Summary
he grins a little, rueful.
“you’d do it, wouldn’t you? sink that dagger in my heart, if it came down to it.”
you bite your lip hard enough to draw blood. his stare weighs on the small droplet, one curled finger tilting up your chin.
“would you want me to do it?”
his thumb pressed down on your lower lip. your heart skips a beat.
“it has to be you,” he mutters.
or: vampires are rising from the depths of gotham city. you don't expect their king to desire you.

Summary
“let’s both keep quiet, yeah?”
he’s warm, you think. impeccably warm, in a way that has you inching closer ever so slightly, fingers flexing in your lap, itching to touch, to cradle. to tease. he’s close. close enough that you can make out the lashes fanning his cheek, the way his tongue darts over his lips. his eyes, harder than steel, melting away, moon-soft. dark.
“how quiet?” you whisper, heart stuttering rabbit-fast in your chest.
his hands tighten around your waist, thumb brushing your hip bone. a low hum. you feel it rumbling in his chest, where your hand has found support over his beating heart. it hammers against your palm, the thrill of the hunt.
“quiet enough to let me fuck you,” he breathes.
or: you and trevor find yourselves in an inn months after he saved you. you come to a mutually beneficial agreement.

Summary
“boxers? as boyfriend material?”
you shrug, your movements stifled from your position between his legs, your cheek pressing up against his thigh. you shift a little, the pleats of the oversized tee you’ve stolen from him somehow having gotten stuck under his leg.
“what? you can’t tell me these-” a gesture towards his boxers, the ones you’re currently wearing “- aren’t the type of stuff a hypothetical girlfriend would steal.”
or: you fall in love with mark, pulled in his orbit like the earth to his sun, a modern icarus. you don't stop to wonder if he'll burn you.

Summary
Mark stumbles in looking wrecked—bruised, bloody, barely holding himself up—but guess what? He still has a takeout bag. The paper’s stained red, but he just grins like an idiot and goes: "Still hot." Priorities.

Summary
in another universe, mark grayson is kind, softened by the tender touch of his mother. they call him invincible and his name means hope. there’s something like a boyish lilt to his grin.
the mark grayson you know pulled you out of the rubble he buried you in, bloodied hand tight around your neck, and left you choking on his ultimatum. follow him or die. and you were tired of cecil’s no-nonsense, find-a-way-to-beat-these-fuckers stare. tired of playing hero for a bunch of ungrateful scumbags, of ceaselessly bloodying your hands. crime is the many-headed hydra. it will never die. you will.
you took mark’s hand and buried yourself in his arms. earth burned.

Summary
The year is 3057.
In a time when the rich and powerful can buy their replacement body in an effort to live forever, Itadori Yuuji is born for one purpose and one purpose only; to be the next body to hold the mind of an affluent citizen. His own mind, left to fade away into obscurity, as if it never were.
He’s not aware of this fact.
It’s not like anyone tells him that he’s being raised like a pig for slaughter and he doesn’t see the butcher’s block in plain view until it’s too late.
-Or: the epic sci-fi dystopian drama where Yuuji falls in love with a man who doesn't have his best interests in mind.

Summary
You don’t have a crush on him. It’s not like you’re still interested, like that, in even just the general category of person that crush had represented. And the person sitting in the lobby isn’t the person– the fiction– you’d even felt that type of way about, anyways. You don’t know him, and he’s obviously nothing like the guy memorialized in every Captain America docudrama miniseries on Netflix.
No, James Buchanan Barnes is a real human being, a very different human being, one that’s a stranger to you and you think probably just as much of a stranger to that other, safer, softer, more boyish version of himself.The person you see— because you do, you see him, he can’t stay away— is a controlled facade, with all of his wants pushed deep under the surface. The empty husk of a pomegranate, white and clean, all that red stripped out, each little piece a desire he knows he shouldn’t have.
But you want it. The husk and the fruit, the insides, glittering like rubies. Like drops of blood.Bookmarked by layl0w

Summary
He forgets that he isn’t allowed this— that there are a thousand and one reasons why his life needs to be preplanned and predictable. He’s rich, for one, famous for another, with an image to uphold and a role to play, and he doesn’t have time to fuck around and run from his problems.
Even that thought isn’t enough to stop him.

Summary
"And so you talked. About anything and everything. What he had for breakfast, the newest music, the weather, the hidden intricacies of capitol life. All the while, tiptoeing around the reality of the situation: that he was the Finnick Odair, perhaps the most sought after man in all of Panem. That he came here to cry on a balcony - clearly, running away from something."
You meet Finnick at a gala. He's not what you expect.
