Summary
*Breakdown maintenance is a reactive maintenance strategy where repair or restoration of equipment is carried out only after it has failed or broken down.*
Mike and Eddie come together as adults and find comfort in each other and their "one that got away" situations... Then they decide to help each other get what they really want. Why should it be too late? During a camping trip when the gang reunites, they'll turn up the summer heat with sabotage and jealousy.
"And I hear you now when you said it hurt
But it had to fall, fall apart to work
As I see you now in what's left of me
Is it too late to plead insanity?
(I won't let go) 'cause I hate that it seemed you were never enough
Yeah, we're broken and bleeding in the name of love
And I hope that we meet in another life
I hope that we meet in another life
I don't hate that I need you (I don't hate that I need you)
I don't hate that I need you (I don't hate that I need you)
I don't hate that I need you."

Summary
Michael Wheeler is a pureblood vampire who ends up responsible for an unprecedented Witch/Vampire hybrid William Byers and his family. What happens when he becomes obsessed with him? When he falls in love with him? When he's willing to break the rules of the Undying Race to keep him safe? Can they get past the prejudice and fear rooted into the minds of the Tenebrous? If there is such a thing as "Happily Ever After" it should be attainable for the Immortal, right?

Summary
Both of their bodies shake as they catch their breath. Will’s still hard, and his sweat is starting to dry uncomfortably on his skin, but all he can focus on is Mike.
It’s times like these he’s reminded how lucky he is to have Mike in this way. To see this side of him, this side that still feels too new and too intimate and too overwhelming all at once. Sometimes, he thinks he might be bitter. Resentful of his lot in life, being so painfully in love with someone who will so obviously never feel the same way. On his bad days, he even thinks he might resent Mike.
Like this, though, he knows that could never be true. Not really. Sure, it hurts, only ever having Mike halfway, knowing his body but never his soul. Yes, it’s going to kill him when Mike inevitably finds someone new and runs off into the sunset, leaving him in the dust again.
But it’s Mike. He'll take whatever he can get.
When he and Mike end up in bed together after graduation, they fall into something dangerously easy. Or, at least, it would be easy, if it weren’t the most painful thing Will’s ever done.

Summary
Something happened between Mike and Will during winter break of ‘89, and they haven’t spoken in four years. When Mike moves to New York for grad school in 1993, he is finally starting to figure himself out, and he wants to fix things with Will. He has no idea where to begin, so he writes a play about it.
Will has been building a life for himself in NYC as a painter. He has a boyfriend, volunteers with an AIDS housing program, and pays his rent by acting in other people’s plays – including, as it turns out, Mike’s.
A story about the damage of being loved before you’re ready, and about trying to make your way back (with a little help along the way from your meddling older siblings).

Summary
“Do you seriously just let him control you like that all the time? You’re not his fucking dog, dude.”
Max calls it control.
Will calls it trust.Because it’s not just that Mike takes care of him.
It’s that Will starts to lean into it, he craves it.And when he realizes Mike needs it just as much, needs to be praised, to be relied on, to be everything… Will decides to stop resisting.
After all, if Mike wants to take care of him…
who is Will to say no?OR
After nearly a year of living together, Mike and Will somehow stumble into a full-blown dom/sub dynamic before they so much as kiss or admit they’re in love.

Summary
Simon didn’t expect his savior to be exactly his type.
What a welcome sight. Even if this stupidly handsome man ends up being evil, or working for the C.O.I, at least he’d die looking at something good.
or
Grace and Rocky find Simon's ship floating in deep space on their way to Erid.
UPDATE: This fic has been peer reviewed by a NASA engineer who has approved of the science!
