Summary
"That fucking chin dimple," Santos had scoffed upon falling into her seat. Mel didn’t think much at first, just cracked open her seltzer. "No idea how many times I’ve pictured riding it to shut him up."
(or, Mel bluescreens when confronted with the idea of Frank's chin dimple pressed to a certain part of her body)

Summary
Bucky does not waver, will not doubt. In his dreams, his hair falls to his shoulders, braided like a woman’s, and he feels his breath come more deeply than anything he takes while waking.
Helio’s light is that which bleaches the fields, which burns the unholy, which demands he stand as upright and exemplary as any paladin, that he not doubt. No matter that he has lied to his parents. No matter that Kristen was — nice to him, almost, even if her words were riddled with sin, even if she delighted in profanity, even if the twilight that suffused her was so cool it almost felt like relief. Even if she looked at Bucky like he was still just a kid, not almost the man of the house, not the eldest child now that — well. — like he was still growing, becoming, changing. No. Helio demanded that he stand tall, now, unwavering. Like one more corn stalk in that empty, holy field.
Bucky Applebees, on doubt, which is hope, which is freedom.
(The "Bucky as paladin of Cassandra" fic.)

Summary
“I could devour you,” Samiel says gently, and Jay can feel the heat of his words sinking into his translator. “Won't you let me, pretty human? I'd make it ever so good for you.” His voice is intimate, filthy; that of a lover. Of a predator that has caught its prey.
Or:
Wing Commander Jason Lane is doing his best. He's got a political coup to stop; a peace treaty to negotiate; half a planet out to kill him and - oh yes, Samiel.
Always, Samiel.

Summary
Batman's heartbeat keeps speeding up whenever Clark is around. For instance: when Clark greets him, half-naked, on a Gotham rooftop. Or when he uses his superstrength to save a busload of schoolchildren. Or sometimes even just when he smiles.
Clearly the poor man is terrified of him.

Summary
The media has always been wary of Harry Osborn. He grew up as modern royalty, rich and famous and son to a greedy billionaire tech mogul, which didn't paint the most sympathetic picture. He's too posh, too surly, too serious.
And then there is Peter. The orphan kid from Brooklyn Tony Stark adopted as his heir, the charming, upbeat young man with a tragic backstory, with the kind of rags-to-riches story the media fell in love with. He’s a genius, but he’s humble, and he’s handsome, but not in the waifish-Victorian-orphan way that Harry has going for him, but in a classic, American, boy-next-door way.
With a dichotomy like that, with Norman and Tony Stark’s famous feuds back in the nineties, and with Stark Industries and Oscorp being the top tech innovators in the game, it’s only natural that Harry Osborn and Peter Stark be rivals. It's a good story. Harry can't even blame the tabloids. Peter makes sense as the hero, and if that makes Harry the villain, then so be it.
*
No superheroes AU where Peter Stark is supposed to be Harry's rival, but Peter Parker has always been something else.

Summary
They've been working without the best hacker in the world for long enough that Eliot can't really see the point in bringing him on the team. But what Nate wants, he gets, and Nate wants Hardison's help on this. It's up to Eliot and Parker to draw him in, but they don't expect him to catch them along the way.
~~~
Eliot realizes they have a problem, but he's not sure how to voice it. The thing is...Hardison is just so nice. For the world's best hacker, he's an all around good guy, and there's an innocence to him. Like the horrors of the world haven't been able to reach him.
Parker looks up at him and Eliot knows what passes between them. Concern. They can't pull off this con if they end up wanting to protect the mark. That's not how these things work. And yet.
"We can't tell Nate," Parker whispers.
Eliot nods. "Sophie can never know."

It seems horribly fitting that when Marta’s soulbond arrives, it’s in the most absurdly ridiculous, horrible way imaginable. It involves the Thrombeys, so of course something that should be wonderful just ends up being terrible in the end.

Summary
By the tender and vicious age of four years old, Jeannemary Chatur had internalized three fundamental facts about her life:
She was destined to ship out with the Cohort and bring glory to the Emperor and her House;
She represented a long line of Cavaliers and was fiercely proud of her name and her role; and
Her necromancer sucked.Technically, he wasn't her necromancer yet. Technically there was a ceremony and an oath and Jeannemary would have to prove herself in order to be sworn in partnership to the then-three-and-a-half year old scion of the Fourth House, but: come on, everyone knew where this was going.
or, How Jeannemary Chatur Learned to Like Her Necromancer.

So, the first thing that happens is Castiel comes back.
~~~
"Right," Dean says eventually, gruffly. He looks down at his shoes. "I'm not gonna tell you how to live your life, man. It's—you know, yours. Do your thing, love who you love, whatever. I can't really stop you from loving me, if that's what you've decided to do, but I don't—I can't—"
"I know," Castiel murmurs, still just smiling a little, not looking heartbroken at all. "Don't worry about it, Dean, that's all I ask."
"So we're—" Dean risks a glance up, swallowing thickly. "We're good?"
Castiel hums. "We're good."

Undetonated by IShipThem

Summary
The operation to the Ninth House has been a failure to all involved. Commander Wake failed to deliver her bomb, and Gideon the First failed to kill her.
He did succeed, however, in stranding her broken shuttle.
Alone, drifting without thrust or communications in deep space, Wake has dwindling options. There’s a limited supply of oxygen and food. There’s no way to tell if rescue is coming.
And the cryochamber housing her undetonated bomb had to go and fucking break.

Summary
She feels like he’s peeling every layer of her being, one by one by one. And when he gets to her bones, he’ll find something she’ll never be able to run away from.
“…you,” the stranger says, his hands flexing into fists. Unclenching again. “You are…”
Gideon holds her breath. She doesn’t know why she thinks so, but it seems to her that Harrow does as well.
The corner of the man’s lips twitches up in a smile.
“You’re the spitting image of your mother.”

Or: what if Pyrrha rescued Gideon from the Ninth as a child?

Summary
Instead of burning the witches, Thedas thought it civilized itself by locking them up in dismal, dark prisons and preaching sermons about the wickedness of magic. And when war erupts, every weapon from guns to hexes are fair play. The Champion of Kirkwall, the one free witch in Southern Thedas, vanishes into thin air as war consumes Orlais and Ferelden. The Seekers will do anything to bring Hawke back, and if that means taking her best friend into custody...
Varric Tethras didn't count on many things, but nobody saw Maria Cadash coming. The Carta thug from Ostwick keeps secrets of her own tight to her chest while stepping in as an unlikely unifying force in a world gone mad. The only question is whether the people who call her Herald can save her from the past that threatens to incinerate the woman who could save the world.
While rated E, most of this work falls squarely within the M rating. Explicit Sexual Content will be marked with a * in the chapter title.
