Summary
Carlos disappears through the opening and into the dining room. Owen hears the sounds of the table being set as he finishes chopping half a tomato. He grabs the cucumber when he’s done, and opens two drawers in search of a vegetable peeler. He finds one in the second drawer, but also finds something else.
Owen frowns. He looks closer, sure at first that he’s seeing things. But it’s unmistakable, upon further examination. It’s a small clear tube of sexual lubricant.Bookmarked by HeatherAB

Summary
“Are you sure you’re going to be okay here?”
Henry lowers his mug and watches as Alex overfills his thermos. He’s had two cups already, and the odds of him having more at the office are high.
“Here?” Henry asks as he tosses Alex a dishcloth to mop up the coffee. “In our home?”
“In this house…all the way out here…alone.”
“I’m not a child, Alex,” Henry says, affronted. “I don’t require a babysitter.”
“I know that,” Alex says, “I know that. It’s just…you grew up in a palace. You had people everywhere. Now you’re just…alone out here.”
“I can assure you that when I was growing up, I was alone, plenty.”
Alex groans. “Oh god, please don’t say that. That makes me so sad.”
Or.
5 times Henry works to make their house a home +1 time Alex realizes it's been home all along.

Summary
“TK, your lizard got out. Again.”
Lou II might just be the Houdini of lizards, an escape artist par excellence – but he’s also TK’s emotional support lizard, so how could Carlos not start to like the little monster? It certainly has nothing to do with TK’s ways of bribery or attempts at conditioning him, and more with the fact that Lou II is just… growing on him. Even if that means loads and loads of extra laundry.

Blood on the tracks, fire in the hills by orphan_account

Summary
Carlos made his way to the victim’s bedroom, located down a narrow corridor, across from an equally cramped bathroom. The very first thing he saw after stepping through the doorway was T.K. Strand, slumped in a chair in the corner of the room, drenched in blood.
Carlos’s knees gave out so abruptly that he had to grab for the frame to catch himself before he hit the ground. “No,” he heard himself say, in a voice that didn’t sound anything like him.
(Fifteen months after they broke up, Carlos and T.K. are thrown together again at the scene of a murder.)

Sweet Dreams and Flying Machines by carlos-in-glasses (stormwriting)

Summary
The past becomes a thunderous echo when TK misses his mom’s funeral after his plane makes an emergency landing, while Carlos spirals thinking he’ll never see TK again. Safe on the ground, TK and Carlos hold each other up as they face the day’s trauma and begin a future that is somehow even more crowded with love.
Carlos bounces out of the hanger coltishly, his limbs loose as jelly, heading in the vague direction towards which the T.S.A. agent wafted an arm. It takes him a hideous moment to clock TK, alone inside an expanding circle made of fellow first responders and passengers wearing shock blankets, bewildered and milling around. There he is – directly in the sunshine, glowing gold and alive. Carlos stops because the sight of him takes his breath. His heartbeat pounds in his ears. He doesn’t even feel himself launch into a run, but the warm air thumps against him as he moves faster than he has ever moved – his limbs firm now, muscles powerful, carrying him to the center of his world. Carlos runs, and as he runs the heartbeat in his ears changes to words. He hears his voice and he hears TK’s, whooshing in the wind.
Hey, wanna dance?
Yeah.Bookmarked by HeatherAB
