Summary
On the screen, the camera pans down as they introduce the contestants. Mary, on her 3rd day winning streak, is a dowdy teacher type. Center stage is occupied by a graying man with loopy handwriting named Auggie. And all the way to the right is…
Evan.
Damn.
---
One night when Eddie can't sleep, he discovers the hottest Jeopardy contestant of all time (objectively). With the "help" of his team and his fairly good working knowledge of Twitter, they devise a plan to get Evan (from Jeopardy) to slide into Eddie's DMs. It works surprisingly well.

Summary
“Are you homophobic?”
“What?”
“Will you be my boyfriend?”
“Yes,” Eddie answered, automatically, even though his mind had volunteered several other pressing questions, like what are you talking about and what is happening and did I recently sustain brain damage.
“Thanks,” said Buckley, and then he pushed Eddie back against the side of the firetruck and kissed him.

Summary
There are awful, exhausting moments where Neil’s body refuses to move, and he lies empty. Maybe that is why he had dropped the bowl, and maybe that is why all the batter is spilled over his lap, and maybe that is why Neil now lays on the kitchen tiles with corpse-bones and gooey honey marrow and skin that cannot piece itself back together today.
Or Neil tries to make Andrew pancakes. The batter ends up all over the floor (and Neil), because sometimes standing is hard. Andrew cleans him up.

Summary
Neil curled his fingers round Andrew’s and let himself be tugged out of the car. He took a deep breath.
Andrew tightened his grip on Neil’s and shut the door behind him. His eyes raked across his face. “Ready?”
“Yeah,” said Neil, letting the breath out again. “Sure.”
“Convincing,” said Andrew, pulling Neil behind him as they walked towards the house they’d parked in front of.

Summary
“Do you know what fanfiction is?”
Max blinks. “Yeah?”
“Oh, good,” Charles says, even more relieved. “Do you know people write about celebrities?”
Max rolls his eyes. “I’ve been briefed by PR, yeah.”
Charles flops down on the lounge, Sassy and Jimmy long gone, and props his feet up on the coffee table. Max rolls his eyes again, then sits down next to him. He and Charles are friends, kind of, and certainly closer now that they’ve ever been before, but he’s never really witnessed Charles having a PR-related meltdown before. They’re not that close.
Oh, well. A first time for everything, he supposes.
“Great!” Charles says cheerily, then unlocks his phone and shoves it in Max’s face. “Do you also know that we’re ranked second on Archive of Our Own?”

Summary
In order to get over his ex who is getting married, Kevin forces Neil to go into a pact with him: they each have to find each other’s dates to the wedding, since clearly Kevin can’t be trusted to find someone good for himself, and Neil is just hopeless.
Neil thinks he’s found a good match for Kevin in Andrew: he’s good at exy, he can tolerate Kevin at his worst, and he always turns up whenever Kevin and Neil are out and about. Neil is pretty sure Andrew is half in love with Kevin already.
Andrew is, obviously, very much into Neil.

Summary
Andrew isn't a renowed author. Sure, he has his fans here and there, a few hardcore readers, but he's not famous or internationally known.
So, when he stumbles across his own book in a place where it absolutely shouldn't be and in a language it absolutely wasn't translated to, he makes it his personal mission to find the person behind it.

Summary
“A truly exciting development here in District 12. Let’s see who will be the other brave tribute traveling to the Capitol this year.” She simply grabbed the first slip she encountered and walked back to the podium.
Neil didn’t even have time to wish for his own safety when she read the name.“Neil Josten.”
A simple The Hunger Games AU because apparently the Foxes haven't suffered enough already.

Summary
“What the hell is this, Charles?” Max stares in alarm at himself through the mirror.
No, Charles has not shaved him bald. Actually, Max just got settled down post-hair wash so Charles has not had the chance to cut a single hair on his head.
Yet here Max is, looking on in shock. Horror, even.
Why is he wearing an atrocious cape covered in dogs?!
“Hmm? What do you mean?” Charles asks innocently, turned away from Max. When Charles finally faces the mirror again, Max is still able to catch the faintest smug smile that he had not been able to repress. Sneaky fucker.

Summary
It's just because Max had to go and bring it up. He knows it's not coming from the stupid video, his shoddy grasp on English as a kid who barely went to school. It's the memory of it all, of the times he and Max have collided over and over throughout their lives. What if Max wasn't there, keeping his world on its axis, and—
"You are acting fucking weird again," Max informs him.
or: it’s the 12th anniversary of the inchident. charles still can’t tell max he loves him.

Charles was known to be a bit dramatic, Max had always known this about him.
Max almost gets a heart attack when Charles texts him:
Chéri
Come get me it hurts
Alternatively:
Five times Charles is dramatic about the most minor of injuries imaginable (and how Max handles that) and one time he's actually hurt and doesn't fucking say anythingBookmarked by cowboylikewhore (soupboo)

Summary
“Sorry I am late everyone, I overslept. What have I m-” Max stops when he sees Charles, and Charles’ stomach drops when his pale blue eyes meet his own.
Charles has never felt more stupid or naive. His name is Max, he travels for work, he lives in Monaco, they both happened to be in Milton Keynes for work. Max isn’t just “Max”. He’s Max Verstappen. Three time Formula One world champion. That’s why he looked so familiar.
or; the one where Charles is Max's performance coach, and Max teaches Charles how to be okay again
