Better Halves (and other such falsehoods) by Astereae

Summary
Danny’s looking at him like he’s crazy. His hair’s dried up into a mess of waves, and there’s some tomato seeds on the corner of his mouth. “You just bailed me out of jail. And you think this is a good idea?”
“I don’t have bad ideas, Fenton. And like you’ve just said, I have collateral on you.”
“So you’re blackmailing me into pretending to date you?”
Tim shrugs. “Or you could just sign the NDA.”
OR
Danny's trying to recover all the shards to an entity's chalice so that it'll stop destroying the zone while tensions rise amongst his subjects- and trying to finish high school.
Tim's juggling his case load, his work as CEO, and does not have time to be embroiled in a sex scandal right now. If that means he has to pretend to date a very suspicious heir to a rival company, then so be it.
It's a mutually beneficial relationship. So what if Tim's becoming a little too intrigued by the illusive, powerful Phantom? So what if Danny can't stand the Justice League for leaving him to deal with all of Amity's problems when he was just 14? That's a superhero thing.
And their fake boyfriend has no clue that they're a superhero.

Bookmarker's Notes
A cold and calculating boy falls in love with our favorite eternal entity. A lot of exploration of familial bonds and how the perception of those we love changes us.
(Fake dating au, kidnapping, flesh market, Vlad losing his fucking mind, betrayal, the inescapable desire to be enough, to actually have the things you want and be allowed to keep them)

Family is something that can be so complex sometimes - even when you don't want to care about the people who shaped your life it is hard to escape the lingering imprints.

Summary
Childe had always assumed that he would die young. He had accepted that a long time ago, ever since he accepted the mantle of a Fatui Harbinger. However, he always thought that he would die in a glorious fight, his body broken but spirit relishing the strong opponent that had bested him. He was okay with that type of death.
Unfortunately, it seemed like Fate had decided to add one last insult to injury, because, here Childe was, dying because he had fallen in love with the ex-Geo Archon. The same Archon who seemed to have discarded him like an old toy ever since the Osial Incident.
---
In which divine beings are cruel and a cursed Childe starts preparing for his inevitable death because no Archon could ever love a mortal....Right?

Bookmarker's Notes
Childe is hopelessly in love with a god who has seemingly forsaken him. Plotting his own death in the face of his friends' continuous betrayal (and very poor communication) does nothing to help the rage within him.
Meanwhile, Zhongli is going through a true romcom montage to win back the trust of the love of his life. It isn't going very well.

Bookmarker's Notes
Shouto finds his brother alive by sheer conspiracy-driven need to not be so alone anymore. He's an awkward, stunted, horrifically lonely teenager who is only just starting to realize what being loved and cared for looks like. Dabi is not the kind of caretaker anyone would have wanted for him, but damn is he trying to shove all of his sharp edges into something resembling care for the littlest brother who keeps saving his life.

Bookmarker's Notes
So here's the deal- everyone knows Lan Wangji was a little crazy about Wei Wuxian. The entirety of Gusu Lan knows he was in seclusion for three years after fighting his clan elders for the Yiling Patriarch. You know who doesn't know these obvious facts???? Wangxain.
Or it goes like this- Lan Wangji was imprisoned for years without truly knowing why and keeps making room in his life for someone who is dead. Wei Wuxain, exiled and more ghost than human some days, knows too many things about the stranger his life is suddenly tied to.

Summary
Brasidas remembers lying on the lonely deck of his relief-ship and speculating what it might feel like to see her again.
Sunrise. Fresh rain. Battle-frenzy. A deep belly-laugh, or a spinning blue-lotus high. The crush of a wave coming back from low tide, dense and hard, knocking the breath from him like a body blow from a sledgehammer.
He should have known it would be like none of those. So many things about Kassandra are without compare.

Summary
Achilles/Patroclus. When Patroclus, the clumsy son of a disappointed father, is exiled to Phthia for fostering, he feels totally justified in his dislike for the king's son. After all, who could possibly tolerate someone so arrogant, so narcissistic, and so wholly and completely everything that he wants to be? Rated M for later chapters.

Bookmarker's Notes
A slight retelling of how a outcasted boy and a rather sociopathic prince fall in the kind of love that rest with the soul.
Features some crazy sadist, a lesbian princess, slaves of both beloved and distained, a small war, a lying harlot, a neurotic but not unkind mother, a hated father, and vague prophecy.

Bookmarker's Notes
When I think of this story, my mind is convinced it only just found it, maybe a year ago max. Six years later, I am still heartbroken over the complexities of Jack Harkness and just how he loves the man who can never stop running.
