Summary
Lexa doesn't speak anymore and Clarke is emotionally numb. The first time they meet, they're strangers on a bench. Let's take it from there ;)
It's a story about losing important things and fighting to deal with it. It's a story about learning to live again.
It's an AU based entirely on my imagination.
I don't want to give too much away from the start, it's angsty at times but also really sweet. I don't know how to rate it. Let me know if I don't put up any warnings you might have needed.
It's my first fic and I hope you like it and want to come back for more chapters.
(it's all done, so you won't be stuck in a story that never ends)

Summary
"Is there room for one more on this bench?" Clarke asks rhetorically and with a playful tone, as she slides in next to Lexa. She leans in to place a kiss on her cheek and her heart skips a beat as her favorite half smile breaks free from Lexa's lips.
OR
The sequel to Strangers On A Bench.
Lexa still doesn't speak but this time they're no longer strangers. These two are not done growing and that's what this story is about.
Also, I'm introducing new characters and they'll be added to the list in due time...

“So a selective mute then?” Jared raised an eyebrow, “You know what that is right? Sometimes there's like kids with bad anxiety or whatever so they don’t like to talk to other people because of it. Sure you got your average social anxiety but there's also a thing called selective mutism or whatever where they only talk to specific people.”

Summary
Luffy is by no means talkative.
He actually has very little to say and apparently only does bother saying things that mattered a lot to him like how he will be the pirate king or that Shanks is so cool!
A guy with a few words is what Sabo used to describe the behavior. Conversations with Luffy are short, brief and straight to the point but it happens, he does talk.
So no, Luffy isn't talkative.
He is however the furthest thing from quiet.

Summary
What Cloud wants to do is get the fuck off this mountain as quickly as possible, and get somewhere safe. But as he starts to straighten, he hesitates, staring down at Zack’s bloody, lifeless body, and the sword that seems to now hold Zack’s soul in it.
“Well,” Zack says, clearly trying to sound upbeat. “You’re in one piece, at least. And awake! That’s what really matters.” His voice turns rueful. “Don’t really know how we’re gonna get out of this one.”
(in which Zack is the sword boyfriend, Cloud gets with the program way sooner, and Midgar can't catch a break.)

It had been months since Binghamton's game and the world hadn't readjusted itself. It still stood as tipped askew as Andrew had always known it to be, yet since that game it had been worse. It was so askew that he could barely keep his feet.
Neil was gone. Not dead, Andrew knew he wasn't dead, but gone. The worst part was that for once Andrew could do nothing to bring him back.

Bookmarker's Notes
' Andrew hated that Neil fixed everything with his simple presence, but more than that, how he actively pushed for change.
He hated even more how, when it came down to it, if Neil asked him in that godawful way that he did, the way that expected nothing and would accept disagreement if it was returned to him, Andrew knew he would follow. ' -

Bookmarker's Notes
“Speaking of not talking, Parrish, do you have a sign language name or something?”
Adam blinks. I don’t speak sign language, unfortunately
Ronan is visibly puzzled. “But are you—wait. Did you not—” He stops himself, and finally settles on a question. “Have you not always been this way?”
He falters for the briefest of moments before he shakes his head. This is at least half the secret he can give.
“Did something happen?”
Sort of
Ronan doesn’t seem to know where to go from there, so Adam continues.
I know when it started, but I don’t know if that was the real catalyst. There was a lot. He waits a long moment before adding, I didn’t choose this.
Ronan’s expression as he puts the pieces together is so completely different from Gansey’s. His mouth turns down into a frown, and when he meets Adam’s eyes, they’re all fury. It should make Adam uncomfortable, but the next words out of Ronan’s mouth ensure that he isn’t, “Who did this?”
