    Summary

    In a desperate, last-ditch flail of an effort to salvage the situation, Mike grabbed Will’s arm.

    The silence veered from heavy to charged. All of Mike’s attention surged into his hand. He felt like the entirety of his consciousness was suddenly located in the place where his skin touched Will’s.

    What the fuck, thought Mike for the second time in ten minutes.

    Or,
    After first using his powers, Will falls unconscious—and stays that way. Refusing to leave Will's side, Mike reflects on the last year and a half while he waits for Will to wake up.

    aka mikewhatthefuckdidyoudogate, FEATURING: wound cleaning, bed sharing, disco, Jealous!Mike, queer literary analysis, & the most horrifying eldritch specter of all (gay panic). Canon compliant through S5 Vol 1.

    Summary

    It's been a few months since the group has escaped the circus, and things are going well, for the most part. They've got jobs, hobbies, relationships, and they've all jumped back into life with more vigor than ever before. It's good. Almost. Jax thinks that's a sign, in a weird way, that perhaps all of this isn't as worthy as it seems. That he's not as worthy. Not that it matters.

    And so, on one random Sunday night, Jax decides he's going to take his own life.

    Or
    Author wanted to write a character study about Jax coping in the real world while also learning to see himself as a person.

    Summary

    “Yeah, no. I’m not leaving you here like this,” Pomni said firmly. Jax shrugged.
    “Fine. Guess we’ll just sit here.” He hid his eyes again.
    “Jax, come on,” Pomni moved closer to him, her hand still on his knee. “I know you’re in a lot of pain. You can’t stay like this forever.”
    “Wanna bet? Besides,” Jax now sat up with a bit of energy, and Pomni could hear his voice resume its familiar, casual tone. “I’m perfectly fine! In fact, I’m beginning to think yellow suits me much better after all.”
    ---------------
    Set in an alternate episode 8 where Caine pops Pomni and Jax back into the circus after their bespoke torture scenarios and leaves them alone. (idk I just needed an excuse for Pomni to confront peeled Jax)

    Summary

    As her eyes scanned over her friends, assessing the damage, she noticed that someone was missing from their ranks. “...Jax?” She called out. She couldn’t see him anywhere nearby.

    A wave of anxiety overcame her as she imagined what kind of state Jax might be in, thinking of her own torture at Caine’s hands, as well as the apparent aftermath of everyone else’s. She had to find him.

    Summary

    “I think we all understand each other now” 

     

    Oh Jax understands, he understands perfectly fine. This is the moment where the other shoe finally drops. He had been waiting on it for years. Too bad he believed he'd be the one to drop it. That he was the one who still had some form of control. That this was all just a game. That nothing mattered. 

     

    How wrong he was.

    Summary

    Over a year ago, the group escaped the circus.
    Several months later, Jax attempted to take his own life, only to be saved by the people he swore hated him.
    Things have been better lately, he thinks, after he started therapy. He finds that he likes talking about these sorts of things, if you can believe it. Feels nice to get that gunk out, to remove the gross parts of him that he never dared touch before. Unfortunately for him, though, there's still a lot more than needs to come out.

    Or
    Author wanted to write some short drabbles about Jax's time in therapy after the events of "That Sort of Thing."

    Summary

    I noticed when rewatching ATLA that Zuko has a little bit of a lisp in some scenes, so I decided to write a fic expanding on it and explaining how I imagine his relationship with it throughout his life, and how other people in his life responded to it.

    It's my first time writing a fic with these characters, so I'm sorry for the inevitable mischaracterization in here.

    Summary

    Zuko’s breath hitched. “I-I can’t,” he said, almost whispering.
    Toph felt the tremor in his stance, the way his heartbeat spiked, the way his breath stuttered. “…Sparky?” she said, softer now.
    Zuko flinched. He took a step back. “I can’t,” he repeated, louder this time. “I can’t- just- eat something that’ll make me- say things.”
    Aang blinked. “But… It’s just truth serum. We’re all saying things,” he said, confused. “That’s the problem,” Zuko snapped, voice cracking. “You’re all saying things you don’t mind being heard.” Toph’s brows furrowed. “Zuko, what are you-”
    “I can’t,” he said again, as if the word itself was a shield. “I can’t risk-” He cut himself off, jaw clenching so hard it trembled.

    Or
    Sokka accidentally buys truth serum and tries to deny it. The Gaang tries to prove him wrong by asking Zuko to drink it, but Zuko cannot do that knowing all the secrets that he'll reveal that way.

    Summary

    Based on this incorrect quote I made a while ago...
    Kinger: I love my four daughters.
    Zooble: ...Kinger, I'm not a girl.
    Kinger: Oh, I know!
    Jax/Daisy: *sweats anxiously in the background*

    OR: Kinger confesses his love for his adopted daughters (and Zoobles), Jax overhears and tries very hard not to think about what that may mean, only to realize that hey, maybe that fourth daughter is JAX.
    ...But that wouldn't work, because Jax is a guy, right?
    Right?

    Summary

    Post-escape from the digital circus, Pomni finds it difficult to navigate. They have to repair their broken lives after three years of imprisonment within the walls of C&A, once stuck inside a world now lifeless and dead. It’s… an uncomfortable existence out in the real world. Not the freedom and bliss they had imagined lay behind the real exit door.

    They trip their ways into a semi-stable living situation. The six of them. Together. It’s only a matter of time before the tiger breaks free from the cage as memories resurface and the ugly truth lurches forward to bite them. It’s only a matter of time before somebody so seemingly put together snaps. He bends for so long in the outside world and now Pomni gets to witness how Jax, of all people, begins to unravel.

    Summary

    “It's… he pulled them,” Jax blurts.

    Pomni blinks up at him, uncomprehending.

    “Your… ears?”

    Jax nods, swallowing back the bile building in his throat.

    “Pulling them hurts?” Pomni guesses.

    “You… he pulled them until I–” he sucks in a breath, letting it out in a shaky exhale. “I'm not… It's like a costume, Pomni. He tore it off.”

    Jax grapples with the aftermath of the torment nexus.

    Except it is.

    Jax chokes in a breath. He tries not to be so painfully self-conscious of how he’s shaking."

    Summary

    Will’s eyes flicked to Lucas. His eyebrows were high up on his forehead, eyes widened, and he shifted up a little straighter, like he was intrigued. Like he knew what was coming, and was bracing for it. 

    “And— and it’s like… shit, it’s like— kind of awful, y’know? Um. To figure out. The thing’s not awful. Well— maybe. Probably. Possibly? You guys might think so. My dad thinks so. I kind of think so? Uh. Well. Not as much. Not anymore?” His shuddering hand gestured outwards, pointing at nothing, a wide gesticulation of no substance or meaning beyond nervous habit. Mike sucked in another harsh breath. “And it’s like… this— this massive thing. Like, life-changing. It’s kind of re-contextualised my whole life, actually. Like I’ve suddenly switched D&D classes, or something.” 

    Or: Mike is the Party member everyone believes is gay. Mike is also the Party member that comes out first.

    Or: the answer to MWTFDYDgate.

    Summary

    Breath catching in his throat, he spins his entire body around to stare at it, locking eyes with the darkness that should not be there.

    It feels like gazing into the abyss itself.

    A phrase pops into his head, something about staring into the abyss. Or was it the void...?

    A neon eye opens in the centre of the black mass.

    It stares back.

    ------------

    Jax hides away in his room and thinks everything is fine. It's not.

    Summary

    Over the course of her life—both outside of the circus, and within it—Jax has wanted a lot of things that she thought she couldn’t have. She's lost friends over it before (in the most vague and the most terrible sort of ways), and she nearly lost everything she had with Pomni over it, too.

    She’d been resigned to avoiding it all for so long because none of it was supposed to be for her. But having arrived at some new conclusions with the help of an appearance-changing adventure and an argument in the woods, she thinks that maybe it’s time to figure out the kind of life she really wants to live. She knows who she is, now, after all; surely that has to count for something?

    (But this is, of course, about more than being a girl.)

    (Or: A series of girls’ nights between Pomni and 'Jax'. Two where they hesitate for just a moment too long, and one where they don't.)
