painting, or how to escape the weight of love by hollow_sunset
Fandoms: The Summer I Turned Pretty (TV 2022)

Summary
What is art if not love?
The paintings in the family room, that wait like guardians for someone with sanity to return, are love. Of a mother for her children, even those that aren’t hers by blood. For all of them. Each brush stroke, each composition of colour and form, of image and meaning.
That is love.
- Susannah paints. Always. For the people she loves, for the things she can never say.

delicate and sweet, and compelling proof that this show would be a whole lot better if it was about the moms.

The Freudian Significance of a Cherry Tomato by rallamajoop for sillylittlehat
Fandoms: Catch-22 - Joseph Heller

Summary
"Didn't you know you were naked?" asked the chaplain, who was confused all over again.
"I hadn't given it much thought," said the man in the tree who was probably Yossarian. "But then, I've been avoiding fruit on account of my liver, so I haven't eaten any of these." He proffered a juicy, red fruit that the chaplain recognised, to some alarm, as a cherry tomato of much the same species that he'd been so cruelly accused of stealing from Colonel Cathcart's office, even by Colonel Cathcart, who had been the one to insist he take it in the first place. "Want one?"

Bookmarker's Notes
"The chaplain found himself badly needing to sit down, which was particularly unfortunate because he was sitting down already, and it didn't seem to be helping." Worthy of Heller himself, man this book is so great and this fic really does it justice. That Yossarian!

Summary
Vernon stared at him for a long moment. He turned his face up to the ceiling. "I count one- two- three-" His mouth moved silently. "Fifteen more Saturdays. Plus the one you still owe me."
Bender made a noise that maybe sounded like a laugh, and felt like rage. "Whatever," he tried to say.

Summary
Peter Three is rolling Max’s device between his palms. “You know earlier when you asked me if I had someone and I said no?” he interrupts. “I uh, I wasn’t exactly telling the truth. It’s just – really complicated?”
And Peter Two says, “We can make time,” like they’re not currently trying to stop the fabric of reality from splitting.

when understanding the story better than the writers gets turned into something breathtaking.

Summary
He felt listless, strange. Like he should have told Eduardo, sure, okay. Let’s go. It was the alcohol making him think that way, he knew. It was the kind of attraction-addled thinking that he understood was not to be trusted - that he was, annoyingly, just as susceptible to as the next college student. That wasn’t a person he was willing to be.

This is sad and wonderful and intimate and such a beautiful read on the characters. "The way he felt about Eduardo was something he was becoming more and more certain he couldn’t forgive him for." Like, dude. How are you making me feel for the facebook billionaires.

'cause I can't compete with your boyfriend (he's got 27 tattoos) by Traincat

Summary
The thing was, Peter was stuck with Johnny forever, basically. The super glue of unintentional friendship. It was cosmic, fated, and incredibly annoying. Johnny Storm might have been a handbasket of bad decisions and personality defects wrapped up with an incredible smile, but he was Peter’s handbasket of bad decisions -- of which Daken was still the worst one Johnny had ever made, and Johnny had made some truly bad decisions.
--
Johnny dates Daken, Peter has a crisis, and everything works out okay in the end.

Screw New Year's. Screw Valentine's. Screw seventeenth birthdays. Screw Buddy Morgan and his stupid, sexy car (and his less stupid, equally as sexy turtleneck).
*think of this fic as episodes set towards the end of season one
