sophomore slump (or comeback of the year)
ao3 | 1,242 words | post-canon
“What can I do for you, Connor?” he asks. “Right.” Connor clears his throat too. “I was actually hoping I could get your advice on something?” “Oh, now you want my advice?” Connor groans. “Are you gonna make me regret this?” “I mean, probably,” David says, pretending to inspect his nails. “I don’t give very good advice.”
a.k.a., Connor actually needs David's advice this time.

to david, with love
ao3 | 2,059 | neighbors au, birthday fluff
Patrick gets David a really nice gift for his birthday. Rachel spills some beans. Moves are made.
It’s certainly not the most tasteful birthday party he’s ever had.
Curling streamers cascade from the ceiling of his penthouse apartment, just tacky enough to match the colorful balloons tied to various surfaces around the room – including the giant 3 and 0 along the back wall. Frankly, David should just consider himself lucky that there isn’t a piñata… but he’d expect nothing less from a party planned by Stevie, who would deliberately design the room to his anti-tastes.
Still, the makeshift bar is well stocked, he’s had several strong cocktails, and they’re now all settled around the coffee table full of gift bags and boxes that he did not strategically stage.
It’s also the first birthday party he didn’t have to orchestrate himself, so… there’s that.
In years past, he’d thrown himself extravagant parties, where he’d lured as many people as possible for free booze or a free trip (or both). It’d been about appearances, and maybe fooling himself into believing that hoards of people actually cared about him. Since he’d found out that his parents were bankrolling his gallery, however, David had closed its doors and cut off those so-called friends. Shortly after that, he’d met Stevie, and the rest fell into place.
These days, their standard group includes Stevie, Rachel, Twyla, Ted, and, often to David’s dismay, his sister, Alexis. They’re all here and, for the first time, the only ones invited.
He’s tipsy enough to admit that the only thing missing… is Patrick.

It’s my favorite time of year! I missed out on this incredible fest when I first joined the fandom last January, but you bet I was thrilled to join @scfrozenover this year. After all, I’m a winter bitch stuck in the tropics. So, I wrote over 30K in winter fic. Surprise! As my pal Taylor Swift would say, ‘tis the damn season.
Huge, huge shoutout to the mods for organizing this fest (and for also being patient with me when I needed a second extension for one of them). Love ya’ll! Happy Holidays. ⛄❄️
Day 3:
Yule Shoot Your Eye Out
[Stevie & David, David/Patrick, Stevie/Ruth - T - 1,563]
Stevie and David, much like the snow, thaw over time.
---
Day 5:
and we’d swear to remember it (all too well)
[David/Patrick, Stevie & David, Alexis/Ted - E - 9,650]
“Come with me,” he’d said, hands tracing along Patrick’s shoulders. “We can go to New York together. My family has money now — we can do whatever we want, go wherever we want.” He’d moved his hands to cup his face, thumbs gently brushing against his cheeks. “You’re too good for this town.”
Patrick had recoiled at David’s words like they’d been some kind of heavy accusation, rather than a compliment. And that’d been it: the beginning of the end. Though David never would’ve guessed that’s where the conversation had been headed at the time. If David had known, he would’ve slammed on the brakes before they’d careened off the track. He would’ve pulled the lever to change course. He would’ve done anything, if he’d known then what he does now.
When David returns to his hometown for the holidays, he reminisces about his first love and where things went wrong. He doesn’t expect to, y'know, hook up with that ex, be mistaken as ‘back together’ by that ex’s mother, and end up faking a relationship for Christmas Eve. That wasn’t really the plan, but 'tis the season, amirite?
---
Day 6:
Making Spirits Bright
[David/Patrick, Patrick & Rachel - M - 6,137]
“Okay, here’s the thing,” she explains. “The only thing that determines your future is your actions, which means nothing is set in stone. Not yet.“ She gestures to the scene in front of them."If you wake up, go back to your life, and don’t change anything you’re doing, this is your future. This is where you’re headed. But that doesn’t mean it’s the only future available to you.”
Patrick Brewer has resigned himself to a life he doesn’t actually want, but on Christmas Eve, a ghost visits his dreams to show him what the past says about his present… and an even better future.
Yep — it’s basically 'A Christmas Carol’ for Patrick.
---
Day 8:
lights like you (glow all year long) w/ @lilythesilly
[David/Patrick, Stevie/Ruth - E - 18,840]
Shakespeare said, “Journeys end in lovers meeting,” which is an extraordinary thought. To think that we all spend our lives on a quest to be loved, and we can rest like the hero victorious once we find it — well, it’s a nice idea, isn’t it? It may even be true… for some people.
For people like David Rose and Ruth Clancy, however, love has always been a little bit complicated… It hasn’t been freely given or simply found; it’s something that’s always been earned or bought.
See, because Shakespeare also said that “love is blind,” — and, with that, they can agree.
They’ve certainly never felt like it looked at them twice.
OR: After discovering that his parents have secretly funded (ahem, bribed) his way to success, David Rose turns to one of his favorite romantic comedies for comfort… and advice. He ends up swapping homes with a similarly career-minded Canadian named Ruth for a much-needed solo vacation. While Ruth navigates bustling New York City, David settles in a cozy small-town cottage in Nowhere, Ontario. As it turns out, they may have been looking for happiness in all the wrong places all along.
with mischief in sight, we’re all merry and bright w/ @anniemurphys, @nerdframed, @sarahlevys, & @turningtimeinthetardis
[Alexis/Twyla, Stevie/Ruth - T - 7,510]
It’s easier for Stevie to avoid sharing details about her dating life with Mr. Rose at first, but the endless questions about why she’s single have worn her down enough that by the time December rolls around, she chooses to ask for a favour from her oldest friend.
‘Dating’ Twyla is a tiny white lie… It’s small, well-calculated. A tiny white lie. One that only has to hold up for a few hours during David and Patrick’s holiday party.
What harm could it do?

I’m so, so happy that you started sharing your words with us. More importantly, I’m even happier that you’ve become a member of this community and one of my dearest friends. I’m so proud of you, lovebug! Here’s to many words to come! 💛
Tumblr media
So it’s my fic-aversary. One year ago today, I published my first fic, Persistence of Memory on ao3. At the time, I was in the middle of writing my dissertation and hadn’t written fic or even been involved in fandom in nearly 15 years. I had one or two more ideas of things to write, but I didn’t know if this was a thing I needed to get out of my system and move on or not. One year, 50(!) fics, and nearly 250,000 words later, I guess it wasn’t! I’ve made some incredible friends who have helped me through a very hard year, written some things I’ve very proud of (and some things I never thought I’d write!), and read some incredible stories by so many amazing writers.
So thank you all, and here’s hoping that in the next year, I finish some of these WIPs!

Outside Edge
Pairing: David Rose/Patrick Brewer, David Rose & Stevie Budd, Patrick Brewer & Stevie Budd, implied Stevie Budd/Twyla Sands, referenced David Rose/Sebastian Raine (past)
Rated M for Mature (for language, sexual humor, and references to some adult themes); TAGGED for: Alternate Universe - Olympics, Bickering, Gratuitous use of the f-bomb, NHL Star Patrick Brewer, Enemies to friends to something, Sexual Tension, Multi-Part Slow Burn, Epistolary, Figure Skater David Rose, disordered eating mention, Based on a Film (Sort of)
Patrick's barely-there-brows pull together. “Hey, I’m doing you a favor here—”
And that's it; that's what completely sends David over the edge.
“—I'm sorry, doing me a favor?” David cuts him off before that gets any further. His voice is doing that shrill thing he's apparently well-known for, but he can replay the memory and hate himself for it later. Right now, he's pissed. “How about you do me a favor and take your little hockey bat and sh—”
“O-ookay!” Stevie half-yells, literally stomping her way between them. Her angry expression turns to David first and, somehow, that always makes him feel seen, down into his very soul — like Stevie is looking directly at the ugliest parts of him.
“David, he is your only shot at competing this year. Literally your only option.” She turns that look in the other direction, and he almost (almost) feels bad for the guy; Patrick isn't used to be threatened with the daggers behind Stevie's most impressive glare. “Patrick, this is your only shot at competing again at all. Literally, no one else on this planet is desperate enough to teach an NHL retiree how to dance on ice.” She folds her arms over her chest. “So, either suck it up now or quit.”

So... I wrote a couple things for the Passions & Pastimes fest. This was a blast, so shout out to the organizers for setting this up and to the incredible, incredible creators who contributed! We were blessed with SO MUCH fic, art, and transformative works... Great job, everyone!
Anyway, here’s some stuff I did:
shining, shimmering, splendid (day 1)
[ Alexis Rose/Twyla Sands - G - 1,368 ]
Twyla tries to picture it: glowing blue water rolling onto the shore as the moonlight hangs overhead. She imagines streams of light catching Alexis’s hair as she wades into the water and beckons Twyla to follow her. (Does she know Twyla would follow her anywhere?)
“I have an idea,” she says, slowly, before she thinks better of it. “What if… you showed me?”
“Hmm,” Alexis stops braiding again to reach for her phone on the coffee table. “I think I still have some pictures on here…”
“No,” Twyla grins, pushing the phone down. “I mean… We should go.”
The blonde blinks. “To Puerto Rico?”
“To all of those places.”
OR: Twyla finally starts spending some of her lottery winnings on things that make her smile, and learns how much she loves to travel. Who better to show her around the world than Alexis? A small collection of drabbles.
change of heart (day 5)
[ Theodore “Ted” Mullens/Alexis Rose, Alexis Rose & David Rose, Patrick Brewer & David Rose, Patrick Brewer & Alexis Rose & David Rose, Patrick Brewer/David Rose  - G - 2,609 ]
Alexis never saw herself as someone who would adopt a cat.
Working at the clinic should’ve been enough to steer her away from that forever — and she’s never liked animals, anyway.
But it’s just like… this cat, though.
Outside Edge (day 7)
[ Patrick Brewer/David Rose, Stevie Budd & David Rose, Patrick Brewer & Stevie Budd, Sebastien Raine/David Rose - M - 12,114 ]
Patrick’s barely-there-brows pull together. “Hey, I’m doing you a favor here—”
And that’s it; that’s what completely sends David over the edge.
“—I’m sorry, doing me a favor?” David cuts him off before that gets any further. His voice is doing that shrill thing he’s apparently well-known for, but he can replay the memory and hate himself for it later. Right now, he’s pissed. “How about you do me a favor and take your little hockey bat and sh—”
“O-ookay!” Stevie half-yells, literally stomping her way between them. Her angry expression turns to David first: “David, he is your only shot at competing this year. Literally your only option.” She turns that look in the other direction: “Patrick, this is your only shot at competing again at all. Literally no one else on this planet is desperate enough to teach an NHL retiree how to dance on ice.” She folds her arms over her chest. “So, either suck it up now or quit.”

Pairing: Alexis Rose/Twyla Sands Rated T; TAGGED for: Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Pining, Fluff, A dash of jealousy, and they were ROOMMATES...,Oh My God They Were Roommates, Stevie Budd is a good friend, S3 Divergence
“I kinda wanna get my own place,” she tries, “but, like, where do I even start?”
“Well,” Twyla says, “Susan is moving in with her boyfriend next month. So… I’m going to have an extra room in my apartment, actually. You could come live with me!”
“Oh my god, Twy!” Alexis claps her hands together under her chin, face lighting up with faux surprise. “That would be so, so amazing. We're gonna be the cutest little roomies!” She beams, reaching over to tap Twyla’s side of the counter once. “I dunno how I’m gonna repay you!”
Twyla gives her a look. “I mean, you’re gonna have to… pay the rent.”
OR: Alexis is tired of sharing a room with her brother. She moves in with Twyla. You know the rest.

Alexis rolled her eyes. "You didn't have to come, David. Mom and dad would've picked up the phone eventually and sent someone," she retorted. "And I really don't think you have any right to be lecturing me about this."
"Excuse me?"
"I'm just saying," she continued, words flying from her mouth before she could catch them (not that Alexis thought she would anyway), "like, maybe you should wait until the coke is out of your system before you lecture me about drugs."
Alexis watched David's knuckles go white as he gripped the wheel. She hit a nerve.
"That's not fair," he said.
She laughed humorlessly. "Isn't it?"

i'm powerful with a little bit of tender
Pairing: Stevie Budd/Ruth Clancy, David Rose & Stevie Budd
Rated G; TAGGED for Queer Feelings, Abundance of Wine Metaphors, Stevie Doesn't Like the Label Either, Getting Together
“Okay, okay, I got it,” Stevie says, rubbing her hands together. "So, I told you that I only drink red wine. And, at the time, that was true, or I… I thought it was true, but lately… I’ve been thinking a lot about white wine. One specific white wine, actually, and it’s been confusing. So, I guess I was wondering when it was that you knew that you wanted to… drink red wine too? I mean, is it possible to think you only like one thing, and realize you… could want… something else? Too?”
OR: David isn't the only one who has a thing for his business partner, apparently. Stevie processes some new feelings and gathers the courage to take a leap.

like waves in the water
Pairing: David Rose/Patrick Brewer
Rated M for sexual content; TAGGED for: Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Established Relationship, Trolling as a Love Language, Marriage Proposal, Patrick Brewer is a Troll, POV Patrick Brewer, POV David Rose, POV Multiple, Sexual Content, Blatant References to The Office, Brief Reference to Body Image
For @roguebebe​
What matters is that Patrick’s grand, romantic plan to propose to David at the top of Rattlesnake Point — in the same spot he processed his crush years ago — is ruined. What matters is that Patrick needs a new plan; what matters is that David’s been acting squirrely as hell, like any sudden movement could signal The Moment Patrick gets down on one knee and pops the question.
OR: When Patrick realizes that David has caught wind of his proposal plans, he tries to keep his future fiance on his toes.

ON THE WRONG SIDE OF PARADISE
Pairing: David Rose & Stevie Budd, David Rose/Stevie Budd (Referenced) Rated M; TAGGED for: Best Friends Stevie Budd & David Rose, Recreational Drug Use, Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Episode: s02e01 Finding David, POV David Rose, David Rose Deserves Nice Things, Stevie Budd Takes No Shit, Lovers to Friends, New York City, Implied/Referenced Sex, Casual drinking, Heart-to-Heart, Based on a Fall Out Boy Song, Incorrect Use of a Fire Escape, Implied/Referenced Alcohol Abuse/Alcoholism
"—David," Stevie cut him off, visibly annoyed. "Look, I'm not here because everything is all fine between us and I'm ready to hear about how you're roughing it because you're living like a normal person."
It hit like an ice bucket over his head. Okay, and maybe it'd been wishful thinking to hope that she'd just… gotten over what had happened between them but… that didn't make the cold sting less. He sighed, looking down to watch himself twist his ring around his pointer finger.
"Then why are you here?" He asked.
"You need to come home."
What if David (and Moira's bag) had made it to New York at the end of S1?

SILENCE LAY STEADILY | Chapter 7: Reality
Chapters: 7/8 Pairing: David Rose/Stevie Budd, Alexis Rose/Twyla Sands Rated E; TAGGED for: Alternate Universe, Inspired by The Haunting of Hill House, Ghosts, Haunted Houses, Minor Character Death, Panic Attacks, Implied/Referenced Drug Use, Implied/Referenced Substance Abuse, Rehab, Childhood Trauma, Nightmares, David Rose Deserves Nice Things, Alexis Rose is a Badass, Non-Linear Narrative, Major Character Injury, Light Description of Injury & Blood, Alexis Rose Being a Good Sister, David Rose is a Good Person, Childhood Friends, Childhood Sweethearts, Stevie Budd and David Rose are Soulmates, Horror w/ A Happy Ending, Sexual Content, Eventually!
Fear is the relinquishment of logic — the willing relinquishing of reasonable patterns. We yield to it, or we fight it, but we cannot meet it halfway.
