Summary
After losing his husband four years ago, Charlie Spring has worked hard to build a comfortable new life for himself: two adorable dogs, a cozy cabin in his hometown, and a rewarding job archiving the works of local gay poet Finn Bryson. But when a film company decides to adapt Bryson's life into a movie, Charlie is hired to help prepare the lead actor. Nick Nelson is a stunningly handsome, wildly popular film star—but as far as Charlie can tell, he's also a world-class snob.
AU with fluff, flirting, karaoke, hayrides, Taco Bell, and a lot of bad disguises.
Also some angst! But always a happy ending.**Complete at Chapter 36, anything beyond is a deleted scene**

Summary
Percy finally has a friend who is completely and entirely normal. Someone around whom he doesn't have to be a demigod hero. Carter Kane is about as mortal as they come, and Percy intends to keep his secret from his new friend for as long as he can.
Carter finally has a friend entirely unrelated to the magical side of his life. Someone he doesn't have to share with Sadie or save the world with. Percy Jackson is the furthest thing from a magician, and Carter is determined to keep Percy very separate from any and all mythology.

Or: Two idiots try to protect each other from the dangerous magical aspects of their double-lives without realizing that the other is just as wrapped up in crazy mythological stuff as they are. And maybe they end up falling in love somewhere along the way.

Summary
He was not an idiot, and soon enough, he noticed it too. When Mina broke up with Kiri, Katsuki was the first one at his side. He stayed in the redhead’s room for hours, consoling him and giving him a shoulder to cry on. He canceled training with Izuku to get Kirishima back on his feet. He pushed back their dates to cook dinner for him. He disregarded Izuku’s texts to spend time with him.
And Izuku, tragically, understood.
As the first petal tumbled from his busted lips after returning from patrol one March evening in their third year, he understood perfectly.

Summary
Romance is a lot easier to write about than it is to put into practice, and Eddie is the world’s most ridiculous living example of that. He can practically hear the kind of jokes that Shannon would make about it, if he ever told her about the books but - he didn’t. And somehow, probably just because he didn’t start writing until after they weren’t living together anymore, she never found out.
There’s actually only a handful of people in the world who know that Eddie is a writer - and more specifically, that he’s E. Diaz, one of the bestselling romance authors on the market.
or - the one where everything in canon is the same, except eddie diaz is secretly a bestselling romance author, and nobody knows. Yet.

Summary
Inspired by Date Me, Bryson Keller.
Everyone knows about the bet. Each week, Nick Nelson, the Rugby King of Truham Grammar, must date someone new — the first person to ask him out on Monday morning. Until a boy asks him out, and everything changes.
Charlie Spring is shocked when Nick agrees to secretly date him. But as the week goes by, Charlie discovers there's more to Nick than he'd previously realized, and the fake dating starts to feel an awful lot like real dating. As he gets in deeper and deeper, can Charlie deal with the fact that this relationship will end after one week? After all, Nick is popular, handsome and straight. Right?
