Summary
Just when Lt. Hank Anderson feels like life can't honestly get any more shitty, life proves him wrong (again and again - with a passion). But maybe, what felt like a curse (with a cheerfully glowing LED) might just be life cutting him a break (he hears a pot falling and Sumo barking energetically).
Or, maybe not.(Getting "better" is a learning process. So is humanity.)

Summary
Todd Brotzman is probably the only person who has ever thought that working for a top-secret CIA project was boring. Maybe it wouldn't be if he wasn't a glorified janitor. Mostly he just feels bad for these miserable-looking test subjects he doesn't have the clearance to know anything about. He doesn't even know what they're being tested for.
But, as we know, the Universe is a tricky thing, and somehow Todd ends up exactly where he needs to be: in the cell of one Project Icarus.

Summary
Crowley had sworn that he would never come back. But as he stood in the sterile, white halls overlooking three Archangels and waiting for his (Aziraphale’s) demise, he was reminded that the word of a demon wasn’t worth much.
(Or Crowley masquerades as Aziraphale and reflects on Heaven, Hell, and a feeling that he will need to call 'love' out loud sooner or later.)

Summary
“Remember that you got yourself into this mess, Tooru.” Iwaizumi says softly, words a little shaky and conveying his own nerves, hot breath dancing across Oikawa’s cheek, and –
Oh my God, Oikawa thinks, waiting for the punchline to indicate that this is a joke as he feels a flush rise up his neck and filter into his cheeks, this is actually happening.
And then the string and the tension snaps, and Iwaizumi is kissing him.
---
Or: Oikawa’s and Iwaizumi’s transition from we’re just two friends doing homework in the same room to we’re definitely more than friends because now we’re making out comes slowly, and then all at once.

After what feels like an eternity but could only have been a few seconds, Kazuha smiles; there’s something melancholic in his eyes, however, and Scaramouche is about to ask what’s wrong when Kazuha says: “Okay. I believe you.” Because Kazuha trusts him.
And Scaramouche must have been a fool, because he was the one that went and threw all that trust away.

Summary
The Emperor’s Coven had learned since the last time Eda was facing petrification.
All of Luz’s paper was gone, and on the off chance she had hidden a sheet somewhere on her person, her hands were cuffed behind her back. No glyph drawing for her. And she had never seen a carriage this crystal-clean before, but it seemed they’d done away with every individual speck of dust before throwing her in there-not very gently, may she add. In different circumstances, maybe she’d have cracked a joke about the effort they’d gone to keep her contained (All this for little ol’ her? How flattering!) but at that moment all she could focus on was the overwhelming hopelessness she felt.

Or, the time between the capture and the rescue.

Eddie Munson had knew a few things. He knew that there were certain rules to be followed, others to ignore. He knew (well, learned recently) that there was an alternate dimension under his hometown that was responsible for a lot of bad shit. He knew that a Critical Hit was oftentimes fatal. And that blow Harrington just took... Well. Eddie didn't like the odds.
Or, those bats did a number on Steve, and no one is talking about it. Also, Eddie survives because I said so.

Summary
“Honestly, I would pay for someone else to make them for me. Like, I get that making them is half the fun, but is it fun when I feel like I’m going to cry from frustration at any moment?”
The girl and her friends laughed before one of them said, “Yeah, who knew Rainbow Loom would be so difficult?”
Erica turned to Tina and smiled slyly at her. “You thinking what I’m thinking?”
Tina smiled back. “Undoubtedly.”
This was going to be fun.
OR:
Erica monopolizes the Rainbow Loom bracelet industry in Hawkins Middle and generally suffers via The Party and also others

Summary
He used to like the quiet. A long time ago, it feels like. Before Denji, before Power, before it all became too much.
(That’s a lie. It’s not too much. If anything, it feels too little.)
