Cinnamon Snail
An @omgzineplease fic preview (Zine releases for free June 5th)...
Ships: Eric "Bitty" Bittle/Jack Zimmerman, Larissa "Lardo" Duan/Shitty Knight
Rating: G
Summary:
It's ten years since graduation. While looking after Lardo and Shitty's new bundle of joy, Jack starts to wonder what the rest of his life with Bitty might look like.
(Preview under the cut)
“En kop kaffe og en kanelsnegl, tak,” Shitty said as clearly as he could, hoping his American accent didn’t mangle his Danish. The café he’d taken Lardo to was in the center of Copenhagen, and he was getting by on the smattering of Danish he’d picked up from a month of language app study.
While watching Danish crime dramas during late-night feeds with Timmy, he'd become acutely aware of how one part of Denmark pronounced words varied vastly from the other side of the country. In some ways, it made trying to learn Danish through an app a hit-and-miss exercise.
“Am I right that the translation of ‘kanelsnegl’ is literally ‘cinnamon snail’?” Lardo asked as they finished ordering. They were both having the same, though Lardo would be doctoring her coffee with ample spoons of sugar once it arrived.
“You would be,” Shitty replied with a smile. It was twelve hours and counting since they’d landed in Denmark and as he waited for his cinnamon roll and coffee, Shitty tried to ignore the worry attempting to crawl up the back of his spine.
The trip marked their first prolonged absence from Timmy since he’d been born nine months ago. And Timmy was the first anything that Shitty found he couldn’t be completely chill about. I guess that’s what it means to be a parent, Shitty thought as the coffee bean grinder in the corner kicked into gear. Constantly worrying and hoping for the best.
“How do you think Bitty and Jack are doing?” Lardo asked, pushing back her long black hair. The undercut was fresh and only two days old. It wasn’t that Lardo was vain, Shitty had found in their marriage, it was that she liked meeting her preferred sense of style as closely as possible at all times.
Shitty flashed back to a week prior when pureed carrot and sweet potato had become spattered over the suit jacket he had returned home wearing that day.
“I’m sure they’re doing fine.” Shitty looked at his watch and estimated it was just coming up to four in the morning back in Rhode Island. He tried not to think about the jet lag that was still waiting to hit him.

Bubblin’
the last of the angst ficlets based on the album Heart Murmurs by jeremy messersmith
ao3
----
Lover, I can't say what I mean to say
Lover, I will put all these words away
Lover, I don't know how to make you stay
Lardo’s heart was full, her boys around her making all the best appreciative noises over her junior year art show. Her art friends steered clear of the rowdy hockey boys but Lardo loved them. She stole a look at Shitty in time to see him pull his phone out of his suit pocket. 
Shitty’s jaw dropped open as Lardo watched, the light from his phone reflecting in his wide eyes. 
“I got in.” He croaked. “I got into Harvard.”
The crowd erupted in shouts as Lardo felt her stomach drop to her toes. 
It wasn’t like she hadn’t known he would graduate and leave Samwell, she was painfully aware of that fact every day since they had started hooking up. But it was more real somehow, now. 
Tears jumping to her eyes, she fled the gallery, her night ruined. 
The exit door slammed shut behind her as she sat heavily on the curb and buried her face in her knees. Why did she have to go catch feelings in his senior year? 
She pretended not to hear the door as it swung open again a moment later.
“Lards?” Bitty’s voice called softly. Lardo raised a hand in acknowledgment and waited as Bitty settled on the curb beside her. 
They sat in silence for a moment, then Bitty said, “Makes it real, doesn’t it.”
Lardo choked out a laugh, even though it wasn’t funny. 
“Harvard isn’t far, at least,” he offered.
“Still not Samwell, though.”
“It’s not.”
Another moment passed before Lardo lifted her head and looked at her friend. He opened his arms and she leaned into him, desperate for the comfort he offered. 
“I forget they’re leaving sometimes. But of course they are. Doesn’t make it any easier to stay behind,” Bitty continued, stroking Lardo’s hair soothingly. 
“I think I love him,” Lardo whispered. 
“Oh, honey,” Bitty sighed. “Have you told him?”
She shook her head into his shoulder. 
“Maybe you should.”
Another shake.
Bitty didn’t press, just kept stroking her hair.
“I think I love him, too,” he said after a moment.
“What a pair we make,” Lardo mumbled. “Loving boys who are leaving.”
“What’d we go and do that for?”
“If you figure it out, you tell me, deal?”
“Deal,” Bitty agreed. “Now why don’t you come back inside and enjoy your show before those dumb boys of ours get concerned.”
Lardo gave him a watery smile and let him help her to her feet. She should enjoy the night while she had him. 
Together, they went back inside.

I say yes but after a long discussion on whether or not it's rude.
Bitty: "My mama would be appalled if she knew I sent a card with the word 'shit' on it... but, it does say y'all. And Shity and Lardo would love it. Still, we should be celebrating their love and I don't know if this shows how happy we are. And we are! But it's funny! And it does say congratulations, and shit is almost Shitty, which is also funny. I just don’t wanna be rude."
Jack: ... I like the colors.

Holster religiously celebrates Galentines' Day every year
Ransom celebrates with him because he likes doing things that make Holster happy and he is very carefully Not Thinking Too Hard About This
Shitty and Lardo celebrate with him because it sounds like fun, and presents! and Jerry's brunch! what's not to love about that?
Jack put up a token protest at first because he does not like doing things that make Holster happy and brunch doesn't fit in his carefully curated meal plan, but then Shitty yells at him for an hour about gender roles, and even though that's not why he doesn't want to do it he gives in anyway because it seems like the path of least resistance and not worth putting up a fight over

check please demigods au
Jack zimmermann would be the son of Aphrodite. His yellow shoes are magical and cant be burned
Bitty the son of Ares, Ares has an unusual interest in Suzanne Bittle and often visited, but the way he looked at how Bitty hates contact sports gnawed at Bitty his entire life
Ransom is an Athena kid, and singlehandedly caused the "no coffee for Athena cabin" rule
Holster and Lardo rule the Dionysus cabin
Shitty is a son of Zeus and he is vehement about his father being an asshole
Jack gives Bitty individual lessons because otherwise "you're going to get yourself killed, or worse, lose Capture the Flag for us"
Bitty becomes the champion of Hestia, and has the power to impose rules of hospitality on people and pull fresh baked pies out of nowhere
