Summary
Iago gasps for air, his brain and body feeling fried and frozen. “You are bold, Cassio.” He says, without moving away. But is he wrong? Iago had dealt with homosexual attractions, but he had pushed them aside. They were the inventions of a lonely mind at war, surrounded by great men. It is his Christian duty to marry a woman, to love Emilia. He should find thrill with her, and not feel his heart skip beats with the lips of a man pressed to his neck.
“Perhaps I am,” Cassio hums, considering. “Fortune favors the bold, does she not? Dear Iago?”

Summary
She asks the silence. She asks ‘Do I tell him how I miss it? Not just young love, not just the exploration of Orlando. But the exploration of Ganymede? Of Rosalind?’
After a length of time, the number she does not know, she feels it has been long enough. And she knows, somehow, that she must tell him. The silence, the wind, the universe, whatever god is watching now or perhaps her own mind tells her that there can be no secrets. That deceit has no place in their lives anymore. Orlando does not hold her play acting as wrongdoing, but she doesn't need to do it anymore. There's no need to engineer her life and stay safely outside of bounds. She is safe here, with him.

Summary
In short, Thomas Jefferson realizes they have been time-traveled to 2022 and he is an anxious mess.
“Cheer up, Tom. You have seen one room! You may find pleasure yet in the modern age.”
So far the only thing that seems remotely pleasurable is that John is here to act as a companion. Thomas is suddenly reminded of their reality, back in their time. That they have not spoken to each other with such tenderness and kindness since their time in Europe. Politics is a bitter profession. He regrets deeply that he and John could never agree on matters of policy. Even though John gets the most heated during arguments, Thomas feels the most at fault. If he had just relented. Acknowledged that they both had the nation’s success at heart. Perhaps things would not have been so cold between them for so long.
“Thank you,” He says. He sneaks a hand down to grip the one John has pressed against his thigh. “For… calming me like an old friend. Like we have never held bitter feelings for each other.”
“I have always loved you, and always will.” John confirms fiercely. “You know that.”

Summary
Bilbo may be a gentlehobbit, but he knows better than to just lay about doing nothing all day. He works as a prostitute at one of the finest brothels in Hobbiton, when it suits him.
He's certainly glad of his choice of occupation when a handsome dwarrow comes in looking to lose his virginity.
-----
“That’s fine. I know what your friend wanted for you, but, Thorin- what do you want out of this?”
“I want Dwalin and Dís to stop nagging me about finding someone to warm my bed.” Thorin ended the statement with a small huff and Bilbo found himself biting his lip to hold back a smile. That was- it was funny.
“If that’s all you’d like, I can give you a hickey and we can play cards until it’s time to sleep.” It wouldn’t be the first time he’d done something like that, though Bilbo couldn’t deny that he was a little disappointed with the notion of missing out on sleeping with Thorin. The dwarrow was handsome. But this wasn’t about Bilbo, after all.
A flush crept down Thorin’s neck again, and he shook his head. “I- I suppose I’d also like to- to have you. To touch you.”

Summary
Enjolras was envisioning finding his soulmate a la Taken, then telling his soulmate to eat an entire bag of dicks. Also he planned to kick his soulmate in the shin, at least one time, but in all likelihood he knew it would turn into a beatdown.
His soulmate's music was torture. This was the soundtrack of someone being held without trial in Guantanamo.
We do the happy dance for whoever it pleases-
"And everyone is happy when we go to Chuck E Cheeses," Enjolras mouthed silently. Not because he wanted to, but because the song was catchy.
It'd been two weeks with this song. He was praying to a God he didn't believe in for his soulmate to get fired.
____
In a universe where soulmates share a musical bond, Enjolras' soulmate's decision to work at Chuck E Cheese threatens his already fragile mental health.

Summary
Achilles’ lips hide sharp teeth as they trail across the prince’s collarbones. He keeps Zagreus gently resting against the bed, his larger stature covering Zagreus. Zagreus squirms again, gripping the sheets.
“Be gentle, Achilles,” Patroclus says.
At the sound of Pat’s voice, Achilles introduces his teeth. Razor sharp pointed things, a row on each jaw. It could easily tear someone apart, but he stays delicate as he nips at Zagreus’ skin. Little affectionate love bites. Zagreus squirms again, a shiver running up his back as Achilles mouths at the flesh of his chest. One hand comes up, cupping one breast as Achilles laves his tongue over the other.
“Does it feel good?” Patroclus asks.
“Mhm,” Zagreus replies.
-----------
Achilles usually has control of his teeth when in his nereid form, but unfortunately he gets too eager and bites down on his prince. A punishment is deserved and given, then he must make it up to Zagreus.
