Summary
Dazai was handed a post as a game’s mastermind when he was 14. But rather than managing it, he enters the game to get the only thing he craved most. Death.
But when he entered his family’s biggest pride at 18, he met death disguised as a person with orange auburn hair, feisty, alive, and brave, despite losing everyone he had ever loved.
Dazai only knew how to imitate, hate, and envy a human---he had never, even, known that he could love a human.
So he tried to walk one step closer, with his heart in his hand, and a knife in the other. Wishing for one more thing, for the first time, other than death.

Summary
There’s a certain quiet that falls over a house when a child comes home. Even when the child is no longer quite a child.
James watches from the doorway as his son shrugs off his coat, hair damp from rain, cheeks flushed from the cold. His eyes, sharp, guarded, impossibly familiar.
He’d always told himself Harry would be different. He’d laugh easier, carry less weight, leave old patterns behind. But people don’t grow up clean and straight. They curl around what they’ve been given.

Summary
They’ve been each other’s person since they were nine years old—emotionally married long before they were legally married at nineteen. Ari grew up in a wolf war and froze herself at fifteen the day she decided Rumi was “off-limits”: sexually naive, first-base-only, all instinct and no practice, but emotionally and intellectually sharp, fiercely loyal, and stupidly in love.
Rumi grew up in the idol industry and learned everything about sex except how to feel safe during it: sexually aware, emotionally mature, brave, gentle, and scarred by years of being marketed, watched, and threatened while technically still a virgin. She knows exactly how ugly human desire can get; Ari doesn’t.
Now, at nineteen-twenty, they are finally allowed to touch in the way they’ve both wanted for years—and they have to build that from where Ari left herself at fifteen: girlfriend first, everything else second. These are the nights and mornings where they negotiate bodies, history, industry damage, wolf biology and first times, and slowly teach each other that “married” doesn’t mean “owed,” and that Rumi’s body is not a product and Ari’s wolf is not a bomb.

Summary
[rewritten summary, same fic.]
Purple is a lot of things, none of them good.
- A college student barely scraping by on singing gigs and street fights,
- The apprentice-(ish) of the strange, quiet professor Mango,
- Simultaneous friend and foe to the Color Gang, who are, despite the "Gang", perhaps the dumbest people they've ever met (and yet exceedingly smart. It's fascinating,)
- And worst of all, completely, utterly, devastatingly in love with a friend who is ten miles out of their league.They manage. It's become routine.
The only thing that could possibly throw a wrench into all of this is a development in the years-long crush they've held on Green; star performer, vastly superior friend, and the only source of (good) spontaneity in their disastrous life....ah. They jinxed it.

Summary
But the silence that day...
The silence that filled the air that day was harder than the fight itself.
If he thinks about it hard enough he swears he still can see Johnny breathing. Maybe just the slightest rise and fall of his chest, barely there, and barely visible to anyone but someone insane enough to pay that much attention. He thinks he can still feel Johnny's pulse. Faint, light, a flutter, but a hint of life.
And he wonders if they made the wrong call. He dreams about it. Nightmares of Johnny being buried alive. Johnny being cremated while still fighting to stay alive. He knows it's not sensible. Knows that no one survives that much blood loss, or the injuries Johnny sustained, and if they did, he knows they'd never be the same. But the 'what if' is always stronger than rationality.

Summary
“6 half-bloods shall face the east’s trail,
Child of rebirth and thievery shall prevail,
A puppet of hopeful lies shall fall
A friend meant nothing but to stall
Together they will face the foe of the gods
The swains’ fate star-crossed.”
