Summary
"Hear me out," Buck said. "Clearly, both of us are sick of dating other people. And we're a good fit, in pretty much every way that matters. So what if we're not in love? We don't need to be in love to be happy together."
Eddie frowned. "So basically, we'd be boyfriends, without benefits?"
"Yes!" Buck snapped his fingers. "Like platonic boyfriends! We'd get all the benefits of a relationship and none of the heartbreak."
And maybe Eddie had finally lost his mind, or maybe it was from all the alcohol clouding his judgment, but the idea of it didn't sound half as crazy as it should have.
***
After Buck’s and Eddie’s dates both end with disasters – proving once again that maybe dating just wasn’t meant for them – they decide to simply settle for each other. If there was one person in the world they'd ever trust with their hearts, it was each other. And who was a better person to date other than your very own best friend?Series

Summary
Jeon Jeongguk doesn’t know what to do when he finds out that some pretty girl in his major has a crush on him, especially when she’s not afraid to hide it. Jeongguk gets help navigating dating her from Park Jimin, the boy he's known since childhood as the annoyingly popular neighbor who Jeongguk just can’t seem to get away from. But when Jeongguk realizes maybe he doesn't like girls, he can't stop thinking about how Jimin doesn't like girls. But Jeongguk doesn't like Jimin. Nope. No. Not at all. That's out of the question ... right?

“Why should we wait until after the wedding?” Xie Lian asked curiously. His face was bright red and his eyes were focused somewhere off over Hua Cheng’s shoulder, yet he had the audacity to still sound genuinely puzzled.

Summary
“You…” Seungmin whispers. “You don’t like that he smells like somebody else?”
Hyunjin startles at the question. His eyes previously hypnotized over where Seungmin was breathing Jeongin in, suddenly look a bit higher, probably to meet his gaze.
“He doesn’t smell,” he contradicts him. “He’s fucking scented, it stinks.”
Jeongin is so overwhelmed, Hyunjin’s scent radiating off him violently, Seungmin’s honey sticking to his throat like he downed a whole bottle of it, and he’s slicking, he’s getting light headed, he’s—
“Just scent me,” he proposes. He still feels the ghost touch of Hyunjin on his neck and in some twisted way he wants for it to happen again. It’s stronger than his heat creeping up his back, probably ready to hit late at night by how quickly he’s starting to burn up. It’s even more visceral than that. “Take it off me, if you hate it so much.”
‘I want to feel the softness of roses and honey on my skin,’ he doesn’t say but thinks.
Baked goods, honey, coffee and flowers are a good mix. Right?

Summary
Starscream witnessed a murder and now someone wants him silenced. His only option? Two mercenaries who've been partners for years and pining for each other just as long. Megatron and Dreadwing have perfected the art of pretending their feelings don't exist.
Then deca-cycles of close quarters happen and suddenly Starscream's in the middle of something he didn't expect: Megatron confessing to Dreadwing, Dreadwing rejecting him out of shame and fear and Starscream somehow becoming the catalyst that forces them to face what they've been hiding.
What starts as Megatron and Starscream grows complicated when Dreadwing's secrets begin unraveling and suddenly no one knows how to navigate falling into a relationship with three mechs instead of two. -

Summary
“Finish it,” Armand says abruptly, reaching out to touch the bottom of the glass. He tilts it up to Daniel’s lips, the words an imperious command.
Daniel barely opens his mouth in time. He chokes on what’s left of the watery crème de menthe and crème de cacao, but Armand doesn’t lower the glass until he’s finished every last drop. His head swims, partly because he’s tipsy and partly because of the brain freeze.
Armand withdraws the empty glass, sets it aside, and grabs a napkin off the bar. He dabs Daniel’s lips with it, brushing the bare pad of his thumb across Daniel’s chin. His skin is warm and smooth, slightly clammy with condensation borrowed from the glass.
Oh my God, Daniel thinks. Don’t lick him don’t lick him don’t lick—
Clearing his throat, Armand sets the napkin aside. “You’re a journalist?”
“Yeah,” Daniel replies hastily, looking away. “You were listening in?”
“I caught part of your chat with Louis. You were going to interview him?”
“Was being the operative word. I’m not sure that would’ve worked out.”

Summary
A series of oneshot stories exploring reconciliation in the wake of the events of Captain America: Civil War, mostly centered around Tony and the Barton family, but featuring all of the Avengers at some point or another.
A fix-it without changing the events of CACW.
Even though I really want to.

Summary
Clearly, friends are all Naruto wants to be – even in spite of the way he kisses his way up Sasuke's body, touching him like lovers do.
It feels like something akin to worship. It feels an awful lot like love.
But it can't be.
Because how could it be love when Naruto has always refused to acknowledge it? He'd chase Sasuke to the ends of the earth and back forever, but he wouldn't call that love. It's always just "because you're my friend". And Sasuke is sick of it.
— or four times that Naruto and Sasuke have sex while they're not on the same page, and one time while they are.

Summary
After the Second Coming fails to bring about the end of the world, Aziraphale and Crowley are abruptly dumped back on Earth with no miracles, no instructions, and far too much unresolved tension. Also, apparently, a lifespan.
What follows is twenty-four hours of disastrous flirting, horny panic, bad decision-making, and the increasingly undeniable realization that they’re finally allowed to have each other. If they could just figure out how to talk like actual adults — and perhaps come up with a plan before everything becomes catastrophically emotional — this would probably be easy.

Summary
"Is it different?" Euijoo asks. "Kissing guys, I mean."
Baby bisexual Euijoo doesn't have a ton of dating experience in the first place, but what experience he does have has all been with women. He has absolutely no idea how to romance a man. He doesn't even really know where to start. And so he goes to Nicholas: the most self-assured bisexual he knows (and perhaps, in the world).
