    Summary

    “You like sitting here, boy.”

    The Captain. He is right behind her, she can feel it. She knows his steps, she knows them very well; she has learnt the acoustics of them trapped in the old wood of the ship. How then, she thinks furiously, could she have missed his approach?

    She stiffens. Adrenaline, creature of arrested fight-or-flight, slithers swiftly up the column of her spine and settles on her shoulder.

    Run, it whispers into her ear. Run, now.

    Summary

    On her twelfth day, she’s standing next to a bank of stainless steel wire bird cages and clasping a shrink-wrapped package of pine wood shavings to her chest and legitimately praying for strength when Harry pauses in the doorway for no readily apparent reason other than to scowl disapprovingly in her general direction and that just—

    No.

    That’s fucking it.

    Summary

    Lucy likes it when the Ghoul calls her sweetheart. She knows he doesn’t particularly mean it as an endearment; he called her sweetheart when he strung her up as gulper bait. And when he cut off her finger. And when he sold her for parts. But she likes it all the same. She thinks it’s because of the way it rolls off his tongue all smooth and effortless like a muscle memory.

    Yes, she thinks. He has lost too. It feels good to not be alone about it. It feels good that he’s hurting.

    Summary

    Hotch's lips are pressed together, stern as ever—except you want to believe that it’s not as severe as when you first met months ago. The shape of his mouth might be softer now. A little more indulgent.

    Just a little.

    You still want to kiss him, stern or not.

    Summary

    A single, deft hand captured your wrists, easily pinning them above your head, into the mattress. Your fingers twitched against the soft cotton of your sheets as you tested the hold, but the grip was immovable. Heat dripped and pooled inside of you like warmed honey as a dark, clothed knee slid between your legs to nudge them apart. Briefly, you tried to clamp your thighs closed, but the knee between yours prevented the feeble attempt. You squeezed your eyes shut, hoping to will yourself awake — this couldn’t be real.

    “This is no dream, little one,” a low voice murmured softly, answering your unasked question.

    Your eyes snapped open to meet a striking blue gaze glimmering with endless galaxies and pale skin illuminated by the moonlight that poured in through your window. His finger stroked a line from your wrist down your arm. Your lips parted as a delicious shiver ran along the length of your spine and your flesh rippled in goosebumps.

    “Wh-What are you doing?” you managed to say. “I don’t have much, but you can take whatever you want.”

    “I have no need for mortal possessions.” A deep hum emanated from his chest, a dark rumble of amusement. “I desire you.”

    Summary

    “I wrote you a line,” he says one night, leaning against the side of the tour bus and lifting his cigarette to his lips. Daisy stares down at her own, clipped between her fingers to avoid looking too closely at his mouth.

    She knows Billy noticed how unmoored she’d become, because the shithead notices everything these days from how she takes her coffee to when she forgets to replace the toilet paper roll. She thinks he was waiting, waiting until she wasn’t so adrift to ask her to make something with him again. It’s considerate, but annoys her on principal.

    Still. He wrote her a line. Daisy considers this with a small smile.

    OR: Daisy and Billy start writing about politics and get a little off track.

    Summary

    Sometimes on good days, when his dad wasn’t screaming and shouting at everything that moved, he’d put Bob in the truck and drive out on the 72 and go fishing with him in the evening. Flashlights in the dark, streaking dim across expanses of black water, muggy air, mosquitoes. Little red eyes looking back out of the water. They’d sit and guess how big the gators were from the distance between the eyes. You’d better watch yourself out here, Bobby, his dad would say sometimes, and pretend to start to push him forward over the boardwalk with a big hand splayed on his back. And he’d laugh and laugh, like it was funny.

    Bob had never thought it was funny. But he’d learned early on to laugh along.

    ~~~~~~~

    When Bob tries out a new solution for his wellbeing, he's advised by Barnes to keep to a schedule and avoid any variables. But this means pulling away from the New Avengers (and Yelena) for a while, and even though the results are fantastic, all that pent-up need for connection and affection has to go somewhere when the adjustment period is over.

    Daisy and Billy meet again after twenty years but will they really find their way back to each other?

    "Two decades. It’s all she can think about while staring at the nerve-wracking smile that once held so much power over her and, if she’s being honest, she still can’t quite tell whether she’s trapped in another one of her devious dreams or whether he’s really there."

    Summary

    (Post-Season One.)

    Lucy had the sort of face girls in the movies had: clear skin, big eyes, and neat hair. Pretty — beautiful, actually, but not as a matter of compliment. Beautiful in the way she’d make a good price at any given market if he was inclined to sell her. Beautiful in the way people loved to exploit.

    Summary

    Little Lucy throws him a blank look, the same one he’s been seeing on that pretty face since the showdown with her father. “I want to keep going.”

    There’s that stubborn tenacity buried under her too-soft flesh. He argues back, “I’m tired. Ain’t you tired?”

    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."
