Summary
“Aha! I know just the tale,” Yusuf finally says, slapping the bed victoriously. “And I will bet it is even funnier than the one you just told.” Nicolò’s smile widens at that. Yusuf knows he can’t resist a good bet.
“What would be the prize for winning?” Nicolò asks, lifting one brow at Yusuf who grins at him, the kind of grin that makes his eyes crinkle at the corners. Nicolò loves him desperately.
“Suppose a kiss will do?” Yusuf asks. Nicolò pretends to think about it.
“I suppose so… though it will have to be a good one.”
---
One night, a few months after they first become lovers, Yusuf and Nicolò make a game out of which one of them can tell a funnier story about a past flame. However, the mood of their evening changes as Nicolò slowly notices that the story Yusuf starts telling is much darker than he seems to realize himself.

Summary
By the time Yusuf reached their door he was nauseous with nerves. Yusuf had been too much last night, he knew it. He always was. He had scared Nicolò away with his intensity, with the depth of feeling Nicolò had no hope to match. Nicolò had ran away, despite their shared immortality, because of course he would. Who wouldn’t? Yusuf could already picture it. The empty room, only an imprint on the mattress betraying that anyone else had ever been there at all.
Yusuf and Nicolò, before they can speak the same language but after they've already fallen in love

Summary
His skin feels like it’s burning where Nicky’s hand is on it.
“Let me help you,” Nicky says softly.
In his chest, Joe’s heart pounds.
Fuck, what’s he going to put in his notes for this shit? Symptoms: Normally endurable attraction to co-worker has become excruciating?
Torchwood AU in which Joe is dosed with alien sex dust. (No familiarity with Torchwood necessary to read this, although it probably helps.)
