Summary
Lando was like sugar, far too sweet for his own good. He smiled so much—and oh, Oscar loved it, loved the way the gleam in Lando's eyes lit up his whole face, how it transformed him from beautiful to devastating.
Oscar wanted to possess Lando more than anything else.

Summary
It was familiar, as if it contained the past and the future in a synonymous symphony. A harmony of sureness and things undefined. Of cornflowers and poppies both bleeding in the wake. The flame consumed, but it seemed to bloom as well. Relentless but not unforgiving, a wilting core but something forever living.
Or
Lukey finds himself returning time and time again to a painting he'd seen in memory lane, he tries to make sense of it.

Summary
Prompt: Hollowed Out
“Shouta had been hollow inside for a long time now. He had tried to fill the emptiness inside him with working himself to exhaustion as a hero, and with sacrificing again and again as a teacher, and with stepping up as a father, and with letting Hizashi do whatever he wanted to him, because he knew he deserved it, and because he wanted to make Hizashi happy.”

Summary
Cal leans forward, both arms wrapped around his middle, and rests his forehead on his knees with a groan. Worn down by fatigue and burnt out by pain, his shields are threadbare at best and do nothing to contain his sincere worry for Mari and the prisoners. Without even meaning to, his compassion is conveyed even more strongly than his sense of self-recrimination, and it softens Cere, tempering the uncharitable assumptions she’d made in response to his bullish quarreling.
He would have been the best of them, Cere realizes, heart breaking quietly. And in that moment, she knows she will never be able to protect him the way he deserves to be, but she will be damned if she doesn’t at least try.
Cal is worth more than he knows.

Summary
Eighteen months before the team ever suspected, Aaron Hotchner was quietly breaking under the weight of a mission gone wrong — and only Dr. Spencer Reid saw the cracks.
As Reid steps up in ways no one else notices, a fragile bond begins to form, built on quiet protection, unspoken understanding, and the slow, steady weaving of something deeper. In a world where the team is family and secrets are survival, they navigate the shadows together, learning to trust without words and protect without boundaries.
This is the story of how two colleagues became so much more — without rushing, without pressure, just real healing and real connection.

Love is Supposed to be Strong. by Anonymous
Fandoms: Animator vs. Animation (Short Films - Becker)

Summary
Love, by definition, is an intense feeling of deep affection. Except it never was that simple for Purple.
For them, love has always been a shifting thing, warm one moment, unreachable the next. It’s music and pain, laughter and loss, bruises and lullabies. It’s all the ways someone can try to understand what it means to be loved… and still not quite get it right.
This story follows Purple’s journey through different kinds of love told through shifting pronouns, shifting worlds, and shifting selves. From a child who once watched a concert with wonder, to a fighter chasing their father’s approval, to a king who traded companionship for control, to a wanderer learning what love actually feels like, this is Purple, trying. Always trying.
And yeah, this was supposed to be a King Purple fic at first. But then I blinked and accidentally wrote a character study instead, sprinkled with self-indulgence and headcanons because apparently I was starved for Purple content and decided to fix that myself. Anyways this whole fic is based on a Purple Analysis on Youtube.

Summary
Two people spent years watching each other from behind carefully constructed walls—and what happens when those walls finally come down.
Noah Wellin learned to disappear, comply, perform.
Atlas Sterlins learned to command, control, never want out loud.
They grew up in the same world—country estates, boarding school halls, and family galas where everyone smiled and no one was honest.
They saw each other across rooms for years. Never spoke. Never touched.Until they did.
This isn’t a love story. It’s an obsession story—about recognition so sharp it hurts, about hunger disguised as control, about devotion that borders on destruction.
Between Masks is real-time fiction.
Every chapter unfolds in the present tense of emotion—sometimes a day, sometimes an hour, sometimes just the space between two breaths.Content warnings: Possessive behavior, emotional intensity, first-time sexual experiences, complex family dynamics, internalized homophobia, coming out.
For anyone who’s ever worn a mask too long, wanted someone too much, or loved someone because they saw you clearly.
Two people. Years of distance. One moment that changes everything.
Welcome to Between Masks. -

"..."
"Well, i won't grace it with a description. But damn this is your 900th try so good luck. Kyoko and Nagisa are waiting for you three, you know?"
"S-Sachi-san please we can try and talk this out-". Before Madoka can finish what she's saying, Sachi Akemi looked her with her white pupils missing.
"Talk this out?" Sachi scoffed "You lost that chance after what you did to Homura" -

Summary
The world can be a harsh and brutal place, where even just trying to exist can be overwhelming. In a near future, Han Jisung has found the perfect escape in a fully immersive VR game where he is able to thrive in the environment rather than struggle to tolerate it. A world where he can feel like someone who can be loved, and indulge in a virtual romance without the pressure and fear caused with real ones. Somewhere he can feel just like a normal person. He will soon find, though, that even something that feels perfect can never fully be an escape from reality, and who he is. He is in a losing fight in maintaining the balance between keeping the reality he is so desperate to run away from, and the virtual world where he can fake being more real than in reality separated.
Or; A story about struggling to exist in (and out of) the world with autism, trauma, and a complicated relationship with sexuality. About escapism, acceptance, healing, and the ordeal of falling in love.

Jung Wooyoung is someone's weapon—the beautiful wound Choi San can't resist trying to fix.

Protection becomes possession, care curdles into claiming, and somewhere between the river of corpses below and the cold air above, two people who should never have touched start forgetting which performance should've been temporary and which hunger would always consume them both.
The mission: seduce the heir.
Dismantle the kingdom from the inside.Or:
In an alternate universe, Wooyoung learned to lie so well he forgot how to tell the truth.Spy AU Woosan & OT8 ✦ Soft ruin ✦ Psychological thriller

Summary
2169. Humanity reached the stars, and met its limits.
Once a classified subject at Gagarin Station, Lieutenant Kaidan Alenko carries the quiet legacy of the BAaT program: a body engineered for power, a mind trained for restraint, and a past that still bleeds through the cracks.
When he’s reassigned to the SSV Normandy, he expects duty and protocol — not Commander Shepard, a woman as driven as she is volatile. The galaxy is changing, the Alliance is watching, and control has never been harder to keep.
It takes measured people to survive a war. Shepard is anything but measured.
A canon-compliant retelling of Mass Effect 1 through Kaidan Alenko’s eyes. From the shadows of Gagarin Station to the fire of the Citadel.
