Summary
Princess,
In Almyra, sharing a hookah is a sacred tradition between former warring factions to cement peace and allyship. The herbs are a special blend that encourage relaxation and good will. And no offense, Edelgard, but you could probably use both.
_______Or, Claude von Riegan sends a gift for the Emperor of Fodlan. It leads to an interesting evening for the Emperor and her two closest ministers.

Summary
Everyone knew that Al Neri was loyal beyond reason. This was not out of personal interest in backing a man who could help him rise to power. Many men followed Michael because with luck he would one day be Godfather. Al followed because, to all intents and purposes, Michael Corleone was God.
It would be years before this view changed, before the bodyguard grew up and, what’s more, grew a brain with which to actually think about Michael. In doing so, he discovered a host of new reasons to stay true.*Al Neri's perspective on events and the evolution of his feelings for his boss, from his first meeting with Michael in the novel to the final scene of the second film.*

Bookmarker's Notes
“You’ve spent time thinking about this.” There was a faint note of surprise in Michael’s even voice, like one of his guard dogs had just up and performed a party trick. Which seemed like a pretty apt analogy, thought Al.

Summary
Instead of committing suicide, Javert goes on a three-day bender. When Valjean finds him, Javert assumes he's a hallucination. Things proceed awkwardly from there.
--
“Where are you going?” the hallucination asked, which was foolish. Surely his brain knew what Javert planned.
“To the nearest--” Javert paused, looked at the recently vacated wine-ship, and amended what he had been about to say. “To the next wine-shop. Obviously I am not drunk enough if you are here.”
The apparition got to its feet with a wince, as though his mind had ridiculously conjured aches and pains with which to torment Valjean’s specter. “Javert, your words make no sense,” it said, and Javert laughed again.
“I am making perfect sense.” He touched his pocket where he kept his money, frowned. “I hope you are only a drink or two from going away. I do not know how much more beer I can afford.”

“You will attend me as I ready myself.”
An intimidation technique. Tarkin feels a bolt of frisson run through him at the brilliance of the maneuver. His responding smile is slow, indulgent.
“I would be glad to assist you.”

Summary
For someone he'd hero-worshipped for so long, Steve Rogers in the flesh is a pretty big disappointment. For one thing, he keeps looking at Tony as though he reminds him of someone else, and even if he never says anything, Tony's pretty sure it's his father. A lifetime of not measuring up to Howard's expectations is more than enough, thank you very much, and he's certainly not going to make an effort to live up to any of Steve's. Steve's pretty clearly failed to live up to his expectations, in any case, and that's not hypocritical at all.

“You know what the worst thing is?” Steve asks.
Tony shakes his head.
“It’s that it’s not enough that I have to find out that they’re dead and somehow carry on. I could manage that. It’s that I know that they had to find out I was dead, and that they didn’t carry on. Not as well as they should have.”
There’s nothing Tony can say to that, so he just nods and pours Steve a drink.
Beautiful

The world changes for Herc Hansen in many ways after the kaiju attack on Sydney, but if there's one positive thing about it, it's that Stacker Pentecost becomes an important part of his life.

Bookmarker's Notes
They had time together. Herc will always be grateful for that. They had moments in Hong Kong while they prepared for the end, times behind closed doors and nights spent in the false safety of each other’s arms.
Really they had more time than that. They had over a decade of friendship. That can’t ever be erased.

The prompt was "Lestrade, knowing Mycroft bugs all of Sherlock's aquaintences homes, calls his own phone to vent about the consulting detective". This is what evolved.

Bookmarker's Notes
What he would never understand later was why he kept calling after he had realized that someone was actually, truly listening. Maybe, he thought, it was BECAUSE they were listening. Someone to talk to who didn’t speak back, didn’t leave judgments or make pitying faces at him when he let vent all the frustrations, sorrows and disappointments of the job. To know that someone was listening, quietly, and occasionally leaving him food and tea after long days on short sleep. It was creepy, completely and utterly creepy, he knew. And somehow, so very comforting.

Summary
Marius, looking chastised but sad, says, “Is there nothing then for romance, Enjolras? It seems a strange emotion to be struck with, distracting as a fever, if it means nothing.”
It is Grantaire who answers first. “Nothing means anything, Marius,” says the cynic. “Yet who would ever die for his country if he did not love some person who lived within it?”

Bookmarker's Notes
There is something to kissing a person you have kissed before. It is always smarter, more knowing, quickly and delicately intimate. There are none of the fumbles of the first try. It is firm pressure, instant tongue, movement in quest of greater friction.
