Summary
The boy on the banner looked down at him with eyes full of hatred and a golden laurel wreath on his head that had been gained with more blood than any other.
Whenever Seonghwa saw the image of the victor, there was nothing but the memory of that cruel smile as he had slit yet another child's throat. Deeply etched into Seonghwa's memory to forever haunt him.
And the knowledge that he could never bring himself to do what Kim Hongjoong had done.
Or: When Seonghwa gets reaped to compete in the Hunger Games, he is not only sent to an almost promised grave - he is also assigned to be mentored by the infamous Kim Hongjoong. The victor with the highest kill count in the history of the Hunger Games.

Summary
“You’re not actually nervous, are you?” Hongjoong asks. “You’ve done makeup in worse conditions. Remember the car ride to Incheon? No staff, zero lighting, potholes every five seconds.”
“That was survival,” Seonghwa replies without looking away from the mirror. “This is presentation.”
Hongjoong raises a brow. “Presentation?”
Seonghwa dips a finger into a pot of shimmer and gently taps it to the corner of his eye. “You made something for me. I want to do it justice.”
Hongjoong’s offer to design something custom for Seonghwa slowly unravels the threads holding their friendship in place.

Summary
Liam doesn’t think he hit his head on the way down, but the details leading up to their current predicament are a little hazy. He knows four things for sure.
1.) Theo had refused to explain what he was doing here when Liam asked, and had gone so far as to laugh when Liam suggested he was reverting back to his stalker-ish ways.
2.) Liam may have thrown the initial punch in their impromptu fistfight, but it was Theo who tackled him to the floor after both their noses got bloodied up.
3.) Theo had also been the one to connect their mouths.
4.) Theo isn’t wearing a shirt. Or shoes.
It’s all very confusing.
(alternatively: 16k words of liam having a crisis about why theo keeps kissing him and why he keeps kissing him back)

Summary
Stiles held both hands out. “She loves it here!”
“Probably because we treat her right,” Boyd insisted, giving him a look.
“Again, not my fault,” Stiles argued. “But I will let you berate me to your heart’s content as long as you help fix her so she doesn’t leave me stranded in the boonies.”
“This whole fucking town is the God damn boonies,” Derek said angrily. Stiles wondered if he had any other settings.
So far he’d learned confusion and anger. He hoped there was a happy setting in there somewhere.
Boyd’s gaze cut briefly to Derek, then back to Stiles. “I see you’ve met Derek.”
“Oh yeah. We are now very close friends,” Stiles said, turning to grin at the Alpha.
He didn’t look impressed. Also like he was trying to figure out which parts of Stiles were the squishiest and easiest to eat through. That was concerning, he didn’t like that.

Summary
Not wanting to think on it too much, Stiles took a step forward and passed his hand between the bars, moving the bleeding side closer to Derek’s mouth.
“Not too close, he bites.”
Stiles snatched his hand away just as Derek had been about to lick at it. The snarl he got in response was not comforting.
“He what?” Stiles asked nervously, turning to Deaton.
The man looked a little amused. “Don’t worry, only if he doesn’t like you.”
“Well, he probably hates me, now!” Stiles insisted, turning back to Derek.
He looked extremely displeased.

A drag queen and a cop walk into an apartment building... by DropsOfAddiction

Summary
Stiles tries not to whimper as Derek gets closer. Stiles had forgotten just how intense space invader Derek could be.
If Derek was boner inducing when Stiles knew him before, equal parts terrifying and sexy, back at the age of twenty four, well... it’s not a patch on what thirty year old Derek’s got going for him.
Derek’s still got a stupid leather jacket and his black hair is slightly longer than Stiles remembers. The stubble is longer too, not quite a beard but still neatly shaped in a way that makes his cheekbones stand out.
And the eyes, shit, the eyes. He’s staring at Stiles with this stormy mix of grey, blue and about a thousand other colours thrown in and Stiles couldn’t break eye contact if he wanted to.
Derek fucking Hale, ladies and gentlemen.

Summary
The war was over.
Or at least that’s what the papers said.
They’d been saying it, for months, as if people needed reminding.
Maybe they did.
***
In which Harry and Draco both run away from their pasts and conveniently choose to hide in the same tiny American town.
It's super.

Summary
Wylan Van Eck signs up as a math tutor for a simple reason: to escape his oppressive home for an extra hour each day. Anything is better than staying there, even dealing with unrequited feelings for a student who hates him.
Jesper Fahey, who would rather have a good time than study, sees no need for a tutor--especially not a rich brat who panics at the slightest hint of flirtation.
But when Jesper reluctantly agrees to endure two weeks of tutoring, neither of them is prepared for how it will change their lives.

Summary
Catra had imagined lots of scenarios for her first bus ride to school. Annoying people screaming on the seats around of her, getting kicked out by the bus driver for punching a random guy (wouldn’t be the first time), or whatever other torture school buses could provide.
She never imagined she’d be listening to Taylor Swift and sharing earphones with a complete stranger. A very cute stranger. And nothing felt weird or awkward., like if Adora and Catra had known each other for a long time already. Maybe the universe wasn’t so mean after all.
or
Catra likes to pretend she's too cool to have feelings.

Summary
The two of them have never gotten along, not even for a second since they met, and they are, as far as Wonwoo is concerned, sworn enemies.
So, you can imagine Wonwoo’s surprise when, on a regular Wednesday morning, Wonwoo is making a cup of tea in the office break room and the door slams open against the wall and a heaving, sweaty, panicked Mingyu busts through the doorway and shouts, “YOU NEED TO COME WITH ME RIGHT NOW AND PRETEND TO BE MY BOYFRIEND.”

Summary
Love at first sight, Mark discovers, is difficult when it's with a boy he's supposed to hate.
It is especially difficult when a hidden danger strikes from the shadows, threatening to tear their city to pieces and all they hold dear, and even more so when they discover they may be the only ones that can stop it.
(alternatively: civil blood makes civil hands unclean, and the vampire loves the witch anyway.)
