  1. Summary

    One shots following Nova and Victor from Disney's Zombies 4. Mostly hurt/comfort

    Technically these are unconnected but honestly I kinda view them as in the same continuity so they're chronological here

    Every fic in this series is going to have a fanfic cliche-style song title lyric from Dream Come True partially because the lyrics are all so good and partially because titles are so hard that I have written entire novels without figuring out what to call them

    pt5. coming soon

    Summary

    The one where Andrew makes a perfectly reasonable request and Neil takes it too far like the dumbass he is.

    Or, relationships are complicated and communication is hard. They don't always nail it.

     

    So, Andrew has hit his limit. Neil’s charged silence next to him is so loud that Andrew can’t read over the buzz of it in his ears.

     

    “Get out,” he says, turning to glare at Neil.

     

    Neil blinks at him.

     

    “Whatever stupid thing you’re obsessing over. It’s irritating. I don’t have time to solve your problems for you. Handle it. I have to study.”

     

    Instantly, he realizes it was a mistake. He watches Neil’s face and body shutter up, closing tight like he’s locking down for a hurricane. It took so fucking long to get Neil to open up in the first place. Andrew had to peel him open one truth at a time. Fuck.

    Summary

    "Squeezing his arms tight against his chest, Tim rolled into a fetal position and closed his eyes.

    There were things he ought to be doing. Putting on his wrist braces, making himself breakfast, texting good mornings so nobody thought he’d been kidnapped in his sleep.

    But just the thought of trying to get his wrists and hands to cooperate that much made them thrum painfully."

    Summary

    "But there was still something particularly ironic about him waking up and knowing that something was wrong, not because he was in pain, but because he wasn’t.

    There were little twinges of tightness as he curled his fingers in the sheet beneath him, as if his scars had migrated down to his wrists. A little stiffness in his shoulder when he flexed it to test his muscles.

    But his normal pain was gone. The aches and pangs and groans of his body had all gone silent after years of them just getting louder with every new trip to the med-bay."

    Written for day 6 of Timber Week! Alternate Prompt; "Body Swap."

    Summary

    “I lost my virginity to one of the Ravens,” Jean had said with a shrug in a moment of silence. “Does that count?”

    The two of them had shared story after story and if Jean was normal in that silence he would’ve shared his own. But he isn’t normal, so he didn’t. He instead said that and didn’t realize the effect it would have until it was too late.

    Jean did not talk about it a lot, at all really, not since Grayson had shown his face and allegedly killed himself a week later. But the girls knew enough.

    Jean had looked up to see small, sad smiles staring back at him. He had meant the words to be casual but the implication made them sink fast like heavy weights dropped into still water. He felt the intense need to claw off his mouth with his nails, but Jean had learned quickly with the Trojans that it was not a thing well-adjusted people do and caused unnecessary worry. Instead, since Jean was still in grips with his sanity, he clenched his hands into fists and let the nails bite into the skin of his palms. Effective and discrete.

    “No, Jean,” Laila had said sweetly. “That doesn’t count. Not if you don’t want it to.”

    Jean hadn’t understood.

     

    Or Jean’s exploration of intimacy and love
