Summary
The first thing Hawkeye does when he gets home is hug his dad. The second thing he does is fall asleep on the living room couch, the scuffed-up corduroy number they’ve had since he was in elementary school, for sixteen hours.

"Colonel Potter!" He shouted as he reached the bottom of the hill. "Somebody! Help!" His fingers briefly squeezed Hawkeye reassuringly. "Don't worry, Hawk. It's gonna be okay."
Hawkeye made a pained noise, but BJ couldn't tell if it was in agreement or just involuntary.
"Colonel Potter!"

Summary
“Oh, here’s one. We must not look at goblin men, we must not wear their suits. For even if the stripes are pin, I could not give two hoots.”
B.J. laughed softly, then quieted as he went in with a pair of graspers for a piece of metal. When he had pulled it out and dropped it into the bowl with a satisfying clang, he sent the ball back into Hawk’s court.
“Oh, my love is like a bloody nose, newly sprung in June.”
“Who’s that?” Hawkeye asked.
“Robert Burns. No relation to Frank, of course.”

B.J. learns a lot about Hawkeye the first day they meet. One thing that keeps coming up is their shared passion for poetry. It’s nice to have someone to trade verses with.Bookmarked by PacificSiren

Summary
Years. Broken into months into weeks into days—into hours, minutes, seconds—into moments. Simple at one end, complex at the other. In Draco’s experience, moments, even when simple, had a habit of becoming irretrievable. Moments grew, stretched, multiplied into ages and eras that defined whole stretches of measurable time. Draco regretted several moments in his life, some within his control, some without: all of them irretrievable in nature. At a certain point, wedged between ‘what-ifs’ of his own devising, he’d stopped trying to keep track of those regrettable moments: now and then, pushing and pulling, coming and going, beginning and end. Moments were only moments for just as long. After that, he had no control.
[In which Draco is forced to work with Hermione, falls in love, makes many mistakes, and eventually becomes his own man. A Draco POV prequel to Wait and Hope.]
