#twenty one pilots does amazing at posting snippets of their shows

[wanna-bewitch-you]

I totally understand the phone-free thing. It sucks to go to a concert and see a bunch of phones being held up and recording, and I can only imagine what that looks like from stage.

However, it also sucks that there will be no more concert footage. I found Ghost through that and it makes fans feel connected.

I hope that they will start posting some footage on their social media. It’s just kinda sad to be cut off from seeing anything from the shows.

Dr. Heero Yuy, Preventers forensics expert, can’t seem to get over his crush on his former wartime comrade Agent Duo Maxwell.  Agent Duo Maxwell can’t seem to stand the sight of him… and yet…?

I was so excited to be posting this story which I started writing 4 years ago, but then I realized who is even the audience for this ahahahaha

Special Needs (Ch. 7) http://archiveofourown.org/works/10549412/chapters/26818131

Also warning for those who are a bit squeamish: there's some vomiting towards the end of this chapter. You won't miss anything plot heavy by skipping over it. But the gist of that section (if you had to skip it) is that Une is a badass and still very much a strong woman and I tried to imply she's been there helping with Treize for a while when nobody else was. I hope that came through. Also Zechs is easily grossed out.

By Demons Be Driven http://archiveofourown.org/works/11889852/chapters/26854797

or years she struggled to live, burdened by a long-forgotten past, an unclear present, and a non-existent future. War consumes her life, forcing her to live as if every day is her last. Fate has seen fit to gift her with unnatural abilities far beyond the normal human capacity. With those abilities, she leads a daily game of tag, putting her life on the line over and over again. Will a chance meeting with a young man give this tired young woman the will to keep fighting? And with the war escalating higher and higher, will she have the time to find out who, and what, she really is?
