Summary
Once upon a time, the ocean had felt cold to Shuri, its depths an oppressive weight on her body in the cramped metal suit. But now, in her Black Panther garb, pressed shoulder-to-shoulder with a man who could quicken her heartbeat just as easily as he could stop it, the water was a comfort. Everywhere she looked, she saw life, from the schools of fish passing by, scales flashing like gemstones to the Talokanil weaving in-between the mossy structures.
This was what Namor had fought to protect, she thought. This was the man that had shouldered the weight of the glowing vibranium sun to bring light to his people. And now, this man, who had yielded to Shuri in the space between land and sea, trusted her to do the same.

Namor, Shuri, and the elements that connect them.

Summary
Namor scoffed. They stood so closely together, he could feel the heat of her breath steal across his face. “I could hardly take my eyes off you the first time we met.”
“Well, the first time I saw you, I was so flustered, I’m pretty sure I was holding my book upside-down.”
“You’re so smart, you could probably read upside-down anyways.”
Shuri broke out in the beginning of a laugh, but the rest of it was swallowed up by Namor’s kiss. Dropping her wrist, he cupped her face with both hands, his touch achingly tender.

CEO Namor likes the local flower shop, but he thinks he likes the girl who works there even more.
(It’s a flower shop AU. ‘Nuff said.)

Summary
Erik did not make a habit of cataloging all of Namor’s expressions. From what he’d seen, the man’s emotive inventory ran from polite stoicism to angry stoicism with little variation in between. The only time he seemed to be feeling otherwise was when he spent time with Shuri. And even then, he was guarded. (Though, Erik thought, his body language was fluent in tongues his mouth was not.)
However, Erik had never seen this expression before.
If Erik had to be nice about it, he would say that Namor was looking at Shuri as though she’d hung the stars in the sky.
But, Erik was not nice, so he thought that Namor looked rather dumb. The man appeared slack-jawed, with a face that suggested he’d recently been electrocuted.
—
As punishment for his past indiscretions—murder, unlawful trespass, giving Shuri terrible life advice—Erik has been reincarnated into a cat. However, he won’t let this injustice stand and chooses to take his anger out on Shuri, who is in the midst of alliance negotiations (and maybe a little more) with Namor.

Summary
“How am I your favourite cousin?”
Erik shrugged. “Have you tried to stab me yet?”
Shuri gave him a look that told him she was still thinking about it.
—
In a Wakanda under the protection of two Black Panthers, Shuri has taken it upon herself to forge an alliance—it’s a partnership, totally not a marriage, of course—with the elusive underwater god-king, K’uk’ulkan. Her family is less than pleased and K’uk’ulkan’s entourage stuck somewhere between dread and excitement.
OR; Shuri and Namor each navigate their families’ reactions to their upcoming union-which-is-totally-not-a-marriage.

Summary
“You cried.” His lips barely part as he murmurs the words. “Your tears were here.”
“You put them there,” replies Shuri. There’s a hollow pang in her chest, like someone is about to carve her heart out with a curved blade, nicking her ribs with every twist of the knife.
Namor does not respond, continuing to map Shuri’s face with nimble fingers. As his fingers pass over her nose, Shuri is breathless, like the slightest exhale might push him away.
He lingers at her mouth, thumb gently pressed to the full curve of her bottom lip. “You smiled here,” he says.
“You’re not the only one to put that there,” replies Shuri cheekily. She enjoys the way Namor’s soft gaze, almost worshipful in its reverence, sharpens into something else. Heat curls in the pit of her stomach as his eyes darken and for a moment, the thumb against her mouth pushes down harder, only to release at her brash quirk of her lips.

Namor asks to paint Shuri. She agrees. Naughty times ensue.

Summary
What would happen if a Song of Ice and Fire was set in modern times and just so happened to be mostly narrated by modern-day Theon? Well, it would probably be a comedy full of hijinks, friendships, hook-ups, and brightly coloured jeans.

Summary
“Who better to stand in my stead, to stand as the Crown,” Viserys raises his hands, like he’s about to shock them all with his wisdom, “Than its trueborn heir.”
Rhaenyra preens at the praise, the recognition. “Thank you, Father.”
“And the Queen.”
The smile drops from her face.
OR
[Post-1x06] The King sends Rhaenyra and Alicent to strengthen ties with the North. Alicent lasts two days with a chill that reaches her bones; and then she finds a solution.

wouldn't it be nice? (in the kind of world where we belonged) by SummerFrost

Summary
Spike is still beneath her, so hard he's vibrating, and a second ago she was living in this amazing, perfect, fresh piece of Dubble Bubble bubblegum world. A second ago, she loved him.
Or: The thing about Willow's will-be-done spell is that, yeah, obviously it sucks that it happened with Spike. But now that all those totally fake lovey-dovey feelings are gone, Buffy is starting to worry that she'll never get them back—with anyone. Too bad the only person who might understand is her mortal enemy.

Summary
Buffy is ashamed of him, Spike knows. But when no one else is around, she touches him like she could love him.
(In which Spike makes a damn good cup of coffee, watches a sunrise or two, and plays confidant to a Slayer who thinks dying to save the world would've been easier than this.)

Summary
“Buffy?”
He almost never used to call her Buffy. Did he? Always Slayer, or pet, or love. Or like, he’d use her name, but it always sounded odd, in his mouth. All tender, touchy. Like, like he was making eye contact with her, just by saying it.
"Spike."
She wonders if it feels the same, for him. His name, her tongue.
