Summary
“Eh, Grandad,” came Jamie fucking Tartt’s whiny ass voice through the speakers. “New star power meets old star power, yeah? Gotta show ‘em how it’s done, blow this shitshow out of the water.”
In his peripheral vision, he could make out the shape of Tartt’s stupid oversized hand saluting. Roy whipped his head toward him as much as possible with a helmet heavier than a small child perched on his shoulders. “Piss. Off. Tartt.”
(Jamie's wanted to drift with Roy Kent from the moment he learned what the drift was. Just shy of fourteen years later, he's fairly certain they’re soulmates.)
_____Pacific Rim AU. In which Roy is too old and too tired to deal with a soulmate, and Jamie's just discovered soulmates exist.

Summary
There were no words to describe his call up. Something that Jamie had been working towards since he was nine, a dream achieved at seventeen. Pen to paper, signed himself to a club. To the club. The club that raised him from that nine year old boy playing rec league footy with his friends from the estate into the footballer he was when he was seventeen.
And this time, unlike the papers he’d signed when he first joined the Academy, the name on it was his own.
Player’s surname: Tartt.
Player’s forename(s): Jamie.No James. No Junior. He’d had it legally changed by deed poll the day he turned sixteen. And now, he was seventeen, and they wanted him.
A brief look into Jamie Tartt's first few seasons in the Premier League.

You Saw Me Standing Alone, startts
murmured, “He’s just a man, Jamie.” Paddy was his only teammate to call him Jamie . Paddy and Pep. From everyone else, it was still Tartt or 51 or kid . “A mean old man, but just a man.”
“I know two’a those, then,” Jamie mumbled, wrapping his arms around Paddy’s waist, pressing his face into his firm abs. He could feel, not hear, the chuckle that he got in response to that. It made Jamie feel a little lighter, a little less guilty .

Summary
Roy makes it all the way to the treatment room, hand on the doorknob about to open it when he stops short.
Because fucking Jamie Tartt is sitting in their treatment room.
Roy has every intention of just turning around and walking away, Until he sees a boot flying across the room, nearly clocking Jamie in the face. Until he sees someone cuffing Jamie upside the head, screaming at him with disappointment and anger.

Summary
“Coach,” greeted Jamie fucking Tartt, bobbing his head. “Eh, was wondering-”
“No,” interrupted Roy. “Come on, fucking- let’s go.”
And that was another fucking thing about getting old.
The fucking young people around you stayed so fucking young, with their good knees and their taut, lithe bodies and their fucking flawless faces.
And their big fucking eyes, all hurt when you fucking told them no.
It was the fucking worst, being fucking old and looking at the young.
Not that he looked at anyone else the way he looked at Jamie Tartt.

Summary
They eat their breakfast in a pleasant silence, until Roy pauses and sets down his fork.
"I forget things, don’t I?" he asks.
Jamie sighs, but manages to keep smiling a little.
"Yeah, sometimes. It’s okay, though. I’m good at reminding you."
Roy blinks. Frowns.
He’s quiet for a moment.
"Do I have fucking dementia?"
Jamie’s stomach drops.

Jamie has this dream, sometimes. It starts, and he can’t breathe, and he can’t wake up.
It’s like: He’s in a car, and he’s driving real fucking fast, and for some reason it’s dark out and he can’t see for shit but he’s still not slowing down.
It’s like: He doesn’t want to slow down.
It’s like: He’s in a car, and he’s driving real fucking fast, and for some reason it’s dark out and he can’t see for shit but he’s still not slowing down and there’s a cliff rising in front of him, closer and closer and closer, and he might not be able to see for shit but for some reason he can see that cliff and the empty abyss beyond it.
It’s like: He knows the cliff is coming and he doesn’t want to slow down.
Jamie has this dream, sometimes. It ends, and he wakes up, and he still can’t breathe.

In Manus Tuas, FatRainbowCat
He slides like a ghost from the boot room to the weight room and is on the verge of a spectacular exit when Sam spots him. Sam, who’s been watching him just as closely as Roy. Sam, who’s his brother in arms, one of his best mates, one of the people Jamie loves most on this earth. Sam, who’s a kind, beautiful soul.
He takes one look at Jamie, worried but unimpressed, and shouts out the open door.
“Found him, Coach.”
Sam is a dirty, low-down fucking dirty snitch. A traitor. Worse than that fucking guy who convinced all his mates to stab Caesar.

Bookmarker's Notes
In theory, there was no reason why Roy couldn't kick a ball around a kid's pitch. There wasn't a reason that Roy couldn't occasionally come out on the grass during training and demonstrate something instead of describing it.
No reason, except for the very clear and painful one was that once you'd been the best and you could no longer keep up with even an amateur player, why the fuck would you?
Except to have a drop of fun on a cold day in November, halfway across the world from anyone who gave a shit, because your boyfriend didn't even quite ask.

Summary
"Mum said puberty is going to hit me like a train any day now, so I thought I should learn a bit about sexual attraction now, before the hormones turn my brain to jelly. But it's all right, I'll just look it up on the intern—"
"NO," Roy barks. "Do not fucking look it up on the internet. We'll talk about it... later, all right? After dinner." He can cobble together a workable game plan by then. Or text his sister and make her take care of it. Either way.
"Okay," Phoebe agrees. "But if the puberty train hits before then, I'll be woefully unprepared and it will be all your fault."

"Uh." Jamie still looks baffled. "Because me second day on the team you told me I were a piece of shit that got created when all the different animals of the world stepped in their own shit and tracked it into a big pile made up of every imaginable variety of shit and it all congealed together to form the most comprehensive piece of complete and total shit the universe has ever known. And then you drew the big piece of shit on the whiteboard and labeled all the bits of it with all the different animal names and you drew me quiff on the top."

Summary
They fucked drunk, Roy on half a case of 8% and Jamie on his disgusting flavoured spritzers. Roy couldn’t even remember how it happened, afterwards. Not at first. He remembered snippets, like Jamie taking off his shirt, and unzipping Roy’s trousers with his teeth. He remembered laughing a lot. He remembered being almost dizzy after he’d come, and his vision swirling back into focus to see Jamie raised up on his knees straddling Roy’s hips, stripping his cock fiercely with one hand while he gripped Roy’s wrist so hard he could feel the fucking bones grinding together, and Jamie’s hungry gaze on him the whole time. The way Jamie’s eyelids fluttered, and the pinkness of his open mouth that had just had Roy’s fucking cock in it.
He remembered kissing Jamie, when it was all over. The strange lurch in his belly as he realised they hadn’t done it before, not properly. The way Jamie still tasted of raspberry and vanilla, and kissed like he wanted to devour Roy whole.
They didn’t talk afterwards for a month.

He saluted them both, and then turned and headed back for the bus. There were still places to go, people to meet, matches to play.
It wasn’t over yet.

Summary
“If there’s a big man coaching Richmond…” Roy gestures broadly—as insultingly broad as he can. “I haven’t seen him.”
Jamie looks unimpressed. Like he’d been waiting to be hurt but expected more. Looks fucking disappointed. Roy’s not done.
“All I see is a little boy, barely two years into a job he thinks he deserves because he’s got the loudest mouth in the room. With a cheap win under his belt because he probably got on his knees for the referee.”

Summary
“Brutally honest,” Jamie says, as if he’s still trying to get the point across. “No more secrets.”
Roy stares at him. “Yes. I know what words mean.”
“Okay,” Jamie says, and then he says, “I talked to Keeley about maybe being bisexual because that night we fought over her I wasn’t just jealous about her.”
Or: Roy Kent finds himself in a situation. Fuck everyone, and Jamie Tartt in particular (gently, on soft sheets, all night long – ugh).

Hospital Ball (Jamie Tartt's Adventures in Matchmaking) by dannyPURO

Summary
Jamie's the best matchmaker ever--Roy and Keeley are gonna be back together before they even realize what's hit them. He's also, maybe, possibly fucking Roy on the side, but that's just until Roy gets back with Keeley and everything goes back to normal. Yente shit, like. (Note: This is not what anybody else thinks is going on, like, at all.)
In which Roy tries to be a good boyfriend to someone who doesn't know he has a boyfriend, Keeley and Jamie can't figure out who's stealing Roy from whom, and Jamie ponders the ethics of plagiarizing a blowjob for the greater good and learns to cook in the meantime. A comedy of errors.

Summary
After the locker room disaster in Manchester, Roy drives Jamie home. The chaos they find when they arrive at the house swiftly proves it is not a safe place to spend the night, forcing a change of plans and a reroute to Roy’s own home.
The following day Jamie experiences, in this order:
The most bewildering breakfast of his life, a penalty kick clinic with a seven-year-old, and an overwhelming display from his teammates that brings him face to face with the fact that not only has he been accepted back in Richmond it’s also possible he might be, in a way he can’t remotely process or understand, loved here.

Summary
Natalie cracks open a bottle of sparkling Moscato with an audible pop! and remarks, “Just look at the muscles in those forearms. He could hold you up against a wall, no question.”
Roy, who has never once looked at Jamie Tartt’s arms with anything other than detached professionalism, and really only during the rare instances when he was on spotting duty at the weight bench, downs an entire glass of wine and resigns himself to what amounts to psychological torture every Wednesday evening for the foreseeable future.
Roy reluctantly watches the entire season of Lust Conquers All.
Despite that, he doesn't really figure out how to deal with Jamie Tartt until months later.

Summary
Jaime didn’t like the Starks at all. He didn’t like their earnestness and honesty and prudishness, he didn’t like their cold heavy-walled castle, he didn’t like their frozen block of a realm, and he especially didn’t like Robb Stark, who had saved his son’s life and been kind to him and got him to sleep, and what business of his was it to have done any of those things?

Summary
As she looked around her living room - at the green velvet ottoman she didn't remember purchasing, the 14th century Wizarding texts on her bookshelf, the hideous and obnoxiously ostentatious grandfather clock that could only belong to a Malfoy - she pictured the toothbrush next to hers on her bathroom counter, the old Slytherin quidditch jersey she regularly tripped over in her bedroom, and the mint chocolate chip ice cream in her freezer - a flavour she abhorred, but that a particular, pale, pointy faced aristocrat sat across from her had a tragic fondness for.
Her chest burning, as if she drank a barrel of bubotuber pus, Hermione turned to him with narrowed, accusing eyes. "Malfoy...are we dating?"
If there's one thing Hermione Granger knows, it's that she simply doesn't have time to date. Draco decides to date her, anyway.
