    Summary

    Attending a professional heroics conference is nerve-wracking enough without the...interesting...stress reaction Izuku has been having lately.

    It's okay, though! He's a master of self-control. By which he means, shoving everything so deep inside that it definitely will not ruin anything at all.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    “You sure you’re feeling normal?” Kacchan asks.

    Izuku blinks, swallowing thickly. He considers the question, lets it sag with its full weight in his head. “Yes,” he admits, sheepish. Kacchan’s hand lights down on his cheek, barely a brush, and Izuku’s head goes foggy again. The world is underwater for a moment, swimming past him with shimmering scales. Kacchan’s hot palm, curving over his skin. It feels good. He likes it when it feels good.

    Summary

    I feel like he truly only likes me for my ass, Shane thinks. But thankfully, there’s just enough of his brain-to-mouth filter still working well enough to translate that to, “I feel like she truly only likes me for my dick. But maybe I wanna cuddle after or some shit. Is that a crime?”

    “Absolutely not, Hollander. You should get all the cuddles you want after a good fuck.” Cliff raises his glass and winks.

    He can't believe he's really just talking to Rozanov’s teammate and friend about him. Not that he knows it’s about Rozanov, but still. 

    Shane's never having vodka ever again. But for now, he’ll let it lower his inhibitions—if only to get all of this off his chest. Maybe then it’d stop fucking aching.

    shane strikes up an unlikely friendship with cliff marleau after he walks out of ilya’s penthouse suite in vegas feeling worthless. it’s all fairly innocent at first, until a threesome with shane and a woman awakens something in cliff that he’s never even thought about before. he confides in ilya without revealing who his secret gay awakening was, but ilya connects the dots anyway and goes on a jealous rampage before finally confronting his feelings for shane.

    Summary

    “Hello,” Ilya repeats, still kind of stuck on those freckles.

    “Hi?” the man says.

    “Hi,” Ilya says—again.

    Oh god, he's said hello three times now. He should literally say anything else. His name, probably. His phone number, preferably.

    “Hi,” Ilya says again, because he can’t help it. “I am—”

    “Are you Nick?” the man asks, and it comes out as a breathless sound.

    OR: Shane gets stood up on a blind date, and Ilya comes to the rescue, and proceeds to make a series of questionable decisions.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    “I’m hyping you up!” Harris explains. “Like we planned.”

    “You are hyping up Nick!” Ilya groans. “Shane will now think Nick is puppy saviour. I am the puppy saviour, Harris! I rescued Bark Ruffalo from the bathtub.”

    - Romcom heaven, so fucking funny all the way through.
