Summary
“I just had to give Jamie the day off because Jamie, the fucking lynch pin in our entire fucking strategy, has not slept since before the Arsenal match.”
“Why hasn’t he slept?”
“Because all these twats won’t leave him the fuck alone.”
“That’s a bit harsh, isn’t it?”
“No.” Roy waved his phone around. “He’s bombarded with texts every day. He’s not sending out texts at fucking midnight because he needs ice cream and cuddle time.”
“That’s happening?”
“Constantly.”
(Or, Jamie just really wants to be there for his teammates, and Roy really wants to strangle anybody who doesn't put Jamie's wellbeing first)Bookmarked by desert_windmill

Summary
Jamie stops for coffee and successfully kisses every person there, which doesn't happen often. He's not one of those nerds who track their numbers, but usually in a public space there are a few who aren't up for it. Today the place is packed with customers, and he lands every single one plus the baristas. Legend.
It's a sign, he decides. Today is the day he finds his bond.

Hospital Ball (Jamie Tartt's Adventures in Matchmaking) by dannyPURO
Fandoms: Ted Lasso (TV)

Summary
Jamie's the best matchmaker ever--Roy and Keeley are gonna be back together before they even realize what's hit them. He's also, maybe, possibly fucking Roy on the side, but that's just until Roy gets back with Keeley and everything goes back to normal. Yente shit, like. (Note: This is not what anybody else thinks is going on, like, at all.)
In which Roy tries to be a good boyfriend to someone who doesn't know he has a boyfriend, Keeley and Jamie can't figure out who's stealing Roy from whom, and Jamie ponders the ethics of plagiarizing a blowjob for the greater good and learns to cook in the meantime. A comedy of errors.

Summary
“Can’t believe a pretty thing like you has to come begging to the Red Hood,” he says against Tim’s neck. “Thought they’d be lining up down the block for you. Thought Daddy would need to get the shotgun.”
“You’re the one with the shotgun,” Tim points out.
++
Tim’s benched with a broken arm and starts playing Jason’s personal Oracle. Things escalate.

Summary
His attention gets caught, immediately, on the arms supporting his weight. His arms, presumably, except no. Absolutely not. Pale, freckled skin; broad, callused hands; strong, tattooed arms; a thin, silvery scar on the right ring finger from catching a knife wrong when they’d been fourteen.

Summary
Keith forgets, sometimes. He’ll wind himself so tightly holding on to negatives, packing every bitter little thought behind gritted teeth, because he forgets, even now, that he doesn’t have to anymore. He doesn’t need to keep it all in until he can’t help but lash out.
(Keith has a bad day. Shiro takes care of him.)

Summary
When Jim slides in at the last second, the doors slipping shut behind him, Spock still waits for a moment. It’s only once he’s sure they’re moving that he says, “I believe you were the one who suggested we conceal our true relationship with one another from the rest of the crew.”
“We are,” Jim says, so obviously delighted. He’s grinning away, not a care in the world. Just the look of him makes Spock’s insides feel— lighter. “It’s not my fault you get all embarrassed every time I look at you.” Jim leans in closer, elbow bracing him against the silver wall. “Do you have a crush on me, Mr. Spock?”
“I will crush you if you like.”

Summary
Nile watches as Joe gets to his feet and heads towards Nicky, calling out something to him in Italian. Nile is torn between learning Italian, so that she can know what they’re saying, and feeling like it’s an intrusion on something that she’s not meant to hear. "He's very protective of Nicky, isn't he?"
"You're only noticing that now?" Andy asks wryly.
“It all seems a little bit one-sided, that’s all,” Nile muses. “I've never seen Nicky be as...violently protective over Joe.” Andy just hums, and Nile glances over at her. “You think I’m wrong? I know I haven’t been around long, but I’ve seen Joe get killed in a bunch of messy ways and Nicky has never done…that.”
Andy just hums again. “Look again,” she says when Nile throws her hands up in frustration. “Watch more closely. You’ll know when you see it.”

Summary
"How do you know me?”
Yusuf’s not smiling anymore. He’s serious, more stoic than Nicolo’s ever seen him. Then again they’ve never been anything to one another but faces in the fog of their minds and twirls of steel in the mud. There’s no time for impassivity when you're fighting like that.
“I have known you all my life. Only now, you speak back to me.” It’s rough the way he says it, grating in the throat. Nicolo finds himself suddenly chilly, despite the fire and fragrant drops of sizzling hare fat.
“Only in my language,” Nicolo says, trying to lighten the air. “That’s not really fair.”
Yusuf shrugs. “I was a merchant. I traveled to many places. Genova was one of them. Besides—” His eyes sparkle across the fire. “I have plenty of time to teach you.”
(Or five times Nicky hears Joe speak his language and one time Nicky returns the favor.)
