Tormada's Toys by tigerlady (shetiger)
Fandom: See (TV 2019), Pairing: The Military | Trivantian Triumvir/Tormada
Summary: A very AU take on the TV series See, which starred Jason Momoa. These stories focus on a kinky relationship between Tormada (played by David Hewlett) and 'The Military' (played by Joe Flannigan), who I've named Jaunquin. Stories in this series aren't related to each other in continuity - just in their kinky theme.
Anyone is welcome to create in this universe, as long as you keep the name Jaunquin for the Military.
You're Almost Home by LeifLitter
Fandom: Saltburn (2023), Pairing: Felix Catton/Oliver Quick
Summary: “Sorry I'm late, don, got a little carried away returning to these halls- always was a maze! Sir Felix Ca-ahh.”
He'd lunged forward with a hand outstretched, ready to shake as the professor had straightened up. He turned in his chair lazily, freezing Felix in an awkward, half-bent position with those chilly blue eyes. There was a long moment as Oliver Quick observed him, no expression on his face, before a small smile made his mouth twitch. “It's good to see you, Felix. You look well.”
Felix Catton is a happily married father of three teenagers, approaching 40, and he hasn't seen Oliver since his unfortunate overdose... Everything should be perfect. Everything is perfect.
Until Felix's oldest daughter wants him to smooth things over with her tutor- and he finds himself face-to-face with Professor Oliver Quick. He's older. Wiser. Sensible. He doesn't lie any more.
And so what harm could reconnecting with an old friend do?
Sorry, Lu, but Ollie and I have this very sudden and intense psychosexual thing going on, and if I don't explore it I might go absolutely out of my mind, start clawing at the walls. You understand, don't you, Darling?
Weep Not For The Memories by torakowalski
Fandom: Blood-Smoke Series - Tanya Huff, Pairing: Tony Foster/Lee Nicholas
Summary: Tony waved a hand at him, a hurry up motion. "Start with why you thought I'd, um, be there this morning." He blushed, which was distractingly attractive.
"Because you usually are," Lee said. "You were there when I went to sleep last night and we said we'd drive in together this morning. Remember?"
"No." Tony shook his head, eyes wide. "And you think I'm usually there, because you think, um…?"
"We're together," Lee said. "Obviously."
Tony just stared at him. "No," he said, voice somehow cracking in the middle of a two letter word. "We're not."

Later, he's sitting in a cafe and venting to a word document when a creep invades his personal space. He should exit stage right immediately, but the stranger is giving him incredible feedback on Jongwoo's rough draft. He's never felt so powerful and eloquent in life.
Jongwoo never moves into the Eden Residence. Instead, Moonjo finds him early and decides to keep the budding novelist all to himself and support him. Creativity like his shouldn't be wasted in an office. Also, Moonjo finds a specific kind of joy in testing the accuracy of Jongwoo's more gruesome murder scenes.
