{Normal Life AU} Ten years after Jake abandoned Dirk when he was 15, Jake suddenly comes back into the picture, asking for a second chance. Will Dirk accept?

Seriously Ill Poetry (Davekat) by crystalline-baby

Karkat needs help in English class, and as it turns out, Dave Strider is all he's got. Typical. Fuck descriptions, just read it (please).

<3// Pen..Pals? //<> - (A DirkJake Fanfiction) by AllTheFandomFics

Being just friends might work online. But suppressing your emotions in person is much more difficult. Dirk and Jake are the closest friends... As pen pals, but when there's a plot twist in their lives and they start communicating in person something changes in Dirk's mind.

Snow. ((DirkJake oneshot)) by Censored4YourSafety

Dirk goes up to visit the Egbert-Crockers in Washington with Jake for Christmas for the first time in a couple of years. It just so happens that he arrives a couple days before a big snowstorm. It just so happens that Dirk has never seen snow in person before. Needless to say, many fluffy fun-times ensue.

Mine by zo1515

So this was supposed to be a short Dave X Dirk but some people wanted more so now there's some more plot. Prompt: could you possibly do one where Dirk and Jake break up, and Dirk is heart broken while Dave tries to cheer him up, then some stridercest? My Response: Sorry this took so long. I know this was asked like 2 months ago, but I have a really hard time making my old laptop work and I'm not even posting this off of my regular laptop. So it will take me some time to post things until I get that new laptop most likely at the beginning of next year.
