Summary
“So you still wanna fuck him,” Daniel said. “Why are you telling me? Just go for it.”
“I don’t want to fuck him,” Louis said.
“Right, I forgot. You don’t wanna fuck him, you wanna date him – you wanna make sweet tender love to him, and renew your vampiric vows. Maybe this time around, you can be the one putting your fist through some poor priest’s head.”
Lestat discovers the wonders of the internet. Louis discovers that, eighty years later, he's still just as normal about Lestat as he has ever been.

Summary
Whatever carefully blank expression Lestat is trying on disappears like a slap. “Armand made a fledgling. Why would he do that?” Lestat asks.
“Oh, you know,” Louis says, watching the three dots of a new text pop up. “He knew Daniel was… important to me.”
He means to say it with rueful annoyance, as if to say, “so he ruined him.” But as Daniel’s text comes in—the most important question I should have asked you in that fucking interview: where do you buy coke in Dubai?—Louis’s voice trails off, his words maybe lacking some of the bite.
or
Lestat misunderstands what Daniel is to Louis and tries to be a champ about it. Meanwhile Louis rediscovers his drug of choice—Lestat.

Summary
Michael took a hit off the joint. He didn’t really know how to do it and ended up coughing and gagging as the smoke stayed in his lungs too long, and all of the boys continued with their Greek chorus of jeers and laughter, except David. He moved around Michael like a shark, eyes never leaving him, boring into him actually, as if he could see the stuff he was made of.
“It gets easier,” was all he said through his pleasant smile. “The first time is always the hardest.”Bookmarked by driftingunderpressure

Summary
Pulling the sheet to her, Agatha gets up, draws a hand through her hair. “Get up,” she says, loudly.
The woman – Rio, if Agatha remembers correctly, Jesus fucking Christ – only mumbles something in response and turns over, away from the noise. On her back, right below her neck, the black tendrils of a tattoo spiral across her shoulder blades.
Agatha’s too fucking old for this. “Get up,” she repeats. She’s been teaching for over twenty years; she knows how to make her voice carry in a room.

Summary
"Hair tied back in a loose bun, Corroded Coffin shirt fitted and cropped at the hem, and sporting the tightest leather pants he'd ever seen in his life, was Eddie mother-fucking Munson, standing front and center on the shoddy wooden stage in front of him.
Steve’s jaw dropped, face paling with realization by the second.
It wasn’t some girl's ass he was ogling.
It was Eddie. He was checking out Eddie's ass.
Then he flushed, heat searing down to his toes. He was checking out Eddie's ass.
Fuck."
--
Or, When an impromptu trip to the Hideout has Steve questioning much more than his taste in music, he finds himself navigating the intricacies of summer, bisexuality, and, of course, Eddie Munson.
A shiny new rework of Rock My World, 3 years later!

Summary
“Rules. Like, there’ll be no eating in my car. You’re not driving my car. No heavy metal,” Steve keeps listing, “you’re not picking up women and fucking them in m-”
“I'll try to control myself,” Eddie interrupts with a quip, a smirk. Fucking girls in Steve’s car, or anywhere else for that matter, isn’t going to be an issue, unless something pretty fundamental shifts in him.
Steve continues, completely ignoring Eddie, “You’ll wipe your feet. You’re not dragging dirt all over my car. No hitchhikers. No cutesy road games. No smoking in the car. I’m not paying for all the gas.”
“Ass, gas or grass, got it,” Eddie says, like he's taking this very seriously. He is not taking this seriously.
Or: Road trip!

Summary
“Almost there!” Steve yells.
He’s a few yards ahead of them, still lighting up the path and pushing low hanging branches out of the way.
“He’s a good guy, you know,” Robin says as if she can sense his hesitance. “I know what he was like in high school, but he’s different now.”
“Sure.” Eddie doesn’t know what else to say.
“Surprisingly progressive.” Robin lowers her voice so Steve can’t hear her. “Really accepting of a lot of things.”
Eddie frowns. He can’t see Robin’s expression in the dark, but he sure wishes he could.
Eddie opens up to Robin and Steve after the dust of their latest misadventure in the Upside Down has settled. Him and Robin get on like a house on fire and Steve proves to be surprisingly understanding of his ever growing anxiety. Part of him still can’t believe he was so wrong about Steve. Hell, he’s even completely cool with the fact that Robin’s a lesbian.
Now he just has to keep his own stupid feelings in check. Because as flirty as Steve may seem, he is definitely straight. One hundred percent.
Or; Eddie is oblivious, Steve is definitely flirting and Robin is losing her mind.

Summary
Steve jerks awake, sitting up so quickly that Robin almost topples over and staring wildly around the room. When his gaze lands on Eddie, he blanches visibly.
“Oh, shit,” he mutters. “Come on, no. Come on. Not again.”
“Harrington?” Eddie asks slowly. He does not love the way that Steve is staring at him right now. He really doesn’t. Steve looks like he’s staring at a ghost, a bloodied monster, like Eddie is something that should not exist in the light of day. “You good, dude?”

Summary
Rio Vidal is the best attacking midfielder women's soccer has seen in a decade—maybe ever. But after leading the Irish National Team to their first World Cup trophy, she abruptly and mysteriously leaves the NWSL to play for Barcelona.
She returns three years later, joining a new club midway through their first season. There are a few stars on the team already, like Jen Kale and Alice Wu-Gulliver.
And, of course, Agatha Harkness, the USWNT's lead striker and Rio’s ex-something.
***
This is a fic about love, and grief, and missed opportunities and misunderstandings. It starts in the present day, jumps back to the past, then works its way back to the present. Soccer is the setting; the characters are the story.
