Those smiles. Those words. The thoughts reached out to him.
His fingers started tightening against the cold stone ledge.
Her face. Her presence. Her existence.
"Thank you", he heard whispered.

Summary
Post-Thor, canon-divergence. Loki doesn't survive his fall from the Bifrost and winds up reincarnated on Midgard as a mortal magician named Lucy with no memory of her previous life. Her decision-making skills have not been much improved by the transformation.
_____
“Do I even want to know why you think I’m your missing brother?”“The similarities are startling,” Thor managed. She looked pointedly down at her chest, then back at him, her lips pursing. He knew the look in her eyes, the set of her mouth, the tension in her jaw. Oh, how he knew that sharp, angry, hard face. He could practically hear Loki hissing “You idiot” in his ear.
“You deny it, then?” Hogun asked.
“Seriously?” Lucy’s left eye twitched slightly. “I have at no point in the last thirty years seen or experienced anything that would lead me to think I’m a dude, an alien, a god, or any combination thereof. So yeah, I’m going to have to go with denying it.”

Bookmarker's Notes
This author has the use of absurdum down to an art form that, quite frankly, I am hella jealous about. Absolutely hilarious and walks the wire of hilarity and solemnity while balancing the plot pole with a grace tightrope walkers WISH they could emulate.
This is 300k+ of almost no canon events occuring and not only did I not notice it, I still want more.

Summary
David: My mind is immediately filled with images of Olly in Majorca. Charlie has invited OLLY. To stay with us. In our villa. Sauntering around in our villa in his short pizza slice swimming trunks. Thighs on show. Curly hair slicked back with seawater. In my vision, he is slow-motion walking towards me like fucking Pamela Anderson. I cannot.
Charlie invites his little brother to the annual Nelson Majorca Vacay to allow the hardworking student to recharge. Of course, no one knows that the two men have been seeing each other for the past few months. It should be fine. They’ve kept it under wraps for this long... a few more weeks shouldn’t be a problem, right? Right?

Olly definitely doesn't have any feelings for David. None. That's why he's NOT spiraling at Charlie's birthday party and NOT feeling all the angsty feelings.

It should have been easy. Go back in time, restore his soul and avoid to make the same mistakes again. He should kill the traitor while he is at it. After all, Snape's betrayal was the main reason why he died.
But is not easy to kill your favourite, and much less after you fall in love with him.

She Taught Me Patience by cadeira, Littlekp, Tee_85 (orphan_account)
Fandoms: Heartstopper (Webcomic), Heartstopper (TV)
23 Jun 2023

Summary
We had talked about her pegging me a few times before, and, well, we all try out stuff at uni, don’t we? So it wasn’t an immediate hard ‘No’ from me. Look, all I’m saying is my little brother doesn’t own making out with guys, I just don’t see the point of making it your whole fucking identity.
An exploration of post-uni David confronting some demons. And pegging. There’s pegging. We’re unsure if this needs a CW but just to be on the safe side: there’s descriptions of AFAB anatomy here. These are cis, queer characters. Katie invented Mandy for an aside in Mallorca, Te Amo. And, well, how predictable of us to have a big fat crush on our own OFC. This story is what happens when we exorcise the crack. Strap in!
Can be read standalone.

Fraternal by KitSaidOui for isto4u, KareliasKiss, henry_amargosa, Hopeless80sromantic
Fandoms: Heartstopper (Webcomic), Heartstopper (TV)
17 Jul 2023
Tags
Summary
Charlie and Olly Spring are fraternal twins that grow up in the suburbs of Colorado, recent graduates of a private Catholic school. Oliver is a swimmer, confident and ready to take on university; his brother on the other hand is still reeling from bullying and is not quite so ready. Naturally, this means they both end up as Buffalos, rooming together freshman year at the University of Colorado Boulder.
Enter Nick Nelson.
Who Olly sees first, just to set the record straight.
There are less self-assured layers beneath Oliver though, under the confident veneer, and strength in his brother he doesn't know exists.
All it takes is a Nelson (or two) to show him that.

Summary
David has surprised Olly with a trip to Buckland Farm Log Cabins in Taunton, Somerset. Far enough away from London that they can enjoy each other without being disturbed and basic enough that Olly can accept the gift of a few days in a cabin - let’s face it, David will be using the Wi-Fi to catch up on work anyway. After a long drive and a trip to the aptly named Otterhead Lakes, David and Olly return to Taunton to pick up some supplies for dinner.
All written from David POV.
