I've obviously watched the kiss scene waaaaaay too many times. Shameless porn without plot.

I've been trying to figure you out, tell me then would you lend a hand? by Dark_Rosaleen

Summary
“So, tell me what’s so great about Harrington, then.”
He doesn’t really know why he says it, it’s not like Eddie cares about the old King of Hawkins High; Steve Harrington is an asshole. That’s just a fact of life. The sky is blue, high school is pointless, Steve Harrington is a dickhead.
But Eddie likes this kid, likes all of them actually.
Dustin turns to look at him, a small smile on his lips, his eyes softening, and bingo.
-
Six times Eddie tries to understand who Steve is, and the one time he finally manages it. (and works some things out about himself along the way.)
Title is from 'Figure you out' by Djo - because I had to and the lyrics fit.

sweet sounds in the night (hold me close, hold me tight) by Resacon1990

Summary
Zoro just crosses his arms in return, clearly defiant. “Captains orders.”
A muscle twitches in Sanji’s jaw. “Don’t be an idiot.”
Zoro’s eye narrows. “Captains orders.”
Sanji knows a losing battle when he sees one, but he’s never gone down without a fight. “I will not share a bed with you,” he hisses, hands tightening into fists.
Or, five times Zoro and Sanji sleep together... and the one time they don't

Summary
"Are you hitting on me?"
John stared openly at Butcher as he reached blindly for the scotch and downed it like a shot. Butcher’s grin was a dangerous thing and his eyes promised a beautiful ruin.
“Name’s Billy,” he said, holding out his hand.
(AKA Homelander goes out in his civilian identity and encounters Billy Butcher at a bar)

Fandoms: Interview with the Vampire (TV 2022)

Summary
He’s a boy hiding in a closet, temporarily safe from the men who will inevitably tie his ankles to the bedframe until they pull into harbor somewhere at the bottom of Africa. He’s a monster who killed a paralegal in cold blood eight hours ago. He’s five hundred years old. He’s fourteen, maybe— they guess his age instead of asking at the auction. It doesn’t take long for Arun to forget all the things he used to know about himself, to be reliant upon the slavers’ incomplete records for his last name, his birthday, the name of his village.
They don’t pass this information on to the brothel owner. The next time he loses it, he can’t get it back.
[Armand has a nightmare. It sticks around when he wakes up. Louis talks him down.]

Summary
“I never saw the finished piece,” Armand says wistfully, “only the preparatory sketches.”
It’s mostly the surprise that knocks the laugh out of Daniel.
Armand twists to face him, face twisted into a wounded grimace.
“C’mon,” Daniel groans. “I mean, seriously? Michelangelo’s muse?”
“Don’t laugh,” Armand says quietly.
Daniel should stop. He knows he should stop, that he's pushing too far on buttons he knows he should leave well alone. But what was it Armand had said at the penthouse? It’s his nature. He can never resist throwing one more bomb.
or:
a museum date goes wrong.
