Summary
His voice came out jaded, “I can’t believe you, of all people, you are like me.”
He was jaded because Steve was telling him he’d felt the same heartache. He was sure the feeling would morph back into comradery, but right now, it was indignation. Men like Steve had everything, and now he had this too. Steve was right; he wasn’t a freak; he wasn’t special. He was just a normal fucking guy with self-cut bangs and bad tattoos. This was all he had, and somehow Steve had commandeered that too.”
OR
A story in which Steve is relentless in picking Eddie apart as they walk through The Upside Down. Eddie folds, obviously.

Summary
When good luck hit Eddie, first by Billy Hargrove waking him up in the Upside Down, then by figuring out a plan to actually get back, executing that plan to success and crawling out of Lover's Lake only to find Steve Harrington eating a bag of chips whilst he sat on the front of his car. He didn't know quite what to do with it. He simply sat at the water's edge as the sun went down, breathed in a way he'd almost forgotten how to and watched Billy Hargrove shake Steve mercilessly by the shoulders before Steve dropped his chips and slapped him across the face in shock.
---
In September 1986, Eddie Munson and Billy Hargrove find themselves on the shore of Lover's Lake, only to be found by Steve Harrington.

Summary
Shrugging, Tom retorted, executing the final ‘g’ in his name as if it had gotten caught in his throat, “What, Greg? Did you drag Logan’s bloated corpse across to London, Weekend at Bernie’s style so I could have one last goodbye cuddle with my ex-father in law?”
“I thought you’d be happy to see me after five years,” he shrugged, imitating Tom but making himself a little smaller in the process, “Y’know after everything?”
Everything. After everything. There needed to be another word, more robust than everything, to describe simply how everything all that was.
It was exhausting just to try and skirt around it every day, and here it was towering over him as the corpse of Larry Bird being haunted by the ghost of a Victorian child.
“I’m absolutely thrilled, Greg or was that not obvious?”
“It’s not obvious”

Summary
A post-season 3 Tom/Shiv couple's therapy session.
Tom’s eyes flitted over to Shiv, too paralysed to move anything else.
“Are you jealous of Tom?”
Shiv’s eyes widened as she comprehended Tamara’s, their therapist's question, and instinctively she barked out a “Hah!” as all Roy’s did when confronted with the notion that there was something in the world that did not and could not belong to them. Eventually, that laugh turned into a pitiful, “Yes.”This work is taken from chapter 6 of The Olive Press

Summary
“Okay, Joseph, Caesar, we think it’s your turn now.”
The two girls looked at each other's kiss bitten lips once again whilst Joseph tried to process what she had said. Once they'd finished admiring each other's paint smeared handiwork, they focused that heavy gaze upon Joseph and Caesar.
Joseph looked to his side, chartreuse irises of the enigmatic near stranger peering at him half lidded through white eyelashes. His own eyes probably looked wild, deer in the headlights kind of affair, waiting for Bear Grylls to come and wear his pelt like a sleeping bag at the prospect of putting on some kind of show with one of the hottest guys he had ever seen.
“Come on don’t be shy boys, what happens in Miami and all that”
A gratuitous spring break au where Joseph and Caesar deal with a couple of barriers.

Summary
"I don't need to make everyone I fuck fall in love with me." Caesar found himself laughing at the idea that all sex had to be romantic. Sometimes the roughest fucks were the most cathartic. Joseph merely let out a scoff at the not so humble brag.
“Are you a prude, Joseph?”“Absolutely not! I just… haven’t…”
Was Joseph Joestar really admitting that he was a virgin. In such a compromising position no less. Maybe this was the moment Caesar finally ascended, not on the battlefield in the heat of a fight, not beaten and bloody after giving it his all, merely dressed in a leotard in a dance studio while Jojo struggled desperately to hide his straining erection, it wasn't a warrior's death, but he could accept it.
"I'm going to be kind to you Joseph and not make you finish that sentence."

Summary
As they walked around the perimeter of the unit, the warrior looked over at Wulf. The redheaded man adjusted the hilt of his sword in its sheath and started, “I hear the king-”
Wulf lifted his head to look at the man who now had a wolfish smile across his face, “I heard the king has a harem full of lads, is that true?”
Wulf didn’t respond to the smile, only to the question, “Yes, his highness doesn’t want to run the risk of fathering any bastards.”
“Cautious” The man responded as they both dipped their heads under low hanging branches.
Wulf grumbled in recognition.
“I also heard all the lads look alike, blonde-”
Interrupting immediately, Wulf barked, “I think you should exercise some caution of your own.”
A canon compliant exploration of Canute’s story during the events of Vinland Saga.
Each chapter includes new art.On hiatus but not dropped.

Summary
It wasn’t love. It was companionship. It was a warm hand and body for a man who’d not felt tenderness since childhood and a sense of agency for a man who’d led his entire life believing he had none.
A series of vignettes of when Thorfinn and Canute found comfort in one another. -

Summary
“Damnit-” Erwin mumbled under his breath as the tie on his thoroughly bandaged hand became loose, starchy cotton tendrils hanging down to his wrist. He held it up to his lips and pulled at the bandage with his teeth and his spare hand.
Levi desperately didn’t want to help but he couldn’t just stand by while someone did something like this. He didn’t let Erwin live for him to be killed by an infected wound a month later, “You’re disgusting.”
He pulled the wrapped hand away from Erwin’s surprised face, resulting in his teeth clicking together on contact. Pulling the bandage tight again, he re-tied the gauze with quick precision of nimble fingers and then wiped his hands dramatically on his trousers, “That’s going to scar.”
“Thanks”, Erwin mouthed after inspecting the knot and Levi merely shrugged, both of them seemingly forgetting that Levi was the cause of the offending bandage in the first place.
A semi-canon retelling and fix it of Levi Ackerman's and Erwin Smith's relationship.(tags will be added as they apply)

Summary
Although he didn’t think so for a while, Bucky's started to believe that he is infact entirely human again, at least in the parts that matter. But Steve? Steve couldn’t be human at all, in fact Bucky was sure from the day he’d met Steven Rogers that he was something entirely more ineffable.
The short smutty sequel to Buck Rogers in the 21st Century . Although this is a sequel it can be read as a standalone.

Summary
So, in the imagination of a man, who’d thought about his timely and somewhat welcome demise like he thought about what to cook for dinner. This man who’d thought it through it so methodically and mundanely like from counting from one to a billion out loud, to die by his own hand was one thing he had considered, but that hand being attached to a version of himself that he’d met in 2012 whilst trying to retrieve a stolen magical gemstone from his co-worker’s adopted brother, all in pursuit of saving half the universe 11 years in the future? Well, that was like finding out there was a new number neatly nestled between 3 and 4 and having to start counting all over again.
Steve Rogers comes face to face with himself in 2012, in some ways he likes what he meets. Mostly he just thinks about punching him.

Summary
Steve knows a lot about college. He knows not to slack off until he knows which teachers to slack off with. He knows not to leave his laundry in the machines overnight. He knows that he’s going to gain 10lbs and get sick. He knows not to sleep with his roommates, which shouldn’t be too difficult as his only roommate is Sam and the mice that live in the kitchen cupboards of their freshman accommodation. He’s read about it and he’s watched enough movies, he’s got this college thing in the bag. That's until a sharp-witted guy with an even sharper jawline comes into his life, there's not enough list-acles or Reddit threads in the world that can prepare him for that.
Completed but currently reworking (Chapters 1-7 done)

Summary
She tapped her fingers on the thick wool of her skirt and smirked to carefully reset the momentum, she wasn’t about to let the anticipation of tomorrow ruin today. “Okay, who fucked who?” she purred, with a shit eating grin splayed across her features.
“I can’t believe you just asked me that,” Steve announced with the composure of a man who was slipping on ice.
“Go on,” she pressed, her voice low and annoyingly devilish.
“Bucky and me, we switched but uh, I always liked -”
“Getting fucked” She said matter of factually, popping her shoe on her foot.
“Yeah” Steve nodded, his entire body dripping with Red Dye No.5.
She popped on the other shoe and stood up again, and gracefully placed her hands on her hips.
“Interesting.”

Summary
Bucky cleared his throat before speaking to Steve. He’d thought of what he would say as the first words as himself, James ‘Bucky’ Barnes to Steve Rogers in well over 70 years. He thought about pulling him aside and telling him that amongst the irrational chaos of the universe, amongst the birth and death of stars, the fall of countries, the rise of regimes , against time itself, that they had lived and died together many lifetimes ago and yet in face of impossibility were pulled together under every possibility, their fates intertwined in the forge of a supernova, and that had to mean something.
Bucky mustered, “You look terrible.”
Close enough.
