    Summary

    Avery goes out skateboarding on a sunny summer day. Once he gets back to Derek, they talk about squirrels, old languages, giant ground sloths, and why Avery doesn't wear elbow pads.

    And if Derek's infinite knowledge is a little unsettling, well...Avery doesn't really mind.

    Summary

    What's in your inventory?

    The last thing D3rLord3 ever said to AveryTheMayo in that world was a question. A distraction. A way to push him somewhere safe before the door closed.

    Derek Hutchins wakes up at 3am and cannot convince himself he is real. He presses his hand to his own chest and counts his heartbeat and it doesn't help, and then Avery is there, sitting on the kitchen floor, asking him about chip flavors like it's the most natural thing in the world.
    It helps. Avery helps. Derek is slowly, reluctantly, gratefully learning to let him.

    The next morning Derek tries to make breakfast and sets off the smoke alarm. The eggs are perfect. The toast is a casualty. Everything is fine.
    (first time Avery realizes how deep it goes. first time Derek realizes he doesn't have to hold it alone.)

    Summary

    "When you have an option to do the right thing, do you take the risk?"

    There's a special type of stupidity that comes with the DeCruise family name.
    And, unfortunately for fate, Avery is a prime example of it.
    Most recently, that stupidity has surfaced, in the form of breaking into a house to save someone he barely knows- but who he's dead certain he needs.

    And there's not a single bone in his body telling him to turn back now.
    But things tend to happen.

    Or, in which a house is broken into, mirrors shatter under gazes, and the gates might not be closed just yet.

    No I lied THIS is my favourite SFAWTDE fic... this is how the aftermath and eldritch horror should be written. The character interactions are so enjoyable and Derek is so eldritch bullshit, inject this into me

    Summary

    “You want to throw my laptop off a cliff.”

    “Or smash it. Or set it on fire. Or all three. We can workshop it.”

    There’s another quiet laugh, but it doesn’t quite stick the landing. Avery hears the hesitation creeping back in, curling around the edges of D3r’s voice like fog.

    “In person,” D3r says, not quite a question.

    “Yeah,” Avery says easily, like it doesn’t make his stomach flip. “In person. I wanna meet you.”

    The words hang between them.

    He watches D3r’s character on screen because it’s easier than imagining D3r’s face doing whatever it’s doing right now. The avatar doesn’t react, of course. Just stands there in the pixelated grass, the moon casting a pale square light over his shoulders. Avery imagines he can see tension in the way the model is angled, which is ridiculous, but he’s very good at projecting onto blockmen at this point.

    Okay THIS is my favourite SFAWTDE fic. Struck such a chord with me. Two people alone and united in the world. Perfect slowburn and romantic undertones, really feels like a friends first lovers second. Tbf I don't have the words for it, but it's such a comforting enjoyable fic

    Summary

    Whatever you do at the crossroads, keep going forward.
    The King is gone. Derek Hutchins is alive, somehow, improbably, stubbornly alive, and Avery is not going to waste that.

    Recovery is mostly boring. It involves bad hospital coffee, a couch that smells like laundry detergent, breakfast eggs, and a YouTuber who reads academic papers about forbidden knowledge at 2am because he refuses to let Derek be alone in this.

    It also, eventually, involves Skywars.
    Derek is very bad at Skywars. He is working on it.

    "and outside the last of the sunlight finally finished what it was doing and left them in the soft, ordinary dark of a Tuesday evening."

    Beautifully written and characterised fic, hell yeah fluff
