    Summary

    It's a Friday night, and instead of enjoying any of the numerous things he'd rather be doing, Stiles has been roped into dinner with his dad at the Hale's. On the plus side, Derek Hale will be there. On the minus side, Derek Hale will be there, and Stiles already has a hard enough time not making an ass of himself in front of the hottest guy in school. There's no way this can end well.

    Summary

    Of all the stupid things he’s ever done, Stiles is pretty sure this one takes the record, but it’s like a reflex that he just can’t stop. As soon as he sees the witch turn to face Derek, hand raised in Derek’s direction, he just jumps.

    There’s no thought process. No planning. Just an instinctual reaction that possibly reveals more about Stiles than he’s really willing to reflect on right now. The clearing echoes with a crash of noise and a blinding flash of white light. For a moment it seems as though the witch has called lightning from the sky, and Stiles only has a moment to realize that this is how he dies.

    Summary

    Christmas scenes to go with my other Soukoku story, Just What He Needed, which I would recommend reading first if you haven't already.

    Brief summary if you don't want to read that first:

    Dazai is now the legal guardian of a six-year-old, who is now doing her best to get him and Chuuya to get together. Chuuya's gotten his explanation about why Dazai left, is no longer angry, and is waiting for Dazai to make a move on what he knows is a mutual attraction. On the other hand, Dazai knows that his reasons for leaving being good ones don't negate the hurt he caused Chuuya so doesn't realize what him being forgiven might mean, and isn't about to ruin things between them again just because he can't keep his emotions under control.

    Summary

    Lance,

     

    When I was a kid I read about how grief makes you hurt but time makes you forget. I read about how men begin to forget the shape of their late wives’ smile. Or the slope of her nose. I read about how children begin to forget the slant of their fathers’ shoulder. How mothers forget the way their babies curled their fist.

     

    Missing you hurts like unravelling. You’re all I think about. I will never forget the fit of your hand in mine as long as I remember how to speak. And I will know the ridges of your teeth so long as I can taste. I will know the length of your back as long as I can walk. I will remember the curve of your lips as long as I can blink. I will know the way you glowed in floating blue starlight until my brain shuts down and my organs fail me.

     

    Patroclus said I will know him in death and at the end of the world.

     

    I will know you every waking second of my life, and I will make myself remember for every nanosecond in between.

     

    Nothing will compare to holding you in my arms again.

     

    Keith
