    Summary

    “No,” said Robb, rubbing the bridge of his nose. God, he loved his family, but sometimes he dreamed of being an only child. “No one is murdering anyone, especially not you, Rickon. You’re nine.”
    “No one would ever suspect me if I did it,” said Bran, looking up from his books.
    Jon rolled his eyes. “Bran, you’re in a wheelchair.”
    “Exactly. I’d be in court all, oh boo hoo, I was tragically injured at such a young age, look at me, how could you think I did it?”
    “How would you do it?” said Arya, with too much interest.
    “I’d bait him into stealing my wheelchair and then push him off a cliff in it.”

    Or - Sansa is bringing someone home for Christmas. Robb is hopelessly pining after his best friend. Ned Stark is trying his hardest to be a supportive father, and Jon is done with everyone.

    Summary

    There are a few people doing loads and folding clothes, but they fall into faceless shapes and blurs. Bucky stops registering Sam standing beside him. He can't hear the whirl of the dryers running round and round. There, putting his collared shirts into the washer, is Helmut Zemo. His brown hair is parted down the side. His hoodie is blue and halfway zipped, hugging his figure.

    He can't breathe.

    OR

    Bucky finds out that he and Zemo go to the same college. Chaos ensues.

    Hello, James, the letter reads. Have the nightmares stopped? It’s odd, Bucky thinks, that he thought himself free.

    Marvel: "So, like, Sokovia is basically Serbia, but also it's definitely not Serbia, but also it is sort of Serbia. It's Serbia-adjacent. Serbia-esque."

    Summary

    Helmut Zemo invites Bucky for a two week vacation to sunny Los Angeles with the promise of luxury, good food, and sex. At first glance, it doesn't seem very different from their usual meetups.

    Of course, there's a catch. There's always a catch.

    Summary

    “What is the matter, my heart?” Joe asks as he holds you now, sweat slowly cooling on your naked skin. He strokes your arm with the tip of his fingers, as if tracing a pattern. “You seem... away.” He kisses your neck, his beard burning and healing you all the same. “Tell me, where are you hiding?”

    “When.” You answer with a snort. You can be funny sometimes as well. “It’s July, the wall just came down.”

    Summary

    “Are we friends now?” Joe asks. Nicky reaches up to pat Joe on the back, shifting his weight through his hips so he’s got enough power to push Joe into the water. When Joe comes up, spluttering, hair hanging lank across his face, he stares at Nicky, who looks back at him with a lopsided smile.

    “Now we’re friends.”

     
    Ten years, two best friends, one couch that seems to have its own agenda. Friends-to-lovers with all the trimmings.

    Summary

    “What does God want from us?” Nicolo asks.

    Yusuf lays down beside him. They stare up at the clear night sky. “Many of the men here laid siege to Antioch, once,” Yusuf says, or at least thinks he does. “Now you do. The stars are the same. If God cared, he would change them.”

    “You think God does not care what we do?”

    “God created this world,” Yusuf says, gesturing up to the stars. “It is beautiful. I do not need more from him.”

    Summary

    Joe is having a very taxing day.

    In fairness, no one expects to begin the day by coming face-to-face with one’s lover’s estranged family, standing on the doorstep when one had been expecting the postman, or perhaps the drunk Frenchman from next door.

    Summary

    And last but not least: Prof. al-Kaysani got married last week! And while he has explicitly asked for no fuss to be made, we have organised a small gift and a card that you are all welcome to sign. It will be on my desk until September 7th.

    Best,

    Dr. Quynh Pham
    Course Leader BA (Hons) Curating

    Summary

    The first time, they do not kiss.

    Yusuf does not know if a man like Nicolò even wants to be kissed. He understands the moonlight-pale stares from across the fire, understands the hesitant touch on the inside of his thigh that sparked this, but still, they do not kiss.

    It’s been six years since they’ve met, a year since they’ve last tried killing each other, and Yusuf refuses to wait any longer.
