked her if she ever saw Langdon outside of the hospital, what should she say?

    Mel and Langdon car pool to work.

    Amongst other things, Mel's learned the art of sleeping where she sits, chugging a gallon of water in under a minute and memorising the etiology of rare venereal diseases. The basics, one might argue.

    Summary

    Enjolras is the artistic director of the ABC Theatre Collective: a group that aims to Advocate for minority-group representation in all areas of theatre, Broaden the canon of commonly-produced works, and Change the world through powerful and thought-provoking theatre, while maintaining the spirit of a collective and splitting its profits equally among all members. Unfortunately, there aren’t any profits to speak of. Enter theatre marketing genius Grantaire, who tells Enjolras that if he wants people to come to his shows, he should start putting on plays that people actually want to come see—not that it matters, because theatre is a dying art.

    Summary

    Sometimes, a parent might tuck in their child at night and find an empty bed in the morning.

    In 1996, Sam Winchester vanished in an empty room. He reappeared two months later with missing hair, bruises and vacant eyes.

    By 2000, Dean Winchester is a hunter in his own right. He travels to Minnesota where his brother now lives with Pastor Jim, a long-time friend of their father's. The thing is, John Winchester recently went into the house that ruined his youngest son and he never came back out. Thing is, Sam is the only person who knows what's in the house. Thing is, Sam Winchester hasn't spoken in four years.

    Summary

    [anonymous advent calendar-style gifts AU]

    On December 1st, Enjolras finds chocolate-covered coffee beans in his mailbox; on the 2nd, it's personalized cufflinks. His friends all seem to know who's responsible for the daily anonymous gifts, but they're staying quiet. Enjolras would probably do a better job of investigating if he wasn't distracted by the way Grantaire seems to have finally taken an interest in their cause.

    Contains many, many references to Captain Planet.

    Summary

    Mark pulls up another chair and starts shuffling through the papers. Adam looks at Lawrence, who looks back at him, and they have some sort of psychic exchange about not wanting Mark there, but apparently Mark isn’t susceptible to mind control, so he remains. Adam figures he’s still on babysitting duty: either that, or he doesn’t want them to unionize while he’s gone.

    Amanda tells him: You’ll get used to it. And he does. It’s not so different from what he’s already used to, anyway. Stalk some poor loser, take a few pictures, report back to his employers. Except they’re not his employers, they’re- well. Something.

    Summary

    Enjolras presses his lips together. He already looks pained, and Grantaire hasn't even opened his mouth yet. That's got to be a record, even for them.

    "I need a favor," he says at last.

    "With what?" says Grantaire. "Ooh, are you forming a cult? Can I join? I'd be awesome at cults, I just know it." He ticks off his qualifications on his fingers. "I love chanting, I look great in robes—"

    (High school AU. Grantaire the disaffected stoner is pulled into a cause bigger than himself. Or: in which there are pretend boyfriends for great justice.)
