FIC REC “FRIDAY” - combo edition. I’ve been tagged (twice now) by @xthelastknownsurvivorx & once by @cha-melodius for this share. Thank you. I’m behind. My apologies. It’s finals week. It’s not Friday. I’m sorry. I’m traveling and I don’t know what day it is. Also that made me miss the Wordle & stop my winning streak at 128 and I’m kind of upset rn.

Tagging @welcometololaland for the master list.

So now it’s TWO THEMES - the fic that makes you laugh or smile whenever you think of it & the fic that lives in your mind rent free.

THEME ONE: funny/smile:

RWRB. This fic is outrageous in all the best ways: a college au, it’s hilarious, hot, memorable, 0-60. Henry is goaded into being filmed while trying to squash a watermelon between his THIGHS and Alex is out of his mind before/during/after. It’s FULL-CONTACT, written by one of my loves, @clottedcreamfudge All I can say, readers, is you’re welcome. 🍉

I would add here that @stutteringpeach ‘s WELL, WE’RE NOT HERE TO FUCK DUCKS aka fuck study (already tagged by @xthelastknownsurvivorx ) is also on my giggle-fest list. 🦆

THEME TWO: fics that live in my mind rent-free.

BUCKLE UP. This is really hard, because several do live in my mind ALL THE TIME. I’m going to add some favorites by my favorites, but I first have to say that @rmd-writes’ TO THE VICTOR THE SPOILS & its prequel, WHAT, LIKE IT’S HARD? are definitely on this list but @cha-melodius already tagged it. They are genius and I do love me a good lawyer au. Below are all RWRB but one, but it’s RWRB-infused, so.

@clottedcreamfudge I could say A SPORTING CHANCE, which you know I adore, but I’m going to say NEVER DID RUN SMOOTH, because I’m obsessed with how the love story plays out in this reality dating show romp & the title is a line from my favorite Shakespeare play, A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM. 🌴

YOUNG ROYALS (w/RWRB crossover) fic by my sweet love @the-amber-fox This prince/rock star/Sweden/US epic au is lovely and fun and just a great way to showcase Wilmon’s love story. PERFECT CRIMES OF THE HEART. 👑

My IG bestie @cinnamoncoffees has written YR & RWRB fics (some FOR me & others I’ve helped with), but this one is sooo good. I think it’s her best. It’s a vampire au and I don’t particularly like vampires necessarily but it is soooo good. Did I mention how good it is? 😋 A SLIGHTLY HYSTERICAL VAMPIRE FANTASY MOMENT. 🧛🏼‍♂️

RWRB fic: you may know my lovey @cheesecurdsgravyandfries as the writer of extremely hot, explicit RWRB & SCHITTS CREEK fics, but did you also know she is hilarious and sweet? I don’t completely know why, but I’ll never forget this adorable and clever stripper au told from Henry’s dog’s perspective. THE GOODEST BOY, HIS HENRY, AND THE OTHER GUY. 🥹 (Fun fact: this is the only G rated fic in my list.) 😏

RWRB+: I’ve got lots more RWRB favorites, but this list of fics-that-live-rent-free-in-my-mind would be incomplete without @everwitch-magiks’ HASHTAG SOULMATES. This beauty is a fan fic must-read. It combines the best of rwrb’s contemporary lgbtq fiction and all the romance tropes. Genius. 🪐

Tagging @cheesecurdsgravyandfries @the-amber-fox @cinnamoncoffees @clottedcreamfudge @everwitch-magiks @stutteringpeach @rmd-writes ONLY IF YOU WANT TO. And anyone else. This was fun but it took a while. Also, please tag @welcometololaland, who’s evidently keeping a list.

Happy Friday! This rec list is lengthy, kinky, and explicit. I'll have an additional list up soon, but this one is dedicated to some excellent E-rated gems.

Please remember to mind the tags - especially for these recs! - and kindly skip anything that doesn't suit you.

If you enjoy these, make sure to leave kudos and check out the authors additional works. Fic links and summaries below the cut.

in the dead of night | @littlemisskittentoes | E | 3.8k

“Hm, am I still dreaming, or is there a very pretty boy playing with me under the covers?” Alex’s voice is gruff. Its edges are coated in lingering sleep, and the drowsy-slow pull of the words slows them to a deeper accent than he usually lets slip through. The syrupy drawl skitters the length of Henry’s spine.

or, Henry knows he can always rely on Alex to tire him out when sleep is far off.

If We're Caught in a Wave (I Will Carry You Over) | @sparklepocalypse | E | 5.9k

There it is, up ahead – the small island just offshore, with Alex’s favorite broad, flat stone outcropping, perfect for sunning himself in seclusion. He splashes into the shallows and dives in when the water’s up to his knees, and it’s a matter of maybe a minute’s swim to reach the island. Alex finds his footing among the sand and pebbles, pulls himself upright, and shakes the water out of his hair, then pushes it back from his face. He can practically hear the outcropping calling to him -- you know, if inanimate rock could speak.

Alex stretches, his mid-back satisfyingly popping, and then skirts his way between some larger rocks until his sunning rock is in view. Except – there’s someone already on the outcropping, their short blond hair shimmering in the sunshine, the upper slant of their shoulders visible from where Alex is standing.

(Movie or Bookverse AU; Alex rents a remote beach house and Henry is a cecaelia.)

What I Need Tonight | @sparklepocalypse (again, always, etc.) | E | 3.5k

It’s two in the morning on a Tuesday when the clatter of something hitting the bathroom floor startles Henry awake. At first, his groggy mind assumes it’s Alex – but then Alex snuffles in his sleep behind him and tightens his arms around Henry’s waist.

There’s another clatter, and then a shuffling noise, and Henry’s eyes widen. He reaches back and grabs Alex’s thigh, shaking him.

(A temporal folding M/M/M AU that takes place post-canon but pre-bonus chapter.)

It's Called Tact, Fuck-Rag! | largepeachicedtea | E | 12.8k

Texas had been an odd choice, some might say. Henry thinks it's perfect. College is a time to go crazy, after all. A Scream AU

when he walks in (i am loved) | @kill8a | E | 10.3k

Henry has chores. They’re chores he’s allocated to himself, ones he loves to do in his free time, when he’s home alone. But he can’t keep thinking about Alex, what he did to him this morning, and it proves to be a distraction.

or, henry gets well fucked and well loved.

[ My final rec is for the four-part series please, please have me by @everwitch-magiks; the total word count is 29.7k. I really love the summaries for each installment, so I've included 'em all.]

Hope and Glory | E | 3.5k

Any moment now, that door will open again and another man will enter, another stranger will bare himself and quietly slot himself into the hole in the wooden panel. And Henry will swallow him down, willingly, greedily. He will use his mouth and his tongue and both of his hands, and he will lose himself in every little sound, every low groan and trembling whimper, every sharp intake of breath. He will bring the stranger to the brink and then over it, will smile faintly as feels the man pulsing in between his hands, will brush a chaste kiss against the tip before he lets go.

Henry joins an exclusive, members only sex club and lives out an impossible fantasy. Along the way, he forms a connection with an enigmatic lover.

Everything I Never Thought I'd Ever Find | E | 5.3k

The man is rubbing his length alongside Alex's as promised, his breathing heavy as Alex engages him in a series of wild, open-mouthed kisses, all teeth and tongue, give and take. Alex is shaking with want as he struggles to keep his arms still, to keep kissing, to keep himself from losing control entirely, to be good. God, he wants to be good.

Alex had never dared to hope that his sexual escapades with an irresistible stranger could turn into so much more.

That Look In Your Eyes | E | 4.7k

They’re trying something new. It’s a bit of an indulgence on Henry’s part. Earlier that night, he had walked into the now familiar room to find Alex as utterly irresistible as always: naked and blindfolded and so impossibly willing, so wonderfully eager. In that exact moment, Henry had decided that it was time for something a little bit different.

One brief but intriguing conversation later, Henry had been very pleased to pull the silk scarf from his own neck. Clearly, they'd just found a better use for it.

When The Time Is Right | E | 16.1k

“Maybe I could challenge you more,” Henry suggests, his eyes carefully trained on Alex. “And hold you accountable for longer. How does that sound?” “That sounds fucking amazing,” Alex tells him, the words coming out in a rush. “Yes. That. Please.” “Alright, then.” Henry offers him a sly grin. “Alex, love. You just gave me a wonderful idea.” It’s really something, how quickly Alex’s heartbeat picks up. “Oh? Do tell.” Henry’s grin widens. He looks alarmingly pleased with himself. “How would you feel about a staycation?”

When Alex asks Henry for something a little more intense in the bedroom, they end up taking more than just their sex life to the next level.

I've got another post in the works with some longer fics that are a mixture of all types of themes, ratings, and so on.

Feel free to request fic recs anytime!

XOXO,

Amy | NoCoastPosts

Hiya!

Just wanted to recommend a few fanfics regarding Jason Todd and Tim Drake being brothers

1. Your Hands are To Loud by BatFamily_shenanigans: Tim runs away from the manor after the Bat family finds out he’s autistic and Jason basically finds Tim and reassures him it’s okay-it’s really cute and sweet how Jason reassures him

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/42591321/chapters/106984149

2. Have We Met Before? By Lulu_Rythmea/ @lulurythmea (tumblr): Both Jason and Tim get deaged and of course both of them are very protective of each other as they get approached by a few bat members-it’s honestly adorable!

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/40657506

3. Soft Robin, sleepy Robin, little ball of trauma by iselsis/ @iselsis (tumblr): Jason comes upon Alfred’s request to help Tim get some sleep

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/33461107

4. Surprise by Racoonwriter: Jason is keeping Tim out of the manor for a surprise party but Tim mistakens this for something else.

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/42055062

5. Patty Cake, Patty Cake, My Brother Ran Away by That_Hippie_Chick: Tim hasn’t come back home yet and Jason stress bakes wondering where Tim went

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/45271177

This is one HECK of a fic list for all the Batman/Batfam fans out there. It has everything from angst to alternate universes and everything in between! Thanks so much for pulling it together and sending it in!

potential(? NSFW

ok so not sure if this needed a warning but what about Y/N casually meeting Dalton's dad (josh) and she thinks he's hot 😭

sorry if this is weird you don't have to write it

This is actually kind of funny 😭 (also for this let’s pretend Chris and Dalton are still roommates and Y/N became friends with them after the whole thing happened)

So maybe Josh was visiting Dalton one day, they hadn’t seen each other as much so he thought it would be a good idea to drive to campus and have a nice father-and-son day in town.

They did a bunch of things and Josh was happy everything went back to normal between them, after the whole incident and not being that close. But things seemed to be working out just fine now.

Later that day Josh dropped him off, and he decided to walk him to his dorm to have a little more time to talk with him, knowing that as soon as he left Dalton would barely phone him or reply to his texts.

“Thanks for coming all the way here” Dalton said as he opened the door.

“Yeah, no problem. We had a fantastic time” Josh entered the dorm following Dalton.

Y/N and Chris immediately looked up. They were both lying on Chris’ bed watching dumb videos online, but as soon as Y/N saw them she sat up and quickly tried to fix her hair.

“Oh, uh- Dad, this is Y/N” Dalton walked towards his desk to put his belongings down “And you already know Chris”

“Hi, nice to meet you” Y/N said right away, offering her hand for a handshake.

“Hi, I’m Josh” He shook her hand and gave her a friendly smile, repeating the gesture once he turned to face Chris “Hi Chris”

“Good to see you again, father of Dalton”

“Please, call me Josh”

Dalton was paying attention to the look on his friends’ face, his eyes widening as soon as he realised “So I guess it’s getting latte” He hoped into the conversation “I wouldn’t want mum to get worried”

“Yeah” Josh replied looking at his watch “I’ll get going” He approached Dalton to give him one last hug, and he immediately hugged him back.

“Call me when you get home, yeah?”

“I will. Bye, see ya next time” Josh waved everyone goodbye and left the dorm. The three friends stared at the door for a moment, until all of the sudden Y/N decided to break the silence.

“Oh wow”

“See? I told you!” Chris exclaimed, a little too excited for Dalton’s liking. “Are you serious?”

“What?” Y/N asked, she definitely didn't think they were being that obvious.

“Guys, I’m right here”

“Don’t worry Dalton, it's not like we'll ever talk to your dad” Chris stood up and rested her hands on his shoulders “Unless, you know…”

“Stop” Dalton said, shaking his head and removing Chris’s hands.

“If anything you should take it as a compliment” Y/N followed Chris and stood next to her “I see where you got your good genetics”

Dalton blushed immediately, but they could never know that, so instead of acting shy he rolled his eyes at Y/N and fell on his bed, dramatically letting out a loud breath as he covered his face with a pillow “Please don’t talk about my dad”

"We don't" Y/N defended themselves.

"I'm pretty sure I heard Chris say 'I told you' or something like that"

"Fine, we'll stop" Y/N took the pillow and raised her pinky in front of him "We promise"

"Whatever" He said, rolling on his bed to face the wall.

Y/N and Chris looked at each other, mouthing ‘He was hot’ at the same time causing them to laugh. Dalton just rolled his eyes again and made a mental note to never bring his dad back to his dorm.

fic rec friday: Confidential Memorandum by @sherryvalli T+ | 17k

+

"Hello, can I speak to Mr. Fox-Mount-krishen, please?"

Alex blinked. After two weeks of hearing nothing but the voices of snooty men and frazzled secretaries calling in, the person on the other line now sounded decidedly neither snooty nor male nor in any way adult.

It was a little girl.

"Mr. Fox-Mountchristen's unfortunately in a meeting right now,” Alex began slowly, “but I could take a message?"

"Oh." The girl paused. "You're not Mr. Hunter."

-

[Alex starts a new job as Henry's new assistant. Henry's daughter keeps calling the office and leaving him messages.]

+

adored this so so much and smiled the entire way through!! will definitely be coming back to this one for sure ;D

happy friday and happy reading y'all! <3

Fuck-It Friday

Tagged by @watchyourbuck @theotherbuckley @lover-of-mine @wikiangela @spotsandsocks @hippolotamus @devirnis @buddierights @cal-daisies-and-briars @daffi-990 @tizniz and @disasterbuckdiaz You all so awesome! Thank you!

Getting to this kind of late because I have been catching up on a lot of online class work today. But I'm all finished for the day and it is still Friday where I live. So here is a very short snippet from NFL Buck, continuing a bit from my WIP Wednesday post. (All things NFL Buck). Enjoy the sadness?

"How long does he have?" Buck asks. Eddie swipes his thumb across his partner's knuckles, soothing himself and Buck. "Less than 6 months." he murmurs. More tears flood into those ocean blue eyes, "Fuck. Fuck that's no time at all." Evan rips his hand away, pushes to his feet and begins to pace the expansive living room, "Damnit. We need to be there, sooner than later, but I don't have off days for almost two weeks. Can you even ask for more time off?" The question seems to be directed towards Eddie, but Buck is ranting and rambling more to himself. Eddie doesn't answer, just watches the distraught man walk around the room, trying to find a way to fix everything. Cause that's what Buck does. Try to fix things, its an aspect that makes him a great quarterback. With Red's diagnosis and being in the height of the NFL season, there wasn't anything that can be fixed. Eventually Buck would come to same conclusion, he just needed the time to process and understand. Eddie just needed to patient, be there for when Buck accepts this isn't something he can fix, and help prepare them both for what is to come with Red.

Um...sorry? Buck can't fix everything, we all know that, but that doesn't mean he won't try and Eddie will be patient as always. Hope you all enjoyed!

RQ Week 2 Flash Fic Friday

... a scene taken from a series of scenes for a fic I wil probably never write.... Bonswa my loves, I have returned (: @nortaeventcouncil. For RQ flash fic fridays (prompt 1 secrets)

“Would you have given them to me?”

Mare glanced up at him with wary eyes, hearing the way his voice betrayed the nonchalance with which he asked his question. Somehow, she knew he would ask her at some point. It had really just been a matter of when for weeks now. Being at the cabin always seemed to loosen lips, and now was no different. The last thing she wants to do was open this can with him though. She had already suffered his presence from the moment it arrived, and all she wanted to do was stay in the tranquility of this moment for as long as she could.

“Given you what?”

His cheek twitched at her avoidance, but his eyes softened at the edges. Glancing away, he stared out the frosted window at the viciously falling snow. On the back of the plush chair, his fingers curled into claws on the blanket draped there. The storm had come violently midday and had stayed well into the night. Travel was impossible, leaving was impossible. She felt like a fish trapped in a tank with a shark.

“Would you have… given me children?”

Mare’s hand stilled on Coriane’s curls, and she had to forcibly keep herself from possessively wrapping an arm around her to pull her closer. The question wasn’t directed at Coriane at all, but something about the idea of it made Mare’s hackles rise. He hadn’t made any overt threats toward Coriane yet, at least none that Mare knew of. Maybe her threat had worked that first night, or maybe he had been telling the truth when he told he that he had nothing against her daughter. Given the past, the former had to be true.

Slowly she returned to stroking Coriane’s damp hair, and considered her as she did so. Fresh from a warm bath, she dozed peacefully. The firelight bathed her in orange and red; the perfect colors for her palette. For half a second, she imagined her with different features, the more angular ones that used to haunt every one of Mare’s nightmares. She imagined her with blue eyes instead of mellow amber. Something in her stomach clenched tightly at the fact that she could not picture her daughter laughing with those blue eyes. She swallowed subtly before saying the only thing she could.

“They never would have been ours. They would have been your mother’s.”

His exhales whistles through his teeth, telling her she hit the nerve that has always made him curl in on himself.

“That’s not true.”

“Look at me and say that. Look at me and tell me that you really think I would have been allowed to raise them, that she would have let me.” She stared him down across the space, her hand stilling on Coraine’s head again before slowly guiding her closer. She wouldn’t be able to fit in her lap much longer, but it was the only way Mare felt like she could keep her close right this second.

He raised his chin at her, those icy blue eyes practically glowing in the low light of the dying fire. His cheek twitched again, and he curled his fingers into a tighter ball on the blanket.

“I would have made her stay away from them.”

Mare couldn’t help but laugh. The movement and sound made Coriane shift, and curl tighter against her. Cutting the sound off harshly to avoid waking her, Mare shook her head in exasperation. The least he could have done was say something believable. “You would have tried,” she admitted quietly, when Coriane had sighed and relaxed again. “And you would have failed.”

His entire being went still as stone, and Mare felt the undulating waves of heat he tried to contain wash over her as softly as the waves on the lake shore. She watched him tear his eyes away from her, and gnaw on the inside of his cheek for a moment. The odd kinetic stillness she remembered settled over him as he began to tap a finger against his knee. Slowly he molded himself back into the blasé image he had been maintaining up until this conversation.

“You think I wouldn’t have loved them.”

There wasn’t a hint of a question in his words, and Mare pursed her lips at the accusation. A part of her wanted to keep twisting the knife deeper, to inflict the pain she had always been able to with him. The other part, the one that had grown out of the bitter, resentful girl she had been stayed the blow, and ultimately won out.

“I think, she wouldn’t have let you love them. Or me.” She added the last part quietly, but it still struck home like a blow.

His finger started tapping again, and even in the low light she could see the nail was bit to the quick. The others were probably no better, so she didn’t bother looking at them. Before it had been easy to just remember the man who had been on the other side of cell bars taunting her and pulling at old wounds. It had been easy to remember the manic energy in his eyes when she had chased him down in Whitefire. Potentially facing the young man he had been underneath all that made her shiver. Her eyes slowly fell, and she dropped her voice to a whisper as she said, “There are no more secrets, not anymore.”

“No more secrets.” He echoed the words mockingly under his breath before rising and slipping back into the shadows of the house. The fire popped loudly in the grate, the only residue of his emotions, while the wind howled outside and thunder rumbled faintly.

Fic Rec Friday

The rules are simple: tag the fic that made you cry / feel all the feelings and describe why it's so good. Then, tag some fellow associates to see what everyone else is reading. Make sure to tag #fic rec friday or @welcometololaland so that they can compile the masterlist and spread the love!

I HAVE to give a shout-out to The End of Me by @howtosingit. This fic wrecked me the first time I read it and silly me decided to read it again right after the episode because now it hits harder. It's so well written and beautiful and sad and hopeful. Its everything and one of my favourite fics ever 😭

It's just around the corner darlin by @strandnreyes has also made me sob recently. Another beautiful fic written by a beautiful author! Your talent is amazing 😍

I'm not sure who's done this but I'm tagging @actuallysara @tailoredshirt @thisbuildinghasfeelings @maxbegone and literally anyone else who wants to do it!

but if you could see us from a distance, you’d know i’ve always been so close to you | @anincompletelist | E | 10k

Objectively, standing half-soaked from rainwater with a stitch in his side and an uncomfortable, raging hard-on outside his worst enemy’s door is not Henry’s finest moment. It’s not even on the list.

– or, henry is afflicted with a curse-gone-wrong that stipulates that only his sworn enemy, alex claremont-diaz, can touch him.

Got a ticket for two | @clottedcreamfudge | E | 10.6k

Henry likes his apartment - he has done since the day he moved in a year ago. The light in the sitting room is gorgeous at all times of day thanks to the ceiling to floor windows which lead out onto a south-facing balcony, only just large enough for the plethora of plantlife his flatmates care for. The kitchen is always stocked with his favourite tea, everyone keeps to their allotted cupboard and fridge space, and the bathrooms are kept meticulously clean. There’s a rota for chores stuck to the fridge with magnets from Rhode Island and Minnesota, London and Milan, with everything typed up neatly so that nobody has to squint to read someone else’s awful handwriting.

His flatmates themselves? Well, they’re a little… strange.

why are you googling vampires? | @daisymae-12 | E | 13.9k

Alex isn’t really looking for love – he’s got enough on his plate with law school thanks – but when he’s approached by Henry at a bar one night, all it takes is one small, shy smile and Alex is smitten.

Or, Alex accidentally takes a hot, hungry vampire home and almost dies (not really, he’s just being a dramatic little shit)

(these last two fics are both from the series the only thing on my mind - Piercer!Alex teaches Henry about the inner workings of BDSM in mid-90s New York)

wanna know that body like it’s mine | @hypnostheory | E | 5.8k

Henry takes a fortifying breath and sticks his tongue out for Alex to look at.

“Okay good, now hold it up like this,” Alex says, holding his mouth open and sticking his tongue up against the roof of his mouth. Henry copies the motion, flinching when Alex grabs his chin and tilts his head up. He hums as he looks into Henry’s mouth, nodding to himself. “Damn, you have the perfect anatomy for a piercing.”

Henry’s not even sure if that’s a compliment, but his heart skips a beat. “Thank you.”

– After losing a bet, Henry has to get a tongue piercing. Alex, the incredibly attractive piercer, gets stuck in Henry’s head in more ways than he expected.

covered in you | @hypnostheory | E | 10.6k

Alex blinks at him, tilting his head to the side. Sometimes Alex looks at him like he’s trying to figure out some strange riddle. “Can I ask you a personal question?” Henry switches to the other boot, nodding for Alex to continue. “Do you have a thing for leather?”

Henry blinks. “Erm, no?” He finishes working the leather conditioner in, letting it set. He wipes his hands off on his microfiber cloth, resisting the urge to smell the clean pine tar of the conditioner before he does. “I mean, doesn’t everyone like how leather smells?”

Alex stares at him for a few painful seconds. “Do you just like how it smells?”

This is the first fic rec post I’ve done in years, and it’s my first one ever for the Red, White & Royal Blue fandom!

Please remember to read the tags and note the E ratings. Feel free to send me fic rec requests anytime.

Little Bird by GoldTitaniumMaiden: Story of how Damian gets deaged and how the batfam deals with it as well as developing closer bonds with Damian-There's even a scene of Damian pushing Kon away because he doesn't want him to take away Tim Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/20543951/chapters/48764933

NSFW! We’re the reader and dalton are supposed to be studying but readers like gets really horny by looking at daltons muscles

WARNING: NSFW, SMUT, +18, MINORS DNI, PLEASE KEEP SCROLLING IF YOU'RE NOT COMFORTABLE READING THIS

Y/N was sitting on his bed with a book on her lap. She had an important test coming up so she had been studying as much as her brain allowed her, but unfortunately she was getting a little frustrated.

Dalton was working on an art project, it’s a really important one and apparently he was behind. Y/N loved to see him paint, his mind so focused on what he’s working on that everything around him seemed to disappear. She admired him for a moment but this time was different, he was wearing a tank top that allowed his muscles to be free, and with each stroke they moved and flexed in a way she never noticed before. Her eyes flicked between his hands and muscles, but suddenly remembered her test.

Y/N looked at her book again, reminding herself that she needed to study, but she couldn’t focus anymore. She looked back at Dalton and admired him for a little longer, a warm feeling going down her body.

“Dalton?” She whispered, but he didn’t hear her “Dalton” She repeated louder, causing him to look at her.

He smiled at her as he met her eyes “Yeah?”

“Are you busy?” She already knew what he was gonna say, but wanted to give it a shot anyway.

“A little” He looked at his canvas again and then back at Y/N “Why? Do you need anything?” Y/N nodded and slowly left the bed “You”

Dalton’s eyes widened and a sudden neediness appeared on his system “But I’m-” He started, but drifted off when Y/N got a little too close to him.

“Mhm?” She turned his chair to make him face her and stood between his legs “Are you busy?” She repeated.

He took one last look at his unfinished project, and shook his head as he turned back to her “No”

Y/N smiled victorious as she sat on his lap. His body was completely pressed to the back of the chair and he was running his hands up and down her thighs as they shared wet and needy kisses. It was too much too quick and Y/N was constantly squeezing his muscles.

That’s when it clicked for Dalton, so he purposefully flexed as his arms went around her body. An involuntary moan left her lips. He wanted to tease her for a little while, so he started to kiss her neck and kept flexing his muscles.

“I wanna take off your shirt” She mumbled.

“Mhm. Why? So you can keep gripping at my muscles?”

She blushed but at this point she didn’t care, that’s exactly what she wanted anyway “Yes” She breathed.

He took off his shirt and tossed it somewhere in his dorm, Y/N’s following shortly after. Slowly they completely undressed each other and Dalton was blindly looking for a condom on his desk.

He finally found one and quickly pushed Y/N away a little bit to put it on. A moan of relief escaped their mouths when she sank down. The repeated motions got more desperate and rough with time, the position making it a little easier for Dalton to guide her hips.

She was repeatedly squeezing him around, from his biceps to the strong muscles on his back and he could already tell she’d be leaving marks. Eventually her hands moved to his shoulders, using them to stabilise herself as they both got closer.

Dalton came first, the puffs of air leaving his mouth as he tried to breathe properly as his shaky legs kept thrusting Y/N, the sounds of his pretty moans making her body finally give in and joing him.

Happy Fic Rec Friday, folks! In this post you'll find a list of five of my favorite (emotional) hurt/comfort fics. Today's recs are all Red, White & Royal Blue!

Under the jump to spare your scrolling finger if you don't wanna look at recs today!

Even if It's Just Pretend by @nontoxic-writes [Alex/Henry, bookverse AU | Rated E | 55.8k words] Henry and Alex don't get back together after Henry flees the continent from the lake house. After the email leak, Queen Mary insists they pretend they never broke up and tour the Commonwealth in an insane PR move.

all that glitters (is not gold) by @indomitable-love [Alex/Henry, bookverse AU | Rated E | 111.7k words] An exploration of Alex's mental health in the aftermath of the email leak and the election.

Lost In Your Current (wreck my plans) by Bri_Cheese [Alex/Henry, AU | Rated E | 83.4k words] Quadriplegic Henry hires sex-worker Alex. This is the first RWRB fic that made me ugly cry. You should read it, but mind the tags.

ocean waves. by seafloor [Alex/Henry | Rated E | 10.8k words] Henry Fox wakes up with a toothache one morning, and has a lot of feelings about certain things for days afterwards. Mind the tags.

praying our bridges don't make waves by @anincompletelist [Alex/Henry, soulmate AU | Rated E | 82.1k words] This one is a double whammy of emotional hurt/comfort (Alex and Henry) and physical hurt/comfort (June). In this soulmatiest of soulmate AUs, June gets sick and Alex goes to great lengths to get her medical care -- including faking a soul bond in a universe where that's highly illegal.

Bonus: one hurt-no-comfort for if you need a cry today:

The Rope by @hgejfmw-hgejhsf [Alex/Henry, movieverse gapfiller | Rated T | 1.1k words] This is a gapfiller that takes place directly after the scene in the movie when Henry yeets himself off the float at the lake house. It's the first of Val's fics that I read, and it makes me ugly cry. You have been warned.

fic rec friday: Going Platinum by @cricketnationrise

E | 20k

a Camboy!Alex AU

Henry is going to expire and it’s all Pez’s fault. Pez, their insistence on vodka shots during PowerPoint night in their first year of uni, and a presentation about ethical porn. Henry would eviscerate them, but in the back of his mind he suspects he owes Pez rather a lot for introducing him to the concept of camboys in the first place. He had been perfectly content with the occasional hookup and getting himself off to fantasies of toned arses and lush lips the rest of the time. Henry had never really gotten the point of porn – why slog through mediocre, mostly heterosexual couples when his imagination was more than up to the task? Camboys, though – camboys were a whole other kettle of fish.
