Rhinestones That Shine by Zen_monk

Summary
Fatigue and injury settled in Kain's bones long before he found Tifa. Fatigue and injury rested in his being, which got dredged up and disturbed, given names and forms, when Tifa made him sit down for just a hot second because for Cosmos' sake Kain, you're going to fall over like a fainting goat at this rate! So let her teach the virtues of self-care and of faith, for fighting those mirrored likenesses of yourself has leeched you from all of your being, and risk making you as hollow and dull as those manikins that you so despised and feared.
So why is it that manikins look so much larger than life than the real things? Each one mirrors the face of treachery, and each one mirrors the shock of those victims when the lance has pierced them through and shattered. If she keeps stripping you of your armor to treat you, will she see the loose sand that counts as filling not so unlike a doll?

"I've looked in a mirror most every day of my life. I know I'm a good man," he says quickly, forestalling her objection, "or I try to be; but I know what good-looking is, and I know I ain't it. Especially not today."

Summary
"I would never pretend with you. I swear it, Bennet. You don't pretend with me," Bella points out. "You never have." There is a softness in her expression; is she remembering the once he paid Susan for her time, and then asked her forbearance to simply sit with him a while?
Since then, he hasn't come to Long Susan's with money. Only with flowers, or a sweet, or such small courting gifts as he can afford. It feels wrong to think of hiring her time piecemeal when he has asked her to grant it to him freely.

Summary
Three weeks after the Winter Soldier surrenders, Bucky still isn't any better than he was the first day.
This is my first time writing anything this long- and the A/B/O is kind of an undertone- ish. It shouldn't be too overbearing.
So, in this universe, there's no homophobia in the sense of male/male or female/female couples, but because Steve became an alpha after the serum, his and Bucky's early relationship would be considered lesbian. In the 40's. yikes.Series

Summary
The one who was mentally Hajime reacted first, his teeth clenching in shock— Nagito realised that must be how he looks when he gets frustrated— and grabbed Nagito from the front of the shirt— Hajime’s shirt, but not Hajime’s at the same time—, pulling him forward with a strength the other had no idea he had.
In truth, Nagito would have laughed at his own pitiful expression and irate tone, but since it was Hajime who was orchestrating them, it really wasn't that amusing at all.
”What the Hell are you doing in my body?!”

Title inspired by Closure in Moscow.

“I know I like you more than you like me,” he lets out a sigh, wet, trembling, and heartbroken. “It’s okay, though. I don’t mind as long as you like me enough to be with me,” Izuku’s fists close around Katsuki’s shirt. “I love you so much, Kacchan,” he rubs his face against Katsuki’s chest, tears dampening the fabric, “So much.”

Summary
Tony sits in relative darkness, the TV on mute, Friday running searches like she has been every day for the past month. A month, since Quentin Beck’s grand plan crumpled underneath him on that bridge. A month, since a flash of light was able to distract Peter just as he was about to bring Beck down. A month, since Beck snatched him, since both of them disappeared. An entire. Month.
I’ll keep you updated. I promise.
I love you, kid. Rhodey’s on his way, alright? He’s coming. He’s gonna go as fast as he can.
I love you too. I’ll be okay. I promise. I can do this.
The last thing Tony heard Peter say.
Rhodey, Happy and Fury traversed the London landscape immediately afterwards. They found the glasses, but not Spider-Man. There was footage enough to incriminate Beck for what he was, but somehow, nobody was able to get a shot of when he grabbed Peter. Peter was knocking him around, looked like he was getting the upper hand, and then that flash of light.
Gone. Gone.

Summary
Peter has no trouble getting pregnant, but can't carry the baby to term. He doesn't want Drax, who's lost his family before, to know he keeps losing their baby, but Drax finds out anyway...and that's when the trouble starts. Mpreg (and lots of it), Quill/Drax established relationship, slight hints of Groot/Rocket, angst with a side of fluff, rated M for safety.
