Summary
Winter ’88-89 in Vancouver: average weather conditions, rarely dropping below freezing. The snow doesn't last long.
It’s the first time Jules and Alyosha spend their winter holidays away from family. They’ve learned how to be rookies together, they've been a team inside a team through training camp, and the start of the season, and all the months after. It only makes sense for them to stick together one more time, to get through two nights of missing home, together. It’s no big deal.
After all, what are friends for?

Alexei presses the palm of his hands to his eyes, wishing he could fall asleep already instead of revisiting the past. He doesn’t kid himself. He didn’t do the right thing by leaving, it was just the thing to do.

Summary
Merlin is a recent graduate with a double doctorate in metaphysics and physics. Arthur is a low-level paper pusher with a desk in the sub-basement of MI5. They live in a world with ridiculous laws and restrictions against anyone who might be supernatural in any way, shape, or design.
Merlin has huge debts looming over this head, a few quid left in his bank account, and no job prospects. Arthur is pushing thirty, in a dead-end job with no chances of promotion to fieldwork agent, and is thoroughly bored with his life.
One ill-advised Craigslist advert, five pushy mates, one nosy all-knowing sister, and a hacked email account later, Merlin and Arthur take the world by storm.
(Or, more precisely, they take over the world.)

Summary
As far as potion accidents go in general, and deaging incidents go in particular, Draco knew this could have been so much worse. Harry only lost about ten years, and all his memories are still intact. But the sight of him looking as if he’s stepped straight out of Draco’s Hogwarts memories has dredged up a whole mess of complicated feelings Draco thought he’d buried years ago, and Draco really doesn’t know what to do with any of it.

Summary
The first time Andrew realizes he wants to hear the words, Neil isn’t even doing anything. He’s just sitting there, staring at the horizon with that stupidly dramatic faraway expression of his, and letting the cigarette burn down between his fingers all the way to the filter — an outrageous waste of good nicotine, if you asked Andrew.
(Or: 20+ times Andrew and Neil say I love you, and one time they say it out loud.)
