Summary
Lucy floated backwards alongside J-Bone through the aisle, his legs trailing lazily in front of him. “Oh, they won’t,” he sounded overly confident in an almost ominous manner, his expression one of leisure. Though J-Bone could, even in his altered state, recognize it as pretentious beguiling. “Besides, they’re not my real dads, you know. I’m not a kid. I can do what I want.” Granted, he was only sixteen years old, but then that was practically an adult. “I can smoke weed if I want to.”
OR
Lucy’s coping with the pressures of growing up the Antichrist manifests into a strange crush on J-Bone?

Fandoms: Luca (2021)
14 Aug 2024

Summary
Alberto scoffed and waved the concern away with a hand, laughing like he wasn’t on the verge of sleep deprivation’s worst consequence. “What’s a few hours of sleep to an undergraduate?”
Signor Paguro appraised him dryly. “The messiah?”
“Nothing can save me now, professore.”
OR
Alberto Scorfano somehow lands a scholarship at Genoa’s top university for his dazzling skill in artwork. Everyone knows that a scholarship that doesn’t even begin to cover tuition or housing costs is worth the commitment. But what’s even more dazzling is his remarkably lackluster performance in general education courses. All he really wants to do is run away from his problems and make art—which is definitely not conducive to becoming a contributing member of society. Enter one Luca Paguro: the stone-faced professor tasked with tutoring him every Wednesday and putting up with his bullshit. It probably won’t affect anything that he actually cannot fucking stand Alberto.

Summary
“Jasmines are known to symbolize beauty, and—more notoriously—sensuality. The scent is quite potent, but the flower only blooms at night, meaning it can also symbolize modesty.”
“So which is it? Sensuality or modesty?”
“That’s entirely up to you, caro.”
OR
Luca is back in Tuscany for the summer. Instead of studying for next year’s upcoming exams, he’s more interested in seducing Alberto Scorfano: the pure-hearted village florist of which he is passionately in love with. Despite the risks, figurative (and literal!) pain, Luca is determined. By lingering around the flower shoppe in his little white cutoff shorts, he believes that this summer, he just might pull it off.

Fandoms: The Picture of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde
31 Oct 2023
Tags
Summary
“My dear Basil,” Dorian works to keep his laughter a secret, moving back into his pose in order to temporarily distract himself. “You say that like it is such a dirty word. I have not met any man that has displeased me yet. Don’t you consider yourself a man? Or have I been wrong this whole time?”
Or, Dorian subtly fucks with Basil. Basil is too stupid and horny to realize it.

Summary
It wasn’t that he was nervous. Luca was just like a machine; he had programmed himself for different protocols. Boys were prototypes, and Luca had logged each version with its own cheat code.
(And sometimes, by nature, machines malfunction.)
So, no. While Alberto wasn’t prototype A, or B nor prototype C, Luca hadn’t just comforted his friend with the universal subject changer of, “Do you want me to suck your dick?”
Or,All Luca wants is Alberto. Alberto doesn’t want anything to do with Luca. Story of his life.

Summary
The first time Héctor left, Imelda had been sure he'd come back. The second time he leaves, she's certain he won't.
With no way of knowing his picture would be placed on the ofrenda, Héctor says his goodbyes and disappears rather than burden his family as he withers away. Which is fine, Imelda tells herself. Just fine. Until somehow she finds herself at the bank of the river, staring into Shantytown, determined to find her husband and bring him home.

Just How Wonderful You Are by KannaOphelia for Caro Dee (Caro_Dee)
Fandoms: Calamity Jane (1953)
23 Aug 2020
Tags
Summary
The first time Calamity Jane ever thought about kissing someone was when she saw Adelaid Adams dancing and singing in front of her dressing room mirror.
She didn't think of kissing at first, naturally. She had to deal with the feeling she had been thrown from a bolting horse first, something she hadn't experienced since she was four years old. The feeling of flying and plummeting, taking split seconds and at the same time almost an eternity. The impact sending her breath and thought far away, until there was only shaken bones and a splitting head, and one coherent thought:
She's the most beautiful thing I ever seen.
Katie and Calam spend the night in a hotel while waiting for the Deadwood Stage, and things unfold a little differently.

Summary
Don and Kathy would move in together. They would have a dog or two and then inevitably, a small parade of adorable little brats who would call him Uncle Cosmo, and they would spend less and less time with him, not on purpose but busy with the rest of their lives, and ultimately Cosmo would learn to make his peace with it because he’d have no other choice and he would have to try to move on and not live too much in his memories. He could picture it so clearly, he figured if the songwriting gig with Monumental didn’t pan out, he could always return to the backwater circuit with a new act: The Amazing Cosmo of the Cosmos—ladies and gentlemen, he sees the future, he reads the stars, he silently pines for his best married pal and all the while tap dancing!
Don and Kathy inviting him along on their honeymoon, though—that part was a surprise.
