Summary
“You can’t come here. This is my house," the man repeated once Hoseok voiced his confusion. He didn’t look much older than 20, and now the wobble of his lips seemed to be spread through his whole body. “Please go away.”
Sure, it was a house – a house that Hoseok had bought, thank you very much – but in those conditions it wasn’t a place to live at all. The floor was a mess of dust and dry mud, the stairs covered in moss. The man was sure the electricity wasn’t on and the water didn’t run through the pipes, not if the calls he made that morning to request both to start working were valid.

hoseok buys an old house to turn into an arts center. homeless hybrid jungkook "lives" there and refuses to go out. life happens.

Summary
So, she does. She walks him around the house, lost again somewhere in her future world. Awake and dreaming. Her eyes gloss over, her voice is filled with child like enchantment as she explains her vision to him. He watches her with the same wonder in which she takes in the house. He watches her with careful eyes. He admires her as she animatedly explains her vision to him. He might not be able to see what she sees but he sees her, and he looks at her with a love and devotion that seems well beyond his young age. He barely looks at the house, hardly registers the sad state is it in, he just sees her. He sees how much she loves it and her love is reflected back in his gaze.
The house still belongs to Mary, but soon it will also be home to someone else. A girl who fell in love with it at first sight, just like Mary had once upon a time. A girl who will make it her own. A girl who loves a boy and dreams of a future and a family in this house.

Being together meant that Derek's hurt was Stiles' hurt and Stiles' hurt was Derek's hurt, meant that injuries and sicknesses, good days and bad days, lazy days and pack days were always shared with the other, were always something that was dealt with as a unit. No longer did Derek have to run into the wilderness alone, lost and confused and wondering whether he would ever find a home, because he knew where home was and it was right where Stiles was - always.

It is easier not to talk. There is the hollow space behind Song Lan's teeth, the raw taste where his wound is still healing, will always be healing. Will never be properly healed. Even if Song Lan could speak, it would be better not to. If they don't talk about what happened in the time they spent apart, they can pretend nothing has changed between them. They are good at pretending, good at slipping back into their old selves. They still wander from wild place to wild place. At night they still sleep under the stars, in open fields and in forests and sometimes in abandoned towns, between the walls of houses that no longer have roofs.

Xiao Xingchen survives Yi City. Song Lan and Xiao Xingchen relearn each other.

“Oh what bullshit,” Greta said so matter of factly that Trevor actually grinned. “I saw his face when he came back. The man was more dead than alive and still had the energy to cling to your hand like it was water in the desert.”
Trevor felt his cheeks flush. He hadn’t thought he’d been that obvious. So what if he’d clung? He’d had the chance to think a little bit about what he was returning to, and then it had become who he was returning to.

They may not need the Other Guy every day, but years of experience in science have taught Bruce a lot about what makes people and laboratories not only function, but excel. A couple of months with the Avengers has taught him that they both have a place here, and that he needs the others just as much as they need the Other Guy, and him.

Summary
The words were stuck on loop, Stiles’ broken voice repeating them over and over. Derek didn’t realize he was crying until he let out a broken noise, so low he could barely hear it himself. His hands dug into his eyes trying to stop the flow but the tears kept coming. He couldn’t breathe, he couldn’t think, he couldn’t be strong like he’s supposed to be.
He was weak. So weak.
He walked away from the only person that felt like home.
Somewhere in the back of his mind he couldn’t help but acknowledge that by the time he got back, his home would be miles away, once again leaving him all alone.

Summary
Dean Winchester is staring down the barrel of forty years with nothing to show for it. Nothing, save for a house that’s falling apart around him and a tumultuous, strained relationship with both his teenage son Jack and his estranged husband Castiel. In the face of earth-shattering, painful news, he decides to go for broke attempting to rebuild all three from the ground up before it’s too late.
“Life as a House” follows Dean’s determined journey to tear down his old life and literally build a new one by finally following through on twenty-year-old plans to construct the house he once designed for him and Cas to live happily ever after in. But before he can do that he’ll have to tear down not only the house his father left him but all the walls he’s built up over the years to keep the people he cares about at arm’s length. Will his efforts be enough to repair his relationships and put to right all of the mistakes he’s made before his time is up?
A poignant, emotional love story set against the backdrop of Southern California and the Pacific Ocean about hope, heartbreak, regret, taking chances, and how it’s never too late to start all over again.

“You,” says Dean, when Cas doesn’t say anything. The word comes out a little fumbled, so he licks his lips and tries again. “You— okay. You get it, right? Like. Don't just do your thing where you pretend to be totally clueless about human stuff, 'cause— you know, right? When it is people take each other's last names?"
Cas, the bastard, just squints at him. Dry as anything, he says, "I believe it often occurs as part of marriage."

Bookmarker's Notes
The Force swirled and prowled around this man like a nexu, darting in to rub affectionately against him before violently lashing out. He could see glimmers of blasterfire and dust and lightsabers and unspeakable grief, but also hope and strength and possibility in this man's past, present, and future, the endless opportunities floating about his head like a crown.
Was this what a shatterpoint looked like?
*
"Don't fight me," he asked. "Please," not on this. Not when watching him suffer and die would take what tattered bits of Jango's heart and soul survived and rip them to shreds.
*
Fuck.
He liked the kid. He was scrappy and violent and mandokarla through and through.
He was also an enemy, raised by the very people who had murdered his own.
*
Had the Temple lost an Initiate or Junior Padawan recently? If so, she hadn't heard about it.
She should report this.
*
"An assignment, you seek, hmm?" Yoda asked. "An assignment you had. Failed it, you did, and lost an initiate, we did."
*
Obi-Wan felt a flash of anger, quickly buried under horror and… and fear. "Th-this is my verd'goten?" he forced out, barely audible.
*
"I'm sorry, Ob'ika," Jango murmured, clinging tighter to his little brother. "I'm so sorry. I really fucked up."
*
"What's wrong, Ob'ika?" he asked, almost to himself.
"I miss home," Obi-Wan mumbled, noting the flare of emotion from Jango. "It's stupid, I know. I can't go back, and I've got you anyways."
*
"It grieves me to say: I believe Kenobi needs to be found and returned to the Force--"
What.
*
"Meditate with me," Plo invited, heart breaking at the desperate look on the kid's face. He couldn't fix this disaster, not entirely and not on his own, but he could at least make it better.

___
Post-Season Two. Crowley makes a home for him and Aziraphale for when the angel (who he knows *does* love him) eventually comes back to him after being with Heaven falls through. But he grieves and hurts the whole time he's waiting. And when the time finally comes and a painfully apologetic and worn down Aziraphale shows up at his door to apologize, Crowley isn't able to let himself just jump at the angel and set everything aside for what they both want. He has to let his hurts and insecurities be addressed and acknowledged, or whatever relationship they form won't be solid.GREAT reunion and conversation, very cathartic. And very sweet and happy at the end.
