Summary
Henry’s at a local Hispanic Heritage Month event browsing the art stalls when his gaze catches on a kid looking around with both purpose and nervousness. She’s fidgeting with the hem of her t-shirt with one hand while she bites the nails of the other one, eyes alert and searching. Lost, then.
And oh, Henry recognises her. She’s a regular at his bookstore, even at only six years old, and is there at least weekly with her dad—Alex, who she’d introduced to Henry as her papi—or various aunties and uncles, most of whom Henry doesn’t think are actually related to her. Keeping one eye on her, he lets his gaze sweep the vicinity but doesn’t see anyone else he even remotely recognises. Shit. He has to do something.
“Sirena?” he calls gently.Henry... is more than a bit useless around hot guys. So when he finds the lost kid of the gorgeous dad who frequents his bookstore, he pulls himself together until they reunite, only to then be devastated by the revelation that the man thinks Henry hates him. And, well... courage always rises, and all that.

Summary
Henry is forty-two and stuck in the same job he took at twenty-four. After a particularly ugly divorce, he’s also tremendously, depressingly single.
Alex is forty-one, works 80 hours a week as partner in a law firm and hardly speaks to his son. He’s also happily, promiscuously single.
They meet at a speed-dating event. Life happens.

Summary
There is a little magic in Henry life, he just doesn't know it.
The maid has heard all of the rumors, the palace is haunted. Some of the staff have seen apparitions, things go missing, there are sounds that can’t be explained. The chief of staff doesn’t believe in such things, the queen is older and forgetful, she takes things. They are her things, she’s the queen after all, it’s not like it’s stealing. It’s easier to keep replicas on hand, it’s not worth anyone being accused of a crime for something the queen doesn’t remember. But the maid has heard a giggle and felt something unseen brush past her leg in the hallways.

Summary
Alex confesses his love to Henry on a Tuesday.
“If you die, I don’t think I’m ever going to recover.”
“I’m sorry you feel that way.”
Alex’s jaw visibly clenches, and he thrusts the mug back into Henry’s chest. When he tilts his head up, Henry is shocked to see that his eyes are wet. “Henry, please. I won’t be able to live with myself.”
Henry places the mug down onto the counter and cautiously brings a hand up to Alex’s shoulder. He tries to ignore the way Alex shivers, or the way his eyes flutter shut for a moment.
“Alright, alright. I understand. However,” he squeezes his hand, “I’m not sure I have it in me to stop loving him.”
Alex nods, quiet, then brings a hand – slowly, so slowly – up to cup Henry’s jaw. “Same.” He searches Henry’s eyes. After a moment, Henry tips his head in a nod. He closes his eyes. He feels Alex’s hot breath against his lips. “Who?”
“Sebastian,” Henry whispers.OR, Henry is in love with someone, and it’s killing him. Alex is in love with Henry, and just wants to save him.
Some people fall in love in a day, and some take a little longer.

Summary
“Do you remember that horrid blowjob attempt?” Henry asks with a shy smile, head pressed into Pez’s chest.
He can feel Pez’s short chuckle raise his head. It sounds effervescent, even in its briefness. “You’ll have to be more specific, love. I’ve had an unfortunate run of ‘blow job attempts.’
--
Henry once attempted to give Pez a blowjob with less than wonderful results. After a night of drinking, Henry feels the urge to show that he's improved over time.- Language:

the way to a man's heart (is through his symbiote) by anincompletelist (soldouthaz)
Fandoms: Red White & Royal Blue - Casey McQuiston

Summary
Henry’s stopped catastrophizing about it or trying to logic his way around it. He might have more feelings about it when it actually happens, but Henry likes knowing that Alex has an extra layer of support and unconditional love anytime he needs it. That if for some reason Henry ever couldn’t be there, Venom would.
He also sort of likes the fact that his boyfriend’s extraterrestrial symbiote-bond thinks he’s hot. It’s not the weirdest thing that could have happened. Maybe.

Summary
The guy currently approaching the counter is an absolute smoke show. The turquoise of his hair would be bright enough on anybody, but contrasted against the man’s dark skin, it’s practically neon. He has rich, sparkling eyes and a mischievous grin, and he’s clutching something weirdly lumpy and hastily wrapped in brown paper in his well-manicured hands. Liam thinks he should have more questions about the parcel—and he probably will in a minute, given that it’s his literal job to ask them—but right now, he’s pretty focused on remembering how his knees are supposed to work.
Or, five times Pez brings in something ridiculous to post to his friend in the States, and one time Liam has to put his foot down.

Summary
Then you came home, swaggering still, like it had been nothing to parachute from your burning plane, like you hadn’t landed in enemy territory, coming within a hair’s breadth of death.
You are a miracle. My miracle.
You press your forehead to mine, and grip my face. You smile in all your glory, solid and breathing and pumping heart beneath my hand.
“You bastard,” I say.
“Thought you’d gotten rid of me, huh, Your Majesty?”

Henry was no longer interested in casual sex, dating, or a relationship.
He was most certainly not interested in any of that with Alex.

Summary
Three weeks before Henry Fox's tour for his fourth, highly anticipated, awards-bait novel A Brief War in December begins, his publicist Janella breaks her foot on a bunny slope at Windham.
Alex can't be mad at her, even though he kind of is. Saying it out loud would be like kicking her when she was down, and she already went down a literal mountain in the worst way possible.
Now crammed in Rafael Luna's corner office, Janella is shooting Alex extremely apologetic looks while slumped on her crutches, wearing a bright orange cast. The conversation about who is going to be joining Henry Fox on his multi-city trek across the U.S. is also going downhill. Alex is feeling the same sort of free fall while standing still.
Because out of all the publicists available in their tiny underfunded department, the only one left to escort their company's best-selling author is regrettably him.
The problem is, well, Alex absolutely hates Henry Fox.
Or: Alex is the publicist for Mountchristen Publishers, and is stuck on a two-week tour with their best-selling, but frustrating, author Henry Fox.

Summary
When he opens his eyes he’s no longer in Brooklyn.
To be fair, that’s the least pressing issue at the moment. Top of that list would be the absolutely excruciating pain in forearm and, oh yeah, the fact that people are shooting at him.
(Well past the age where most people have swapped bodies with their soulmate, Alex has all but given up on the idea that he might have one. But when he suddenly swaps in the middle of a rooftop chase and finds himself caught up in a deadly game of cat and mouse, he quickly discovers how far he's willing to go to save his soulmate's life.)

Never want to live (or die) without you by kiwiana

Summary
Alex Claremont-Diaz is a pretty ordinary guy with a pretty ordinary life. He has a kinda shitty corporate law job, a nice apartment, and an incredibly sexy husband. It's a good life, overall.
He's not anticipating any major changes to that life anytime soon. Major changes like, for example, eating some sketchy shellfish during a client lunch meeting and suddenly finding himself undead and with an irresistible craving for human flesh. You know. Hypothetically.

Summary
Alex thought the hardest thing he’d ever have to do was survive alone on Mars for almost two years.
Turns out finding the guy who spotted him, the guy who tracked him across the planet with precision satellites, the guy who changed his whole schedule around to Martian time so that Alex would always have someone to talk to, the guy who Alex bared his fears and hopes and soul to through emails and direct messages was harder. A lot harder.
Especially because Henry, that obtuse fucking asshole, was avoiding him.
