    Summary

    "Jacob never made it a habit to look into people's eyes. Since his first shift he's always been nervous of Imprinting on someone, on anyone; it didn't matter if they were a friend or a stranger. He was just too young, he felt, to reasonably be confident being one part of a whole soul. He barely felt confident being himself most days.

    So, he avoided eye contact. Easy enough most days. People usually don't even notice; and the few who did just thought it was a new, harmless little quirk, though odd. He could live with that, especially with him not going to public school and such. Billy hated that he purposely avoided finding his Imprint but honestly, he's only 17."

     

    The age old fanfic trope of 'Jacob Imprints on Edward' and treated seriously. The timeline of it all is fudged so I could have fun.

    Summary

    “Oh, Nicky this, Nicky that. Why, Jay, you almost sound obsessed with my dear cousin!” Daisy’s laugh sparkled on her lips.
    Obsessed was a crass word. Too heavy and vulgar for his feelings for Nick, Gatsby decided. Nick was captivating.

    A remark from Daisy leaves Gatsby struggling to name his feelings for Nick.

    Summary

    History remembers the Dance of the Dragons. It forgets the whispers: of moths at flame, of a sister who spoke in riddles, of a brother who listened too closely. The dragon has three heads, doesn't it?

    Summary

    “No, no, just…” Colin coughed and redirected his stare to the ground. The tips of his ears were red. “You remember during stat poker? You, um… you know, told me to ‘suck it.’”
    That was nothing out of the ordinary. “As I do, bruv.”
    “As you do. But do you remember the part where I said "only if you buy me dinner first?”
    He did. And he remembered buying Colin dinner—
    Oh. Oh, no. Colin thought…
    Isaac frowned. "Nah, bruv, that was just a joke. I say that to everyone, y'know?"
    That was meant to be reassuring, but if anything, Colin squirmed more.

    "I know you were joking, but…" Colin hesitated before pulling his head up to meet Isaac's eyes. "What if I wasn't?
