Summary
“He made you for me? To be with me?”
“Yes,” says the Corinthian, and suddenly he’s right in front of her, clasping her hands between his, the vodka bottle excruciatingly cold compared to his warmth. “Exactly. Jo, you never have to be alone again. You never have to hurt a person, or have them leave you, or die. You never have to suffer again. You get to be loved every day for the rest of your life by someone who can’t get hurt, can’t die, and won’t hurt you. Isn’t that beautiful? Just love, forever.”
“And that’s what you want?”
The Corinthian smiles, with all three mouths. “Of course,” he says. “It’s what I was made for.”

Summary
“Now,” Bert claps his hands together. “It’s tradition that any newbies share their stories first. Stranger, you willing?”
The Corinthian affects surprise, his fingertips pressed questioningly against his chest. “Who, me? Well… I suppose I could talk a little.”
“Introduce yourself to the group,” Bert encourages. “Nobody bites, I promise.”
“What, not even a little?” says the Corinthian.

Summary
Max is sobbing, one hand in Chloe’s and one holding that damned photo. Her hair is plastered to her head like a drowned rat, but she’s still the most beautiful person Chloe’s ever known. Tied with Rachel, of course. But Rachel’s gone, and Max is here, and Chloe’s stuck between the two of them.

Summary
Derek wants to say that he’s stopped hoping for some savior to swoop in and beat the shit out of Carl, because that’s stupid and childish and he ain’t a kid anymore. He’s the man of the house now, and he’s gotta get his shit together so that he can look after his mama and the girls. But even though he knows that, and he knows he ain’t got time to daydream about the cops swooping in and arresting that son of a bitch, because it’ll never happen-
Despite that, sometimes he still imagines it. Imagines Carl’s face when they kick the door of the cabin down and tell him he’s under arrest, and maybe he resists; maybe they have to rough him up a little and leave him bleeding, the way he leaves Derek bleeding. And maybe Carl starts crying, and he gets to echo Carl’s words back at him: man up, boy. Crying ain’t gonna stop anything.

Summary
Dean wakes up slow.
He’s still in the car; he knows that straight off just by the smell of her, the feel of her against his back and thighs. She’s still sleeping, her engine quiet, and the sky is still mostly dark, starting to get orange-yellow at the edges with the upcoming sunrise. For a moment he’s not sure why he’s awake.

Summary
They tell him to get some sleep, so he heads into the washroom to freshen up as much as he can, with cold water and cheap soap. Sam offers the use of his toothbrush, and Jimmy accepts. He’s had a fucking angel inside him. Toothbrush cooties, as Claire used to call them, aren’t even on his radar anymore. He wonders if she still calls them that. He wonders if she still thinks about him. He wonders if she remembers how much he loves her.

Death by Kittenshark by howldax
Fandoms: Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency (TV 2016)

Summary
"You know," Dirk says sternly, "if you murder me, there will be nobody around to feed you."
Todd realises that he must be talking to the shark-kitten, who lives with them now - Dirk is attached - and has taken to the very cat-like habit of tripping them both up at every moment she can. She comes into view, winding her way between Dirk's legs and meowing, and Dirk points a loving but accusatory finger at her.
"No, no. Todd will not feed you either, if I die. He will be catatonic with grief over my untimely passing, and you will have to fend for yourself in the wide world."

Summary
So maybe Todd's perception of regular-weird is a little distorted, post-Dirk. Everything changed when Dirk came into his life.
