    Summary

    Operating radio communications on a Resistance base is precisely the kind of thankless job that you feel you deserve after escaping the ghosts of your past… Until the night that the mundanity is disrupted by an untraceable incoming call: the last testament of a dying stranger, stranded somewhere across the stars.

    Through quick thinking and a bit of luck, you’re able to send rescue to the mysterious man on the other end of the line—but when he turns out to be none other than Poe Dameron, poster boy of the Resistance, your life on D’Qar is about to be thrown into chaos.

    Summary

    “You’re married?” The words are barely more than a whisper.

    “Hm?” Rooster looks over at him, clearly lost in thought.

    “You got married?” His heart breaks, thinking about how his kid got married and he wasn’t there to see it.

    “Oh, that? I guess… yeah I guess I am.”

    “You guess?”

    -

    In which you and Rooster got married while at UVA for the military benefits. What started out as a mutually beneficial deal between friends years ago turns into a point of interest for Maverick, causing Rooster to have to haul you out to Fightertown to get him to shut up. While Maverick’s fussing over a marriage he didn’t know existed, Rooster’s focused on getting the ball rolling on divorce papers because really, the Navy does not need to be calling some poor girl from his college that he’s died in a horrendous accident. It’s proving to be more difficult than he expected, especially when Hangman and Phoenix take it upon themselves to encourage a friendship to become more.

    title comes from tommy lefroy's "flight risk"

    Summary

    "Bucky thinks there are some decisions that even people like him can’t come back from, and he thinks that she’s probably one of them. She is sweet and bright-eyed and reckless and beautiful and makes him feel more alive than he has in the past century and she is so entirely too—
    Too young, he thinks, too innocent, too stubbornly, ridiculously good."

    Summary

    "I wouldn't have chosen you. This. If I-- if I had a choice, I mean," you say, holding back the instinctive and visceral urge to flinch at how fragile your voice sounds. "I just-- you deserve to know that."

    And--

    You know the science, you know that you can't, by any logical means, actually feel any of your soulmate's emotions, but you imagine for a second the burn and the ache of some bittersweet combination of sadness and resignation. An acceptance of fate. Guilt tugs at your gut, pulling and twisting your stomach into knots, and you have to fight down the sudden desire to take the words back; you don't, of course, because it wouldn't be fair if you did. Wouldn't be true.
    [OR: Pietro is what you're stuck with, and you don't like it, at first. That changes.]

    Summary

    You don’t have a crush on him. It’s not like you’re still interested, like that, in even just the general category of person that crush had represented. And the person sitting in the lobby isn’t the person– the fiction– you’d even felt that type of way about, anyways. You don’t know him, and he’s obviously nothing like the guy memorialized in every Captain America docudrama miniseries on Netflix.
    No, James Buchanan Barnes is a real human being, a very different human being, one that’s a stranger to you and you think probably just as much of a stranger to that other, safer, softer, more boyish version of himself.

     

    The person you see— because you do, you see him, he can’t stay away— is a controlled facade, with all of his wants pushed deep under the surface. The empty husk of a pomegranate, white and clean, all that red stripped out, each little piece a desire he knows he shouldn’t have.
    But you want it. The husk and the fruit, the insides, glittering like rubies. Like drops of blood.
