    Summary

    When they are awake and moving, Naegi-kun smiles through his exhaustion, lets Fukawa-san take his turn with the gas mask when she starts coughing and can't stop. It is a new thing entirely for Komaeda to feel as uncertain as this.

    (In which Komaeda meets the survivors of the mutual killing, and very little about it goes as he had planned.)

    Summary

    The sunlight, when it comes, is welcome; Komaeda gazes at it, the faint new line it has drawn on the floorboards, places himself in the world by the mark it has made. It is just bright enough to persuade his eyes to stay open, just beautiful enough to divert his attention from the ache of immobility in his shoulders and arms. He’s fortunate like that, even now!

    (In which Komaeda dislikes being tied up -- not that he can properly admit it.)

    Summary

    There is still hope. Komaeda believes this. There is hope with every scarlet sunrise and bloodsoaked sunset; there is hope in every raindrop laced with acid, in every shard of shattered glass and every rusted carcass of what was once a car or tram. There is hope in every crumbling skyscraper and every mutilated monument, every scream and every sob and every last rattling breath.

    (In which someone else won the Hope's Peak lottery, and all Komaeda got was this lousy apocalypse.)

    Summary

    Hinata doesn't remember agreeing to share a bed with Komaeda -- not when there's a perfectly acceptable couch across the room. And he definitely didn't agree to having Komaeda sprawled underneath him, naked to the waist with a gleam in his eye, still smiling that same beatific smile.

    (In which Komaeda is an alarming bedfellow, and Hinata has no idea what's going on.)

    Summary

    It is perhaps ironic that the first thing they do, once they've outrun the horde and caught their breath, is begin to construct a barricade.

    Summary

    Enjolras decides to stick it to the Man by building a barricade in the history classroom. There is, Grantaire decides, not enough vodka in the world. (A very tongue-in-cheek high school AU.)

    Summary

    “Dirk,” says Jake, perched on the edge of a desk, kicking his legs anxiously back and forth. Dirk stares at the expanse of skin between shorts and socks, every hair catching the classroom’s unshaded light. “Dirk – not to be bothersome or anything of the sort, but – how are we going to get out of here? Because I’d be pissed off to the Nth degree if I were to miss robotics club, you know! It would bugger up my day and no mistake. What’s the plan, Stan?”

    (In which Dirk Strider is the little control freak that could, and Jake English is quite thoroughly Stockholmed.)

    Summary

    It takes you another week to realise that you have forgotten how to live without him.
