Summary
In his early years, Theo learned weapons are not supposed to weep. They don’t cry or show any emotion apart from those they can’t fake to manipulate others. His broken insides may boil, but all he could display on the outside was a slight wince, barely visible even from up close. The icy walls and chemical scent became something he might have called home if he knew what it meant. He used to ignore those things, just to let his mind rest from reality.
“Because when some were destined for heroic actions, glory and honour, others were made to be the gun, destined to catch the bullet one day or another."

Summary
The moment Liam flicks the lighter on and touches it to the roughly shaved area where the entrance wound lies, Theo can’t seem to help the tiniest flinch. He can hear the strain of Theo’s teeth as they grind together, almost crack from the pressure. His breathing is ragged, his heartbeat barely wrangled down to normal.
“I know, Teddy, I know, just hang on for a couple more seconds,” Liam chants under his breath.
He’s been holding his breath without realizing it. The stench of burning flesh, too fresh to even trick his mind into recalling the scent of meat on a grill, would have his stomach in knots if he were inhaling any air. A distant part of Liam’s brain, though, recognizes grimly that the only thing Theo can do at this point is to breathe through the pain, and he’s tired of wondering how well acquainted his boyfriend (not boyfriend?) has been since age nine with the smell of bodies burning and rotting.

Summary
Superman and Batman go undercover with a couple's therapist to investigate a string of recent murders. It goes... okay.
“We’ve been working together for over six years and sleeping together for nearly five and a half. But we're not a couple. He’s made that very clear, so I'm at a loss for words on why he dragged me here since, y’know, we're not a couple.”
Clark shifts his whole body again. He hooks one foot under him, letting his boot get on this woman's thousand plus dollar couch and watches Bruce in profile. He hates how beautiful he is.
“It was a mistake, right, B? It’s unprofessional, right, B? It's not going to happen again, right, B? But then two days later you're down on your knees for me again in the locker room with all our coworkers just on the other side of the door and you're begging me to fuck you in your car when our shifts are done, and then you're calling me at three in the morning to rush over because you miss me and you need me and you can't wait. And then you're kicking me out at five because you want to sleep and you have never — not even once — stayed the night with me.”

Summary
''A little nonsense now and then is cherished by the wisest men'
He'd thought he had already been floated. So when Bellamy watched people rush past Octavia, the first person to step on the ground in 100 years, he felt his breath catch when he spotted the familiar head of hair. He was taller now, sharper. All angles and points. Bellamy took a step forwards, ready to move over to him.To pull him into a hug, to introduce him to O like he'd always wished he could do. But then their eyes met, and Murphy turned away, leaving Bellamy like he once left him.
He had a second chance, no more secrets behind them and a new world to take advantage of. If there was one thing Bellamy was sure of, it was that he wouldn't fail Murphy like he did on the ark.- Language:

Summary
Draco’s voice shook. “You don’t know what it’s like to have you. No one knows what it’s like to lose you.” A sob fled from him. “Please don’t make me be the first.”
Harry’s face crumpled, looking away, and Draco knew then it was over.
“It’s my past, it must be. I asked before and you said –”
“I have forgiven you –”
“I am a person!” Then quieter, “A person; not just something to be forgiven.”~
With his family’s name and misdeeds laying heavily upon him, Draco Malfoy returns to Hogwarts for a torturous eighth year. He finds himself unrequitedly in love with Harry Potter and at odds with everyone around him, even the bricks. While navigating the post-war world, he is forced to decide both who he is and what he wants.
