    Summary

    It was cold in the Place; cold and bright. The lights were harsh, so much so that if Newt looked near one, it almost burned. Not that he could see much anyway; his glasses were gone, his vision painfully blurry, like he was ten years old and glasses-less again. The bridge of his nose was uncomfortably chilled, absent of the familiar weight of his classic Geiszlerian nerd-chic specs. It was mildly awful; he had a headache, and even worse, he was stuck in some kind of chair, arms and legs firmly cuffed to it. He couldn’t move his wrists, and they hurt; at one point he must have rubbed them raw on accident. His left arm was stretched over a much higher elongated arm of the chair, and an IV was stuck into his elbow. Little raised cigarette-burn-like marks were dotted around the vein, as if the IV had been violently yanked out multiple times.

    So there's a word for it, a name for the state of mind that generates the thought, "What would happen if I drifted with a kaiju?" and without any further consideration, punches the Fuck It Let's Go Button.

    Summary

    Hermann hated his new lab partner. The man was rude, dismissive, nasty and just overall a piece of work. Plus, he treated his husband Newton like absolute garbage.

    Hermann wants to change that.

    Summary

    'Hermann is looking awkward, with his left hand behind his back. Newt turns to him fully and can't help a wide smile. Jesus, Hermann still looks and sounds so silly when he makes up big sentences from big words.

    In a second hovewer, his brain reminds him that he can't be feeling that small sparkling happiness over simple things. Scratch that, can't be feeling happy at all.'

    Or, the fic where Newt is proven wrong

    Summary

    “You’ve always been sensitive. Even when you were little. You always wanted to be picked up and held.”
    Hermann felt a stab of sympathy for his infant self, the sobbing two-year-old with arms held out like a starfish, only to be shooed away with a wave or the nudge of a boot. He wanted desperately to protect him.
    “I don’t see why that’s such a terrible thing,” he said. “A child needs love, affection. It’s normal, for a child."

    -

    One year after the closure of the breach, Hermann makes arrangements for conversation with his sister in Munich.

    Summary

    "They save the world, and then half an hour later, the world ends anyway.

    "It ends the second that Hermann suddenly grabs at Newt’s shoulder and says, 'Newton-' in a peculiar, choked voice. Newt looks up at him, startled, suddenly afraid, and across the Drift that he didn’t realize was still open, a flash of pain comes. Hermann croaks, 'I don’t feel right.'

    Then his eyes roll back in his head and he collapses to the floor."

    The Drift has serious effects on Hermann. Newt must race to find a way to save him while there is still time.

    Summary

    Here’s the thing: Charlie knows he’s dumb. He’s known it since he saw the pinched look on his mother’s face at his first parent-teacher conference. But Dee was incapable of learning that Dennis and Mac would never care about her, and Mac still seemed to believe that he was a master of karate, so maybe he wasn’t so out of place.

    Maybe it was time to learn.

    Summary

    Occasionally, when neither Charlie nor Dennis can sleep, they'll meet up for coffee or for breakfast, or to drive around until the rest of the world starts to wake up again. They never talk about why they're there, why they can't sleep, or why they have nightmares. That's the first (unspoken) rule on mornings like these: Don't talk about it. Don't talk about why you're here.

    On this particular morning, Charlie breaks that rule.

    Summary

    Charlie's in hospital again. Lost in rituals, intrusive thoughts and compulsions; he's hurt himself in a delusional attempt to save his own life. Mac comes to visit. Of course he does.

    ***

    One, two, three. Straighten the yoghurt pot on the hospital table. One, two, three. Pick at the bandages on his left hand. One, two, three. Check his phone screen for messages from Mac.

    No Mac still. No Mac, even though he should've been here five minutes ago, and his hand hurts like a bitch. One, two, three. Itch the hair on his face with his scraggy nails. Where is he? All sorts of things can happen in five minutes. There's ghouls out there after all; maybe one of them has stolen Mac. That would suck. Maybe he's been hit by a car on the way. That would suck too, but considerably more so than a kidnapping by ghoul. Car accidents are ugly and messy. Bones and blood and entrails, skin peeling in places it shouldn't, bodies inside out. Grazes. Yellow and green. Why are things yellow and green? It should all be red. Is Mac dead? Mac's fucking dead. One, two, three. Check the screen of his phone, but this time with shaking hands.

    "Why would I want to keep him?" He manages to make it sound derisory, but he can't stop his gaze skittering away from Wilson's open face.

    "You're sure?"

    House scoffs and forces himself to reach for Hector's leash and hand it over, and just like that, Wilson's walking out of his office with Hector in tow, limping along on his right exactly where House usually is.

    Halfway down the hall, Hector looks back at him, eyes huge and brown and reproachful.

    "Wilson." He pushes the words out of his throat. "Wait."

    What if, before the murders on the subway, and the nightmares that follow, and the blood dripping from Arthur's fingers, before all of this madness that turned him from Arthur to Joker... what if there is a phone call?

    Wilson did not care for how the infarction had robbed House of many pleasures in life, nor how the Vicodin had joined in to cripple him still further. There was, however, a single, significant upside to the whole hearing loss situation.
