    Summary

    Thomas is looking for his family. Two mysterious boys named Minho and Newt find him instead

    Or; It was odd, sometimes, and more than a little bit claustrophobic, living like they did. On a planet full of ghosts.

    Summary

    At some point during their search of the party they stumble upon a girl whose shirt shifted and changed, the embroidered flower pattern blooming and wilting in a continuous loop. They’re both slightly mesmerized. Newt leans over, lips so close that they brush against the shell of his ear. “I don’t think we’re in Kansas anymore Tommy.” A sunflower petal drifted down the girl’s arm.

    “It’s ‘feeling’.” Thomas rasps out, heart jackhammering, watching the living shirt grow and decay all over again.

    Newt quirks his scarred eyebrow indulgently. “What?”

    Thomas turns, their faces inches apart and trying to keep his voice even. “It’s ‘feeling’. The line. People always say it wrong. It’s ‘Toto, I’ve a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore.’ People always…they always get that one wrong.”

    Newt’s playful smile shifts into something teasing and, yes, dangerous. Maybe just a bit beautiful as well.

    (Or; In between glowing screens with promises about his future and cracked pavement that spilled his memories, for one summer, Thomas floats.)

    Summary

    It's something Thomas did with his friends as a kid, when everything was simpler, before college flung them apart. It started when they were twelve, or something like that, when they were still elementary aged but just barely. They all wrote down a resolution and put it in a beer bottle Minho had nicked from his parents recycle bin and promised to smash it the next year and see if anyone had been successful. None of them were, and they had too much fun laughing about all of their failed attempts to be better.

    Now Thomas's best friends are acting strange, and Newt's keeping something from him. New Years Eve fluff.
