Summary
The thing was, these popular types, the Royalty of High School Society? They just wanted to be entertained. They wanted something to break though the dull monotony of life at the top of the food chain, and if nothing happened to catch their interest, they made their own fun.
Good thing Eddie was unparalleled at keeping little sheeps entertained.Series

Summary
It's 2015. Ben is dead, but he's doing his best to keep his brother alive. It's not easy, when Klaus's first priority is to stay high all the time.
In the midst of a particularly rough patch, the ghost of a soldier shows up claiming to know Klaus from the Vietnam War. Weird, right?
But as it turns out, a timely intervention by this dead soldier may just turn everything around—Klaus's relationship with his siblings, his relationship with his powers, and (does Ben even dare to hope?) his relationship with drugs.
(What is this fic about, actually? I'm going with: Klaus/Life enemies-to-lovers slowburn.)

Summary
Diego finds Klaus and Ben holed up in an apartment building burning books. Of course he only sees Klaus.
“…are you sure you don’t want anything else? We could go clothes shopping, there are colours other than black, you know. I think you’d look great in teal…..no, I’m not trying to mess with your style, but you’ve been wearing that fucking hoodie for…fine, fine. I guess we can’t all be fashionplates.”
Diego closed his eyes. Klaus’s voice was shrill and too cheerful, in that way he’d always been when he was pretending not to be afraid. He wondered what Klaus had taken. Wondered what nightmares he was trying to suppress.
“Hola, mein bruder, are you just going to wait out there all night?”
