    Summary

    It's the first winter after Pitch's defeat. Jack is happy, he's not alone anymore, and his memories are gradually returning. But when a treasure hunt gone wrong puts Jack and Jamie in danger, flinging them through time and space, they find themselves on an island neither of them have heard of before. Jack's first priority is to get Jamie home safe, but Berk's inhabitants - human and otherwise - are certainly not making it easy.

    Knowing they will leave Berk and the Vikings behind as soon as they know how to, Jack is not going to risk the pain of growing close to any of these people (or dragons, for that matter). But Hiccup Horrendous Haddock, wearing his heart on his sleeve, doesn't seem to want to take the hint.

    Summary

    It's Christmas 1990. Mike brings his boyfriend (!!!) Will home for the holidays. Everything seems fine... until it's not.
    PLEASE READ “THIS IS ME TRYING” FIRST, as the plot relies heavily upon the context from that story!

    Title inspired by the song “Sad Beautiful Tragic” by Mother Swift <3

    Summary

    He doesn’t say, “You’re burning up,” afraid the words will sound too soft. He cages them in his mouth, letting them dissolve on his tongue like sugar.

    He also doesn't say, “This is the first time I’ve felt warm since I was 12.”

    He just stands there uselessly, listening to Mike breathe as sweat pools between their skin.

    Eventually, Holly breaks the silence by jabbing Will in the spine. She perks up on the tips of her toes and hooks her chin over his shoulder.

    “Look, Will,” she huffs. “Your hand finally stopped shaking.”

    Will is so tired of being cold and alone. Enter Mike Wheeler with a fever on Christmas.

    Summary

    “So, arcade this afternoon, right?” Dustin asks. He has his notebook open and papers strewn all over the table. So much for Bell’s about to ring.

    “Um, actually -” he begins, but Will finishes for him.

    “Mike’s not coming. He’s busy,” he says, like that explains everything. “It’ll just be us three.”

    --

    It’s been a month since Hawkins split apart, and people are starting to piece together a new normal. But what does “normal” even mean for someone like Mike Wheeler?
