    Summary

    He can only wonder if Charles might look up at him with that same look in his eyes. With that intense innocence, with that utmost submission, might look up at him like he is God. Might lean forward with his perfect lips parted and wrap them-

    He glances up at the portrait of Saint Sebastian. It cost him forty thousand euros. Though to Charles it may seem like a fortune, to Max, it is nothing—not even a second thought.
    He is worth it.

    OR: Charles becomes obsessed with a painting of his favorite saint. Max becomes obsessed with Charles.
    AND: Oscar wants to be able to keep his friend safe. Carlos wants to know if Oscar's insides are as pretty as his outsides.

    Summary

    "Something is still in Hawkins, he thinks, lurking down the sides of houses, between the trees, in the undergrowth. Something dark and festering. And he is the only person in the world who knows that it’s there."

     

    A year and a half after the battle of Starcourt, Billy Hargrove is back in Hawkins for the holidays. United by loneliness, he and Steve form an uneasy alliance, which slowly begins to blossom into more during Billy’s subsequent holiday visits. But whilst Billy seems to have moved on from his encounter with the Upside Down, Steve remains rattled, convinced that the apparent peace Hawkins seems to be experiencing is merely the calm before the storm. Something, he knows, is not right, and the danger may be closer to home than even he had expected.

    Summary

    “Can I trust you, Levi?”, Erwin murmurs, after, head to his back and water running cold between them.

    He didn’t use to ask, before.

    “Who else would you fucking trust”, Levi gets out, skin breaking in goosebumps. Erwin hums behind him.

    “Who indeed”, he mutters.

    Levi understands anger. He’s intimate with it. He understands Erwin thought a lot of his sacrifice and that to have this opportunity at the expense of all that sacrifice probably feels like an unforgivable sin. It fractured something fundamental between them. Most sacrifices do. Levi did not save him because he saw some hope for them; world peace and a happily ever after. He did it because he knew, in his heart, Erwin was only one black hearted enough to see this through.

    Maybe that’s love; to see the absolute worst in someone and see it as salvation, still.

    It doesn’t really matter anyway. Erwin is still dying, just slower.

    Summary

    Ollie awoke expecting pain. All he’d known these past weeks? months? years? was pain. Ever since Kimi had been caught stealing fish because he was just that hungry, ever since Ollie had taken the fall for it, ever since that first blow fell…

    But this time, something was different. The pain was there, yes, but it felt muted, distant. Like viewing a raging inferno through thick, frosted glass. Ollie blinked sluggishly, his eyelids heavy as if weighted with lead. The world around him swam in and out of focus, colours bleeding into one another in a nauseating swirl.

    He tried to lift his head, but his body refused to obey. His limbs felt leaden, unresponsive. A creeping sense of panic began to seep through the fog clouding his mind. Something was wrong.

     

    -=-

     

    A life pampered of luxury. It was public knowledge that was the fate of a Victor. No such fate awaited Ollie, mutilated to a shell of himself, a skin he didn't recognise, a person he was never meant to be. This wasn't him. This was never meant to be him.

    ft. the cost of winning, the cost of loving, and the cost of surviving. Regardless, the price is too damn high.

    No knowledge of F1 required, they’re just characters
