Summary
Bee meets Richie--for what they both think is the first time--as he’s getting the shit kicked out of him in the alley behind the Superette. There’s a certain poetry to it that will make them both sick with drunken laughter in twenty-blah years; did any of the Losers’ meetings not coincide with some sort of violence? That’s the price of admission, apparently. Blood pacts all around.
In 1989, in Derry, seven kids try to kill a monster. In 1992, Bee Marsh and Richie Tozier both end up at Portland High School for their senior year. It's less John Hughes and more Wes Craven than either of them might like, but the soundtrack is pretty good.

Summary
“Tell me to go,” Deku says. “Tell me that you don’t want me here. And I’ll leave.”
Fucking Deku. Katsuki opens his mouth, because he can do that, right? He’s got so many sins weighing down his soul that just one little lie for a good cause shouldn’t be any trouble at all.
But he can’t do it. Let the record show that he tried, all right? He fucking tried.

Podfic of Starlingthefool's Phone Tag
For this prompt on the Inception kink meme: Due to his dyslexia, Eames has memorized tons and tons of literature. He listens to books on tape on his iPod all the time. Arthur has shitty taste in everything (except suits) and listens to, like, radio-friendly rock while Eames is chillaxing with Anna Karenina on long aeroplane journeys.
Because Arthur is efficient and thinks he is being considerate, he records voicemails for Eames instead of emailing him like everyone else. Except when he's talking he tends to give asides along with the official stuff, and Eames replies to him via voicemail, and so develops a kind of AUDIO-THEMED EPISTOLARY ROMANCE ACROSS THE GLOBE.

Every responsible adult was once a twenty-something that had no damn idea what they were doing with their life. Scenes from a life before anyone would have trusted Aizawa, Yamada, and Kayama with rooms full of impressionable youth.

Summary
“You want me to call you good?” Wangji says. “To make you feel good?” Wei Ying makes a wretched, soft, surprised sound in the back of his throat. “Then will you be good?”
“Uh,” Wei Ying says. His lashes flick down again, nervously. “Good how?”
Wangji hasn’t quite thought that far ahead.

Summary
"Hey." Ed reaches across because it's the only thing that feels right. He grasps Stede's wrist and smoothes the pad of his thumb across his knuckles. Stede stops fiddling with his ring and looks up at him, wide-eyed. "This isn't Captain shit. This is God shit. Are you God?"
The room is blank with silence.
Gently, Ed repeats, "Are you God, Stede?"
Stede's voice is thin and high when he answers, "I'm not God."
"And is God here, in this room?"
Comically, Stede looks around like he might find God perched on the edge of his desk, or pulling books from his shelves to examine the spines.
"He's not," Stede concedes.
"That's right, mate. Stupid bugger doesn't associate himself with pirates."
Or: The Revenge has been becalmed for six days. Ed has bigger things to worry about, like sharks and being in love.

Summary
If there’s a truism in his profession, it’s that fear is a better bet than love. A man fears you, you both know where you stand. Love, though, love’s a right fucker. Steals your footing out from under you, leaves you dizzy and useless as a green-arsed cabin boy on his first day at sea. But he doesn’t want to be thinking about this tonight. That’s why he’s drinking.
(Four months later, Ed's on a bender in Nassau when Stede finally tracks him down.)
