Fill - Gen - OFC's POV

*-*-*

Carys and her friends couldn't stop ogling the raven haired god a few tables over. It was their once-a-year blow-the-budget girly-nite (TM), and they had gone to one of Cardiff's newer, fancier French restaurants. The place was so posh the menu wasn't even in English.

Across the room was a guy who looked like a movie star, a tall Tom Cruise type. He would not look out of place in an action movie, particularly with that dramaculous* coat he had been wearing when he swept in through the door. They had spent the ten minutes or so after ordering their desserts just watching the man, wondering which of the gorgeous leggy ladies he was waiting for.

And he was waiting for someone - the waiter had tried several times to take an order, and the guy kept checking his pocket watch. (A pocket watch, for heaven's sake!)

Eventually the dark haired god of gorgeousness took out his phone and was texting someone, when the doors opened and a tall, fair-haired, familiar man came in. It was driving Carys nuts how familiar the guy looked, when suddenly it clicked. The guy was her mate Rhiannon's brother.

And the raven haired man was smiling widely, clasping his hand. He must be Ianto's boss or something Carys thought, wondering if Ianto was single after things hadn't worked out in London. He was very good-looking -- and he was very definitely kissing the dark haired man. The dark haired man's hand was wandering quite a ways south, too. Ianto must have a good arse.

"I never knew he was gay!" Carys was scandalised - not that her friend's brother liked guys, but that Rhi hadn't told her. She could have set him up with her own brother, Ifor.

"It really, is true, the best ones are all gay. It's so not fair."


*-*-*

*Dramaculous is a word coined by my friend amerally about Derek Wills on Smash, whose coat is long and billowy, too. I thought it fit with Carys' thought processes here ;-)

Supernatural, Sam/Gabriel, Sam's blood kink isn't that surprising, really ... explaining the bite marks and the cuts is a bit harder

Fill: Awkward Questions.

[lady-drace.livejournal.com]

“Hey, bro. What can I do you for?” Gabriel asked cheerfully when he appeared, answering Castiel's summons.

“It's just a tiny matter, which I hoped your superior knowledge might-” he cut off his own words so abruptly Gabriel thought for a moment that he'd accidentally gagged Castiel again. That cough-drop advertizing voice did get annoying every now and then. But when he turned his head to check, Castiel was staring at his neck with mouth slowly dropping open. Oh boy. Awkward.

“Brother, are you well?” Castiel's voice was cautious, as if he was not at all sure he really wanted to know the answer. Which instantly gave Gabriel a few wicked ideas for pranks. Because it was painfully obvious that what had caught Castiel's attention was the half-healed bite mark, which Gabriel's collar clearly hadn't hidden as well as he'd thought.

“Sure, all systems go. Why do you ask?” Gabriel asked innocently.

“Your vessel isn't healing.”

“Good. I don't want it to.”

“Why not?”

Gabriel raised an eyebrow at Castiel. “Look... I get that you're still new to all these human shenanigans, so I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. Whether you're into kinky shit or not, sometimes half the fun of sex is feeling it for a while after.” He clapped Castiel on the back. “Top tip: next time you fuck Dean into the mattress, ask him the next day if he can still feel you. You're pretty much guaranteed an encore.”

“Dean and I don't-”

“If you finish that sentence with anything that might suggest that you and Mr. Porno Lips have still not consummated your disgustingly devoted eye-fuck based relationship, then so help me, I will lock you guys in a closet together until you do!”

Castiel snapped his jaw shut, and Gabriel heaved a tortured sigh. “Honestly, how are we even related...”

“I occasionally wonder the same thing,” Castiel mused, now looking at Gabriel's wrist, where the edge of a still scabbing cut just peeked out under the cuff of his shirt.

In a moment of fraternal fondness, Gabriel slung his arm over Castiel's shoulders and yanked him close. “Awww, you worried about me, bro?”

“Yes,” Castiel said, so honest it almost hurt Gabriel's ears. He really did have some work to do with this one if he still hadn't let any of Dean's nuances rub off on him yet.

“Well, don't be. Sammy is a kinky fuck, but so am I, so it's all good!” Castiel looked unconvinced, but Gabriel felt this topic had gone on for quite long enough. So he smacked Castiel on the ass, just for the spectacular bitch face it got him, and started hinting heavily that he'd tell Dean a few things Castiel might not want him to know, unless they got back to why they were even there. Gabriel totally didn't laugh when Castiel tripped over himself to change the subject. Except, he totally did.

The New Couple - Rated G

[rebak1tten.livejournal.com]

(Oops - didn't write "to the Team" just part of the team.)

“Whatcha got, Abs?” Gibbs says as he enters the lab, responding to Abby’s summons.

“Hi, Gibbs! Thanks for coming down, that was fast,” she responds, kissing his cheek. “Sit down, we want to talk for a minute.”

Gibbs looks from the perky forensic scientist to his normally up-beat lead agent. And then to the quiet FBI agent standing between them.

“You remember Spencer Reid, right, Boss?” Tony asks. “From the case a little while ago?” Gibbs nods. Of course he remembers Reid; they had worked with the BAU team a few months ago. Although Gibbs doesn’t like partnering with anyone, the case turned out well, and the murderer was caught and is currently biding his time, awaiting trial.

“We’re moving in together. All of us. Together. ” Abby nods at the two men standing with her and looks back to Gibbs.

He’s not sure why he needs to be told; they’re adults, they can have whatever living arrangements they want. Although he’s a little surprised, since Abby and Tony are a little past the age for having a roommate. And he would have thought the next time Tony moved in with someone it would be a girl friend – or boyfriend, now that he’s finally acknowledged he’s bisexual and… Oh.

“So, the three of you? All together? That works?”
Reid is looking down and Tony looks like he wants to run.

Abby nods happily, taking the hands of the two men with her. “Yes, together like a family. We’re not all together-together, because I love Tony, but like a brother that I really, really care about and he feels the same about me. And Spencer loves me and I love Spencer and he and Tony love each other and it all really works. We’re a family.”

Gibbs looks back and forth and they’re all looking at him like he should say something. He looks at Reid and says, “Basically, this is that you couldn’t choose?”

Reid looks him straight in the eyes and says, “I did choose. We all chose each other.”

Avengers movieverse, (Loki/)Clint + team,



you can't hold me down
'cause I belong to the hurricane
it's gonna blow us all away

[danse-amore.livejournal.com]

Natasha understands part of it. She understands what it's like to remember being something you've never been. She understands being used, and the strange sense of belonging that gave you, no matter what use it was that you'd been put to. He'd been undone and remade into something cleaner, something more efficient. Colder, maybe, but more full. A weapon, a purpose.

The thing that the team can't understand, not even Natasha, is that it wasn't the tesseract that wiped him clean and tempered him razor sharp. It was Loki himself.

Natasha understands the hatred all too well, the itch he has to put an arrow through Loki's eye. When he closes his eyes, he sees Loki stare at him from above the gag of Asgardian metal Thor had secured over his mouth. When he closes his eyes, sometimes the veins in his eyelids are green and blue and gold, and shivers run up and down his spine. When he closes his eyes, he aches for the knowledge he was given and then lost, for the feeling of knowing exactly why he is what he is, for the snakelike twine of Loki's mind around his heart.

Fury leaves them all alone while New York rebuilds itself, and the others go back to their homes and their lives. Natasha and himself, well. There's not much there to go back to. They take a vacation in Hawaii, one of the few places on earth that neither of them have memories stained in blood. They drink, but never enough to get drunk. He's never seen Natasha drunk, and he's watched her knock back shots of vodka for hours. They eat too much fish. They win some money - himself at darts, Natasha at cards - and then test each other to see who can get it back into the pockets of the people they won it from without the mark noticing.

But after a week or two, boredom sets in. Loki was a liar and a murderer and a monster, but sometimes, the very, very bad times, when Natasha has to wake him with a slap hard enough to break a lesser man's jaw, Clint thinks he was right. He doesn't know what to do with all this freedom.

So when Fury calls them, he's ready to go within exactly two and a half minutes. He looks at Natasha and she shakes her head and he tries to look relieved, not disappointed. Not Loki. Alien, not god. Ugly, shifting, sickly pale things with too many eyes that it takes them maybe seven hours in total to send packing. After debriefing, Tony stops them from leaving.

"Hey," he says, "C'mon, there's something I want to show you."

"Something" turned out to be Avengers Tower, the things that Tony had turned his eyesore of a business complex into. And it's...

...Well, it's pretty much the greatest birthday present he's ever gotten.

Tony claims not to have known it was his birthday, but he exchanges looks with Natasha that say otherwise. The top room is for Clint. The sweeping balcony that used to be Tony's personal changing station has been converted to a sleeping-nest, open to the stars (unless Clint doesn't want it to be, in which case there's a button he can press. With Tony, there's always a button he can press).

It's not until he notices the dent in the floor that he realizes the other significance this room has. Rather than fixing it, Tony polished it up. This is where the Hulk (Clint can't quite make himself think of The Other Guy as Bruce) slammed Loki into the floor, repeatedly.

This is where they won.

Clint runs his fingers over the smashed marble and swallows hard.

Hawaii Five-0, Steve/Danny, Steve tells Danny that he wants to change the 'vanilla' relationship to a D/s relationship. Danny thought that Steve meant that he wanted to be the Dom but is surprised to hear that Steve wants to his sub.

[lasairfhiona.livejournal.com]

Steve walked out and sat a six pack of Longboards in the sand next to Danny's lounger.

"Hey. Perfect timing. I was just going to come in for a cold beer."

Steve grabbed a bottle and handed it to Danny before grabbing one for himself and taking a long drink. "Danny... I uh... "

"What's wrong?"

"I need to talk to you about something," Steve finally blurted out before taking another long pull on his beer.

'What? Are you okay? Gracie?" Danny asked starting to panic.

Steve grabbed Danny's hands to keep him focused. "I'm fine. Grace is fine," he assured his lover. "This is about us."

"What about us?"

He knew he was adding undue stress on Danny but there was no easy way to say what he needed to tell, ask, him. Dropping Danny's hands, he drained the last of his beer, liquid courage and a minute more to think. Setting aside his empty, he took Danny's hands again and took a deep breath. "I love you. I love being with you. But..."

"But what?" Danny asked interrupting.

"I need something more," Steve admitted.

"What? What do you need? Are you trying to tell me you want to add someone to our relationship or that you want to go fuck some woman?" Danny accused, jumping to the wrong conclusion.

"If it were only that easy," Steve said under his breath but a little to loud and it set Danny off again.

"How is that easy?"

"Danny shut up and listen," Steve ordered and when Danny was once again calmish, he continued. "I want us to have a Dom/sub relationship in the bedroom."

Danny tried and failed several times to ask a question and failed finally blurting out, "So you want me to sub for you?"

"No."

"No? Then what?" Danny interrupted again.

"I want you to be the Dominate," Steve admitted quietly, unsure how Danny would take

"Say that again?" Danny asked.

"I want you to be the Dominate. I'm in charge all the time. I need to be able to not be in charge some place. And to have someone I trust to take that control. I trust you with my life and I would like you to take that role."

He knew Danny didn't know what to say by the way he kept opening and closing his mouth with no words forthcoming.

"I don't know. I don't know how..." Danny finally said.

"We'll learn together, one step at a time," Steve told him, leaning in to give Danny a gentle kiss.

any, any/any, finding out your lover would protect a monster if he just loved it enough

1/3: Marvel movies, OC + Steve

[tigriswolf]

Tate's known the whole time that Steve Reynolds is Steve Rogers is Captain America. It was kinda obvious after the whole alien invasion thing, even though she'd been flirting with him the entire week leading up to that. And while no official announcement was released after the invaders were beaten back, Captain America's face was out there.

But Steve Reynolds carries himself differently than Captain America. He goes on business trips a lot and comes back a little tired but not injured as far as Tate can tell.

They're not that series, her and Steve Reynolds. They can't be since he's never told her he's Steve Rogers, Captain America. Fuck, she had such a crush on him as a girl. But she's a woman now, working her way through grad school for architecture, and they talk about art, a lot, about sketching and various mediums and which greats are just bullshit as opposed to actually deserving the title.

It's fun, what they have.

But the helicarriers just sank into the river, and DC is on fire, and everyone saw Captain America get arrested (Steve Rogers, he was dressed like Steve Rogers, where was his suit, where was his team?) and some guy with a metal arm, and it's all just --

She goes through the information released onto the internet as best she can, but not a lot makes sense. Steve doesn't answer her texts or her increasingly frantic calls.

Finally, she just decides to drive to DC; work's cancelled anyway, and so is school for the week. Everything's chaos. She knows Steve Reynolds' address, and while it might not be where Steve Rogers actually lives, it'll do in a pinch.

Tate knocks on the door, first. There’s no answer. She glances back down at the hall, biting her lip. It’s ridiculous, what she’s thinking – but she’s already here. She’s come this far. And Monica had taken the time to teach her…

She’ll never tell anyone, but Tate Edison picks the lock on the door to Captain America’s apartment. She’s a little proud of it for about three seconds – and then there’s a metal hand clamped around her throat, a metal arm pinning her to the wall, and the most terrifying person she’s ever seen glaring at her.

The guy with the metal arm who tore up DC is in Steve’s apartment.

“Who are you?” he asks, and his voice is entirely too soft for the pure strength in his body. The hand loosens but the arm remains firm.

She say, “T—Tate. I’m here to make sure Steve’s okay. Oh, fuck, please don’t kill me.”

There is no expression on his face but he unclamps his fingers, lowers his arm. She sags back against the wall. She doesn’t go for her phone or move at all, watching him back away, hands at his side. His clothes look like he pulled them out of a dumpster, his hair is utterly disgusting, but he moves so silently it’s absolutely mind-numbingly terrifying, and his gaze never leaves her. There’s nothing in that gaze, like no one’s home in his head, but the way he fought –

She doesn’t beg. He’ll kill her or he won’t.

Tate blinks and he’s just gone. Out the window, she assumes, when she can think through the fear and sheer relief that she’s alive.

She slides down the wall, wrapping her arms around her knees, and just breathes.
