    Summary

    It’s the first time in a while that he doesn’t know what comes next. He’s dove into the water hundreds of times. Screamed as his flesh was torn apart, heard Master of Puppets in the distance and held back tears. Felt Max’s cold, small hand in his as she laid in the hospital bed. There are things that always happen, no matter how hard he tries: El doesn’t arrive in time. Eddie dies. Max is put in a coma.

    Steve fails. They lose.

    “Steve, how many loops have you been through?”

    His head is nodding, and his eyes are watery, and Eddie has approached him like a spooked animal.

    “I lost count.”

    AKA: The one where Steve Harrington is stuck in a time loop, and Eddie Munson is really fucking hard to save, or: fuck Volume 2, these bitches are in love.

    Summary

    Arthur grins at him, waves his chubby hand. "Father!" he says, because he knows he should be formal with his father. There is no Pa here, no Dad or Da.

    There's something shiny on his father's head. He points to it. "What's that?"

    "Prince Arthur!" hisses the woman holding him, but his father only chuckles. The woman relaxes, just slightly.

    "It's a crown, my son. One day, you will wear one just like it."

    Arthur tilts his head, curiously. "What colour is it?" He thinks it's grey, just a shade off of the silver of the swords. It's the same silver-grey as half of the household's shiny jewelry, a not quite true silver. He doesn't think he likes it.

    "It's gold," says his father. "There's a lot of gold here in Camelot, my son."

    Arthur nods his head, and labels that silver-ish colour gold in his mind.

     

    (Or: in a world where you can't see the colour of your soulmate's eyes until you meet them, Arthur can't see gold, and it makes his life as a prince much more difficult.)

    Summary

    Okay. No more lava. No more clones. Nothing else left to bare. If he really has the heart of a hero, Troy should probably start acting like it.

    or, troy comes home to abed. the only problem is, he's not sure which version of abed he's coming home to.

    Summary

    Now there could have been a point for it to stop there, for them both to pull back and laugh and Louis to lick Liam's cheek in return and they could have gone on, forgotten that it happened. Louis could have shoved him off the sofa and called him a perv and they could have called it a night. But when Liam closes his mouth around Louis thumb, when Lou presses down for a fraction of a second and Liam finds himself sucking a little - there really is no going back from that.
