    Summary

    "Jyn talked herself into a corner with her grandma," Han explained. "Now she needs a fake boyfriend for Christmas."

    "Why doesn't Cassian do it?" Luke asked, and Jyn scowled at him.

    [In which Jyn, in an attempt to get her mother's overbearing, gossipy, and traditional family off her back for one freaking Christmas, conscripts Cassian to join her as her (fake) boyfriend for the whole week in England. Shamelessly, wildly, gleefully AU.]

    Summary

     "The price of business: regrettable but necessary sacrifices." He paused for a moment to drag the tips of his gauntleted fingers over the skin of her shoulder, admiring the thin red lines the points raised.

    "But you know all about those." He said, leaning in, drawing his nose up the side of her neck. "It's what I admire most about you, you know. That elegant pragmatism."

    Summary

    “Oh, gods. Don’t tell me you have delusions of taming me.”

    “Taming you? No, I have no such aspirations,” Wyll says, his voice a muted, steady tenor. “All I’ve ever wanted was to set you free.”

    Summary

    “Oh, gods forbid they respond positively to you doing a good thing,” Neve deadpans. She squeezes him a little again. “That’s sort of how it works, Astarion.”

    She can’t even see it. Believes the best of them all so earnestly, himself included, that she can’t see how it would all fall away without her at the center. It’s enough to make a person feel like they might actually deserve it.

    “And by it, you mean…?” he asks instead.

    Her huffed laugh of disbelief ruffles the hair at his neck. “Friendship, you idiot,” she answers. “And the general acquisition thereof.”

    Astarion cuts a sideways look at her as best he can with her still nestled so close. “And is that what we are? Friends?”

    He’d meant it to tease her, and yet finds that the silence before her answer twists his stomach. Because…he doesn’t actually know, either.

    “Yes, Astarion,” Neve says gently, after a moment. “I think we’re very good friends.”

    -

    Neve and Astarion, continued. She's not a victim. Not a target. Not just one night it's better to forget. But then...whatever in the world could she be?

    Summary

    Kepler said, with a short, confident laugh, "I don't know if you've forgotten in your brand new virus-founded idiocracy, but Dr. Maxwell and I put together are pretty damn smart. Pretty damn smart. I'm sure we can handle one job without you."
