“How did you find me?”
“Same way I always do.” I pluck Zihnal’s compass out of my pocket, showing him how the needle spins, turning to point straight at him.
His lip curve up at the edges. “That’s lucky.”

Summary
“Why a macchiato?” I finally ask as I steam the milk.
“Why not a macchiato?”
“Don’t be contrary.” I shoot back. “If you don’t like milk, order an espresso.”
“I do like milk.” He rests his elbows on the counter, a slow smile spreading across his face as he stares across at me.
“Then order a flat white.”
“Not that much milk.” One corner of his lips ticks up in a lopsided smirk.
My eye twitches. “F—” Fuck you, is what I was going to say, but at the last minute I realise he’s still a customer and I need to remain professional…and also I don’t want to give him the satisfaction of knowing how much he irritates me.

Summary
“This isn’t really a test of land navigation, Violence.” He smirks, reaching out to take my plate, putting it in the grass beside him. “It’s a test of teamwork.” His hand settles on my knee. “They wanted to know that we could put aside our differences and work together.”
“And we failed.” I repeat.
“Some of them did.” His hand creeps higher, fingertips sliding over my leathers, just brushing the inside of my thigh. “I think we’re doing a pretty good job of it.”
⚜️
Or, in a world where the Tyrrish haven’t rebelled, Xaden Riorson is an aristocrat and therefore must enrol in the infantry—which definitely explains how he ends up on his knees before Violet Sorrengail in the Hadden Woods, his face between her thighs. Totally.

he and louis once commanded stages together. they tackled any challenges to their future. and no matter how hard things got, they always returned to one another. harry would always return to louis. until one day, he finds he can't.

Summary
Ketterdam is a city of sin, but also a place where impossible dreams can come true. Inej Ghafa arrives with strong moral convictions and lofty ambitions, hoping that her law scholarship will be a ticket to a privileged world from which she can speak for those without a voice and make a difference in the lives of others. But something happens that shakes her faith to the core, and suddenly she finds herself on the precipice of accepting an offer she should refuse – from a man with blood on his hands, vengeance on his mind and hatred in his heart.

Summary
“I want you to look at me like that, Kaz, and I don’t know what to do about it.”
There was silence except for the rain. She knew she wasn’t making any sense, but how could anybody possibly understand? She barely understood it herself. It made her happy to see that look in his eyes, and that was terrifying. It went against every instinct she'd spent years cultivating as she wove in and out of the shadows of Ketterdam. It went against everything she’d had to do to survive.
------
What starts as an evening of playful teasing turns into a battle with complicated feelings for Inej, but Kaz manages to find the right words to say.

Summary
“…The modern viewer must remember that prior to the 1960s, soulmark portraits were the ultimate in taboo. But one can see how an artist like Captain Rogers would feel compelled to pick up his sketchbook…
...Captain Rogers never did a self-portrait; we can only speculate who his soulmate — or soulmates — might have been."

Summary
"You kind of have to be a little bit dumb to decide to climb Everest, I think,” Harry says. “Like at some point you should probably say to yourself, ‘Hey, this is really dangerous and expensive and stuff, and maybe I should just, like, become an architect or something.’”
Louis cocks an eyebrow. “An architect, Haz? Is that your secret dream? You want to build --”
“Shh,” Harry says, holding a finger up to Louis’s lips. “I’m trying to make a point. Just that, like, at some point, we all make a stupid choice to put our lives in danger, but that’s just part of why climbing this mountain is such an accomplishment, right? Because most people aren’t dumb enough to try.”
Or: An Everest AU where Louis sets out to climb the tallest mountain on the world and meets a curly-haired guy named Harry who worms his way into Louis's life. It's not long before reaching the summit becomes the least of Louis's worries.

Summary
Tomlinson looks Liam over, tilting his head. “Are you a swimmer as well?”
“Yeah,” Liam says, a little cautiously. Harry wonders if it’s Tomlinson’s fame or the unimpressed eyebrow that’s making Liam wary. “Distance, I’m doing the 1500m. Harry here’s a sprinter.”
“Ah,” says Tomlinson, turning his glinting eyes back to Harry. “So you’re not an endurance man.” A beat passes, and his grin grows, wide and filthy. "Shame."
Harry Styles is Team Great Britain's newest swimmer, and has spent his whole life training for this moment, a chance at the gold medal in the Rio 2016 Olympics. All his training, hard work, and dedication to no distractions is tested when he's assigned to the same Rio apartment as Louis Tomlinson, British gymnast and Harry's childhood crush.

I love him, Steve thinks into the spiralling ether; I love him; let me tell him. Give me the chance to set that one thing right. If I can’t rest for saving him, let me give him all of me and hope that it’s enough.
Or; Steve gets lost in the time matrix, and begs for an out. Seems confession is good for the soul—or so he hopes.

Summary
It's not a mark or a thread that distinguishes a soulmate; instead, it's a physical sensation, a bio-resonant connection—a rhythm to your breath, a cadence in your blood, the echo of an extra pulse inside your chest that proves your heart's not quite beating by itself, anymore; that it was always waiting for a matching set of notes to make a melody, and now it's singing, now it's soaring. Now you're whole.
But when what you've got is a pair of tricky lungs, faulty blood, and a bum ticker, it doesn't matter how strong your soul is: the harmony will barely rise above a whisper, the resonance will almost always strike too weak. So it's no one's fault, really, if a person misses the fact that his soulmate's standing right in front of him.
It's no one's fault if it takes the better part of a century to finally see.

Summary
A year after the Winter Soldier failed his mission in DC, Bucky Barnes is doing his best to stay under the radar from both Hydra and Steve Rogers. His hope for a peaceful day-to-day life in limbo goes awry, however, when he meets Queens’ newest hero; a pure-hearted kid with a death wish and a ridiculous pair of red and blue pajamas.
The last thing Steve expects when he finally tracks Bucky down is that, not only has the man been living in Queens all this time, right under his nose, but also that, in the two years since they last saw each other, Bucky somehow acquired a kid.
Alternatively: How Peter Parker effectively fucks over Bucky Barnes, and also totally saves him.
