    Summary

    “I’m Nathaniel. Wesninski,” he added, because Andrew shouldn't know him yet. Nathaniel had been careful to keep out of the press. “And this is Kevin Day. We’re here to recruit you for the Edgar Allan Ravens.”

    (in which Nathaniel is a Raven, and Andrew is his apathetic goalie of choice)

    Summary

    Nathaniel gasps out his breaths as he runs. There’s a stitch in his side that’s so painful he feels nauseous. He’s been running for so long. He has no clue where he is, just that he must keep running. It was the last thing his mom screamed at him before she…

    No. He can’t think about that. He can’t remember the sight of a clawed hand puncturing her chest. Can’t let himself smell the hot metallic blood that splashed over his face. All he can focus on is the last choked scream of his mom telling him to run.

    Summary

    If there were three things that Neil would say his mother drilled into him from his time on the run, it would be these:
    1 – Never stay in the same place for more than six months.
    2 – Never let someone in.
    3 – Whatever you do, never, ever, go to the hospital.

    *****
    Neil Josten, Cardiac Surgeon, has always bounced from hospital to hospital, too volatile, until he gets invited (strongarmed) by David Wymack to join the ragtag team that makes up St Anthony’s Hospital. Everything is going swimmingly until he starts to experience some heart problems. Isn’t it weird how symptoms only appear when a certain pediatric surgeon is around?

    tldr: Neil is a cardiac surgeon and thinks his crush on Andrew is a heart condition.

    VERY SLOW UPDATES!!! HAVE LOW EXPECTATIONS BUT MORE CHAPTERS TO COME!!!

    Summary

    “Kid, calm down… it's okay.” Stanley said, his voice low and calming, rumbling against Senku's frame. Senku shuddered violently.

    “It's- not..” Senku sniffled. His breath shuttered his entire chest. “Didn't you- didn't you see? Katsumi-san-”

    The hand stopped petting him. Senku felt his chest heave with emotion and agony.

    “... you're smart. Me and Xe’ both know that.” The man said carefully. “...Kid, understand this, please…” Senku's heart stuttered, and he sobbed into the man's chest-

    “Xeno's protecting you.” Stanley's hand put a grounding pressure on his spine. “...He's protecting you,” Stanley held him closer. “Okay?”

    Senku’s heart shattered like a glass balloon.

    ...

    (or, Senku was targeted by bad people for his intelligence. There was only so much his old man, Xeno, and his husband Stanley could do- but trauma doesn't just go away, especially when Senku chronically represses all of his bad memories.)

    (The kingdom of Science is there for him when he remembers.)

    Summary

    The Foxes are excited to plan a team bonding trip to the beach; a fun weekend in the sun and a welcome break from school and Exy.

    Neil learns how quickly memories of the past can catch up to you and how hard it can be to voice them. Nothing about the beach has ever been good for him.
