Summary
When Simon was thirteen, he found out their sun was dying.
He only understood what that meant a lot later and by the time it happened, it was almost too late.
When the first mission to save the sun and Simon’s planet fails, he finds himself on board a spaceship with a crew he has nothing in common with. And as if that wasn’t enough, the fate of the first mission haunts one of the crew members more than he’s maybe willing to admit.
As the journey takes them closer to the sun, Simon is eventually faced with something that could derail all the carefully made plans to save his planet…

Summary
Fuck it, Wille thinks. After more than a week of unbearably hot temperatures he has become someone who is desperate enough to do things he wouldn't even have been able to imagine doing before to get some sleep.
Or, Wille seeks refuge from the heat in an unconventional place. So does Simon.

Summary
Somehow, all that now brings them to cross-stitching. Given his previous attempts with handicrafts, Wille is not at all convinced. He might be halfway to drifting off, but even in his half-unconscious state he is pretty certain it won’t be his thing.
“What if I came with you this time?” Simon asks, his head coming to rest on Wille’s chest, his finger idly drawing patterns over his side. “It sounds fun.”
Wille sighs. “If it makes you happy…”
Simon raises his head, smiling so brightly at Wille the look on his face rivals the light of the bedside table lamp. “It does.”
---
Or: Wille ends up doing yet another course of handicrafts because Simon thinks he needs a hobby.

Summary
Simon is starting to think this challenge might have been a mistake. Not because he’s not having fun, because he is. Everyone he’s come across on his pin trading journeys has been sweet, more than eager to make his collection more diverse.
No, the reason he’s starting to think the challenge might have been a mistake is because of how good Wille is at it, much better than Simon ever expected. So yes, while Simon is having a lot of fun meeting people and picking up new pins, he is starting to think this challenge might have been a mistake, because it’s becoming glaringly obvious that he is going to lose it.
---
Trading pins at the Olympics is a big deal. When Simon challenges Wille to a little game of who can get the coolest pin, he has no idea how it's going to end.

Summary
Simon has been waiting for this promotion for years. He’s worked his ass off every single day, dedicated every second of his spare time to getting ready for the job and to become worthy of it. So, when the day of the announcement of the new editor-in-chief of Makalös arrives, he’s positively buzzing. As the email finally appears in his inbox, he opens it with trembling hands and reads–
New editor-in-chief: Wilhelm Larsson
And who the fuck is that?
Wilhelm doesn’t even want this job in the first place. The only reason he applied is that he needed a new employment after getting fired from the newspaper he’d been working at for – hilariously enough – simply doing his job. The catch? He doesn’t know anything at all about fashion, and who the hell reads this stuff nowadays anyway?
So, when the recruitment office messes up and he becomes the new editor-in-chief of Makalös, he finds it more than a little funny. The same, however, cannot be said for his very hot – but murderous looking – senior editor.
~
TLDR: Simon and Wilhelm work together at a fashion magazine and want to ruin each other – in very different ways.

Summary
Two small dots for eyes, slightly uneven, and a downturned mouth so dramatic it almost looks theatrical. A sad face. A deeply, unmistakably miserable little face floating in the center of his latte.
Wilhelm blinks at it.
Then he looks up.
Simon is watching him with his mouth pressed together in what is very clearly an attempt not to smile. It fails almost immediately. One corner of his mouth lifts, then the other, and before Wilhelm can decide whether or not he has imagined the whole thing, Simon tips his head slightly to one side and makes the exact same expression as the latte, eyebrows raised in sympathy, lips pulling into an exaggerated pout.
The laugh escapes Wilhelm before he can stop it.
TLDR: Wilhelm is a lawyer having a terrible day, until a barista with an adorable pout turns more than just his day around.

Almost eight years post-canon, and after disappearing without a trace three years earlier, Wille turns up on Simon's doorstep. Simon is not prepared, or willing, to confront the past and so slams the door in his face. The next day, Wille shows up again.
Having Wille back in their lives topples Simon and Felice's world. Can Simon cope with having Wille back? Can he ever forgive him for leaving? Can Wille explain his whereabouts and make amends?
Not without a lot of heartache.
