Summary
“D’ya want one?” Buck mumbles, mouth full of fruit. “They’re good.”
Eddie’s been staring at Buck since he first sauntered into the living room and collapsed on the couch, but it’s gotten more intense since Buck first sunk his teeth into the fruit. The juice is dribbling down his hand and wrist; he’s licking it up, casual, kind of disgusting if Eddie’s being frank, and Eddie wants to die a little bit. Or sit on Buck’s face. It’s a toss-up, at this point.
“No,” Eddie says, and as Buck slurps through another bite, he adds, just a touch petulant, “I don’t like peaches.”Or,
Eddie loves Buck, but Buck's withholding something from him; and Buck loves Eddie, and he's just waiting for Eddie to tell him what he wants.Series

Summary
(keep my hand in yours)
Buck tastes like the beer they drank after they got in, the dumplings they picked up from that good Japanese place just on the corner from the firehouse, like soy sauce and the garlicky sriracha he likes to put on literally everything. It’s the best thing Eddie’s ever tasted. He’s pretty sure he’ll never want to detach his mouth from Buck’s ever again.
Buck does do that, however. Pulls away just a hairbreadth, breathes in sharply through his mouth. A grumpy little whine cuts through the silence of the kitchen like thunder.
“Oh,” Buck whispers, sixty different shades of smug, and Eddie’s face gets all boiling when he realizes the sound came from him. “Huh.”Or,
Buck gives Eddie his world back, and Eddie is in love with him. They go from 0 to a 100 real quick.Series

Summary
The bath takes care of the sweat. Takes care of the burnt bits of skin and fat that still cling to his palm. Zuko scrubs his body until it’s raw, blushing red; he dunks his head under the hot water and stays there, staring up at the dark, vaulted ceiling of the washroom until his lungs run out of breath to use.
The oil of honeysuckle and opium and cinnamon, sweet and sharp and earthy, does not wash the stench of scorched flesh out of his nose.Zuko falls asleep on the evening of his official coronation, when he’s twenty-one-years old and has finally reached his majority. Zuko wakes on the morning of the Agni Kai with his father, eight years earlier.
This is annoying for several reasons, like the fact that the War is still ongoing, that he has zero friends, and that Ozai is not in jail.
It’s time to scheme.Series

Summary
His voice is rough and loud and would be attractive to any girl but her. The song he chose speaks of a girl who’s shy and needs the writer to rescue her. Based on the slight slur on every second syllable Katara is certain he’s indulged in some alcohol for an additional boost of courage, and she wishes he hadn’t because maybe then he would’ve thought twice about serenading her, doing something she explicitly asked him not to, beneath her window in the middle of fucking winter.
She breaks up with him a week later, encouraged by Suki’s and Toph’s hysterical snorts of laughter at her retelling of the awful, horrible, no-good experience. When he, frustrated and embarrassed, asks her why, she tells him she just got bored of him.
It’s as close to the truth as Katara, kind and giving to her very bones, is willing to tell him. And if it makes Zuko quirk his eyebrow at her, well, all the better.
She bets Zuko wouldn’t do it to her.Or,
3 times Katara got serenaded, and 1 time she didn’t. -

Summary
Zuko smiles at her again. It’s a bright, shiny, wonderful thing that makes his eyes twinkle. A child of Agni, as his people would say; one who shall light the way by the sheer force of his grin alone.
Ridiculous. Absurd. Beautiful. Katara has to squash the brief, incessant urge to freeze the rice and dab the starchy ice against her searing face.
“Okay,” he replies, and he just keeps looking at her, chopsticks hanging limp from his fingers. “We’re a team, Katara. It’s as simple as that.”Katara likes Zuko.
Like, really, really likes Zuko. -

Summary
The sun peeks through the gaps in the weaving of the half-closed curtains, illuminating Damian from behind: enough to darken his features, but not enough to obscure them, and it highlights the cowlick springing from Damian’s head as the wax he probably spread through his hair this morning loses its hold. His delicate face is scrunched up in concentration, sharp, dark eyebrows furrowed and mouth pouted; his posture is hunched, shoulders slightly pulled up, almost as if he wishes to hide his newest project from the world.
Bruce takes the tiny notebook out of the inner pocket of his jacket before he realizes what he’s doing. He flips over to an empty page, clicks the pen twice, and starts sketching.Or,
Bruce secretly draws Damian drawing, and Damian finds something that connects him to his father some more. -

Summary
...you let your knickers down.
Rhysand had never truly touched her, though it was obvious he wished to. No matter how much his fingers twitched, no matter how much she silently encouraged him, he’d only ever trapped her against walls by caging her in; at most, his lips would ghost over her pulse point, hitching breath tickling her skin. Feyre was certain that, if she only thought the word, he’d listen.
She wished he wouldn’t.Feyre Archeron does not offer joy freely, and someone wants it all to himself.

Summary
So, yes. Bruce Wayne is an Adult. An ungoverned, uncontrolled, semi-respectable Adult who does Adult things and who experiences Adult things.
Bruce Wayne is also grounded.
Which, truthfully, is not very Adult of him. He’ll admit that.Or, Bruce overworks himself and, after a forced rest, ends up scrubbing a bathroom on Alfred’s orders as punishment.
This would’ve been survivable, had his children not been menaces. -
