If they want me to be a monster one step closer to God, that's fine.
In what world was their God ever a benevolent one?”

Ben and Kenji are a winter type of love.
Darius and Brooklynn are a spring type of love.
Sammy and Yaz are a summer type of love.
...That is all.
Bonus ships (I don't write abt them but they still deserve recognition):
Darius and Ben are an autumn type of love.
Kenji and Brooklynn are a summer love.

Ohhh I love a character study, and I LOVE Keith and Scrags, so... Let's call this one fair game!
Tumblr media
“Please… Just leave me alone.”
Those five words caused the start of everything. When the last of the footsteps faded off into the distance, leaving him with the slowly growing patch of mud on his knees, that was just the start. Benji Scragtowski- awkward, sensitive Benji- had just been left alone. Without his best friend, or any of his friends, for that matter. When he asked, they gave him space, but he never asked for them back, and so they never came.
He was fourteen, at the time. They were already in high school. At this point, everyone already had their friendship groups. That’s why he spent a good portion of the remaining half of the year completely alone.
Keith would talk to anyone, and because he managed to insert himself into that many social situations just by being himself, he had good, solid friends in a matter of days. Gwen had never had a problem, not even when it was just the four of them. She had a whole network of fallback options, and within a few weeks, it was like she’d never had a part in the squad at all. Esther had appeared to get used to their life alone, but even they ended up with a small clique of their own after a few months.
But Scrags should’ve seen this coming. He was a loner before the squad, it seemed only right that he would continue to be a loner after they broke up. At least Esther was kind enough to acknowledge his presence once in a while. That was something. 
He finished that year still reeling about what had happened. In the space of what was really only a few hours, he’d literally lost everything he’d built up over years. The four of them were supposed to be cool together, at least until the natural end of it all, when they weren’t kids anymore. The problem with that was that they still were. So the ending wasn’t natural, no matter how much the others wanted to pretend like it was. Sometimes, his mother would ask him how his friends were. He didn’t have the heart to tell her they all disappeared when Cluebert did.
All he had left of the life he used to have was the element of mystery. It’s what kept things exciting, knowing that there was so much out there that he just couldn’t understand, it still intrigued him as much as it always had. Even if he’d lost a bit of the spark for it, and most of his entire motive for pursuing it had gone, there was still nothing that interested him more.
That notion carried him all the way through high school, when he decided that, if that was really something he was serious about, then he may as well make a career out of it. And he really wanted to continue this dip into that kind of life as much as he could.
The criminal justice course he’d chosen out in the middle of nowhere wasn’t quite the excitement he’d promised himself, but the day he got accepted into the FBI made all of that a little more worth it.
He was twenty-three. Benji Scragtowski- studious, hard-working Benji- finally had prospects, a real job, and a chance at being happy again.
What he still didn’t have was a best friend. Connections, sure, and people he would consider “friends” in varying degrees of the word, but nothing concrete. He had to let go of the past at some point, but that was an impossible ask for someone like him.
 
 
Keith had never been particularly observant by any means, but he found himself guiltily watching Scrags after the squad broke up. He was the last to leave him behind, sparing enough glances behind him to tell him he really didn’t want to let this thing go. Part of him wanted Scrags to catch his eye, but the opportunity came and went, and Scrags didn’t look at him once.
He thought he had three people he could confide in about the rather catastrophic death of Cluebert, but the truth of the matter was that Keith had been a coward. He’d never mentioned the fact that he didn’t actually care whether Cluebert was alive or not.
When everyone left, he was fifteen. Keith Swanson- brash, overconfident Keith- Had managed to wreck everything he had and couldn’t even admit to his mistakes. There had never been more of a worse friend in the history of the world.
After beating himself up over that for a while, he decided that the best course of action was just to distance himself as much as possible, and hopefully the feeling would go away. That, or Scrags’ grief would fade out enough that the two of them could reconnect, without having to bring those old scars back to the surface.
That never happened.
By the end of sophomore year, he’d been accepted into a small network of people, but none of them were really close friend material. Not as much as Scrags had been, anyway. Besides his crush on Gwen that lasted him throughout the entire duration of the squad itself, he’d always been the closest to Scrags. The two of them were on a certain level that he just couldn’t reach with the others, and that brought them closer.
At least, in his eyes.
Maybe that wasn’t the case for Scrags… After all, he’d not chosen to make a move to salvage the friendship they had. Neither of them did. And Keith had to be honest with himself, it probably looked like he’d moved on way too much. Like he’d gotten way too comfortable with this new life. Like he’d let go.
It got to the point where the only time he saw him was in passing periods. He’d grown up a lot, seemingly different every time Keith saw him. In only a year, Scrags became a completely changed person. Way taller, way more reserved… Keith couldn’t help but wonder whether things would’ve been a little different if they had stayed together.
One thing he was admittedly happy to let go of was the whole mystery shtick the four of them had going on. He could never get his head around it, it was always just a matter of getting things done and moving onto the next thing. For him, that was always how things had been, a constant need to move on to the next thing.
He wasn’t going to college, he’d decided that a long time ago, but he started overhearing more and more people talking about their options. All he knew for certain was that he needed to get out of Mayberry.
“Hey Keith, you were friends with that guy Scragtowski, weren’t you?”
Keith nodded, sure of that much at least. People talking about their options and where they were going from high school had made him feel a little uneasy for reasons completely unknown to him, but the mention of Scrags did nothing but make that feeling worse. “Sure. Why?”
“Heard he’s going to do some criminal course or whatever, all the way out in Boston!”
Boston?
Keith felt his face fall. If Scrags was all the way out in Boston, then there was never going to be another chance to speak to him, to try and make things right.
And there never was.
Years passed, and Keith’s plan of not knowing what he was doing paid off just fine. It was perfectly normal for a twenty-four year old man to have no kind of future, or friends, or any kind of life... Right?
... Right?

I finished Us Against You and here's what I have to say.
I love Benjamin Ovich so much. He is one of the most respectable people to have walked the fictional Earth. So highly respected by everyone - in town and out. Maybe it's out of fear, or maybe it's pity, or maybe it's out of just respect for his character. He smells like pine and bonfires. He climbs trees and solves problems with his fists. He sacrifices himself for others and takes the fall unconditionally. He's a child of the forest. His role models are all women who raised him perfectly. His moral compass is unbreakable. He conformed to other's labels and lost himself. He hears others out before forming an opinion. He is the most caring motherfucker and many people skip over that part of him. He is hurting, but no one can read that about him. He can not be controlled but can be tamed. He thinks before he speaks, and he doesn't talk much unless he means it. He can't handle responsibility. Deep down he is still just a boy. A wildfire. A diamond in the rough. But he's our Benji. And despite his flaws, I love Benji so much.
God if I was in the Beartownverse, I would be so painfully in love with him but so much that I would follow him anywhere. I would love him so much that as long as I was in his life, I would be happy. He would never love me back in the same way, no. And that'd be okay. I would still look for him in everyone I met. And I'd sacrifice everything for his happy ending.
The Winners is going to destroy me. Fredrik Backman I am SOBBING and SIMPING over a fictional man

I may have already sent you one (sorry if I did) but 👉👈
Trick or Treat? :3
HELLO I LOVE YOU
may i offer you, a tiny little sneak peak of a scene that will come much later in "All i am" ? it's still subject to change because idk how much editing i'll do to it when i get closer to posting it, but.
sometimes there's conflict between a special agent and a man who was born to be a criminal
~~
“The institution you’ve sold your life to is far more corrupt than I ever have been or ever will be. Do you know how much of what’s seized during busts never makes it into the evidence lockers? Do you know how many people have been abused and killed by this system? The people you put away, do you ever think about what happens to them after?”
“I’m trying to do the right thing,” Chay says. There’s fight in his voice, still, despite how quietly his words are spoken. 
“...I know,” Kim sighs, “But, Bambi, there’s no ‘right thing’ in this system. No one’s hands are clean. The people at the top? They’re the most dangerous of all, they’re the ones with the most blood on their hands. And they don’t care about people like me and you, and they don’t care about our crusades or our vendettas or the injustices we've suffered or any of the people we’ve lost. They don’t care about you, and they never will, no matter how much you do for them or how many criminals you put behind bars.”
