    Summary

    “So you want me to marry Cooper Howard?”

    He shakes his head, laughing under his breath. “Marry? No, no, lets play that by ear,” he assures you. “What we want — need — you two to do is make it look like you’ve been having an affair.” You must look like you’ve seen a ghost. This is insane. “Explains his divorce, gets people talking about you two as a pair, gets eyes on this movie you’re filming together — now, don’t go outright saying it, of course. We just wanna’ make people read between the lines, get them curious enough to get them into the theater to see the chemistry on the screen...”

    ---

    When Cooper Howard finds himself scandalised by not just divorce, but allegations of anti-American sentiment, it falls to the studio system to try and squeeze what they can from him before he finds himself blacklisted. Fortunately, the only thing the press loves more than exposing a commie is a celebrity scandal -- and the studio has just the woman in mind to play the role of the other woman. Being seen with Cooper Howard while filming your breakthrough movie to get people talking? Easy. Doing the right thing when your career and dreams are on the line? ...Jury's out on that one, champ.

    Summary

    His rough fingers stole the cigarette from between your lips again, his fingers feeling warmer than the leather. It made your heart race. He pushed the cigarette to your lips again. The tips of his fingers caressing your lips, you looked up at him as he watched your lips wrap around the cigarette. You released the cigarette, the tip of your pretty pink tongue teased Cooper, and it was made even worse when it touched the skin of his finger.

    “Now, now baby bird, you don’t want to tease the cat,” He teased, his voice rough as he took his own drag, offering it back to you. You stole another drag, this time purposefully brushing your lips against his knuckles. He growled low in his chest, coming chest to chest with you. Your eyes were sparkling in the fluorescent lights of the town sign. You were beautiful and he could not deny that. He wanted to eat you right up, whether that was your skin or your pussy he was not sure. Like a little sugar bomb.

    “Been a long time since I’ve had mouth as sweet as yours.”

    His tone then grows sharp, as the metal digs into your skin, “Don’t make me regret it.”

    Summary

    Vaultie doesn’t talk much for the first couple of days.

    Coop tries not to dwell on it—lot easier for him, lot safer for them, if she keeps her mouth shut. Just…well, hell, it’s one of those things that niggles at him, twitching in the back of his mind like a worm on a hook. Dumb fuckin’ fish that he is, Coop lets it draw him in.

    Summary

    (Post-Season One.)

    Lucy had the sort of face girls in the movies had: clear skin, big eyes, and neat hair. Pretty — beautiful, actually, but not as a matter of compliment. Beautiful in the way she’d make a good price at any given market if he was inclined to sell her. Beautiful in the way people loved to exploit.

    Summary

    Cooper sews Lucy up after a surprise raider attack, and they get to know each other a little more~

    “Ain't no goin’ back after this, Sugar. You sure this is what you want?” Cooper asks her, and meets her eyes, “I ain't in the habit of sharing.”

    Lucy stares right back at him, heart thundering loudly in her chest as excitement and arousal pool in her gut. She reaches out, tangling her fingers in the tattered duster that Coop wears. She nods easily, “I want this. I want you."

    p.s. a healthy mix of the show and the games.

    “Pinky promises are for babies,” Daryl sniffs. “We gotta seal the deal with somethin’ else.”

    Summary

    “Kate, I know how difficult this must be, how difficult it must have been since you split up but-”
    “This isn’t difficult, Violet. It’s not. The man I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life with, turned to me one day, after we’d made dinner together, and told me we were over, that he didn’t love me anymore. No warning, nothing. He was just done. And now, they want me to pretend it never happened, and I still can’t fucking leave him, because I still love him. Difficult is vector calculus, or conjugating verbs. This isn’t difficult. This is impossible.”

    OR

    A year ago their relationship was perfect, at least Kate had thought it was until Anthony turned to her the day after her birthday and told her he couldn’t do this anymore. After two years together. And the worst part is now, after his accident: he doesn’t even remember. He just keeps telling her he’s going to marry her one day. All she’d wanted for a year was for Anthony to want her again, and now he does, she just wishes she wasn’t borrowing time.

    OR

    The Anthony nearly dies and somehow Kate suffers more, amnesia AU no one asked for

    Summary

    It’s a strange sort of seduction, practical instead of romantic, with hunting trips instead of dates and dead walkers instead of roses. Rick wonders if Daryl’s been doing it on purpose, or if it’s something that just happened, starting off so slow but picking up speed and momentum like an avalanche, sweeping them along in its wake.
