Beauty and the Beast

Tokens of Life (give me) 9k WIP by @ihaveastorminme

Jon thought of his mother's family often. But he never heard a whisper from them. Not once. Until the day the northern wind howled through the ancestral halls of the dragon Queens, bringing with it snow and wolves’ cries at its tail. Five hundred different deities in that hall, and nobody whispered when she walked in, tall and forbidding, the skirts of her dress swirling about her like mist and snow glittering unmelted in her flame hair. She looked at him... and everything changed.

East of the Sun and West of the Moon

you are my sun, my moon (and all of my stars) 133k

When the white wolf came, the Lord of Winterfell had no choice but to give him his eldest daughter. Eddard Stark had grown up on legends of wolves, on the stories of bargains made by the First Men, on the knowledge of the price that he and his family might one day be forced to pay. His father had explained the reason their house had taken a wolf as its heraldry and “Winter is Coming” as its motto, a reminder of a promise to honor, a recognition of a debt owed that would need, one day, to be paid. Ned had breathed a sigh of relief when his sister’s twentieth winter arrived and the beast had not. And he had watched the dawn sky for the first signs of the snow that would mark that his daughter, too, might also be spared, might escape the fate that had been handed down by their ancestors. But no man could be so lucky. Sansa, too, had been born with the North in her blood, had been raised on the stories of white wolves, had lived her life with the knowledge that one might come for her.

“I fell,” Sansa says softly. “I flew.” [When a strange, hooded man appears out of nowhere, demanding a woman in return for keeping the Others and dead out of Westeros, Sansa goes with him. It’s the best and worst decision of her life.]

Moulage pt.3 ⚜️ Masterlist ⚜️ Chapter 1: Il Était Une Fois

Winter.

A period of quiet reflections and new beginnings of a new year as an old year ends.

The season is associated and centered with darker topics than the rest of the others. The cold and dark are the main symbols of the winter with despair seen as the last symbol. Usually, it can also be viewed as survival and the end of life as many living beings die or prepare to survive the harsh season to live to see gentle spring.

However, many may see it as a warning of their loneliness arriving soon. Not having anyone to enjoy the events that occur in the winter and having to be alone. Which might make them feel the longline with the view of seeing those around them be happy.

The winters in New York were known for their soft powdery snow that if it was picked up, would fall like pixie dust from your hands. The city’s snow had the purest white color out of all the states as it hails from their sky. From their sky, formed fluffy white clouds that were now a light gray, glooming over the state in exchange to produce their pure snow. And with that, it’s how the people of the city begin to change their daily routine from summer to winter.

Once the first snowfall lays on the ground, that's when the people of New York exchange their thin clothing for thicker clothes and the holiday festivities start. Every inch and corner of the city was to be covered by snowfall, as December started. Leaving their crystal water lakes and ponds to become frozen and turned into ice rinks for the people to enjoy. Snowmen with tophats and carrot noses start to appear on the sidewalk and parks, greeting those who walk by. Hot chocolate stands start to pop up around neighborhoods making the children beg their parents to buy them a cup.

However, the most popular and well-known holiday activity to do once early December hits is to watch the Nutcracker. It had become one of the favored Christmas time activities once it became introduced in the 1940s. The city was known for its performing arts and theater centers, so of course, the nutcracker was a new performing arts event that had now been added to the city's list. Almost every family tries to see it every year allowing ballet companies to extend show dates. Even travelers from different states come to New York to see it as there was a high chance no company there will host it.

Coming down from the upper north was a trio, a group of nomad vampires that contained two males and one girl. With one of the males being the mate of the girl. The three of them traveled not far to enter the city, wearing light winter clothing on their bodies compared to the New Yorkers. They got glances from the people as they walked by due to that, but the cold does not bother them as being a vampire and dead contributes to that factor.

The group of vampires was in the city for one reason only, which was to watch The Nutcracker, and then they could go back home. The only woman in the group, Charlotte, had convinced the two to watch the ballet as a way to celebrate the holidays. Of course, Peter, her mate, and Jasper, her close friend, had agreed to make her happy, which they did. As it was now why the trio was walking through the streets of New York City to the theater.

"It's up ahead on the street,” Charlotte exclaimed, gripping her mate’s hand tightly that making him wince. She picked up her pace to walk faster, dragging Peter with her who cannot take her excitement. As it is why, he hasn't said a word about her grip on him, so he wouldn't make her replace her excitement with guilt.

Peter looked behind him to lock eyes with his best friend, Jasper, as a way to plead with him to use his powers over Charlotte. He did love her and her excitement for the activity that they were going to do, but he could only handle so much of her. It was a way to calm her down before she would accidentally expose her abilities as a vampire due to her excitement. As well as Peter who was being treated as a rag doll by her the entire time of walking to the water with Jasper slightly behind them.

Jasper’s red eyes looked back at his friends with a hidden amusement behind them and a small smile on their faces. He just shook his head no to the side as his friend's antics entrained him. He did not want to be scolded by an angry Charlotte since she would know that he used his power on her. The reaction of Peters's face dropped at his answer made him let out a small chuckle from his lips with Peter not as amused as him.

And right before the trio’s eyes was the magnificent Palace theater located in the middle of the City. The Nutcracker's name was displayed out front of the building with the flashing bright lights lit up around it. People were dressed up in their formal evening wear as the sun had begun to set and were entering the venue. It made the three feel a little undressed, but they didn't care either way.

Charlotte began to walk towards the theater like a child in a candy store with Peter in hand as the giant lollipop.

While Jasper had a slower pace while walking to enjoy the scenery of the city as it was his first time there. His eyes roamed through the sights, the buildings, and the entire area around him until something caught his eyes. it was the ballet's official poster plastered onto the wall to show off to any on-lookers or to those that pass by.

The poster showed a single ballerina dressed in an icy blue-pink outfit and pink pointe shoes on her feet. A large award-winning smile appeared on her face as her light-colored eyes stared to the side. Her entire body was supported on one-pointed foot with the other behind her at a 90-degree angle and her arms reaching out. Above her body read the New York City Ballet company that represents Nutcracker with the dates, but it did not include who was the dancer on the poster.

Jasper could not help but felt intrigued by the poster that show the ballerina. He felt some type of feeling inside his body that he could not put his finger on and describe.

Expect, it might just be his hunger warning him to feed soon as he is surrounded by humans whose blood is pumping through their bodies. It also does not help that the ballerina has her neck stretched out showing her pale white skin that seems to glisten under the poster. It made his mouth somewhat water at the sight of her neck.

Yup. Jasper has to go hunting after this event with Charlotte and Peter. His hunger would probably get worse over time later, but he only gets that feeling when looking at the poster. He shook off that feeling when he heard Charlotte from afar saying his name, thanks to his vampire hearing.

“Jasper! Come on! We have to go inside and find our seats,” Charlotte quickly explained, still excited about the ballet even as they stood outside the venue.

Peter smiled moving his head towards the theater as a way to tell his friend to hurry up. He's also still in his mate’s tight grip as he just wants Jasper to catch up, so they could go inside and be free once they sit down.

Jasper looks forward to where the couple is and smiles at them. When he walks away from the poster, he could not help but felt weird letting go of that feeling he had. It felt sudden for it to go away quickly once he looked away and took one step back from it. The occurrence and feelings had slightly disturbed him but left it alone as he goes to keep up with the others.

The trio had entered the venue that was covered in Christmas and snow-related decorations as it was now the holidays. They were amazed by the popularity and cheer it brought to people while walking through the crowd. The inside contained a sea of people who were entering and leaving the restrooms or theater. It was rather a tight squeeze to navigate through for the three but they were able to go towards the theater and found their seats easily thanks to an available seat attendant.

Once they were seated and comfortable, they stared around the theater taking in the view as everyone started to get into their seats. Their view was perfect from where they were sitting, the seats were in the middle of the theater on the floor. It allowed them to set their eyes on the stage which was centered perfectly in the middle with no one's head blocking any one of them. Not to mention, their sight was enhanced as well due to being a vampire. Therefore, allowing them to see the stage in perfect vision with every detail noticeable to their deep red-colored eyes.

Charlotte's eyes could not help but stare at everything inside the theater and the stage. The scenery was completely new to her as she has never seen anything like this even before turning. "Isn't this place just beautiful to look at?“ loudly sighed the woman whose shoulders moved down from her question. "It is just gorgeous to look at,” Charlotte said, before adding, “even though we are a tad underdressed for this event.” Her hand slid down from Peter's upper limb to his forearm, slightly squeezing it while her eyes moved away from the stage and then to the other two.

That brought the two’s attention from what they were staring at to now her. They mentally agreed with her being underdressed, but they didn't care either way.

Jasper made a small hand gesture towards their surroundings commenting, “I do have to admit that I've never been in a place like this when I was with Maria."

"I've seen places like this in newspapers, but now I'm able to experience it. And with you two,” Peter added, patting Jasper's shoulder and squeezing his lover's thigh gently. He looked at Jasper due to him not leaving the Mexican coven not long ago and haven't been exposed much. So, he had to ask, “are you doing alright? Especially, with the huge crowds of people.”

Jasper gave him a small smile before answering, “I'm alright. Probably might have to hunt later after this." However, he didn't have the need or feeling to hunt for the next few days but just in case something might happen.

Peter nodded and was going to answer, but the music started to play aloud from the orchestra pit allowing the notes to fill the room. Which made Charlotte tug on his sleeve and her finger on her lips to hush the two. Their attention went towards the giant red curtain on stage as they wait for it to be drawn up.

The music began to reach the people's ears making their voices die down along with the mutters until it went completely silent. Now, the only thing being heard in the room was the music of the Nutcracker being played. The curtain was now being drawn up allowing the audience to see the set of the stage as the Nutcracker has officially now begun.

The Nutcracker in Jasper's opinion was that it was wonderful and entertaining to watch. Expect, the show just finished its first act which was about 40 minutes to an hour long, before they announced a short ten-minute intermission before they would move on to act two. It allowed the audience a small break to sneak in a stretch from sitting down or buying a snack before the show resumes again.

A couple of the trio had gone to see if any items of the show were being sold while Jasper stayed in his seat. He did enjoy the dancers and the show, but he could not get over the feeling from earlier. His body wanted to feel that urge and emotion he felt when he stared at that poster. He knew that he would be bothered about this until he could figure out what is happening.

As Jasper was deep into his thoughts, an announcement was made stating that the show would start soon and would like people to get back to their seats before the curtains are drawn back up. He noticed his friends coming back from the outside to where he was as the audience began to fill back up. And he began to mentally prepare himself for act two of the Nutcracker with how long it would be before another break was given.

Expect, a certain presence had appeared in his surroundings that he did not notice earlier and now sensed in the building. The presence was not quite strong around him, but he could feel it and wanted to just hunt it down. However, he could not just drop his plans with his best friends and leave early in the show. Jasper could only hope that the presence would stay until the end of the show and he could track the being with that presence.

The giant red curtains had drawn back up showing a now decorated land of sweets with the dancers in different costumes and the music playing loudly as ever. Everything was wonderful as Clara and the prince appeared again and the people welcomed him back with Clara. Multiple dances were being performed Jasper noticed the presence from earlier now became stronger.

He looked down at the booklet given to him earlier that contains the performances in the acts and started to go through them. His blood-red eyes went past act one towards act two seeing that the Waltz of the flowers was more than halfway done. A pas de deux dance next contains a guest soloist appearance as one of the important roles, the Sugar Plum Fairy.

Jasper looked back up noticing the waltz of flowers had finished with the music now changing into the iconic Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. The corps de ballet had moved back slightly from the center with smiles still on their faces. While Clara and the prince haven't moved and only looked in the direction of a new performer coming on stage.

The fairy's Cavalier had now appeared on stage where he smiled with his hand out to the side where he had come out of. This made everyone look to where his hand was reaching out to. A small pale hand reached out to the Cavalier’s hand, grasping it which allowed him to walk forward out to the center stage. He guided the person out behind him to show the one and only, Sugar Plum Fairy.

As they made it to the center of the stage, the two began to dance together to the music being played.

He noticed that the presence had become the strongest yet with a scent now appearing to his senses as it filled his nose. A soft, sweetly fresh aroma of white raspberries being freshly picked, daisy petals that are plucked, and a hint of sugar base musk pulled Jasper in. As soon as that fragrance hit him, all he wanted to do was pull that person with the scent towards him and hug them. it made his eyes almost black and roll back due to the feeling as the aroma did not help him.

When he got out of his trance, his red eyes located the owner of that intoxicating aroma and it landed right at the Sugar Plum Fairy. She had gorgeous (h/c) hair pulled back into a middle bun that was decorated in sparkles and a crown on top. it exposed her extended pale neck candy necklace wearing as a large smile appeared pink colored lips that reached her golden eyes. Her body had a beautiful handmade icy blue tutu with pink accents shown on the bodice and tutu.

Her skin seemed to sparkle brightly underneath the stage lights with every movement onstage. Her feet had on pointe shoes that looked to be new as she stood on the box of them, separating way from her cavalier. She became the diamond of the entire production as her partner went beside her to hold her waist to guide her.

Her features had away Jasper's attention the moment his eyes met her body and it never left her movements. When she extended any part of her body, it created the illusion of her being taller. The way she smoothly did the movements of the dance across the stage made it seem like it was easy to do. Especially, as if she had done it in her entire life just doing this single role. No mistakes could have been made with her being cast and only seemed perfect to the audience. Everything that the ballerina had done seemed flawless while captivating the audience, especially Jasper.

The entire time, the fairy was on stage, his eyes would not leave her, whether it be standing on stage or dancing he would only stare at her. He felt that if he looked somewhere she would leave and leave the faint smell of her scent behind. Inside, he knew that she would become important to him which was why his eyes were glued to her.

It was time for the final bows as every performer had bowed in order of their appearance. The only one left was the Sugar Plum Fairy as she walked to the front and went on one knee to the side, bowing deeply. The audience cheered loudly at her sight with Jasper standing up for her as he clapped loudly. While not moving his eyes away once.

As she moved her head back up, her golden eyes scanned the audience, only to meet blood-red eyes in return, right as the curtains were drawn back down.

Moulage pt.3 ⚜️ Masterlist ⚜️ Chapter 1: Il Était Une Fois

Fun facts:

Charlotte had to beg Peter and Jasper for weeks to see this ballet since November and the two agreed within the first week of December. (They cave in once she became very upset and acknowledged her weeks of asking).

Every poster (the one Jasper had seen) had to be hand painted after getting off the press where they had to match (Y/n)’s skin tone and paint over any of her skin showing as those parts seemed to be sparkling too much from the lights and flashes that it seemed to be too much for the eyes. No one could figure out had to fix it, even with the lighting until one suggest this idea.

Peter and Charlotte noticed Jaspers gaze at the poster and wondered why he was frozen like that, but they knew it wasn’t his thirst, so it had to be something else. *spoiler* they will later realize why after the show (this will be later written in the series, but not sure when)

Charlotte's begging to see the ballet is actually based off from a real life event experience that the author,Luvblue, had did where she begged her dad to see Sleeping Beauty the ballet with cousins which he would later agree to let her and brought the tickets.

A/n: Yay, the prologue is done no I hope you’re satisfied with it! The original idea for the prologue came from a fun fact I was going to publish, but transformed it into the prologue. As well as saying that updates will be very slow due to my writing process and other personal stuff (school and family and etc) that would take a majority of my time. I hope you enjoy the fun facts and the series so far!

chef’s note. hope you enjoy this comrade :DDD

3k milestone masterlist | main masterlist

one of the many things people of mondstadt know about the prince, barbatos, is the fact that he’s very close friends with one of the emperor of liyue’s children, you.

people around the kingdom are used to the sight of guards from liyue stationed by the palace whenever a festival is held in the kingdom, because they know that you often visit to celebrate the festivities with the prince, who’s always more than welcome to have you in his land.

it’s quite sweet really, seeing the both of you walking around the city is like seeing a couple going on a date. not to mention the fact that you look soft for the prince, and that’s an unusual sight for the usually stoic-looking general of liyue’s military.

in the palace, servants would swoon at the sight of barbatos walking around the palace gardens with you and hear the joyful laughs coming from the both of you. they’d all be delighted if you were chosen as the co-ruler of mondstadt, to be honest.

if only they knew that’s what venti wanted more than anything in this life.

for as long as he can remember, he’s been longing to have you as his lover. back when he mourned for his twin when he died a tragic fate, no one was there for him but you, who stayed by his side when he welcomed the arms of grief. if it weren’t you, venti would have long lost the motivation to live.

there’s not a single day when he doesn’t think of you. even in the place where you can’t go, he finds you there in his dreams, only to wake up and find himself on his cold bed, longing for your love even more.

but alas, venti knows that your love will never reach him.

dvalin, who’s the king of the nation and venti’s father, has been under a long-span slumber in order to refrain himself from yielding to his corrupted curse that will turn him into a powerful dragon, leaving his son to become a “temporary” leader for mondstadt, who doesn’t seem to mind. however, as years went by, mondstadt has slowly went from one of the strongest nations to the weakest under venti’s rule.

for this reason, venti had no choice but to plan an arranged marriage.

of course, you would definitely be the only person he’d choose. so when the nobles who are a part of the royal court have persisted that venti should now choose his co-ruler, he decided to use this chance to bring up how he’ll ask you to marry him in the next festival.

much to his dismay however, there are two circumstances that prevents him from doing so.

one is the fact that there’s a chance that you’ll reject his offer. the second one on the other hand—

“unfortunately your highness, you’re forbidden from marrying general y/n from the kingdom of liyue.” jean said with a pity look when she and venti walked out from the meeting room. “as you said, it is considered since general y/n is related to osial, who is the ruler of liyue. however, it’s recently announced that they will be marrying someone else as arranged by the emperor.”

venti instantly stopped his tracks.

the general instantly realized what she said, her exhausted facade instantly disappeared as regret washes over her. the woman knew how much he cherished you more than anything, so if he were to find out about your.. future spouse…

silence fell upon the hallway, and jean could only dread the worst reaction she’ll ever get to witness from one of the people she respects the most.

much to her shock however, the prince lets out a giggle, and when he turns to the general’s direction, she feels the shivers running down her spine at the sight of his darkened eyes, his face still holding a smile that’s surely fake.

“who is y/n marrying?”

the next time you visit venti’s palace, you could tell how the atmosphere has gone dark.

venti was surely something else, you thought. despite looking so cheerful when he saw you walking towards him, he couldn't really hide the empty void in his eyes.

“took you long enough to get here!” he exclaims, wrapping his arms around you with a giggle. “how was your trip? i hope it went smoothly.”

you smiled. you can’t bring yourself to ask your dear friend about his facade. “it was smooth, thank you–”

“so when were you planning to tell me you were going to marry soon?”

you stumbled over your words as soon as you heard his sudden question, staring at the prince as though he has two heads.

“...i’m sorry?”

venti continues to smile. he’s acting as if he’s not asking something that he shouldn’t know about. “when were you planning to tell me you were going to marry someone?” he repeated, leaning towards you, causing you to lean backwards.

“how.. how did you find ou–”

he giggles. “oh come on, y/n! you know your kingdom, your people are quite fast with the news. it even managed to reach my people’s ears! it’s quite fascinating don’t you think?”

you frowned. “you.. you weren’t supposed to find out about this…”

his smile instantly drops. “why not? aren’t i your bestest friend in the world?”

“w-well yes, but… it’s just i know you wouldn’t approve because of the person i’m going to marry.”

“dottore, right?”

your eyes looked away from him, your silence was enough of an answer already.

“your father is unforgivable. doesn’t he know that trash is a despicable man? doesn’t he know the things he committed?” he asks calmly.

“he does,” you spoke, your voice went low. “he does know that lord dottore is a cruel man, but he’s also a powerful one in snezhnaya. there’s nothing i can do to stop him, so i must endure it.”

venti shakes his head in disapproval. “you mustn’t, doesn’t your brother know about this? why isn’t he doing anything?”

“zhongli has too many burdens on his shoulders as the crown prince of the empire. if i.. if i were to tell him that i want to cut off my engagement with lord dottore, i’ll only make him feel more stressed out.” you explained, letting out a sad sigh from the thought of your distant brother, who’s buried in tasks as the crown prince of liyue. “besides, he can’t do anything about it either since he can’t control father.”

you then wince when you realize there are also matters that you have to do for the wedding, feeling guilty.

“i.. don’t want to make things worse, but i have to let you know that i can’t stay here for long.” you brought up, watching as venti’s expression instantly falls.

“why?” he asks. it almost feels as though you’re rejecting his love – his heart can’t take it! why is everything going downhill?!

your shoulders slump. “i’m afraid i have to go back to my home to settle matters regarding the wedding next month. we’re just lucky that my father allowed me to go here even if it’s just for two days.”

“two days…?” that isn’t even enough for venti to satisfy his time with you! he can’t imagine spending one of his favorite festivals without you – why is the world so cruel?

wait.. what if he won’t be able to see you again as soon as you marry dottore?

when you finally looked back at the prince, you didn’t fail to notice how his jaw clenches, and you had mistaken it as him being angered by osial’s choice of your spouse.

in reality, he was just angered that he couldn't be of help to you. he had always wanted to return the favor and help you, just like how you helped him during his darkest days when he grieved for his twin.

you gave him a reassuring smile. “i know you’re disappointed, but i can assure you that i’ll make it up to you by staying here for more than a week even after the festival next time.”

“but..” venti stops himself. it’s no use, even if he begs on his knees and kills his dignity for you, it won’t stop you from marrying that disgusting piece of trash.

he then sighs, faking his defeat as a mask to hide his scheming thoughts that’s running through his head. “i just want you to be safe. if you ever feel troubled and… need to get away from your home, you can always send a letter to me and i shall send a ship that will take you here safely.”

you shook your head. “there’s no need for that. i appreciate your concern though.”

“the offer still stands. mondstadt will always welcome you whenever you feel like you want to come here.”

before you could say anything else, venti immediately throws an arm around you and drags you outside from the throne room, his joyful attitude returns as fast as the winds. “that’s why we should get out of the palace and celebrate! i’m sure people are wondering where we are, ehe!”

as you try to collect yourself and try to keep up with his pace, venti glances towards a certain guard’s way, causing the guard to look at the prince.

“prepare for tonight.” he mouthed.

it took a month to fix his plan. he took the chance of your wedding as an excuse to visit snezhnaya and help you with your wedding. sure, it does hurt to see you and dottore together (despite the uncomfortable look on your face whenever you’re found standing beside the noble), but it was worth it,

especially since he knows the fate that dottore will fall into the night before your wedding.

venti is quite relieved that his father managed to give him two assassins (and people who don’t question his actions) as his personal knights. it would’ve been a hassle if he were to do this alone.

it seems like celestia approves of his actions. just seeing dottore walking out from his duchy and walking around the forest is like offering himself on a silver plate to death. it’s amusing how he didn’t notice three figures following him in the shadows.

without a second thought, venti immediately cued kaeya and rosaria to take dottore.

“you’re all insolent fools!” dottore yelled with a maniacal laugh, thrashing around as kaeya and rosaria, venti’s most trusted knights, grip the noble’s arms tightly. they were lucky dottore wandered this far in the forest, nosy servants in the duchy would’ve instantly rushed over to find the commotion if they were nearby. “how dare you touch a noble who hasn’t done anything wrong!? when her majesty hears this, she will raise hell–”

“and who on earth gave you the right to plead your innocence when it’s obvious that you’ve committed so many wrongdoings?” venti interrupts, bringing his weapon out as the noble is forced to kneel down against the cold ground. “especially when you had just called a prince an insolent fool, hehe.”

he then aims his bow towards the helpless man, his eyes darkening. “you should’ve rot in jail back then. the tsaritsa truly disappoints me for bailing a cruel man like you.” he spoke, watching as dottore froze from the sight of the winds starting to move around the prince’s arrow.

“if you left my dearest y/n alone, you wouldn’t even be in this situation.”

without letting the noble process his words, venti immediately lets go of the arrow, causing it to shoot straight to dottore’s forehead, an instant kill.

well that was easy.

“your highness, what shall we do if someone reported that dottore is missing? those servants of his will notice his absence and try looking for him. wouldn’t this cause a crime and an instant investigation?” kaeya asks, paying no mind to the sight of the noble’s gorey corpse on the ground.

venti could feel his mouth twitching upwards. the incident that occurred earlier was enough to make the sight of the prince’s expression eerie. “sir kaeya, what are you talking about?” he immediately turns around to the blue-haired man’s direction, and a small smile creeps up on his face.

venti could feel his heart beating in excitement at the thought of you sending a letter to him talking about how you’re no longer going to get married with an eager look on your face!

ah, not to mention the fact that you’ll now be able to marry him without it being considered as forbidden!

he then gestures at the rotting corpse. “just set him on fire to hide our traces. if his bones remain, then feel free to give it to sir andrius’s wolves. i’m sure they’d be delighted to have new bones to bite on.”

“after all, would they report a crime if there’s no sight of a dead body?”

Hi Court! I’ve had a thought/thot regarding Frank catching his neighbor’s husband cheating, he confronts her with the news, and their own romance blossoms. “Picture me thick as thieves with your ex-wife. And she looks so pretty driving in your Benz.”Please if you can/want to make this a Midnights Vault Track. 🌃✨

OH I LOVE THIS

I put a little spin on the "she looks so pretty driving in your benz", but I don't think you'll mind ;)

as a reminder, from the vault means it's spicy! (minors dni)

blurb below the cut

vigilante shit (frank's version) (from the vault)*

picture me thick as thieves with your ex-wife

Deep down, Frank knew he shouldn’t have gotten involved. It wasn’t his business. He had enough lingering problems of his own nipping at his heels, he didn’t need to get involved in someone else's.

But you were so goddamn sweet to him. You had brought him a container of homemade chocolate chip cookies when he first moved in next door, all bright eyes and soft smiles, introducing yourself with the most angelic voice he had ever heard. You knew he lived alone, so you silently dropped leftovers off on his porch some nights when your husband was out of town or working late, which he often did, with the guise that you didn’t know how to cook for one person and didn’t want the food going to waste.

You went all out for the holidays to entertain the neighborhood kids, and even after coming home from a long day with the exhaustion clearly tainting your kind face, you made time to play with them in the front yard for awhile, or offer help with their homework.

Frank thought you were an actual angel, which is why the first time he caught your husband cheating on you, he nearly unleashed the vengeful side of himself that lusted for the blood of the wicked. He thought you would eventually catch him considering the asshole wasn’t exactly stealthy about it. The whole neighborhood seemed to know about his multitude of affairs…everyone except you. Finally, Frank reached a breaking point. He couldn’t listen to the hushed whispers that haunted you about the infidelity taking place in your own home.

One night when your husband was away, Frank marched over to your front door and told you the truth everyone else had been keeping from you. He gave you a folder full of photos that he had taken, tangible evidence of your husband’s unfaithful escapades. It broke his heart to see the streams of betrayal that slipped down your cheeks, and he hated that he had to be the one to do it, but he knew it was for your own good. You didn’t deserve to be treated like that. You deserved to be loved and worshiped…to be placed on the highest pedestal in someone’s heart.

In the end, Frank was glad he got involved.

Because if he hadn’t, he wouldn’t be fucking you in the back of your ex-husband’s Mercedes that you got in the divorce.

Frank’s large hand slid up your neck to wrap his thick fingers around it loosely, his index finger resting along the edge of your jaw and his thumb brushing over your bottom lip. Your dress was hiked all the way up to your waist, and his jeans were pushed just far enough down his thighs to free his cock, all plans of your romantic dinner date completely forgotten. He stared down at you almost in awe as he fucked you slowly, but deeply, making sure to hit that delectable spot deep within you that drove you wild. A crooked grin stretched across his mouth hearing how good his name sounded falling from your parted lips.

“Look so pretty, baby. So fuckin’ pretty.”

One of the few bright spots of 2020 for me was that it allowed me the chance to read more fanfic than ever before, and I was able to join the Sterek fandom!

I have read literally hundreds of Sterek fics and met many wonderful people! So I figured i should celebrate!

I’ve compiled a list of my favorite Sterek fics that were published in 2020.

**ETA - Updated title card and format 3/13/23**

Kasey rolls to her back and throws an arm over her eyes, her head pounding. So much for staying sharp and focused. Keeping her eyes sealed tight against the light creeping around the edges of the curtains, she hears Dean’s question ringing in her ears.

When he asked if she could really help him, the anguish and fatigue in his voice had almost broken her. Fingernails digging into the wood banister, she had faced the torment in his eyes head-on. He looked like a kicked puppy. She wished she could have assured him that it would all work out, but while she’s optimistic, she’s also a realist and doesn’t want to give him any false hopes. So, she promised to do what she could to help him.

Salty drops pooled along his bottom lashes, turning them into dark feathery spikes. Before she could do or say anything further, he had turned and hurried away. She wasn’t sure how long she stood there, but it took a lot of restraint not to go after him.

Kasey shifts to her side and hugs a pillow as she replays everything Dean had told her last night. His marriage had been spiraling for a couple of years. He’d suspected for quite some time that his wife was having an affair but hadn’t found anything to substantiate it. Her odd behavior finally drove him to follow her to a sleazy motel and watch as she met up with another man, making out in the parking lot before disappearing into the lobby. That had been two days before she was killed.

In those two days, he had dug deeper and finally found proof of not only one but two indiscretions, along with discovering a bank account under her maiden name that contained several thousand dollars. He had a tech friend do a bit of digging and found a phone account, also in her maiden name, that produced visual proof of the affairs. The illegal information gathering hadn’t won him any points in court.

Kasey’s first thought was that for a seasoned DEA agent, the woman didn’t seem to be well-versed in covert operations. The use of her maiden name was a rookie mistake. It didn’t sit right with Kasey, so she added it to her list of items to research further.

After hearing how quickly his case was pushed through the system and the oversights made in the process of his defense, she has a better understanding of the factors that led to his imprisonment. It was an election year, and with his wife being a federal agent, it turned into a high-profile case. Dean was a convenient suspect of whom they made an example for a quick resolution. The media ate it up.

As Dean expounded on the trial proceedings and the prosecution’s claims, Kasey ticked off boxes in her head, making mental notes, pieces to a puzzle she would fit together later. Some particulars didn’t quite fit, didn’t quite make sense. It seemed that missteps were made during his arrest and the subsequent investigation—errors that supplied reasonable doubt that might have helped his defense if they had been adequately presented.

Once the prosecution revealed their ace in the hole, the murder weapon, a kitchen knife covered in the victim’s blood, and Dean’s fingerprints, it had become an open-and-shut case in the eyes of the jury. Dean was a scorned man looking for revenge. It took them less than thirty minutes to convict him unanimously.

The knowledge that the murder was committed with a knife, a weapon typically used in crimes of passion, had momentarily given her pause. It had taken a couple of minutes, but her alcohol-laced brain eventually connected the fact that it wouldn’t be unusual for Dean’s prints to be on a knife from his own kitchen. Not to mention, he had seemed very comfortable in her kitchen, so it stood to reason that he cooked at home. However, Dean had said that he didn’t remember seeing the knife when he discovered his wife’s body. So, where did it come from? Who had found it?

However, Kasey knows she can’t just take Dean at his word or base his habeas case on presumptions. To file with the court and overturn the conviction, they will need concrete evidence of who killed his wife, and the sooner she starts working on it, the better. He’s being hunted, and while her farm is out in the boonies, it isn’t completely safe.

“Ugh!” Head still throbbing, she finally peels an eyelid open and groans. The room is a lot brighter than usual when she wakes up. Slowly turning her head, she blinks to focus on her alarm clock, the dial reading a quarter after nine. “Shit!” It’s over three hours after she usually rises.

She bolts upright, immediately regretting the movement, and buries her head in her hands, waiting for the wooziness to pass. After a couple of moments, she carefully climbs from her bed and staggers to the bathroom, ignoring the mirror until after relieving her bladder.

Christ, she looks like crap, but she doesn’t have time to do anything about it. She needs to get downstairs and fix breakfast. Securing her hair out of her face in a half updo, she quickly brushes her teeth and downs some aspirin. At least she doesn’t have to worry about raccoon eyes since she rarely wears makeup anymore.

Stepping back into the bedroom, she looks to her nightstand. The dark teal phone sits there like the elephant in the room. After a moment’s hesitation, she picks up the receiver and is greeted by the steady hum of the dial tone when she brings it to her ear. Placing the handset back in the cradle, she nods. “Alright, then, time to stir up some trouble.”

She slides the chair from beneath the handle and unlocks the door. While she believes Dean, and he hasn’t attempted to harm her up to this point, she’s not an idiot. He’s a stranger, a convicted felon that she let loose in her home.

Okay, maybe not a complete idiot.

Until she gets to know him a little better, she still needs to be judicious about her safety.

Upon opening the door, the scent of rich, earthy coffee wafts around her, and she inhales the transcendental aroma like it’s the last breath she’ll ever take. It seems her gorgeous fugitive is already up and about. She quickly pads down the stairs, trying not to jostle her aching head too much.

Walking into the kitchen, she finds Dean setting the table. He smiles when he sees her. “Hey, there you are! I was just about to go up and knock on your door.”

His voice is just a little too loud for her ears, and she scrunches her face in disdain. “Shush.” Kasey squints at him because, christ, it’s too sunny and bright in here, and how is he so damn chipper? “Coffee first,” she grumbles and makes a beeline for the coffee maker, only to find the pot empty. Pouting, she turns in place, trying to see where the scent of her life’s blood is coming from.

Dean chuckles, handing her a cup and pointing to the French Press sitting on the table—the carton of cream next to it.

She looks at him in awe, mouth falling open. Never in a million years would she have pegged him for a pressed coffee kind of guy.

Raising his brows, he licks his lips and stares back at her with a smug little smile. “I couldn’t find a sugar bowl, so I assume you don’t use any?”

“Hmph.” Snapping her mouth closed, she turns on her heel and heads for the table. Sliding into a chair, she hears Dean softly humming a tune and peeks at him from the corner of her eye.

He seems to have shed the cloak of heaviness he’s worn since she first saw him—broad shoulders set a little straighter, eyes a bit brighter, and an easiness in his manner that wasn’t there before. It makes her feel warm, fuzzy, and maybe a tiny bit proud that she might have had a hand in the change.

Before she has a chance to reach for the coffee, Dean is there and pouring her a cup. Looking at her questioningly, he tilts his head toward the cream, and she nods in reply. After setting the container back down, he remains by the table, biting his lip, not saying a word.

Kasey wants to pinch herself because she’s not used to having someone wait on her like this. First last night and now this morning, and certainly not by anyone as good-looking as him. She has a fleeting thought that he’s just buttering her up, trying to win her over and lull her into a false sense of security before showing his true colors, but hastily chastises herself and squelches the thought.

She told him she believed him, every instinct telling her he was not lying. If she is going to be of any help to him, she needs to stop doubting herself and get on with it. The heat of embarrassment at her internal struggle, coupled with the rush of adrenaline at Dean’s proximity, rises in her cheeks, and she drops her chin. She makes a show of smelling the coffee, like it’s a fine wine, and blowing on the steaming liquid before taking a sip.

An obscene moan escapes her mouth, and she quickly bites her bottom lip to prevent any more mortifying sounds from passing through them. It’s probably the best coffee she’s ever tasted. Strong but not too bitter, just like she likes it. Slouching back into the chair, she eyes Dean over the rim of her cup, that damn sexy smile plastered on his face.

“Coffee’s okay?”

“Mhm-hmm,” she hums, taking another sip, still trying to mask the near orgasmic euphoria she feels as the smoky and subtle chocolaty notes dance over her taste buds.

He raps his knuckles against the tabletop, smiling wide as he finally steps away. “So, the coffee’s a hit. What's your stance on pancakes?”

“I am pro-pancakes.” She looks over to find him pulling a tray of pancakes and bacon from the oven that he’d apparently put there to keep warm. “Holy shit, I think I’m in love!” Quickly clearing her throat, she stammers, “I- I love pancakes and bacon.”

Ugh.

She wants to smack that smug look off his face, which seems to be a permanent feature of his demeanor now. Hoping to get her thoughts back to more neutral territory, she asks, “How’d you sleep?”

Dean places a stack of pancakes and what looks like half a slab of bacon on her plate before setting the tray down between them. “Great. Gotta love that memory foam.” He goes to the fridge and pulls out another tray filled with bowls, grabbing a butter dish she forgot she even owned off the island on his way back to the table.

Placing everything next to the first tray, he sits opposite her as he did last night and starts piling food onto his plate.

She’s aware that he’s talking to her but isn’t paying any attention as she stares dumbfounded at the array of food before her. There are perfectly diced strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, sliced bananas, chopped nuts, powdered sugar, syrup, chocolate sauce, apple butter, a can of whipped cream, and a bowl of mini chocolate chips.

“Kasey?” His tone is a little louder, a bit sharper, and it finally captures her attention.

“Oh, uh, yeah?”

“Everything okay?” He sounds concerned. “I’m sorry if I shouldn’t have used all of this. I didn’t know what you liked for toppings.”

Her mouth is still hanging open as she raises her eyes to him. He laughs and reaches over, crooking a finger under her chin and pushing it closed. If he hadn’t left it there a fraction longer than necessary, her jaw would have dropped again at the sensation of his rough skin brushing against the tender flesh of her throat.

There’s a shift in his eyes, a flicker of darkness, before he drops his gaze and pulls his hand back. Heat rolls through her body like a fire lit by gasoline, and she sucks in a breath. She clenches her hands on the tabletop to steady herself, silently counting to ten to calm her racing heart. She’s still staring when he looks back up.

“Listen, I’m really sorry if I overstepped.” As he fidgets in his seat, the agitation in his voice cuts through her stupor.

“No, no. It’s just-” She clears her throat. “It’s fine. I just-” Tilting her head to the side, she chuckles, “How long have you been up?”

Dean visibly relaxes, expelling a low huff of breath. “A while. My sleep patterns are kinda screwed up right now.” He shrugs a shoulder. “I got four hours in. Figured you needed the extra sleep, so I took a walk around the property and then sat on the porch for a bit. It’s peaceful here.” He seems a little lost in thought for a moment, but then the smug smirk, his armor, is quickly put back in place as she continues to stare. “I finished the pancakes just a couple of minutes before you came down.”

“Wow, well, thank you. It looks delicious.”

“I checked the phones; they’re back up.”

Oh, he’s good. Would make an excellent opponent in poker— face blank, body language open, voice inflection even, eyes focused and steady. He just casually slipped that right in there like he was talking about the weather. If she hadn’t caught the tiny ripple of muscle as he clenched his jaw before taking a sip of his coffee, she might believe that he isn’t concerned about the connection they now have to the world at large.

“Yeah, I did, too, before I came down.” She smiles softly. “I haven’t called anyone yet. Wanted to talk to you about it first.”

He seems to accept the explanation, but there’s a slight hitch of tension in his shoulders again, probably worried that she's changed her mind and will call the authorities. The thought hasn’t crossed her mind since she talked herself around in the bathroom yesterday. She promised to help him, and she’s never broken a promise. However, Dean doesn’t know her all that well, so all she can do is be patient and show him that she will stand by him. Prove to him he’s no longer alone in facing the daunting task ahead of him.

“After breakfast, I’ll show you some more of the property,” she says, hoping if he has a lay of the land, he’ll relax again. “Take you out to the place my little homestead was named after.” She grabs a bowl containing one of her favorite toppings and dumps half of the contents over her stack of pancakes.

Dean laughs as he watches her smother the golden discs with more ingredients. “Crossroads Creek, right?” At the arch of her brow, he adds, “I saw a plaque on one of the barns.”

“Yeah. It’s been in my family for four generations now, over 150 years.” She picks up her fork and cuts a bite from the tower on her plate.

“Are you actually going to eat all of that?” He flicks the tines of his fork toward her food-ladened dish, a huge grin on his face.

“Damn, straight, I am. A handsome man cooks me breakfast? No way I’m letting it go to waste.” Kasey looks him square in the eyes as she shoves a heaping forkful of the warm, perfectly fluffy dough covered in berries and whipped cream into her mouth.

“So you think I’m handso-”

He stares wide-eyed as she cuts off his flirty quip with a loud appreciative moan around the combination of warm, pillowy dough and sweet, tart toppings exploding on her tongue. Kasey smiles to herself at his reaction. The man is such a contradiction. The juxtaposition of the charming, flirty alleged killer to the man that is struck silent over her obvious enjoyment of the meal he prepared for her is something to behold.

A rush of exhilaration spreads through her like wildfire, giving her a boost of confidence, and she throws him a wink. Scooping up another bite, she slides it between her lips and mumbles, “‘s so ‘ood.”

The tips of his ears turn bright pink as he bites his bottom lip and then drops his head. She holds in a chuckle as he quickly takes a bite of his food and shifts in his seat.

After the first bite, Dean begins to shovel food into his mouth. The silence, while not uncomfortable, extends between them, and Dean finally looks up from his plate.

She laughs aloud at the sight of his mouth stuffed full of food. With any other man, she would have found it off-putting, but he looks absurdly adorable with his cheeks all puffed out—like a chipmunk or cute little squirrel.

Dean bobs his head, a sheepish grin on his face. “‘m ‘ry,” he mumbles around the food before hastily chewing and swallowing, nearly choking on the mass.

Seeing that self-conscious grin abruptly mars her little moment of joy, a pang jolting through her heart at the thought of how many meals he must have missed or had to rush through to avoid being caught by staying in one place for too long. It takes all of her resolve not to leap from her chair and wrap her arms around him, offer him some comfort, and let him know that he won’t have to worry about that ever again if she has any say in the matter.

Despite her heady thoughts, the weird tension between them slips away. They enjoy the rest of their meal, with Dean listening attentively as Kasey animatedly tells him the history of her family’s farm.

“Hey, how’s your wound?” she asks as they finish cleaning the dishes.

“Good. Where’d you learn to stitch like that?”

“My grandmother was a quilter.”

“Seriously?” The look Dean gives her is a mix of dread, disbelief, and admiration.

“Yeah. Well, that and I took a survival course once. Boss forced me to take some time off, and I was bored,” she shrugs, “thought it would be fun.”

Dean’s still staring at her like she’s some apparition that he can’t quite comprehend but is curious to understand. The intensity in his gaze makes her uncomfortable, and she turns away, folding the towel and laying it on the counter.

“Come on, let’s go upstairs and find you some better-fitting clothes.” She looks him over and has to bite back the laugh that rises in her throat, once again, taking in the appearance of the too-small clothing covering his burly frame.

Dean helps her move boxes as she tries to locate the one she needs. “Ah, ha!” Peeling the tape away that seals the box, Kasey peers into the cardboard square and instantly feels the tears pressing at the backs of her eyes. The clothes are musty but still carry the lingering scent of her grandfather.

Brushing an arm across her eyes to hide the emotional distress from Dean, she pulls a shirt from the box. It’s a purple plaid, one of her favorites. The material is soft from wear, and she brings it to her cheek, closing her eyes and briefly getting lost in the memories. She feels the air shift as Dean steps up behind her, peering over her shoulder.

“That’s a lot of flannel,” he laughs. “A little warm out for that right now, isn’t it?”

“It’s going to start getting cooler in the evenings, so you should take a couple.” She hands him the shirt, digs through the box, and shakes out a black and white plaid. A couple of minutes later, Dean is holding a stack of jeans and shirts.

“We’ll need to wash-”

A car door slams outside. Kasey drops the gray Henley she’s holding and runs to the small attic window. “Dammit,” she exclaims, turning to find an ashen-faced Dean looking like a skittish thoroughbred ready to bolt.

“Dean,” she calls tentatively, knowing that she needs to get downstairs quickly, but any sudden movements may send him racing for an exit and straight into the path of their unexpected visitors.

The glacial stare and brittle edge to his voice are colder than the hinges of Hell’s door. “Friends of yours?”

SteveTony Weekly - August 15th

Happy Sunday!! Here’s what I’ve been reading this week. As always, leave your fic authors some love if you read and enjoy their stories!

**Indicates my recent favs

~*~

the wrong song by areiton (What If…? Fixit/500)

It takes three weeks before he stops smelling squid and blood every time he inhales.

It takes longer than that for him to accept that there was no way back.

building on muddy ground by InTheShadows (Barbarian AU/8K)

When barbarians successfully invade the castle Tony does not expect to live much longer. His parents have already been killed. He is sure to follow. The great Captain of the North is not exactly known for his mercy after all. That is why it is a complete surprise when he is kept alive instead. And not even for the purpose of becoming a bed warmer or slave. No, apparently the Captain has 'taken a liking to him' and means to keep him around for much more innocent purposes. For as long as he doesn't get tired of him that is. Until then all Tony can do is fearfully wait for that day.

let me hear (your battle cry) by areiton (Royalty AU/16K)

Steve shouted again, that damn battle cry that made Tony shudder, and he drove his shield up, slammed into the knight's helm, again and again until his arm came up, his sword dropping and---

Steve’s sword came to rest in the hollow of his throat.

For a heartbeat, the whole field, the spectators and court, held their breath.

And then he fell back a step and the trumpets sounded as he thrust his shield into the sky and wheeled around, grinning and wild-eyed, and searching for Tony.

Oh, Tony thought, a single dismayed realization

the bro code by Sullen (Getting Together/3k)

In a world where the Winter Soldier is found years earlier and is named Tony’s godfather, Zemo plays a different R-rated video and Siberia goes a little differently.

Or –

Steve breaks the bro code.

shine your light (i can’t see without it) by DobbyRocksSocks (Presumed Dead/16k)

When Tony loses Steve, he loses everything. Unable to stay in New York, he settles himself in the middle of nowhere, with only his bots and JARVIS for company. When Natasha and Bruce come to him for help, Tony can't say no, but what he finds is more than he can handle. With so many emotions warring, and so much confusion, can the team come back together when it matters?

i’m coming home with a question by anxious_soul (Established Relationship/4k)

In which Steve is coming home after his last tour and Tony's there to pick him up from the airport (with Bucky) and something unexpected happens.

AKA Bucky and Tony meet at therapy, Steve and Tony are introduced and things go up, then down, then up again.

dead man walking by spnaph (Canon divergent/8k)

Bucky was going to kill him.

Bucky was going to kill him and yet he couldn’t feel shame or regret for doing what he did.

Holy shit.

He slept with his brother’s best friend.

He was a dead man walking, he knew it.

love me and never leave me by Toshi_1234 (No Powers AU/10K)

Bucky and Tony got adopted by the Jarvis' and Bucky was the perfect older brother to Tony. Tony's graduation is in two days and Bucky is off on a mission in Iraq with Steve and he just wants Bucky to be there on his big day but Bucky said he couldn't make it. I suck at summaries.

an american celebrations by WilmaKins (PWP/9K)

One benefit of having finally dealt with all their issues, and been honest about all their feelings, is that Steve and Tony are actually so much closer than they were before Siberia...

Which, amongst other things, means a very happy birthday for Steve.

violets (happiness) by S_Horne (Kidfic/3k)

Morgan has always dreamt that her dad and her Uncle Steve would finally realise they were meant to be together. Maybe she can give them one last push as she introduces Steve to the wonders of the 21st century.

insomnia by Scavenge4Dreams (Established Relationship/10k)

Its 3am. Do you know where your Genius Billionaire Playboy Philanthropist is?

if you never say your name out loud to anyone by theladyingrey42 (H/C/7K)

Sometimes, Steve has panic attacks.

Or at least he used to. Nowadays, he mostly just has conversations with Tony Stark.

Unbroken by justanotherrollingstony (adoctoraday) (A/B/O /134k)

Destiny looks a lot like Captain America when it walks through his door, and even at ten, Tony knows that Steve is something wonderful. He's a protector, a friend, someone to turn to when his father is angry and his mother is lost in a haze of pills, someone who loves Tony unconditionally and would do anything for him.

When he's 15 that faith is put to the test by a car crash, and then, something worse.

What begins as a friendship blossoms into something deeper, something nuanced-a bond, unshakeable.

Unbreakable

please let me get what i want (this time) by theappleppielifestyle (Getting Together/4k)

He wants to run a hand through his hair, bite down on his lip, rumple his shirt, mess him up a little and pull the Stark away until it’s just Tony, who doesn’t need to fake anything.

And there’s two minutes and fifty-three seconds left, according to the clock, and Steve hears it in his throat, and his heart is rattling around in his chest, and he feels like he’s going to overflow.

He looks over at Tony, and it bursts: IwantIwantIwantIwant, over and over, beating a rhythm at the back of his eyes.

Four Times Steve Said I Love You and One Time Tony Said It First by nightwalker (Getting Together/3k)

The words are easier for Steve to say, but that doesn't mean that Tony feels it any less.

if i time it right the thunder breaks (when i open my mouth) by nanasekei (Getting Together/12k)

“You know,” Tony mumbles, because Tony never stops talking. “When you say shit like - like that, it’s… It’s hard.” His voice is slurred now, his eyes closed, as if he’s not even sure he’s still saying anything aloud. “Because I know I should believe you, but I – I wanna believe it so bad, so fucking much, that it feels like I shouldn’t. Like, the second I believe it, the other shoe’s gonna drop, and you’re gonna find out you don’t mean it.”

Or: Five Times Steve told Tony he loved him, and one time he didn't need to

the strange case of tony stark’s pajamas by nanasekei (Bedsharing/8k)

Steve parted his lips and, thankfully, actual words came out, instead of the very embarrassing noise he, for a horrifying second, thought he might be about to make. “Don’t worry about it,” he said, turning on his back to stare at the ceiling. “It’s your pajamas, you can wear whatever you want.”

There was a pause. Then Tony let out a low, short laugh.

“Good,” he said, turning around, leaving Steve to carefully count every crack in the ceiling to avoid staring at his back muscles.

In which sharing a bed with Tony should be easy, but, for some reason, it keeps getting harder.

***must love dogs by softanticipation (No Powers AU/43K)

Steve doesn't need to know much about Tony Stark to want to keep sleeping with him. In fact, he'd prefer to keep it that way.

But when Tony meets Steve's dog and gets unexpectedly attached, Steve has some decisions to make regarding his four-legged best friend and the guy he might know better than he thinks.

MDZS fics i treasure (2)

parts 1, 2, 3

The Simplest Way Forward by harriet_vane

[explicit, lan wangji/wei wuxian, 71k, complete]

one of the classics. this is also the fic that got me into the whole mdzs fandom. i literally just searched up kid fic on ao3 and this one seemed promising... so i read it without knowing who tf lan wangji or wei wuxian are... fast forward a few months later and all i can think about is “wangxian are married and have a son.” THEY’RE MARRIED AND HAVE A SON. now take that knowledge and add in modern wangxian as university music students who get married to take care of a-yuan and you’ve got yourselves this brilliant fic. also, i did not know you can endlessly pine for your own husband but with wangxian, anything’s possible

Neatly Arranged by thunderwear

[teen and up, lan wangji/wei wuxian, jiang yanli/jin zixuan, 45k, complete]

yes. i love arranged marriage wangxian fics okay ! they’re my guilty pleasure. this one’s unique because lwj’s actually bethrothed to jiang yanli and jin zixuan’s bethrothed to wwx which is actually kind of funny especially when jzx asks lwj if he wants to switch. it does get angsty but there’s a happy ending !

Night of Sixth Magnitude Stars by Leffy

[mature, lan wangji/wei wuxian, 22k, complete]

modern au with student lwj and teacher wwx although it’s only for the first chapter. THIS FIC. OH MY GOD. i literally got tricked, i thought it would be lighthearted and fluffy but the angst (specifically for wwx’s character) broke my heart. THE PLOT IS AMAZING, PLEASE READ IT

one good thing by Yuu_chi

[teen and up, lan wangji/wei wuxian, 26k, complete]

this one’s a classic, one of the first few mdzs fics i read and i absolutely love it. modern au with ghost wwx and house owner lwj *squeals* IT’S SO FLUFFY... and then gets quite a bit angsty at the end, i swear your heart stops at that scene. anyway it’s such a good read sigh,,, might re-read

Pigtail Pulling by protos_metazu_ison

[general, lan wangji/wei wuxian, 3k, complete]

whenever i’m feeling down, this fic always manages to cheer me up. it’s very lighthearted, just fluffy wangxian in cloud recesses: wwx teasing lwj and lwj teases back and absolutely flusters wwx. it’s just SO CUTE

Rush Hour by Ulan

[teen and up, lan wangji/wei wuxian, 3k, completed]

basically modern wangxian in public transport, pressed up against each other, with a dash of protective lwj and damsel in distress wwx. warning, there is minor sexual assault but the rest is just fluffy wangxian <3

seldom all they seem by Fahye

[explicit, lan wangji/wei wuxian, 24k, complete]

yes... another arranged marriage fic... i have nothing to say for myself. but this one’s just the usual fic with lwj finding wwx annoying at first and then pining so hard afterwards once he realizes wwx is his entire world. the author also changed the wwx escaping with the wens scene and OH MY GOD THEIR VERSION *chef’s kiss*. READ IT !

silhouettes to steal this night by moonsteps

[teen and up, lan wangji/wei wuxian, 51k, complete]

MODERN WANGXIAN AS ASSASSINS/HITMEN AND ROOMMATES. WHAT MORE DO I NEED TO SAY. guys, they just flirt every time they’re assigned to the same hit i am literally crying. top tier fic as expected from moonsteps (read the rest of their works you won’t regret it at all).

so you’ve been robbed by a museum by yukla

[mature, lan wangji/wei wuxian, 5k, complete]

immortal cultivators wangxian in the modern world !! to summarize, wangxian somehow does *not* get their shit together in the ancient times and pine all the way into the 21st century until lwj sees an entire section of paintings of himself hanging in the museum... you can guess whose yearning-induced artistic creations those are ;)

soft-hearted by @sarah-yyy

[general, lan wanji/wei wuxian, 6k, complete]

are you wondering what happens if child lwj found child wwx in the streets and brought him back to gusu with him? this. this is what happens: SOFTNESS, FLUFF, AND WWX CALLING GEGE. i literally didn’t know how much i need childhood friends to lovers wangxian until i read this and every time wwx called lwj gege? hello? i was pretty sure i was going to burst into flames if i kept screaming. also, read the author’s wangxian rebuttable presumption verse on their page bc it’s absolutely genius oh my god i’m never going to shut up about the rp verse

take yourself home by ribena

[mature, lan wangji/wei wuxian, 26k, complete]

okay, this one is HEAVY. like you would seriously just want to wrap wwx in a blanket and feed him soup kind of heavy. to summarize, radio host lwj keeping plant dad wwx company with his voice and then himself once he moves into the same apartment as wwx. honestly, this one hits home for me, it will definitely make you sob but the ending is so hopeful and i need a sequel of just plant dads wangxian being domestic

tame by rikke

[mature, lan wangji/wei wuxian, 11k, complete]

IMAGINE IF LWJ DID NOT LEAVE WWX AFTER THE XUANWU CAVE. just imagine oh my god, maybe they would’ve gotten their feelings resolved faster... or hatched a baby xuanwu, and wait what? yes, you read right. this fic is about xuanwu dads wangxian in yunmeng, it’s fluffy and funny and just a perfect lighthearted read if you’re having a bad day

The Fire Lapping Up the Creek by notevenyou

[explicit, lan wangji/wei wuxian, 66k, complete]

in which wwx travels to lanling alone for jin ling’s one month celebration and gets heavily injured, cue in very heavy hurt/comfort. warning, there’s major illness and surgery in this fic. so basically, lwj stays in the burial mounds to guard wwx and the wens while wwx recovers from his injury. LISTEN, burial mounds husbands wangxian and heavy hurt/comfort, what more do you need. go read it

The Lotus Defense Society by mondengel

[teen and up, lan wangji/wei wuxian, jiang yanli/jin zixuan, 3k, complete, only available for registered users of ao3]

i have lost count of how many times i’ve read this one, i love it so much. lwj and jzx bond over their mutual pining for wwx and jyl and accidentally starts a cult with nhs to prevent unsuitable people from courting them. where do i even begin with this fic, it’s literally so amazing !! very crack-y, my favourite line is “Young Master Jin! It’s Lan Wangji! He’s enacting Phoenix Mountain Part 2!” and then what happens after is my favourite scene

the secret ingredient by queen_gee

[teen and up, lan wangji/wei wuxian, 8k, complete]

WWX BAKING FOR LWJ WHO HAS A SWEET TOOTH OH MY GOD I AM SOBBING. modern college/university wangxian with lots of pining and baking, i am literally banging my head against a table this is the sweetest fic, but they’re also idiots in love so there’s some light angst but you’ll literally melt at the ending !!

The Trials and Tribulations of a Modern Father by Bgtea

[teen and up, lan xichen/jiang wanyin, lan wangji/wei wuxian, 24k, complete]

written in jiang fengmian’s pov where jfm realizes jiang cheng attracts a lot of attention from... old men. cue in lan xichen and his charming smile and this spells trouble to jfm so he enlists wwx’s help in operation protect jiang cheng. endgame xicheng with side pairing wangxian, this is absolutely cute and very humorous

with you, I am home by tellthemstories

[mature, lan wangji/wei wuxian, 47k, complete]

MODERN CULTIVATORS WANGXIAN DECIDE TO FAKE DATE *SCREAMS*. slow burn (but not if you read it fast enough), the way they are so domestic in this one oh my god, a LOT of oblivious wwx, and lwj meeting the family. i’m a sucker for fake dating fics and this one is just SO right. i’m urging everyone to read it for self-care

IwaOi Fanfiction Masterlist with 90+ Works

Hello! In celebration accumulating over 290 bookmarks on my AO3 account featuring IwaOi, Haikyuu S4 part 2, and @haikyuuweek2020 (Day 7 - Free Choice), I decided to create a masterlist of all of my favorite Iwaoi fics in order to keep myself organized as well as contributing to more traffic for those works! Works are split up into genres such as alternate universe (either not childhood friends or set on Earth), angst, canon compliant (post timeskip with spoilers), canon divergent (childhood friends but divergent timeline post timeskip), high school, and university au

Formatting update: Jan 13, 2021 (spacing is wonky on the mobile app!).

Fic update: Jan 7, 2021

This is incomplete as I got distracted while re-reading a lot of these and have only gone through half of my bookmarks, but feel free to check my own page here for the rest of them! I really do hope you guys enjoy reading these and leave comments and kudos! Please reblog and like so more people can enjoy

Titles marked with (♡) are my absolute favorites and there’s a chance I cried while reading them but otherwise they’re in alphabetical order

Word count: 65k

Summary: “Father only loves that which he owns, and I am the one thing that can never truly be his.” Royalty AU

Built a Temple in Me

Word count: 55k

Summary: Up the mossy mountain steps, past the komainu guardians and the faded red gate, and beyond the boundaries of the green shrine—that’s where the forest and the spirit world within it lies. That’s were Hajime met him, and where their story began.But intertwining of destinies can be ugly business, Hajime finds, when their first meeting begins with blood and the too-human eyes of a beast. God Oikawa AU

Quote: It fills his heart anyway, heals the hole in his chest that had been bleeding since he cut Tooru so forcibly from him.

Summary: Clearly Iwaizumi had a checkered past. Kyoutani has never asked about it, nor has Iwaizumi ever brought it up. He knows it’s a sore spot for his mentor, just like the gorgeous Monte Carlo he keeps hidden away is, so he leaves it alone.

Space

Word count: 44k

Mr. Popular

A/N: First ever Kuroo fic, let’s go!! I was so excited to write for this boy.

Warnings: Drinking, unprotected sex (wrap it up guys!!), hair pulling, cursing, smut.

Words: 2K (whew, this bitch was almost 3K lmao).

Tagged: @myherowritings @myboringadultlife8 @settersandsmaus @uncle-sev @lordexplosionsextra

Tetsuro Kuroo has always been popular, even when he was in Nekoma High. Even though he was harmless, you always found yourself unable to talk around him, his hazel eyes staring down at you in amusement whenever you would try to talk to him about an upcoming project you guys had in a class together or just asking him where his next game would be. As much as you loved being around him and couldn’t deny the obvious crush that you had on him, your friends-and everyone else at Nekoma had warned you to not chase after him. Kuroo was a player-both on and off the court. He had girls wrapped around his finger, and he knew it too. You knew that developing feelings for Kuroo wasn’t the best idea, so you would try to distance yourself the best way you could when you realized how your heart would race at the way he looked at you, your breath catching in your throat at the way that his hand would accidentally brush against yours whenever you guys would go over homework together.

You would always make a habit of going to his games though to cheer him on, nothing wrong in doing that, right? You were good friends with the other boys anyway, so it’s not like Kuroo was the only reason you would go. You wanted to be a good friend and cheer on your friends, too. Even though you couldn’t help but picture Kuroo wrapping you up in his arms and spinning you around in a victory spin after the boys had won every time. But that was wishful thinking.

You would try to ignore the pain that shot through your heart like a bullet whenever girls would talk about their night spent with the captain. Normally that would end with you sitting in class trying to cover up your face as your tears freely fell from your face as Kenma and Yamamoto tried their best to cheer you up from ‘whatever’ you were sad about since you didn’t want to talk about it. Luckily, when graduation came around, you had hope that you would never have to see Testuro Kuroo again, your feelings would finally go away. Right?

“(Y/N)? (Y/N) (L/N)?” you heard a familiar voice call out to you and you felt shivers run down your spine as you turned around to see Kuroo walking towards you, hands shoved in his pockets as a smile formed on his face. “I didn’t think you’d be going to this university,” He said, his eyes staring intently at you.

“Oh uh.. Yeah they have a really good program for what I’m going into, a-actually.” You said, cursing yourself at the fact that you still had trouble speaking around him. You swore you saw his mouth twitch up slightly and his eyes shine with a hint of amusement that you were familiar with from high school.

“Oh really? That’s awesome! They have an amazing volleyball team here so I as well as some of the others decided to join.” Kuroo explained and right on cue, Yamamoto rushed up to him with Kenma typing away at his phone in tow.

“Dude! Are we still having that party tonight? Please say yes, I already told these two hotties they could come,” Yamamoto said before noticing you and his face lit up. “(Y/N)!! Oh man, it’s so good to see you babygirl,” Yamamoto said as he came over to give you a hug and you swore you saw Kuroo bristle at the old nickname that Yamamoto called you.

“Taketora! I’m so happy to see you!” You giggled as Yamamoto gave you a big hug.

“Of course you are! I’m the best. You’re coming to the party tonight, right? I know we literally just started here at the university, but we’ve all already been accepted into a fraternity and apparently to celebrate they throw a party. We can invite anyone,” Yamamoto grinned and you heard Kuroo speak up.

“You should come, (Y/N). It’ll be fun.” He said and you thought you heard a twinge of hope in his voice.

“Hmm, alright. I’ll come then,” you responded and Yamamoto fist pumped the air while Kuroo just rolled his eyes at the dumbass. Kenma took Yamamoto by the collar and started to drag him off, much to the protest of the hot-headed boy.

You stared in the mirror at your outfit, smoothing over the small wrinkles as you finally decided that this was the best thing to wear before heading to the fraternity house that was lit up with colorful lights from inside, the bass booming could be heard from blocks away. Before you could knock on the door, it flew open to reveal Yamamoto with a tie wrapped around his head, his button up shirt opened to show off his abs and he had a drink in his hand.

“(Y/N)! You made it!” He said and you noticed that his words were slurred slightly. “Hey Kuroo!! The girl you’ve liked so much since high school is her-.” Yamamoto was cut off by a hand covering his mouth and you looked up to see it belonged to Kuroo. You raised an eyebrow at him and he rubbed at the back of his neck nervously before pulling Yamamoto back in the house with the hand around the drunk frat’s mouth.

“Come on in.” Kuroo said, kicking the door shut after you walked inside before he let Yamamoto go. He pushed him off into a crowd and focused his attention back on you, causing your stomach to twist in knots. “You want a drink?” He asked and you nodded, following him into the kitchen so he could fix you something.

“I’ll take whatever you have, I’m not picky.” You said and Kuroo nodded before he handed you a beer to which you happily took a swig of.

“So how have you been? I haven’t seen you since graduation,” Kuroo said as he leaned back against the wall, his attention fully on you as you took another drink of the alcohol. You were grateful to have something calming your nerves from your old crush that you weren’t exactly sure you were over at the moment. You were about to answer him when the kitchen island was suddenly cleared and one of the other frat boys held up bottles of tequila while people started cheering.

“Ah hell yeah! It’s time for body shots!” Yamamoto said as he slung an arm around you, your head tilting slightly as you looked up at him.

“Body shots?” You asked and Yamamoto smirked.

“You’ve never done them? I’d be happy to show you how they work.” He started but you felt as Kuroo grabbed your hand and pulled you with him over to the island, your heart racing when Kuroo’s hands grabbed your hips as he set you down on the hard marble surface. You watched as he grabbed the bottle of tequila, taking a lime before explaining that you had to keep it in your mouth.

“Just trust me,” he said before pouring a line of salt on your jaw bone as he raised your shirt slightly and your heat flushed at the way his fingers brushed against your skin. You felt as he poured a shot of tequila on your stomach before setting the bottle down, and you bit down at the lime when you felt his tongue lick against your skin, his mouth sucking up the liquid from your stomach and you prayed he couldn’t hear you let out the whimper you did when his tongue licked the line of salt off your jaw bone. He was careful to take the lime from your mouth with his own and you felt a heat pool between your legs as you watched the lime juice roll down his chin, wishing you could lick it off. His hazel eyes met yours as he removed the lime, tossing it aside before he started to take his shirt off and you let out a yelp.

“W-what are you doing?” You asked him as you tried hard to focus on his face and not the happy trail that disappeared into his jeans.

“Only fair if you do it back, right?” He asked and you could only nod as he helped you down the island, hoping that he couldn’t tell how hot your skin was as he got on the counter instead. He laid down, putting the lime in his mouth as you poured the tequila over his abs and salt on his chest. You tried your best to control your breathing as you licked at the alcohol, watching as Kuroo’s hand came into view like he was about to grab your hair but stopped when he realized you guys were in public. You licked the salt from his chest and carefully took the lime from his mouth, the effects of the alcohol and doing such an intimate thing making your head fuzzy. The next thing you knew, Kuroo had taken your hand and dragged you upstairs into his room, shutting the door before he pressed you against it, his hands on either side of your head.

You felt your face heat up again when you realized that he never put his shirt back on.

“Sorry, I just really wanted to be alone with you after that. If that’s okay of course,” Kuroo said, and you noticed how close he was to you, his stomach touching yours from your shirt still being pulled up from earlier.

“Y-yeah that’s fine,” you said and Kuroo chuckled.

“Do I make you nervous? You’re cute when you’re nervous around me.” Kuroo said, his hazel eyes dark with lust and you swear your heart was beating out of your chest. Could he hear how loud it was?

“Kuroo…” you started and Kuroo held your chin, his fingers grazing your skin softly as he leaned in, his lips meeting yours in a passionate kiss. Even though he had tequila and whatever other alcohol else, he still tasted sweet to you as he pressed closer into you. His hands gripped at your hips, slightly tugging and you jumped, wrapping your legs around his waist as he pressed you into the door as he held you up. His lips met your neck and you moaned when he bit down at the skin slightly, his tongue coming out to soothe the inflamed mark as his hips rutted into you. You gasped when you felt his hard on press into you, whimpering when he cursed under his breath before leading you over to the bed.

He gently set you down before unbuttoning your pants, shimmying them off of you before focusing on your now soaked lacey underwear.

“Shit baby, you’re already so wet.” Kuroo said smugly and you tried to hide your face from embarrassment as he removed your underwear. You felt as his hands came up and removed your own, tsking at you. “None of that, I want you to watch as I devour this pussy.”

His tongue was on you in an instant, plunging deep into your tight hole as you let out a moan from the pleasure flooding through you. His tongue came up to lap circles around your clit as his fingers dived in your entrance, curling slightly to make you arch your back off the bed. His tongue worked faster, desperate to make you reach your orgasm as his fingers worked their magic inside of you. You moaned as you gripped at the sheets, fucking yourself on Kuroo’s fingers as you felt your orgasm wash over you. You heard the sounds of Kuroo lewdly sucking and lapping up your juices and you swore you could’ve come right then again.

Kuroo quickly made work of removing his jeans and underwear and you felt a heat in the pit of your stomach at the length and girth of his member. He was packing and proud of it. He started to pump himself slowly, his head lolling to the side as he observed you.

“Are you ready for my cock, baby girl?” He asked and you nodded.

“Beg.”

“Please Kuroo, I need your cock. Please, please fuck me.” You said, a whimper in your voice. You gasped when you felt Kuroo line himself up with you before he thrusted inside, a groan escaping his mouth as he did so.

“Fuck (Y/N). You feel so fucking good,” He said as he started moving, his hips moving against yours in perfect rhythm. He placed your legs against his shoulders as he started thrusting into you, causing moans to escape your mouth as his cock dragged along your walls. He kept this pace for a bit before moving closer to you, wrapping your legs around his waist as he angled himself to hit against your g-spot. “I’m going to fuck you so hard, you won’t be able to walk for a week.” Kuroo said through clenched teeth as he moved faster against you, his hips slamming into yours.

“K-Kuroo, fuck.” You whimpered out, your hands resting in his raven black hair. You moved your hips against him, skin slapping against skin as you felt yourself close to yet another orgasm.

“Are you about to cum? Yeah, I want you to fucking cum all over this cock. I want you to scream my fucking name, (Y/N).” Kuroo said as he pulled at your hair, causing you to let out another moan as you clenched around his cock.

“Kuroo!” You yelled out as you came, feeling as Kuroo’s dick twitched.

“Fuck (Y/N), I’m fixing to-.” Kuroo said as a groan left his lips, his hot cum shooting out to paint your walls white as some leaked onto the bed. He slowly pulled out of you before pulling you close to him.

“So you’ve really liked me since high school?” You asked him as he ran his fingers through your hair.

“Yeah, I was just really nervous around you. You were different from the other girls and I really liked you a lot.” Kuroo admitted and your heart warmed at Kuroo’s words.

“You’re cute when you’re nervous.”
