Summary
Vimes waved that stupid idea off. "Oh, right, you'll just go move into your empty old house — sorry, empty old childhood home — in Ankh and live by yourself till you die, of course. You'll have the rats whipped into shape in no time. … Sir."
Vetinari looked blank in an extremely suspicious way.

Summary
Hob navigates the eccentricities of his one true friend in an attempt to increase his understanding of the universe and his place in it... or, that's what he tells himself. Mostly he is concerned about what happens if, theoretically, a god really needed therapy.
Dream works to consolidate what he has always known, and what he knows now, to learn from his past mistakes.
A slow burn expansion of friendship to truly knowing, with a few road bumps on the way and an adventure or two.

Summary
Bishop Takes Knight—Historical Suit of Armor Disappears Without A Trace!
Nolan can’t help but trace his fingers over the grainy image beneath the headline, the familiar business card, and the even more familiar shape stamped on it. The Bishop. Our bishop, he thinks, and shudders a little bit, feeling strangely indecent sitting out here in public touching his fingers to the image of his soulmark, their soulmark, a shape that must have been copied faithfully from the naked skin of his other half.
There in the paper, for anyone to look at—but not for anyone else to understand. A secret message just for him. Intimate and brazen; connecting them across countries, timezones, crime scenes.
--
Or, Nolan thinks he's been flirting with his soulmate-slash-professional rival for the last few years until he realizes he actually has two soulmates. And they've already found each other.

Summary
His shoulders dropped, and he shut his eyes. “Forgive me. It’s an autonomic reaction. Prime used various hormones to repress such things, but it seems they’ve worn off. When we have access to a lab, I can synthesize the same hormone cocktail to keep those instincts in check.”
“Why would you want to keep them ‘in check’?”

Or: Hordak’s body is finally his own. Now he just needs to figure out what he wants to do with it. Thankfully, Entrapta is here to help.

Summary
As soon as Aubrey Thyme, psychotherapist, had opened her office door and seen her new client, Anthony J. Crowley, sitting in her waiting area, she was observing and assessing him. At first glance, she paid attention to the following:
--His clothing was expensive and stylish;
--He wore very strange but noticeable cologne;
--His relationship to the seat he occupied could only, very loosely, be described as “sitting;”
--He looked angry;
--He was wearing sunglasses.What Aubrey Thyme, a professional, thought, upon first seeing her new client was: you’re going to be a fun one, aren’t you?

Any Way You Want It by Justkeeptrekkin for ElvenAce

Summary
Saving the world is exhausting work. With Heaven and Hell off their backs, it seems as good a time as any for Crowley and Aziraphale to take a proper break. Neither one of them predicts the direction their holiday takes.
Who'd have thought that sharing a cottage in Scotland would be quite so romantic?

Summary
It wasn’t, Aziraphale told himself crossly, as though he was a particular follower of gossip. Half the things people said about Crowley probably weren’t true, anyway, and even if they were, what did it matter? Aziraphale didn’t have to marry him. They just had to do Herbology together.
But this was fifth year, O.W.L.s year, and Aziraphale couldn’t afford any distractions. Especially snarky sunglasses-wearing ones.

Summary
Upon arriving back in Whitestone, Fredrick calls his third child to his side and says gravely, "My son, while I was gone I made arrangements for you to be married."
Percival, who was raised in nobility and has always quietly feared this exact thing his entire life, sets his jaw and nods obediently. "Yes, Father," he says, and then holes himself up in his workshop to drink.
Upon arriving back in Syngorn, Sildor calls the girl child to his side and says gravely, "My daughter, while I was gone I made arrangements for you to be married."
Vex'ahlia throws a chair through a window.
Or, the one where the Briarwoods never took over Whitestone, Thordak never destroyed Byroden, and two asshole nobles make a snap decision over whiskey. Percival struggles with his chronic emotional constipation and works on his tan, Vex'ahlia commits arson and sighs a lot, the de Rolo siblings win the award for Tal'Dorei's Least Helpful Peanut Gallery, and, eventually, there's a wedding. If they can all survive each other long enough to get to it.

you make my heart beat like the rain by starkmccall
Fandoms: Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)
14 Jul 2017
Tags
Summary
“Nice.” She bumps their shoulders together and then holds hers there, keeping a point of contact between them. “Same.” Peter looks up from his hands to her face, and she’s wearing an expression he’s never seen before. It’s kind, and open, and wildly beautiful in a way he’s never really noticed before, and oh God, his brain’s going to start composing some shitty poetry if he doesn’t look away in the next two seconds. It’s not that he’s never noticed Michelle is pretty, it’s kind of impossible not to, but it was always in an objective, factual way: the sky is blue, grass is green, Michelle is beautiful. And besides, he spent too much time pining over Liz to even think of anyone else. But now Liz is in Oregon, and Michelle is here, touching their shoulders together, and he’s probably going to tell her that he’s Spiderman.
Post-Homecoming. Peter develops feelings for Michelle, and mostly deals with it well.

A DC universe where moms are awesome and raise their kids right. Now with more melanin and queerness. Also, Gotham's in Michigan and Metropolis is in Connecticut. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Fics are in chronological order but are all standalone.
