    Summary

    Steve has always believed that a soulbond is a blessing -- a rare and beautiful miracle, joining the thoughts and feelings of two people forever, from the first time they touch. Steve knows he's not going to be one of the lucky ones. He knows Gail isn't his soulmate. But he loves her, even if they're not soulmates, and he's going to do right by her. After the war's over, he's going to marry her, and they're going to settle down. They'll buy a house. They'll have children. He'll see his family again. Maybe Bucky will live next door. It's going to be a good life. He doesn't need a soulbond. He'll be fine without one.

    Then Steve wakes up sixty years in the future to find that his wonderful life has moved on without him. His family is long dead. His fiancée married his best friend. And the only purpose he has left is leading the Ultimates, a misbegotten team of superheroes with flaws too numerous to count. Steve hates everything about the future -- but most of all he detests Tony, flashy and flirtatious, who embodies everything Steve hates about a world he never wanted to live in.

    And, oh, yeah, Steve has a soulmate after all: Tony fucking Stark.

    Summary

    “Liam,” Zayn says softly into the receiver, the tears that had fallen the moment he heard Liam’s voice, choking him. It is supposed to be a comforting sound, it always has been, but now it feels like knifes sinking into his chest. “I’ve must of called a thousand times by now, and I know you’re ignoring me but Liam, please call me back. I don’t understand why you left me.”

     

     

     

     

     

     

    [Or, the one where Zayn and Liam breakup and the world is determined to bring them back together again.]

    Summary

    Harry and Louis are the next big bang – a semi-famous photographer and recovering drug addict turned aspiring model taking the world by storm, one portrait at a time. Liam plays professional hockey for the Vancouver Canucks, Zayn is a #1 R&B artist (in Canada) and Niall? Niall works at a coffee shop called "Bean There" and no, he has not "Done That".

    Niall's just trying to make sense of his own life.

     

    At first, I wanted to say this was a story about struggling with depression and sexual identity, but in the end, I found it was less of a struggle and more of a daily grind.

    So this is a story about living with depression and coming to terms with sexual identity.

     

    OR

    The story where Niall is asexual and depressed, and learns that these two things aren't necessarily related, and that the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow is actually just a pot of happiness.

    Summary

    The summer is an engram of particular moments now, hazy episodes that play behind Harry’s eyes as he drifts off to sleep with an arm holding him close. All of those days of summer will blur together soon, but Harry will always remember them in his senses. They’ll be coconut-scented sunscreen and burnt cinnamon toast, grass stains on knees and flour-streaked hair, blue raspberry tongues and citrus sticky fingers, sunshine freckles and soft hands, warm tan skin and seaglass eyes. Harry will always remember those days of summer as the time he fell in love with Louis Tomlinson.

    But he doesn’t know that yet.

    AU. Harry is Louis' soulmate but Louis isn't Harry's - it takes Harry a while to figure it all out.
