Summary
“Stay away from me,” Michael finally snaps, hands outstretched, the third time that David tries to grab him by the arm and pull him in.
David, who had been halfway through some sort of joke about something that happened at last night’s gig, pauses, and then drops his arms with a sigh. He looks disappointed, like Michael is being very boring.
“Michael, please,” He says, extending both hands palms-up, like a show of peace. “No one here is going to hurt you, we’re–”
“Not like that,” Michael groans, and scrubs his face with his hands. “I stink.”
David pauses, reassessing. And then slowly, he smiles.
“You what?”
“I smell, man,” Michael pushes himself up off the couch and takes a sharp step away from him. “You could have told me this was part of… all of this! I haven’t been able to shower in forever. I feel gross, I smell gross– I’m supposed to just live like this? Forever?”
“No, no,” David says, waving a hand lazily in the air. “Don’t worry. It’s an easy solution. Come on, I’ve got something that will help.”

Summary
Explains:
● how to make a work skin;
● how to view fics' work skin rules;
● how to colorize text and circle words and highlight backgrounds (examples in head-note), and change and resize your fonts;
● how to turn all links blue-underscore automatically;
● the CSS code for diacritics to render properly, e.g.: “ầ” & “ồ” (with diacritics not superimposed), or “ị” (with underdot directly beneath, not kerned to the left), without breaking words such as “gầu” or “vịt” (using a monotype font for these letters would create gaps to each side of the ầ or the ị). Head-note has corrected examples;
● Site Skin addenda to block / shrink tags, and block authors / works;
● even a quick way (code included) to simply make a Site Skin so that you can read everything in your font of preference!Full code is included.
I read, appreciate, and reply to all of your comments — they're always welcome!

Summary
Jayce’s eyes snap to him, and Viktor almost gasps. There’s something wrong. Well, obviously, your lab partner’s just been regurgitated from a roiling ball of energy with a beard and a massive fuck-off hammer, thank you for the observation, Viktor - but there’s something wrong with Jayce, with his eyes. He looks crazed. He looks horrified, and all the more horrified the longer he stares.
“No,” Jayce breathes. He staggers forward, catching himself with his hammer. “No. No, no, no, it can’t be you. He didn’t mean- no.”
Viktor holds out a hand like he’s soothing a feral cat. “Are you alright? I can help you. Just- just let me stand.”
He picks up his cane, leveraging himself from the ground. Jayce keeps trembling.
“Not you, that’s not- that’s not what he said, not you, I can’t kill you.”
--
Jayce is sent back to a time before it all fell apart.

Summary
"I know it's my imagination," Jayce spoke quietly, close to his ear, "but I can almost feel it." He rubbed his nose against the line of Viktor's throat, like an oversized cat. "The letter, on the inside." The cold metal ring of the collar was pressing into Viktor's clavicle.
Viktor felt a sudden surge of affection, so deep and overwhelming that it wrenched his breath away. For Jayce, who was weighing him down against the mattress with a comfortably even pressure, always so careful around his hipbone - even though it must have been straining to perch that way. Jayce, trusting him enough to hand him the reins, both literally and metaphorically, and press against him in the near-darkness. Jayce, who had cried after being given proof of Viktor's commitment, and did not even think to deny the fact when teased about it, still wholly unashamed and giddy. Jayce, tonight, with his face buried in Viktor's neck, hard against his hip, flushed and soft-spoken.
I love you.
The words were on his lips, as he stared at the tiled ceiling with Jayce in his arms, breathing against him.
I love you so much I think my heart might burst.

Me [28M] with my roommate of 1 year [31M], I'm worried I might be homophobic towards him? by ivypool

Summary
"So this whole roommate thing. I just wanted to ask, like… what are you looking for? Should I totally leave you alone?” (God, please say no.) “Should we just be, like, cordial coworkers?” (Please, please, please say no.) “Or do you want to be more like… friends?”
Viktor snorted. It was a sound Jayce was starting to crave. His heart squeezed.
“Yes, Jayce.” Viktor stood, leaning on his cane. “I think we should be friends."
(or: the one where jayce can't figure out why he cares so much about the guys his new roommate brings home... and doesn't realize he's fallen in love until he's completely and totally fucked.)

“I don’t even know your name.”
“It’s Viktor.” The slighter man tilts his head towards the daemon beside him. “And this is Lenka.”
Kyra falls a little bit in love with Lenka at that moment. It will take Jayce much longer to realize he’s done the same with Viktor, but that’s okay. She was used to waiting for her human to catch up to her.

Summary
“I’ve been bringing my flock over these hills for years,” Steve offers. “It’s nice, this close to Hallow’s Eve, around here. The apples,” he gestures towards the stranger with one of them, and takes a big bite. “The leaves changing color,” he says, spitting bits of apple inelegantly into the fire. They pop and sizzle when they hit the flames, briefly filling the air with a spiced, earthy smell.
“This close?” The stranger looks at him, eyebrows raised. He’s got such an expressive face, Steve almost wants to seize him by the cheeks and see how he can stretch it, press it, what shapes it might make in his hands. “How close?”
“To Hallow’s Eve?” Steve loses track of days out here, so he has to retrace the last few sunsets, how many of them have passed since he last waved goodbye to Robin as he brought out the flock. “I don’t know… a week? Little less?”
“That soon,” the man says quietly. Stares into the fire, expressive face gone still. “Almost out of time.”

Summary
Steve leans forward quickly, wrapping a hand around Eddie’s gloved wrist. Eddie’s visor snaps around immediately, opaque black viewport trained intensely on Steve’s hand. He doesn’t let go. Kind of impressed with his own bravery, instead, he gives Eddie’s wrist a squeeze.
“Sit down for a second,” he says. Like this is no big deal. Like he makes a habit of putting his hands on a Mandalorian, like he’s used to the way the bones of Eddie’s wrist feel vulnerable and slight in his hand, a reminder that under all that matte-black armor, Steve suspects he’s actually kind of a wiry type.
Steve’s been suspecting about that kind of stuff a lot. What started as a few idle thoughts watching Eddie and Dustin drill in the little scrubland yard behind his hut have become a lot, uh. More persistent. It’s starting to become a problem.

Summary
“If you could see one person one more time before the big bad Ruskies obliterate us,” Robin giggles, “who would it be?”
Steve has been feeling so wonderfully unabashedly honest for these last few minutes or months or however long they’ve been here, tied together in their Scoops uniforms and possibly dying from beating-induced brain hemorrhages or Russian poison that he says, without hesitating, “Jonathan Byers. And I’d give him a big ole kiss.”

Summary
Steve gets hired on the spot. Because why shouldn’t he, he brought a printed resume and had the foresight to dress nicely. Which, according to his new boss, Keith, is a pleasant change from the usual applicants who show up in ripped jeans and demonic t-shirts. The look on his face and the specificity of his words tells Steve that this really happened.
“That’s crazy,” Steve says with a commiserating sort of chuckle, because his dad raised a schmoozer. “Hope he wore something better to the next interview.”
“Oh, no,” Keith says offhandedly. “I hired him.”

Summary
Eddie imagines that Steve Harrington probably thinks that he is real hot shit. On top of being a rich prom king, he is also an eroptomancer. A love seer. A soulseer, some people call them – someone able to see the weird magic that connects people in a predestined shit storm of a craps game. He probably thinks he’s real goddamn special. One in a million special.
It’s actually closer to one in five million, but who’s counting?
