    Summary

    It’s a bit like trying on an old jacket, settling into Jackson. The general shape of it is familiar, even comforting in its own way, but there’s an adjustment period, a little breaking-in until everything fits like it should.

    Well, it’s like an old jacket for him. The way Ellie looks sometimes, completely bewildered and turning to him for reassurance or clarification, he thinks it’s a bit more like trying on a Halloween costume for her.

    Tommy and Maria had brought them their meals at first, and he’d at least been gratified to get some real food into her. After Silver Lake, she’d been off all meat for a long while, and in the hospital, exhaustion and pain had stolen what little appetite she’d managed to recover by that point. There’d been a little adjustment period here in Jackson, when they fell back on their routine of him taking bites of meat first to reassure her they were safe, but she’s slowly begun building back some flesh on her skinny little self, and it’s like he can feel a bit of his own restlessness settle with each plate of cheesy potatoes she downs with relish.

    (settling into jackson goes well, giving joel and ellie their first taste of peace)

    (and then someone sees ellie's bite scars)

    Summary

    On the sixth snatched lunch, he decides to wait and watch. It’s childish, but they’d finally had help in so work had gone quickly enough that he could work on making cuts for the cabinet framing.

    And it just so happens to offer the perfect viewpoint to watch his lunch bag on the passenger side of his truck without being immediately visible.

    He waits in the hours before lunch ready for a fight, ready to storm out and confront his little shit of a little brother. He knows it’s Tommy. He knows it.

    And then a little head with a brown ponytail sticks out of a bush, and he starts to wonder what he knows after all.

    The girl looks around furtively, darts forward, jumps up to get her arm over the open window, makes a basket of her shirt, shakes out the contents, tosses the bag back in, and darts off, disappearing into the bushes once more.

    All while he stands on the sidelines, saw still in hand.

    Summary

    Eddy is grabbing at his arm, bent over from laughing too hard, and Brett isn’t in a state fit enough to support him, since his own hilarity is too much. And they topple over and fall on the floor, tears in their eyes. Brett wants to burst with happiness.

    He doesn’t need anything else, as long as he has this. Doesn’t need a girlfriend, a boyfriend, doesn’t need the ache, the drama, the romance. He read it once - in a comment, under a video or a tweet, he doesn’t remember - “soulmate” it said. It sounded like the kind of cheesy stuff Eddy could say, but it wasn’t wrong. He has no other word for it apart from “best friend”, but he feels like this couldn’t properly convey everything they are to the other.

    ****

    Or - when a meeting makes you reconsider every relationship you’ve ever had, and realize your best friend is the very best.

    Summary

    Brett refreshes his email page and clicks into the file sent from editor-san. “Eddy!” He shouts without looking up from his laptop. “The video’s here! Come watch with me!”

    A few seconds later, Eddy plops down on the sofa beside him, two cups of hot chocolate floating and following him telekinetically. One of them lands on the table in front of the sofa and one flies into Eddy’s hands. “Why are we watching this again? She’s done editing everything and the team did a final check for us already.”

    Brett shrugs. “Just to make sure everything’s good before posting it on YouTube, since this is about something very, very controversial. We might lose all four million subscribers for all we know.”

    Eddy frowns and plugs the earphones into Brett’s laptop, handing one earbud to Brett. “Let’s just watch first.”

    Summary

    "Are you going for the course?" Lovegood asked. "You have the NEWTs.”

    “What course?” Draco said, then, “No, don’t be ridiculous,” when he realized she meant the notice pinned up on the board he’d been staring at: Applicants To The Introductory Mediwizard Course For The Coming Term Shall Present Themselves In The Chief Mediwizard’s Office By August 24th.

    “Oh, I thought you might,” she said. “Well, goodbye.” And off she wandered again in her addled way.
