Summary
“This is your collar. It means that for tonight, you belong to me. You’re mine, Gwen.” Morgana stared into her eyes, and Gwen felt broken-open, and more vulnerable than she’d been in a long time.

Summary
“Rather late, aren’t we Merlin?” Arthur inquired dryly, not looking up from his work.
Merlin shifted, he couldn’t concentrate on their usual banter, all he could think about was his aching bladder, and how easy it would be for him to just let go right here, and the expression Arthur would wear if he did…

Summary
Merlin and Arthur spend the day in, playing games and having fun. They're both a bit prideful and a tad competitive, so when it's time for Mario Kart will there be peace, or will there be a take-no-prisoners bloodthirsty battle to the death? Or to the bed?

Summary
Bishop Takes Knight—Historical Suit of Armor Disappears Without A Trace!
Nolan can’t help but trace his fingers over the grainy image beneath the headline, the familiar business card, and the even more familiar shape stamped on it. The Bishop. Our bishop, he thinks, and shudders a little bit, feeling strangely indecent sitting out here in public touching his fingers to the image of his soulmark, their soulmark, a shape that must have been copied faithfully from the naked skin of his other half.
There in the paper, for anyone to look at—but not for anyone else to understand. A secret message just for him. Intimate and brazen; connecting them across countries, timezones, crime scenes.
--
Or, Nolan thinks he's been flirting with his soulmate-slash-professional rival for the last few years until he realizes he actually has two soulmates. And they've already found each other.

Summary
Draco shifts his head as he turns to look at Scorpius, his cheek touching the pillow. "Did you know that…" He pauses, his throat convulsing, and it sounds audible in the silence, besides Michael's steady, even breathing from the other bedroom.
Scorpius is staring back at him, in wait of something new to learn, a beautiful and intelligent child. He has Draco's mind. He has Draco's eyes and nose and mouth and hair. He is his. All his. All he has of Michael are his wild curls and the green of his eyes, and sometimes he looks into them and imagines that they aren't Michael's, but someone else's.
Draco leans his head closer, biting the quiver out of his lips before he breathes a laden and shuddering exhale, and he whispers, "You are my star in a big black sky."

Summary
After that, it’s muscle memory: force his limbs to remember their routine motions, thrust an arm out to accept the bundle of fabric, strip off his kit for his Richmond zip-up and trackkies, tuck away his boots, slide on his trainers, don’t bother to shower, would rather do it at home when he can stay under the water long enough to pretend that he’s drowning. Try not to think about don’t speak to me like that. Try not to think about you can have that one for free. Try not to think about a room full of strained, stunned faces, and no one saying a thing, just watching and watching; Then fire pulsing through Roy Kent’s hands and lighting up his skin.
In the aftermath of the FA cup semifinal against Man City, Jamie Tartt burns.
