The garden is Andrew's place. The forest beside it is where Neil falls, with a vial in his hand and no clue where he is. - Neil knows he shouldn't stay in town, but Aaron gives him a place to stay, and there are others that Neil can't bring himself to leave. Others like Andrew, with his garden and his silence. So Neil stays and speaks to the flowers and birds, and Andrew begins to wonder about the strange man that speaks the language of rushing water and blooming roses.

“Besides, you’re not a stranger,” Neil says. “You did not know my name until a minute ago,” Andrew points out. “I’ve been petting your cat everyday for the past month, though.” “That does not make us friends.” “I didn’t say we were.” Neil tilts his head, the hint of a smirk on his lips. “We’re neighbors.” (Andrew's recent Google search history: ambient sounds to help you sleep, what qualifies you for a service dog, why do cats like to sit in boxes, daily horoscope scorpio, does quoting shakespeare mean you're being flirted with, buzzfeed quizzes food, how to be neighborly) ((or: in which Andrew and Neil are neighbors who do various neighborly things))

Midoriya Izuku has always been written off as weird. As if it's not bad enough to be the quirkless weakling, he has to be the weird quirkless weakling on top of it. But truthfully, the "weird" part is the only part that's accurate. He's determined not to be a weakling, and in spite of what it says on paper, he's not actually quirkless. Even before meeting All-Might and taking on the power of One For All, Izuku isn't quirkless. Not that anyone would believe it if he told them.

Adam walked into the small lecture hall and headed straight for the middle row. It was early, there was no one to edge past as he made it to the other side of the row and pulled his bag over his shoulder. He had thought about it the whole walk there: he wanted to stand out, he didn’t want to stand out; he wanted his hearing ear to face the front of the classroom; he didn’t want to seem like a slacker, or too keen. He pulled out a notepad and pens and finally his schedule, tapping the end of his pen restlessly against the desk as his eyes ran over and over the names of classes and lecture rooms and. He had thought about this. --- in which adam is an awkward freshman with social anxiety, gansey is a guy who gives touches easily, and his friend ronan calls adam a nerd, which he kinda likes.
i’m [26NB] having some serious problems with my new cleaning lady [17 but cursed to be 90, F]. first off, i didn’t hire a new cleaning lady, she just showed up one day and broke into my house. second of all she’s terrorising my assistant [15M] and my fire demon [semi-immortal, age unknowable, NB], as well as the small colony of friendly spiders i keep in my home. I have a lot of other stuff going on right now (king won’t get off my back, school mate possibly kidnapped, ex wants me dead, am also cursed, etc.), and I hate confrontation so tbh it’s hard to talk it out. Also despite the age gap i think i’m falling in love w her. How do i get her to stop cutting up my suits and throwing weedkiller on everything?

"I woke up with the hazy image of a Regency AU where Zhao Yunlan comes of age and goes to take over his dead mother's crumbling estate home to escape his domineering father. There he meets a very attractive person - I couldn't choose between a butler or a librarian, but there are so many other choices - but it was very dark and gloomy on the moors and Shen Wei looked amazing, so. Also, there was a ghost, or is really a dark energy creature? Shen Wei has all his powers. Zhao Yunlan has many suspicions but also many inappropriate thoughts."

Blue and Henry are off in Nicaragua, Adam's away at school, and Ronan and Gansey are left to their own devices. What could possibly go wrong? ~~ “At least they text,” Ronan said heavily. He didn’t mean it as a competition, especially since Blue and Henry had been gone almost two months straight already. But just the day before Ronan had resorted to actually texting the words: Miss you to Adam, and he’d only gotten a less-than-three in response, hours later. “He’s busy. That damned job.” Gansey half-shook his head in a disapproval he shared with Ronan. Adam’s work-study job drove them both up the wall. “And he needs his sleep,” Ronan said, dejectedly. “But I fucking miss him.” He never said that out loud. Especially not to Gansey, because it felt like the sentence “you could be at college with him if you’d done something about it” was always lurking just under the surface, and despite his explosive temper, Ronan really hated fighting with Gansey. But it was late, and neither of them had been sleeping well that week - bouts of insomnia and persistent nightmares keeping them both up till nearly dawn most nights - and Gansey’s back was to him, shoulder
