Summary
The premise of Married at First Sight is simple: get matched to a complete stranger by a group of relationship experts and meet your future spouse on your wedding day. So far, this 'scientific' experiment has only been limited to the straights, but for the upcoming season of Married at First Sight UK, things are going to be different: it will be a queer-only season.
Joe applies because of a bet, Nicky applies because his friends bully him into it. Both of them are sure they won't be going any further than the application process, except... they do. But that's fine. They'll just meet at the ceremony, get married, try not to murder each other for the mandatory six weeks, and then they will get divorced and go their own, very separate ways.
Or will they?

Summary
Prompt fill for this prompt at The Old Guard Kink Meme:
Joe falls in love easily and it's brought him a lot more disappointment than happiness. The people he falls for might be nice in the beginning, but once the honeymoon period is over it seems like they always find something to criticize. So after a string of relationships that always seem to end with his partners being critical of things that make Joe who he is, Joe comes into his 30s convinced he'll never settle down happily.
Then he meets Nicky, who seems to be genuinely nice and always says the nicest things about Joe's art. Joe has gotten his heart broken too many times to be willing to give this a chance, but over the course of many months and Nicky proving him wrong time and time again, Joe slowly starts to think his love life might not be a lost cause after all.

Summary
Lucia di Genova and Mariam Al-Kaysani are very good friends. They meet up every Wednesday morning to not-gossip over tea and excellent pastries, and their favourite subject is, of course, their sons.
As time passes and it becomes painfully clear that Yusuf and Nicolò are in love with one another, and then dating one another, Lucia and Mariam wait patiently for their boys to come to them and announce their relationship. Except, Yusuf and Nicolò never do. Instead, Lucia and Mariam are forced to watch from the sidelines as Yusuf and Nicolò continue to pretend to be 'just friends', even though they have been together for over ten years and have been living together for just as long.
Basically, just a lot of wholesomeness and families (but mothers especially) being very supportive.

Summary
Prompt fill for this prompt at The Old Guard Kink Meme:
The new guy in Nicky's share house is upsettingly hot. Hot when he stumbles out of his room with bed mussed hair, when he's coming back from the shower glistening in a low slung towel, when he's cooking and nodding along to music in their kitchen. Nicky is dying and spends a lot of time hissing into the phone about it in Italian.
Joe is just trying to get through the last year of his masters and, while admittedly he's been having a little fun with it, knows it's probably time to try and weave the fact that he speaks Italian into a conversation with his hot house mate.

Kyra compares Kassandra to Artemis.
Kassandra doesn't agree, but it's not like that really matters, is it?

Summary
“And it didn’t bother you that the guard thought you were -- that we were -- ?” Nicolò asks, for what is definitely the fourth time, as they bed down, hopefully hidden from view by the reeds and trees of the Nile delta.
Yusuf sighs, rolling onto his back. “Do I mind that he thought I would be foolish enough to abandon all reason and take up with one of the men who helped sack Al-Quds? Yes, a little. Not enough to stop from using it as a perfectly serviceable escape route.”
“No,” Nicolò says, “I mean, that you would prefer the company of other men at all.”
Yusuf blinks, bemused. He hadn’t even thought of that. “As a rule, I try not to be insulted by accusations that are true,” he says drily.
OR: Five times they were faking it and two times it was real.

Summary
The beautiful man drops his hands from Joe’s face instantly, and his skin feels colder without his touch.
“I’m Nicky,” Nicky says woodenly. “I’m...I’m your familiar.”
“I have a familiar?”
(The last thing Joe remembers is getting drunk with his best friend Booker in a bar after a fight with his terrible boyfriend, Keane. But he wakes up in a hospital, with a gorgeous man at his bedside, telling him impossible things. Things like how he's Joe's familiar. Things like how they're married.)

Summary
“I think there are things we don’t know about each other, that are dangerous,” Nicky said. “This isn’t done.” He gestured to the distance between them, how they’d managed to keep speaking in some kind of peace.
Joe walked further into the field of flowers. When his hands brushed the petals they curled into him as worshipers would, kissing at his skin for warmth, for light and the greed of the sun’s brilliance. The dew hissed away into the air. Then they were only a length apart.
“I think it’s about time we reevaluate what’s done,” Joe declared. He held out his palm, skin a lovely brown, and Nicky swore he could see the blood in his veins, leaking gold.
“How about we do what we want?”
Oh what sweet seduction, what dashing defiance.
He took Joe’s hand, and the sky above them burst into color.

Summary
Hartenstraat AU
After a life-threatening accident derails his life, Nicky pursues his original dream of being an illustrator. But that, alongside adjusting to civilian life, almost proves too difficult until Nile suggests he design the logo for The Aubergenie, a bakery co-owned by Sébastien and Joe.
In between a bad first impression and a second chance, Nicky unwittingly saves Joe’s daughter. Suddenly, he finds himself a part of their lives, falling in love with them both as he works on the logo and a story inspired by them—and counting down til this fantasy falls apart.
Despite their connection being too good to be true, various struggles, worries and expectations culminate in a heart-breaking misunderstanding that threatens to divide them before they can truly be together.
Will they be able to salvage what they had, or had they burned too bright to last?
