    Summary

    Dana was already explaining: "Mohan was asking if this guy's single," she said, hooking a thumb Jack's way.

    Robby lit up like he'd just gotten a gift, turning bemused eyes his way. "Oh, was she," he drawled, enjoying this.

    Dana made an indulgent noise. "Apparently she's very taken with our dear Dr. Abbot and wondered if the feeling is mutual." They both looked to Jack then, Dana long-suffering, Robby delighted.

    Fuck Jack's life, honestly.

    Summary

    "I want to be alone, Jack," Robby said, short and sharp and pissy.

    Fucking great. Apparently in the 45 minutes since Jack had last seen him, Robby had gone from devastation to anger. This would be fun.

    "It's nice to want things," he drawled, deliberately light. "I wanted to walk out of Iraq on my own two feet, but hey. No plan survives contact with the enemy and all that."

    Robby turned then, looking at him over the top of the couch, face drawn, eyes dark in the low lights. "Yeah? You my enemy?"

    Summary

    "I know what a breakup looks like," Daniel says. "The better question is, why are you coming to me about it? I'm the one who broke up your little sham."

    "This is what humans do, don't they?" Armand asks, letting his voice drop. "Crashing on their friends' couches when there's a blip in their romances?"

    "Except we're not friends. We're actually very much not friends." Daniel shrugs, as if it's all the same to him. "And I can't imagine the great vampire Armand deigning himself to sleep on my fucked-up sofa. That thing's been here since the nineties."

    "Well," Armand only says. "I saw you have a guest bedroom."

    Summary

    Nevertheless, he is not entirely sure he can trust him...

    Summary

    “You are not particularly subtle with your glances,” he says. And there: a real smile crosses Gil-Galad’s face.

     

    Elrond's stomach quivers at the warmth in Gil-Galad’s expression. He turns even redder and breathes a laugh. “No, I never did have an ounce of guile.”

     

    Elrond needs to be taken apart a bit. Ereinion Gil-Galad is more than happy to oblige.

    Summary

    “Gil-galad knew he would die,” she whispered softly, reaching a hand up to stroke Elrond’s cheek, “But he knew also that you could be trusted with Vilya. And you are the last descendant of Fingolfin. He wanted you to be High King - as do I, my love.”

    ---

    Or, following Gil-galad's death, Elrond and Galadriel pressure each other to accept the kingship. But perhaps Gil-galad was the last High King of the Noldor in Middle Earth, and the time has come for them to lead their separate realms?

    Summary

    “I cannot escape him, Elrond,” she murmured after a long moment, tears staining his shirt. “My dreams become nightmares, and I cannot sleep. And when I am awake, I am haunted by him.”

    “Let me guard your dreams, then,” he offered, holding her close. He was greatly disturbed by her fear. In all the years he had known her, he had never seen her truly afraid. Not like this.

    “I thought you might care for company.”

    “I do not.”

    Summary

    Peter lost a lot of things in Boston. When he lists them out, they fit in the margins of his napkin; his career, his degree, his motivation, his boyfriend, and himself. Not in that order. Not all by mistake.

    “You’re just a secretary.” Tony tuts.

    “There’s nothing wrong with being a secretary,” Peter says. “Your old secretary is the CEO of SI, these days.”

    “Pepper Potts is the smartest woman I’ve ever met,” Tony agrees. “And she never let anyone call her ‘just a secretary.’”

    Summary

    He stares down at it, momentarily deaf to the sound of her voice and the page she is reading. Her hand is so small and yet there is so much power in her touch, he can feel it.

    It is as though there’s a light flowing from her fingertips, the life force of a burning sun pouring out of her and basking him in warmth.

    Summary

    “It’s only the first year,” Rhaenyra used to say, broken down at the breakfast table by the window in their London flat with her head in her hands. “It’ll get better, after this. We just need to right our ship.”

    It was loving in the beginning.
