Worth the blood we draw

by petroltogo

"They are hired to protect the Stark heir. They get the first offer to kill him instead half an hour later."James Barnes and Natasha Romanov are skilled assassins. Hired to keep Tony Stark, the sole heir of his father's empire, safe, the last thing they expect is how much they may come to care for him during the course of their assignment. Their hands may be covered in blood but even monsters deserve a happy ending once in a while, don't they?

Its Not Kidnapping If

by petroltogo

"It starts with one of Tony’s spur-of-the-moment decisions that always end up being either phenomenal or catastrophic, and never anything in between."In which the world is broken, the Avengers are falling apart, kidnappings are not the worst way to spend your Saturday afternoon, and somehow, between Tony and Brock, the tab is always payed.

Baby, I'm howling for you

by chronosaurus (kimnamjin)

Felix’s boyfriend is weird.Not like...socially weird. Or romantically weird.He's just the…‘I'm dating a dog-boy’ brand of weird. Let him reiterate:Felix’s boyfriend, Chan, is a werewolf. So he's kinda wolf-weird, as Felix has long since learned. But he’s acclimated to it, all of Chan’s canine quirks and his uncanny ability to sniff out exactly what the neighbors three houses down are cooking for dinner each night. So, yeah, Chan’s a weird little wolf boy. But Felix loves him, loves his heart and his mind and how he always implores Felix to scratch just behind his ears before they go to sleep. Yet there's some moments in their relationship that still throw Felix for a loop.And those mostly come in the form of Chan's monthly wolf transformations.  Or: Felix and Chan spend a romantic, only slightly weird night together during a full moon.

The Wildest Spirit, Tame

by a_gay_poster

Lee turned his head and squinted his eyes shut, and the squirrel on his shoulder raised up on its hindquarters to touch noses with him. Kankuro’s lips widened into a grimace. “Is this … normal in Konoha?” “Nothing Lee does is normal,” Tenten replied with a matching expression.Or, five times Lee tamed a wild creature and one time a wild creature tamed him.

Kill Me Gently (But Don't You Dare Get Up And Leave)

by petroltogo

"Starborns are not touched by death the way most living beings are. It comes at the price of a fascination with death—and those who cause it." Tony doesn’t know how to stay dead. The Asset doesn’t know how not to kill. They meet somewhere in the middle. Who said murder is a bad basis for a relationship?

secret first love

by alicemitch09

"You're gonna marry me when we grow up, right?" an eager 6-year old Bakugou Katsuki asked Midoriya Izuku, who stared at her ring flower with big sparkly eyes. Her eyes were big, kind of like a doe, sparkly too, like diamonds (how would he know, he has no idea what the heck diamonds looked like), and the smile plastered on her face was far too big, too much for 6-year old Bakugou Katsuki's heart.He couldn't remember her response then, but he never forgot about it.Even after all these years.Even after he found out that she was quirkless.Even after he found out what an awesome quirk he had.Even after throwing her away and branding her as Deku.Even after all the horrible things he did and said to her.Many years later, Bakugou Katsuki never forgot that one question.But that was then.
