  1. Summary

    Thomas Sanders has dealt with a lot of things in his lifetime: the super assassin from Hydra despite Hydra having been thought wiped out in 1945, the lab experiment that went so completely, terribly wrong that it took a liking to human flesh, the millionaire who's genius son created a working robotic suit of armor that nearly started World War Three, the god that popped down to Earth for a friendly hello and nearly obliterated New Mexico in an attempt to get back to his homeworld, and who could forget the german created, American raised super soldier that just woke up from a seventy year long nap in the frozen tundra of North America.

    Thomas has been around. He's seen a lot.
    ***
    aka when disaster strikes, its up to one team of misfits to step up and defend the world from alien force to the likes of which no one has ever imagined before.

    Summary

    Andrew takes Bee's advice and finds more than he thought he would

    ~

    His phone chirruped with the notification coming through, blue light from the screen splitting the darkness of a room after midnight. For a slow moment, he watched it, breath suspended in the air like delicate shards of glass frozen at the moment they’d been shattered. A breath in might kill him, reaching forward might bleed him dry. He wanted to dive through the space and see what parts of him came out unscathed.

    The phone screen went dark.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    A gut punch I need to be able to find and read again and again and again. An awfully amazing character study of a different Andrew. Of Andrew. Idk. I love Nicky.

    Summary

    The boy behind the mask did not exist. He was nothing but a shell, a pawn to be used in a cruel man’s dangerous game. That was the only reason he was alive, the only reason he was allowed to take up space in a world that otherwise would refuse him, discarding him as if he were nothing more than a broken toy. The boy behind the mask was not worth anyone’s attention, worth anyone’s love, and he had been conditioned to believe that as fact since the day he was born.

    And yet it wasn’t true. Despite all odds, there would always be at least one person in the world who considered him more than deserving of their love, whose heart he had burrowed himself so far into that it would be impossible to disentangle himself. No matter how long it took, how difficult of a task it would be, Darius would make sure to change his mind because even if no one else in the world loved him, Darius would. That was the only fact Hunter needed to believe.

    ---
    An AU where Darius meets and starts bonding with Hunter 2 years before canon events. It's a bonding fic. They bond.

    Summary

    Kaveh smiles up at the stranger. "Sorry, he's right! I am taken. By him. But he doesn't know it yet."

    What.

    "Wait, what did you mean by that?" Al-Haitham asks faintly.

    "Oh, that?" Kaveh scoffs. "You're a little dense. Obviously, I meant exactly what I said. I wouldn't want to be kept by anybody but you."

    "But we are—" Al-Haitham trips over his words, trailing behind Kaveh as he walks purposefully through the city. "We aren't. Together. Neither of us has confirmed anything of the sort."

    Kaveh gives him a derisory look. "And what, we don't act like it? Some things don't have to be put into words to be understood. Ah, I forgot. Haravatat. You probably wouldn't accept anything else any other way."

    "It is not logical to make assumptions without empirical evidence."

    "You scholarly types," Kaveh mutters. "Always so particular."

    So. Al-Haitham is in love with Kaveh. This has got to be somebody's fault.

    Cue the five stages of grief.
