Summary
What harm will it do?
“Steve.” Bucky says his name like it’s a revelation. A grin spreads over his face, and he shuts the door, locking it before tossing his keys towards the small kitchen table--and misses. He comes straight at Steve, crossing the room in no time at all because their apartment is smaller than a breadbox--or at least that’s what Bucky always says, cursing every time he stubs his toe on something.
Steve watches him approach, glad he’s already sitting down because when Bucky looks at him like that his knees go weak. And when he leans in close, hands on the back of the couch on either side of Steve’s head, he forgets how to breathe. “You’re back pretty late. The dancin’ musta been good, huh?”
“Marry me.”

“Oh my god Arthur! Just let me pay!” Merlin cried in exasperation at the man sitting opposite him, holding the cheque out of his reach.
“No way, this is my treat, Merlin.” Arthur replied sweetly, taking out his wallet.
“Arthur, I haven’t paid for a single one of our dates yet! Just because I had no money back in Camelot doesn’t mean I don’t have any now, I’ve got centuries of it stored up.” Merlin argued.

Summary
For the kink meme prompt:
Arthur, has been returned from his rest in Avalon for over a year now, and he is proud to say that he seems to have adapted modern life fairly quickly. He's figured out the ins and outs of living in the 21st century and has taken time along the way to properly mourn both Camelot and Gwen.
But now? He's at the point in his new life that he's ready to start considering what he wants for his future. And the rules of modern romance aren't helpful so much as downright contradictory or confusing.
How does a former medieval king court a 1000+ year old sorcerer anyway?

Summary
Dust Lavellan is pretty happy with her life - she tends bar at The Siren's Call, sleeps with whoever she wants, and isn't responsible for anyone's life but her own. At least, until some random kid stumbles out in front of her motorcycle one afternoon. A kid with a really hot dad...
The Iron Bull never expected to be a dad, let alone a single dad with an adopted 'Vint kid, but it's pretty much the best thing that's ever happened to him. Sure his sex life is a little limited, what with raising a kid, coaching a Little League team, and working full time. Until he comes home and finds a really hot elf eating cookies on the porch with his kid...
Eleven year old Cremisius "Krem" Aclassi wants two things - his Little League team to go to the World Series, and to grow up to be a chef. Okay, three things: he'd also like his dad to stop embarrassing him in front of his new friend Dust. Why are grown ups like this?

Summary
”Merlin?”
The music around them muffled the man’s voice a bit, but to Merlin that voice was the clearest one he had heard in centuries. Merlin raised his hand to cover his mouth. His vision got a bit blurry as tears started to form in his eyes. Few managed to escape and they trickled down his pale cheeks. Merlin gasped as the man took few steps towards him. As the years had passed Merlin had seen glimpses of people he had known what felt like an eternity ago. Those glimpses had only been figments of his imagination. But this. This was way too realistic to be just that. This was a face Merlin knew by heart.
”L-Leon?”
-------------------
Based on some Immortal!Leon posts I've been seeing around. I just want some random shenanigans with Merlin and Leon through time because wHY NOT.
Also don't worry, we are gonna get some good old Arthur/Merlin stuff later in the chapters.

Summary
“Wait, wait, wait. Do you need your marriage certificate to fill for divorce?” asks a very serious Colin all suddenly.
“Yes, it’s one of the mandatory papers to present.”
“So if there’s no certificate you can not do it?” He asks for confirmation with his eyes blinking really fast.
That’s when Anthony realizes his brother brain—now full of alcohol—is paying attention in a way he normally only reserves for Penelope or food. But why is he fixating on this? And then he thinks, Oh, oh the idiot. Incredible how he’s a two times bestselling author and so gullible at the same time, but Anthony is going to have a bit of fun with this.

Wei Wuxian squints against the fluorescent lights. When his vision clears, so does the face above him, and he blinks, because... okay, wow.
"Wei Ying?"
"Yes, Doctor, my name is Wei Ying. And your number is?"
Jiang Cheng's voice comes from somewhere in the room. "Oh my fucking God."
Or that ridiculous AU where a ridiculous man hits on his ridiculously hot doctor/husband.

“Sorry, I, uh. Laundry day caught up to me before I could catch up with it. I saw this shirt left in the washer a few days ago, and—“ Wei Ying blinks up at Lan Zhan through dark eyelashes that he wants to kiss, maybe, and gives him an uncharacteristically hesitant smile. “Do you mind?”
I mind the fact that we are not married, Lan Zhan thinks.
Wei Ying keeps borrowing Lan Zhan’s clothes. It is only mildly driving him insane.
