Midnight Strangers by Mitos (SeriouslyCalamitous)

Summary
The man hovering over him leaned back, releasing Grian completely. Cold night air rushed in to fill the void.
“I guess it’s out in the open now,” the stranger hummed. “Shame. I wanted to avoid this.”
With the additional glow occupying the space between them, Grian was finally able to catch features that were lost in the prior darkness. His curiosity outweighed all else, and he drank them in greedily. As soon as he saw who sat across from him, alarms blared in his mind.
This man wasn’t a civilian, wasn’t even a hero.
“Hello, Doctor,” the villain mused. “You were quite the help today.”
- or -
Grian is a vet. After a chance encounter in the dead of night, during which he accidentally saves a villain from the brink of death, he suddenly finds himself entangled in a world beyond anything he could've ever imagined.

Summary
Shen Qingqiu had a secret. So, naturally, it was only a matter of time before he was hit by a truth serum wife plot.
//
“How are you?”
“Horny. Kind of want Binghe to rail me, I guess. But it’s manageable.”
Liu Qingge’s hand on his forehead froze, and he was close enough that Shen Qingqiu could hear his breathing stop. He stared back expressionlessly, the mortification distantly crawling up the back of his neck. Honest One-Horned–
The frustrated scream that he usually vented in his head, came out straight from mouth.
“aaAAAAAHHHH GODDAMNIT AIRPLANE–”

Summary
Bruce doesn't want to be here. He had never liked to be seen, to be the center of attention.
He could handle it like Batman - fear was another weapon to use - but when he was just Bruce Wayne, no costume and no mask, he felt exposed, weak.The looks on him were greedy, they all wanted something.
"Remember to smile," Alfred had told him before the gala, trying to prepare him for the necessary social interaction.
A polite smile made people believe you were available, but not enough to yield to any request. He could do it, smile like an idiot. It would help put a distance between him and his alter ego, making it impossible in people's minds to compare the two.
--------
Or, Bruce hates being around too many people, and a cute reporter keeps him company.

Summary
Gordon is the closest one to the Batman. Gotham has assumed he knows who’s under the mask. Truth is, he really doesn’t, and he’s not sure anyone believes him.
But then there are these clues. Small, unnoticeable things sprinkled between the frequent meetings with the Batman and the occasional spotting of Bruce Wayne. And maybe the cogs are starting to turn for Gordon. Maybe he’s starting to connect the dots between Gotham’s infamous vigilante and very own prince.
Or maybe he’s making it all up in his head.

Summary
“You just had a panic attack,” Juno had said afterwards, and the realization that there was a name for the sensation he was feeling had hit Nureyev like a sack of bricks. “Hey, listen, if you ever feel like that, and I’m not with you, you come get me, okay? You don’t have to go through any of that alone.” Nureyev had kissed him, and promised that he would find Juno if it happened again.
Once a liar, always a liar, he supposed.

Summary
For his first thirteen years, Zuko was raised in a palace. And yet somehow, it's the three years outside the Fire Nation that seem to count more – at least to the palace staff, who act like he's been raised by fox-wolves.
At first, this only annoys Zuko.
Until he begins to think that the Fire Nation needs more than a formerly-banished prince.

Summary
They gravitated towards Zuko whenever the temperature dipped even slightly. At night, he often woke to someone pulling their bedroll towards him, or slipping under his arm, or turning over in their sleep and colliding with his shoulder.
It alarmed him, at first. It had never been a good thing when someone woke him in the dead of the night.
It was strange, then, that he was on the run without Uncle, officially a traitor to his homeland, and for the first time since his mother left, he woke in the night sandwiched between bodies, feeling safe.
(Zuko becomes the group's heat-pack.)

Summary
Martin had never been the type of person to listen to popular music. It made him feel ridiculously pretentious to say it, but it all felt so superficial. All those songs about love and sex and breakups felt so… detached. Emotionless even as the singer was supposedly pouring their heart out.
He supposed this was part of the reason he liked poetry. Good poetry, where the feelings are so strong you can almost taste them, where you can hear the sounds pinned down by ink on the paper. Martin had been trying his hand at writing his own stuff recently, but it was never much good. It always felt so cliche.
This is probably just a long way of saying that he liked a good story, and definitely a roundabout way of explaining why he enjoyed listening to the Mechanisms so much.
(or to put it another way, Jarchivist Sims is Jonny D'Ville and Martin doesn't realise. Gay shenanigans occur. Now with Angst™)
