Summary
The day that Dean Winchester would pick up a book and read it cover to cover would be the day that hell would freeze over. He’s said it once and he’ll keep repeating it until it finally sinks into Sam’s and anyone else who’ll try and persuade him to read, thick heads.
Except, today is that day. Here’s how Dean finds himself lounging on his and Sammy’s threadbare couch in just a pair of ripped jeans, staring at the daunting paperback in front of him. He would do it. Cas was counting on him. Castiel had been blackmailed by their teacher into helping Dean complete his essay on the damn novel. -

Summary
So, like, think about this: Rick is going to be so protective of Judith when she gets older; she's so precious to him. The last link, besides his wedding ring he can never seem to remove for very long, to Lori. She's been taken from him, and he will never experience that pain again.
"That night when Judith is in bed, Rick and Daryl stand in their doorway, as they've done practically every night since they’d come to Alexandria, the safe haven that is still too good to be true. Daryl is framed by the gas porch light shining behind his head like the warm rays of the sunshine in the darkness. Before he can stop himself Rick is leaning forwards, crowding Daryl against the doorjamb, pressing their bodies together; toe to chest."

Unfortunately, it intrigues Gabriel and he makes a play to educate him in the way of Alternative Lifestyles.
He introduces him to his Kept, the vivacious Taemin. He quickly learns he's a mini-Gabriel, not human and all. Although, what he is remains a mystery.
Against his better judgement he goes with it. His biggest fear is Dean finding out. On top of that, he and Dean are working a missing persons case, that may or may not involve witches.

Jaytim week prompts: confession, photography, and redemption
"So the ends justify the means,” murmurs Tim picking conclusions from Jason’s words with deadly precision. “You’re a sterner man than I thought, Father Todd. And yet.” Tim’s shutter clicks again. “You’re a person who does things in spades, Father. It isn’t a stretch to say that you’re someone motivated by passion. So. Why a religion you doubt?”

Kunikida miro a Dazai con una pequeña sonrisa en sus labios y ojos somnolientos, y el castaño creyó escuchar otro Click.
— “… cuando estés enamorado.”
Click
Mierda.
Dazai se mordió el labio inferior mientras apartaba la mirada de su compañero. Cuando dijo que se veía apuesto, no quería decir que gritara la palabra “apuesto” cuando veía su cara.
Dazai es rápido en muchos aspectos y en otros, es un fiasco.

When a bubbly, green haired man makes his awkward and cringe worthy debut into his life, Mark Fischbach doesn't expect much to come from their peculiar friendship. Just two college attending dudes being bros, right?
But after several late night calls regarding a book, and multiple invitations to holiday events between the two, Mark is starting to have a hard time denying the fact that Sean, or Jack as he likes to be called, hasn't been acting the same. And it's making Mark's heart thump like crazy and his brain go blank. And he kind of likes it.

Summary
War is difficult and traumatic. People die. People sacrifice. People get back up and put themselves back together when it's over. Harry isn't putting himself back together. He's been through a lot, and he's always been able to make it to the other side, but this was just too much.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard it is, Harry has to learn to heal at his own pace. There is no escaping the fact that he's participating in life (no matter how weakly at times), and cannot therefore just leave events to run him over. He's got to learn how to live and to deal with relationships again — all of them — because his adoptive family and his friends (but most especially his best friends) aren't leaving. And there's always room for more.

Her life was in complete fucking shambles and she’d be going from working at the homeless shelter in the morning to working at the bar at night for the foreseeable future, but she could make this -
“Sister Beatrice will be the one monitoring your attendance and effort, informing us of your compliance with the required fulfillment of your service.”
Oh good, more fucking nuns. She made some very inappropriate gestures the last time she saw a nun. Granted, Frances probably didn’t know what they meant, but it sure made her feel better.
Ava can see it now, Sister Beatrice is probably some old hag who sucks on lemon candy and smells like feet. She’s going to hate Ava the moment she sees her.
This is going to suck.

“We created it. But, biologically, it’s identical to any other. I have the same need for sleep, food, water.”
“Created it, huh?” Ava leaned a shoulder against the doorframe. “Based on what?”
“Input from our limited data on earth. We developed a cache of features and arranged them.”
“Ah, like create a Sim.” Ava nodded. At Beatrice’s blank look, she said, “It’s an earth game. We’ll play sometime. And, um, you know. You guys did a great job. At arranging.”
“Thank you.” Beatrice blinked. “It was designed to be aesthetically pleasing.”
“So you’re hot on purpose.” She blew out a long breath. “Honestly, thank God. That’s kind of relieving. I was worried I was—”

Beatrice is an alien researcher looking for information on earth. Ava, as it turns out, has a lot to teach her.

Summary
"And what did you make of Dr. Smartypants? Quite a way with words, don't you think?"
"He's something," Steve hedged. "Was hoping you could shed some light."
"Where would be the fun in that?" Natasha chuckled. "Have I ever sent you on a wild goose chase?"
He sighed again, heavily. "No."
"Have I ever failed to have your back?"
Steve grunted at the irony. She'd been assigned to his detail just after he'd thawed out. The word he'd use to describe that time would be 'suffocating'. But then somehow, over the years, the chokehold had become an embrace. "What kind of minefield am I walking into here? Can you at least tell me that?"
As always, Natasha heard what he didn't ask her. "No. But I think you should let him fill you in on the rest himself. He is a historian, after all. Don't want to steal all of his thunder."
Steve laughed despite himself. "So you think I should do this?"
"I think it's been a long time since you've had a real adventure." Steve would have rolled his eyes at her mom-ing him if it wasn't, well, the truth.
Or: Steve receives a letter from Dr. J.B. Barnes, Brooklyn Historical Society. Except not quite that J.B. Barnes.

Summary
Steve Rogers has more money than he knows what to do with, a gorgeous penthouse apartment, and two beautiful girls who have terrorised every previous nanny into resignation. Bucky Barnes is an accomplished sex worker with a mountain of ill-advised debt, who just so happens to have helped raise his four sisters alongside his mother.
It's a common mistake to make, thinking the beautiful man at your door is the new nanny for your twin girls and not an escort hired by your friend to keep you company for the night.
Right?

Bookmarker's Notes
AAAAAAAAAAAAAH I really, really rEALLY LIKE THIS FIC--no, I love it! I like how Nora isn't crafted like a typical otome game protagonist. The pacing of the book is alright, and I love how the author managed to show both sides of the stories, (with the boys and with jk/nora). Okay, I didn't cry and I think I deserve a refund but hey, keep the money, I genuinely liked the fic <3
If you want a fic that is somewhat lengthy (although, length is quite relative), you love yourself some Jungkook and also love the idea of soul searching, I think you'll like this fic very much.

Summary
Everybody knows that Louis has never been one for serious boyfriends. His reputation around campus precedes him, which is why he doesn't think twice before proudly telling his mother about his new and completely fabricated relationship with his oddly quiet and completely gorgeous new roommate Harry to shut her up about his lack of commitment. It's the perfect lie; a flawless plan, or at least it was until Louis' ordered to bring his fabulous new boyfriend home.
