Summary
coda (n.): in music, a passage that brings a piece (or a movement) to an end
Ava Silva has everything she’s ever wanted. Her dream job designing lights for the Royal Ballet. An apartment bigger than a shoebox. A city to explore full of sexy accents and taxis that are all (yes, ALL) equipped with ramps.
Beatrice Young has everything she’s ever wanted. A coveted spot as one of the youngest ever principal dancers at the Royal Ballet. The role of a lifetime. A routine that makes it so that she never has to worry about what happens next.
It’s funny how quickly things change.

Summary
Rising indie-pop band HALO is on its second tour, and Beatrice Young has a massive crush on lead singer Ava Silva. This is all fine and good (the internet says get in line), but being her bandmate and best friend does make things a lot more complicated.

Summary
Vi is the first known escapee from Zaun, a highly secretive cult led by a madman named Silco. Stuck in FBI custody, she has two choices: go into witness protection or be charged with the murders she committed and doom the sister she left behind. It’s an easy choice, one that leaves her with the unshakeable Agent Kiramman as her government-assigned babysitter.
It turns out that suburbia comes with a weapon safe.

Summary
Time stops when the rocket shatters the window of the council’s meeting room.
Vi’s eyes widen, tugging at a cut above her eyebrow, only able to stare as the glow of the rocket fuel sends glass shards spilling across the sky like stars. Caitlyn screams beside her, knees buckling, tugging them both to the ground with Vi’s arm around her waist. The sound delay is less than a second, but it feels like an eternity between the burst of flames and the deafening roar of the building’s collapse.
Powder. Vi tears her eyes from the wreckage to spot a girl standing just on the outskirts of Zaun. What have you done?

Summary
[Cold open begins: Eddie Kasprak is alone in a tunnel, seemingly from the segment where they explore separately. His face is lit up green from the night vision camera, and we cannot see anything past his terrified expression. A splash sounds and echoes through the enclosed space.]
Eddie Kaspbrak [shouting behind him, likely referring to Richie]: FUCK YOU, DICKWAD. LET ME HAVE ONE RUN WITHOUT YOU DOING SOME SHIT TO FREAK ME OUT.
[Cut to Richie Tozier, calmly sitting on a large rock a couple yards away from the mouth of the tunnel.]
Richie Tozier: [laughs] Aww, Spaghetti is probably losing his mind in there.
[Cut back to Eddie, still terrified. Another splash sounds, louder and possibly closer.]
EK: Rich, you better not be fucking with me.
[He looks past the camera and suddenly goes pale. The camera shakes as he seems to stumble backwards.]
EK: HOLY SHIT WHAT IS THAT???????

Summary
Richie Tozier has never understood the appeal of the stars. It’s empty space out there, with no air, no sound, and no warmth. It’s much more interesting on the ground. But somehow, laying in a truck bed with Eddie Kaspbrak makes the sky worth watching.

Summary
“Buck?” Steve appears in the doorway to the kitchen, half propped against the wall, voice heavy with sleep. “What’re you doin up?”
Bucky only shrugs, pouring himself yet another cup of coffee. What’s he supposed to say? 'Hey, guess what? I can’t stand to close my eyes anymore because every time I blink, suddenly I’m in cryosleep and losing even more time where I could be coming back to whoever I’m supposed to be. I close my eyes and it’s just cold, empty, nothing.'?
“Couldn’t sleep,” he says instead. “You?”

Summary
“Remember,” Bee reminds them as they approach their neighbor’s house, “Abby and David adopted Neil only a month ago, so this is his first time meeting some new friends. He’s only a year younger than you. Be nice, okay? And don’t push too much if he’s shy. If you don’t know if he’ll be okay with a hug or something like that, just ask him yes or no first.”
“Okay,” the twins chorus back, before sprinting towards the door in hopes of pressing the doorbell first.
(Aaron wins, but it’s a close thing.)
“Well hello, kiddos!” Abby answers the door with a grin. “David! Kevin! Neil! The Dobsons are here!”

Summary
“Yes, milady,” he nods, hoping that the playful title would suffice for whoever this young woman is.
“Don’t call me milady,” the woman frowns. Apparently not. “My name is Arya, and I’m here to see Cersei Lannister. My family’s corporation is considering a business deal with Iron Throne Enterprises.”
“I’m afraid she’s busy mila-” Gendry cuts himself off before the title slips, but it doesn’t go unnoticed.
“Well I’m afraid, Mr. Baratheon,” Arya replies, with slightly more bite to her words, seeming to relish in the jolt of surprise in Gendry’s eyes when she calls him by his last name. A name he certainly hadn’t told her. “I have an urgent matter to discuss with Ms. Lannister.”
“I can pass a message along?”
Gendry nearly pinches himself to make sure he’s awake, because there’s absolutely no way that he’s watching the steam and ashes of the forge condense into a coronet over Arya’s head.
“Tell her,” she says, her eyes flashing and her voice ringing with an echo that should be impossible for a space this large, “That the price of heaven will pay for her voyage to hell.” -

Summary
Neil Josten and Andrew Minyard have always been inevitable. But what if they found each other just a little sooner?
(Andrew never met Neil until their time, but Abram Davis haunts them both.)

Summary
For as long as he can remember, Bucky has spent his waking moments with Steve’s handwriting on his skin. It’s just something they’ve always shared with each other. Nowadays, Bucky’s left-handedness restricts him to his own right arm, but Steve, lucky bastard, covers both of his arms with sleeves of sketches and curved script.
Ambidextrous. It’s a skill that Bucky doesn’t bother to learn, and refuses to try. Steve should have something to himself. After all, Bucky’s left arm is perfectly good. Why would he need to use the other? -

Summary
“Alright, I’m just going to say this straight out. We found Riko Moriyama’s phone.”
“Okay.” all the laughter has faded from Jeremy’s voice, “What about it?”
“There’s some… messages… that we found. And we thought it would be best to give them to you. Kevin should have emailed you the audio files we extracted just now, and you can give them a listen.”
“Messages? What? Neil, what aren’t you telling me?”
“They’re… fairly recent. From within the last year. And… they’re from Jean.” -

Summary
Maybe some part of his subconscious will always long for the wild gray-eyed boy that smelled of leather and cigarette smoke. Maybe Sirius in turn yearns for the lanky freckle-faced boy whose every word overflowed with mischief. If that’s the case, what kind of consolation prize is a melancholic professor whose defining trait is the ability to tear himself apart on a whim?
Selfishly, Remus loves him still.
Inspired by Run Away by Ben Platt
