Summary
“Back then,” Yuuri asks. “Did you love me?”
The cigarette hangs low, tucked between Victor’s lips. The end glows steadily orange, devil eyes on a coal-black night.
(Some ghosts of your past you leave well alone.)(Or: the powered assassins AU in which betrayal comes first, forgiveness second, and love was always somewhere in the equation.)

Summary
Otabek looks at him like his eyes don’t matter, raises a single fucking eyebrow like he’s saying -
Yeah, I’ve got monsters too, let’s pull them out and play -
Like Yuri’s the one with the problem here, two sizes too small for the trappings of his skin.
Yuri smokes too much, drinks hard from bottles in colours he can’t keep track of, rides every edge he can find because it’s easier to chase a high than to stop and think, for one second, that if the eyes are the window to the soul, then what is it in him that died and is rotting?
(Or: the powered assassins AU in which Yuri has emotional attachment Issues™, Otabek is long-suffering, and they skirt around a four-letter word that begins with L.)
Set in the same 'verse as our doubts are traitors, but functions well as a standalone.

Summary
The cards that accompany the gifts all end on the same note -
You’re the first person I’ve ever wanted to hold on to.
The thing is -
Victor is kind. Victor is funny, and sweet, and warm and wonderful and isolated and lonely, and -
Yuuri thinks he might be a little bit in love.
(A lot.)(A Canon Divergence, Secret Admirer!AU written as a gift fic for the eternally patient look-and-wonder.)

Summary
Yuuri overflows with the weight of things that have been said, trembles with what remains.
Their shared zeroes flicker in time, the early morning light muting the red glow to faint numbers. In the amber dawn, an idol is only just a man.
(Or: the Soulmate Timers AU where things happen out of order, secrets are kept, revelations are had, and they arrive where they need to be in the end.)

Summary
The sun glints off their twin gold bands, the band strikes up their first dance, and together, they follow each other into the rest of their lives.
(Or: the wedding fic fix we all need.)

Summary
Centuries after the surface of the earth was devastated by an unknown disaster, the remnants of humanity live in a series of vast underground silos, each unaware of the existence of the others.
For the inhabitants of Silo 34, the silo is the world, and the only world they know. Questions about the outside world are forbidden, and asking them is what got Dean Winchester's parents killed. He isn't even sure himself that they weren't crazy.
That all changes when he hears a voice on the radio -- a voice from another world.
