    Summary

    In 'Once Upon a Meddling Christmas' (the final oneshot in my 'Our Favourite Meddling Gays' series) Nick gifted Charlie 40 letters as his Christmas present.
    The first to be read the day Nick returns to Leeds in January.
    Then he could choose a letter to read each week.
    Right up until Charlie hopefully joins him up there in October.
    These are those letters...

    Summary

    Nick Nelson is fed up. With some encouragement from his beloved mum, he decides to head to Cornwall for the summer so he can reset and hopefully even cheer himself the fuck up. There, he meets Charlie Spring; sarcastic and self-assured and a little bit lost himself. It’s amazing what six weeks, near-constant rain and a little bit of opening up can do for you.

    or

    A love letter to Cornwall, to cosiness, and to love. Hopefully.

    Summary

    “Can I help you?”

    “Gosh I hope so,” Charlie blurted before he remembered where he was and that this friendly man was not flirting, but simply doing his job. He stepped forward to the desk. “Um. I have a 4:00 appointment.”

    Summary

    Charlie is a 23 year old living in a punk house in Portland, Oregon some time in the 2010s. He’s graduated from therapy, he’s got a great group of people in his life, he’s politically active, and he’s got a fantastic sense of fashion. And he refuses to let anyone dim his shine anymore, not after being forced back into the closet again and again by a series of horrible exes and an equally horrible mother. But what happens when heavily tattooed, chronically-single Charlie sees a clean cut all-American boy walk into a community organizing meeting who won’t stop looking at him with his kind hazel eyes?

    This story is noncanonical and a big departure from Heartstopper but equally as saccharine, albeit rougher around the edges. Many scenes are inspired directly by Heartstopper, but this is a completely alternate universe where our characters are dropped into a completely different set of circumstances, on the same timeline as the comics. Namely, they are anarchists in America. See the endnotes for more about the inspiration behind this story.
