Summary
Ponyboy muffles his sobs into his palms, trying to quell the tremors in his body so that Sodapop won’t notice. But his efforts prove to be futile, because he feels Soda shift from behind him anyways.
“‘ony?” Sodapop slurs, still half asleep. It’s not until Ponyboy sniffs again that his voice becomes clearer, more alert. “Pony, are you crying? What’s wrong?”
For some reason, that just makes Ponyboy cry harder. He feels like that’s all he’s good for lately.

Summary
“So, lemme get this straight,” Sam began from his position on the couch—now bundled under a heap of blankets, freshly dosed with Nyquil. The movie end credits were rolling in the background. “You guys thought I was possessed—“
“Well, technically it was Cas’ idea.” Dean interrupted, shooting a glare at the man in question, who was frowning at the television like it had personally offended him.
“—you guys thought I was possessed,” Sam continued pointedly, “all because I turned down a request to read poetry? Really?” He barked out a hoarse, tired laugh, eyes crinkling with clear amusement.
star wars, misunderstandings, and oblivious flirting. not exactly in that order.

The door swung open eagerly, revealing one lively and real Hinata Shouyou, and he was grinning just like Tobio had imagined.
“Hi–”
“Happy birthday, Shouyou,” Tobio interrupted, awkwardly holding up the crooked cake with its sloppy handwriting and half-melted frosting.

Hinata blinked slowly. “You can laugh..?"
“Obviously.” Kageyama said once he regained his breath, still battling with the smile lingering on his face. The unfamiliar warmth in his chest was a welcomed relief. It was like a small weight had been momentarily lifted off his shoulders. “Is that surprising?” He asked.
“A little. You’re so grumpy all the time.”
“I’m not grumpy.”
“Are too.” Hinata made a face, screwed-up pout. “You are right now.”
“Not.” Kageyama protested. He gingerly picked up the thermometer from the nightstand, shoving it into Hinata’s mouth to shut whatever rebuttal he was going to say up.
Or, Hinata is dramatic and sick. Kageyama is Kageyama.

Summary
“Peter!” Tony shouts, probably with a lot more force than necessary. The kid blinks awake and wipes away the drool over his mouth, looking dazed and exhausted. “You know, if you’re so uninterested in the work we do here you don’t have to show up.”
The kid blinks once. Twice. “Wha’?”

Or; Tony doesn't realise how big a mistake it is to yell at Peter, until the kid is suddenly unconscious on the floor of the lab.

Summary
It all starts with a pair of pants. Then, it’s a jacket. Then, the food, and the circles under his eyes, until finally, Peter starts cancelling their lab sessions.
Peter is acting odd, Tony wants to get to the bottom of it, but it really seems like it’s just Peter being a teenager and making poor decisions.
Until it becomes clear that’s not what’s going on at all, and now Tony has a lot of mistakes to fix.

Summary
“Sunflowers,” Usopp says excitedly, holding the bouquet out toward Sanji. “They need a lot of peace and love to grow. Here, for your kitchen window.”
“Oh, I— t-thank you,” Sanji stammers. A street performance starts on the pier, acrobats cavorting across the sand to the beat of drums. As Sanji stares at Usopp and his wide, happy smile, his own heart thumps in time to the music, faster, faster, faster—

Summary
Connor Stern is an 8-year-old boy locked away in the basement of the most notorious crime family Detroit has ever seen. His salvation comes in the form of an old, mean, alcoholic lieutenant who's desperate to see at least one kid get a happy ending.
Connor loses everything he's ever known in one night and quickly learns that his own definition of normal happens to be quite skewed. If his family's violent attempts of rescue don't kill him, the hospital visits might. Putting on weight is hard, and so is living with a handful of grumpy police officers.
But, if nothing else, he has Sumo.
