    Summary

    “Oh for God’s sake. I’m not Peter’s fucking father. I’m not, I never have been, and I never fucking want to be, okay? I like the kid, sure, we all do, but at the end of the day, he’s just a smart little superhero I happen to mentor, alright? Now can that be the last I hear of that, please?”

    or; Peter overhears another denial Tony is Peter's dad right after he realises he sees him as one. It's about as messy as you might expect.

    Summary

    Keith is a witch who owns a shop where he breaks curses on both magical items and people under spells. Love spells, family curses passed down generations, cursed heirlooms lurking the attic -- he can handle them all. But one day a boy named Lance walks into his shop, and his curse is darker and more difficult to break than anything Keith has ever seen before: the curse is draining his magic, and without his magic, Lance will die.

    Summary

    “We’re coming after you Lance,” Shiro’s voice left no room for argument, but Lance had never been good at following the rules.

    “You would do the same thing, wouldn’t you?” Lance’s fingers skimmed over the control panel as he spoke, brows furrowed in concentration as he tried to make heads or tails of all the buttons and switches. “If you were in my shoes, wouldn’t you have done the same thing? I know I haven’t done much in the way of proving myself, I know that my word doesn’t mean much of anything right now, but I can do this”

    “We know you can, buddy” Hunk croaked, voice tense with subdued tears, “but you don’t have to, we’re a team”

    “We’re a family…” Pidge added in a whisper soft enough to break his heart.

    “We are,” Lance mused with a gentle smile as he lifted his head to stare out the windshield and watch the stars drift by, “and that’s exactly why I can’t let you save me”

    Summary

    Keith’s lips split into a small grin. “What if you and I were to form an attachment?”

    “An attachment?” Lance blinked. “You’re crazy.”

    “With you by my side, the world will think that I have finally found a husband. Every presumptuous mother will leave me alone, and everyone will be looking at you.” Keith grinned. “You must know, men and women are always interested in a man when they believe another, particularly a duke, to be interested in him as well.”

    “And you presume Whistledown–”

    “I presume that she’ll call us exactly what she sees. Me, unavailable. You, desirable.”

    “It’ll never work.”

    “Maybe. But provided that you do not wish to marry me and I do not wish to marry you, whatever should you have to lose?”
