    Summary

    When Valerius receives a letter stating he must get married or risk losing his estate, he proposes a deal to the apprentice that she just can’t refuse. As the weeks pass, however, can the two keep their relationship strictly business? Or can pleasure, and maybe even love, find a place in the Consul’s estate?

    Summary

    There’s more to their banter than meets the eye, though, tonight. It’s apparent in the languid way their gazes linger on each other’s, longer than they usually would; in the way they lean closer to each other whenever the other speaks; in the little touches, fingers running gently over the silky material of Asra’s scarf, an unhurried hand on Julian’s shoulder. The man’s jaw clenches and unclenches at every little brush from Asra, his Adam’s apple bobbing as he swallows.

    ...

    Or in which all three make confessions and it eventually leads to sex (and more). Plot? I don't know her.

    Summary

    Kirishima worked his ass off to get his big break in My Hero Academia, and he knows that he should keep his head down and be satisfied with that. But he also knows more than anyone how his character is being portrayed, and he’s sick and tired of being reduced to subtext. If he can get Bakugou to pretend to date him, he might be able to pressure the studio into giving him the gay representation he deserves.

    He knows the studio executives won’t give in without a fight. But Kirishima can’t anticipate how his relationship affects everyone around him.

    Summary

    Never mind that he won’t be of age for another year-and-then-some. Never mind that he’s sixteen with bandages still wrapped around his chest and a more intimate knowledge of war than these men will ever have. He wasn’t old enough for his first Agni Kai. He isn’t old enough for the crown. No one batted an eye then, they don’t now. The prayer shawl is a familiar weight on his shoulders. 

    (Youth is no excuse, the generals hiss to one another.

    You will learn respect, a palm of flames says.) 

    [Or: the war is over and it should be a relief.]

    Titles taken from and inspired by ‘To Build a Home’ by The Cinematic Orchestra
